Hotel is perfectly located on the Arno river near the Ponte Vecchio Bridge. Rooms are spacious and nicely furnished. Staff is exceptional. The manager, Massimo Fraus, demonstrates a true interest in his guests and their comfort--willing to go the extra mile. This attitude extends to all of the staff. My wife and I highly recommend this hotel and look forward... More

We stayed at the Hotel Berchielli for 4 nights, including New Years Eve. We had booked a deluxe river view room, and what a view! Room was very clean, and spacious. Staff were very helpful and polite, without being intrusive. Breakfast was included in the price, very large selection, great quality. Hotel is so close to everything, and there are... More

Location, location, location. This hotel has it. Just steps from the Arno River and the Ponte Vecchio bridge, and so close to everything. Our room, located on the inside of hotel overlooking the side alley, was spacious and comfortable, with a large balcony - every direction provided picturesque window boxes and shuttered Tuscan windows. Bathroom was also spacious and appears... More

We visited Florence mid October 2011 and, as usual, consulted trip advisor to help select our accommodation. Whilst it took us a while (and a noisy traipse across the city with our trolley suitcase) to get to the hotel, we were blown away with the location so close to Ponte Vecchio, and the Uffizi. Some elements of the hotel felt... More

We did not stay at the room facing the river, but our room is nice because It has a spacious balcony. The bathroom has... More

I always use tripadvisor as my bench mark and I am extremely disappointed that on this occasion I was let down. Although the location is superb, I had a dingy old room in the back of the hotel. It is exceptionally noisy, there is no natural light as it overlooks an alleyway and their is no extractor fan in the... More

My wife and I visited Florence in late September 2011. Our room in the hotel had two balconies overlooking the Arno River. If we looked one way we saw the Ponte Vecchio and the other way was the Michaelangelo bridge. At sunset we sat with a glass of wine and listened to live music from the ponte vecchio and the... More

I was prepared to be a little disappointed in this hotel given that it ranks in the mid teens in the tripadvisor ratings, but we loved it. We arrived at the hotel having abandoned our hire car a block away driving the wrong way up a one way street. The hotel can be a little difficult to get to since... More

Great location, easy to walk to everything including the train station. Reception was adaquate, room clean and roomy. upgraded to room with view for free. View was amazing! Breakfast was fantastic with sweet and savory items and hot and cold items. Only reason I mark it down is b/c the beds were uncomfortably hard..both my husband and I had stiff... More
