GoodNov 20107.7
The staff was always extremely helpful and fluent in several languages; the location on the Arno River just steps from the Ponte Vecchio was unbeatable; and the wonderful complimentary breakfast buffet every morning started my days off well. I can't wait to go back!

Hotel Balestri is conveniently located, very close to Uffizi Galleries, Ponte Vecchie, Museo Galileo, and many other attractions. It was very clean and the front desk staff were very helpful and attentive.
The hotel doesn't have a bar, per se, but will serve customers from a limited alcohol menu.

GoodNov 20106.3
The hotel's location is excellent. You can walk to most of the popular tourist attractions. The breakfast was good and the breakfast room was pleasant.
The only thing unpleasant, was the room freshner smell. Opening the windows helped temporarily.

Staff were excellent - helpful, and charming. Location was superb, right next to the Uffizi gallery, and on the banks of the river. I liked the charm of the foyer area and the no-nonsense but well appointed facilites. I would definitely use the hotel again.
A little more attention to lighting in the room (bulb not replaced, for example), plus non-slip shower flooring would reassure.
