The Hotel Balestri was the perfect place for me to stay while visiting my daughter during her semester of study abroad in Florence. The location was ideal, as it was just a few blocks from her apartment (which is a block from the Santa Croce) and a couple of blocks from her school (which is next to the Ufizi Museum and a block from the Ponte Vecchio. […] The Hotel is right on the Arno and I had a lovely balcony with a wonderful view. The breakfast was very large with a wonderful assortment of pastries, fruit and meats and cheeses. The hotel staff was curteous and helpful. For a European three star hotel I give it five stars!

I found the room very basic and would not have rated this as a superb room. Room service finished earlier than the time stated.

Close to many Florence attractions. Aloof desk clerks. Had to search for the bar. Definitely didn't feel very welcomed.Wi-fi horrible.

The room was very clean, but I expected a bit more of the hotel in this price range - the room was very boring and the furniture was not fantastic in the room. I would also note that the bed was very, very hard.

The hotel rooms are FILTHY. There were many layers of gunk on the night stands, the walls were scary filthy. Black marks all over the walls. The staff is exceedingly rude, failing to realize that the patrons of the hotel are the ones who are making their paychecks possible. The wifi that they say they have is inaccessible. Breakfast was ok, but again […] the waitstaff in the dining room was annoyed with your presence. The location is pretty good as far as walking to downtown, but you would have a more enjoyable experience at another hotel Devamı

Clean, comfortable room. Good breakfast included. Excellent location, near all downtown sights. Parking costly, but then a car in Florence is not very useful (too hard to navigate in town unless you are a native) --walking is far preferable.

Hotel in perfect position in order for you to explore Florence. Staff are charming, and helpful. All in all a very pleasant experience!

Hello, We were on vacation one night on the way from Verona to Rome. Hotel very low level, in which a very famous site distant to what in practice. There is a lot of dirt (dirty walls, bedding smelling bad) horrible green colored which mentions a hospital bathroom has a strong smell of bleach, bathroom very old fashioned green as it once was. We were […] there two rooms we and another couple, the situation was similar in the two rooms. In short stay away. Devamı

We have stayed here 5 times and love it as much as the first time. The location puts you within minutes of everything and the views are fabulous. The staff is so helpful and breakfast is a joy. The rooms are spacious and well appointed.

we booked several rooms, only those on the 5th floor were updated and nice. The lower floors are very outdated and hallways in need of paint etc. Front desk was great and overall a good experience but book one of the few rooms on the top floor.

The room was a lot older than expected and the breakfast was very simple. Everything else was good or ok. Nothing to truly rave about.

Fortunate to have a room with a balcony. Beautiful view over the Arno.

Everything was positive except the bathtub/shower was quite narrow and slippery. Also some advice for future travelers. If coming from the Santa Maria novella train station to this hotel, don't take the bus. It will take you over an hour with endless stops on a crowded bus with your luggage. We learned this the hard way. It's only a couple of miles […] in a taxi and only cost 12 euros. Well worth it. This is coming from a very frugal traveler. Devamı

Beautifully located on the River not far from the major attractions. Front desk staff were fantastic in helping us book tickets for the museums and tours. And gave great directions. Very friendly and helpful. Always a hello and smile.

Initial room I was offered was spacioua but very unattractive and barebones, desperately needed to be decorated. However, next room was pretty, comfortable, quiet considering location. Hotel was really pleasant,fabulous location , good rates, helpful staff. Would definitely return.

This hotel is in a wonderful location. Don't worry that it seems difficult to get to from the train terminal. The buses can't go through the center of town. Just jump in a taxi and pay about ten euros to get to the front door with two bags in the trunk. You will ride right through the center of the old city. You can walk it in 20 minutes. Once there, […] walking in any direction puts you in front of shops, restaurants, and major sites. It's right near Uffizi and Ponte Vecchio. There are nearby restaurants that are fantastic - tourist friendly without the tourist crowds. It's an old building and it's not perfect. It is a historic city in Italy. Be ready for all the fun of an Italian hotel room. The people are wonderful and the place is secure. I don't believe you could beat this location, either. Be sure to visit Trattoria da Benvenuto up the street. Trattoria Anita is a hidden gem. The brothers who run the place are very cool. The food is fantastic, as well as the service. Angie's Bar, just to the left of Benvenuto is a cool place to hang out for a drink til late. Low on tourists, high on character. Devamı

This hotel was not easy to find, but well worth the trouble. They could not do enough for us and made us feel like very special guests. Other guests we spoke to, said the same. We would recommend this hotel to anybody and we would go back there in a heartbeat. Ten out ten!

Very pleasant. Thank goodness for air con.! Overlooking the Arno. Very central.

My stay was ok. The hotel must spend some money in renovation. It is a pity that a hotel with big rooms and soooo close to the Ponte Vecchio and Palazzo Uffizzi has so ugly and unconfortable rooms. The sheets and towels were clean but the walls, floors and bedspread looked dirty. The reception area gives a false impression of what is waiting for you […] behind doors. The hallway to the rooms make you think: what am I doing here? If they renovate the rooms and bathroom, I will be back. If not, I will be staying somewhere else... Devamı

The best view of the river, just next to uffizi gallery, walking distance from local market for grocery. Excellant customer service. Sabira at the breakfast place was really nice, my daughter(3 yrs) enjoyed a lot talking to her.

I got the balcony view and thats what made my two days from good to awesome!!would totally stay there again with the balcony view.

The hotel, though dated, is clean and in a very good location. It overlooks a busy road but the rooms are well soundproofed from the outside. The staff were great and recommended some excellent restaurants nearby which helped us avoid the tourist traps.

This hotel was perfectly located for all the main sights in Florence city centre. Just a short walk to Ponte Vecchio and the Duomo. Situated on a quiet Piazza next to the River Arno. We found the hotel clean and comfortable and the room was air-conditioned which was necessary in August! Staff were courteous and helpful. There was a wide selection at […] the breakfast buffet - cooked breakfast available at extra cost. Downside was the costly car parking - euros 35 for 24 hours. Devamı

A charming little hotel in a convenient location. Our room was huge with a living area but even with 4 windows, it was very dark. Brighter lights are a definite must and needs some warmth (pictures, carpet). The lobby, sitting area and breakfast room was lovely and the complimentary breakfast was good. I didn't find the workers to be friendly at all […] at the reception or at breakfast. If you have a car, find somewhere else to park because the charge 35 euros a day!! We were quite upset because we thought parking was included. What upset of even more was that we had to wait 1/2 hour for our car to come because they park it somewhere else. When I complained to the gentleman at the reception saying he should have told us when we checked in about this, he just brushed us off. We made sure we asked for the car the day we were leaving an hour in advance. Devamı

Excellent location close to the centre of Florence and overlooking the river Arno. Pleasant and very helpful staff. Spotlessly clean room with small balcony and excellent buffet breakfast.

Wonderful, helpful staff beautiful room with a great view, within walking distance to many great sights. I would certainly stay here again when I return to Florence.

Great location by the river (great view from our room!). Short walk to major tourist attractions (Uffizi Gallery is a block away), but at the same time just a little bit out of the way so that it is not crowded with tourists and street vendors.

Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu

We had a wonderful overnight stay in Florence. Our hotel room overlooked the river which was perfect. Very welcoming reception staff, paticularly Eleanor who was extremely helpful. I would recommend this hotel to anyone as it is a perfect location to stroll to all the main areas of Florence, including restaurants. Loved it! Thank you.

The location is fantastic. We walked everywhere we needed to go. The rooms are clean. The service is good. The front desk staff helped us book two different tours. It was also a fair price.

THE VIEW, THE LOCATION, THE VIEW and THE LOCATION is what the Hotel Balestri is all about. This place has an unbelievable spot right on the Arno River facing Oltrarno and literally a stone throw from the Ponte Vecchio. A 2 minute walk takes you to the Uffizi and a 5 minute walk takes you to Il Duomo the world renown Brunelleschi structure. The staff […] is hard working, extremely friendly and helpful and they have a high tolerance for non Italian speakers. The continental breakfast is all you need to begin your day and enough for you to make it until dinner. What else can I say? Florence is the best international city I've ever been to and the Hotel Balestri made it all affordable. Devamı

Nice hotel on the bank of the Arno with friendly, helpful staff. We had room 111 it was at the back of the hotel but it had a balcony. An extensive continential breakfast was served, hot food was also available at an extra charge. It's a few minutes walk to the Uffizi gallery/Ponte Vecchio. It's a 20 minute walk to the station, but there is a town bus […] "D" that stops just across the bridge from the hotel. Devamı

We stayed at this hotel several times in the past and are still pleased with it. The food has actually improved!

Hotel location and river and rooftop views were all we expected. We were there for 30th April ( Notte Bianca). This Florence-wide street party includes a band in the local piazza, and all-night revellers on the banks of the Arno outside. Join in the fun, but don't count on getting any sleep. It won't matter - all the galleries and museums are closed […] for Labour Day on May 1st! Devamı

Great hotel with friendly staff and almost perfect location by the river. Rooms are smaller (typical for most European cities). A lot of the 4th floor rooms have quaint little balconies overlooking the river. The staff are extremely helpful, even with middle-of-the-night requests.

Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu

The hotel was wonderful. We had a balcony overlooking the river. Within walking distance of the central part of the city. Would highly reccommend the hotel.

Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu

Nice location but rooms had a musty, mouldy smell. Spacious rooms but the musty stale smell was a problem. Air conditioning was rather noisy.

Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu

Centrally located, substantial breakfast, staff has good suggestions for dining. Very pleasant atmosphere which is not overdone. Inexpensive wifi service. Very easy access to Oltrarno if you don't want to battle the crowds and traffic around Ponte Vecchio each time

Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu

Great hotel, perfectly placed for all main tourist sites. Try and get a room with a river view as it's beautiful. Good breakfasts and the only downside I found was that the beds are rather hard.

Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu

Very convenient location and great deal for the price! Rooms are a bit tired and beds just acceptable in comfort.

Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu

This hotel was really great. From the location to the price to the breakfast. It was recommended to us and I would recommend it to someone else. The beds were just a little stiff. Other than that, give it a go...

We stayed 4 nights in the hotel. The staff is very kind and helpful. Rooms are clean, but could use some new paint. Big tiled bathroom. Comfortable temperature even if it was cold outside.

This hotel is a 3 star as stated, the worst thing was the odour outside the room and then in the room, possibly sewerage. However you did seem to get used to it. It was in the breakfast room when they first opened also. Bathroom was very clean, bed quilt looked stained, walls need a good paint and the room was generally small (not unusual in Italy) […] but we did pay for the 'superior double'. Breakfast buffet was good, usual Italian breaky. Location great just down from Ponte Vecchio, 5/10 min walking distance to main centre, Wifi was 5E a day and very hard to pick up on my iphone, but did eventually. Little bit of updating room furniture needed and the floor is tile, not great in winter. Devamı
