Soggiorno Pitti is situated opposite Palazzo Pitti where visitors like to sit down on the huge crescent shaped paved area in front of the magnificent Palace, and soak up the sun and the beautiful architecture of this fascinating part of Florence. There are small shops, restaurants, bars and artisan studios in the nearby, and the area is extremely safe, so visitors can enjoy an evening stroll along the river or just to the Ponte Vecchio (less than 5 minutes walk away) at any time of the day or night.
