No so comfortable beds (felt the springs all... more

We had a very enjoyable ten-day stay at the Balcony Hotel in June. The hotel is close to the Duomo (three blocks), making it easy to explore the city on foot. This central location also allows one to take a nice afternoon break from sightseeing and have a drink on their pleasant roof patio. Coffee and tea are complimentary and... more

Really liked this hotel. Central location, comfortable and clean room with an air conditioner, friendly and helpful stuff. It had everything I needed. I booked it directly from the hotel site and the price was lower than on all booking sites. more

Good points: -Very close to cenrtal Firenze! walking distance from many major places! -Fairely affordable for a single traveler in one of the most expensive sightseeing places! (note that unlike the USA, hotels in Europe are rediculously expensive for what you pay most of the time. This hotel is to me very cheap considering the location) -Nice view of the... more

Just got back from Florence after staying 3 nights at the Balcony, I must agree with the other coments..You can't get better for the price! Continental style breakfast with plenty choice and as much as you want. The room service was very efficient. The bed was very comfortable (even if it was not a spring bed .)The room faced on... more

I'm not sure how to describe our experience with HB. We were given a room with a "view" but the room was so loud from the street noise we asked for another. The old man behind the counter and the old cleaning lady ensued to yell at each other over our request in Italian for about five minutes concluding by... more

Stayed here for two nights. While the location is pretty good and close to the sights, we found the hotel to be just ok. The rooms were a little dark and dingy, and the front desk wasn't the most friendly. And, the computer was out of order so there was no connection to the Internet. There was a nice balcony... more

Stayed at Hotel Balcony for 3 nights. Francesco & wife (i think) were very friendly & helpful. Breakfast was good. Room & bathroom were spacious & clean. Walking distance to main train station & major sights. Convenient & quiet location. Just wished there were tea making facilities in the room. Although you can get hot water from the breakfast area... more

I found Hotel Balcony to be exactly as it is described by past tripadvisor reviewers. It is more than adequate, more clean than dingy, and Dominico the manager was friendly. They have a computer for guests but it seemed permanently out of service. The location can't be beat. It was quiet enough, and the big balcony was a nice place... more

The hotel is a short walk from the main (Santa Maria Novella) train station. We were warmly greeted by Francesco who proved to be the perfect host. He was attentive to our needs, knowledgeable about his native Florence and very humorous. His dining recommendations were outstanding! I stayed with my sister and her daughter in a triple room with a... more
