Rated #34 for all Florence hotels 
 
The hotel is perfectly situated on the Lungarno, the road that runs parallel to the Arno river. It is within short walking distance of everything: Ponte Vecchio, Uffizi gallery, Piazza della Signoria, Piazza santa croce, etc. The rooms are adequate and clean with modern bathrooms (hot water was always hot and water pressure excellent). The beds are comfortable and the windows open (they also have air con). The TV doesn't have many channels, but who wants to watch tv in Florence anyway! The staff were always cordial and professional, but also a bit distant and cold. The breakfast offered is not...

The hotel is perfectly situated on the Lungarno, the road that runs parallel to the Arno river. It is within short walking distance of everything: Ponte Vecchio, Uffizi gallery, Piazza della Signoria, Piazza santa croce, etc. The rooms are adequate and clean with modern bathrooms (hot water was always hot and water pressure excellent). The beds are comfortable and the windows open (they also have air con). The TV doesn't have many channels, but who wants to watch tv in Florence anyway! The staff were always cordial and professional, but also a bit distant and cold. The breakfast offered is not extensive, but has good coffee along with yogurt, bread, pastries, etc. We had the option of also having an American breakfast (with cooked eggs), but didn't ever order it. The view from the hotel window over the Arno to Ponte Vecchio in the near distance was fantastic. Overall we found that the Balestri was good value for money and a great choice if you are looking for a small, clean, professional hotel with reasonable prices.
