Balcony Hotel is an excellent choice for who wants to explore Firenze by foot. Close to the train station the hotel has a familiar environment and its owner Francesco is very friendly. He has treated us as we were someone from his family. The breakfast was very nice with fresh breads and the machine's capuccino was perfect. All of our... more

I was surprised and very please by this little hotel so close to the center of Florence. The pricing for the value was terrific. It was clean and well kept. The bathroom was good sized and well maintained. Our room was on the second floor and felt very safe and secure. The room was quiet and plenty warm enough at... more

Good and clean room, great breakfast, friendly staff and perfect location. My girlfriend and I would recommend this hotel to anyone. more

Spent 4 nights here in early October at 95 Euros per night for a double (twin). Got very quiet standard European-sized room in back. Room and common areas immaculate. Big pluses were hot water and water pressure, choices at breakfast, friendliness and helpfulness of staff, location (between Santa Maria Novella and Duomo; 300 meters from bus and train stations).

Even before our arrival, Francesco had been more than helpful in booking times for us at the Uffizi & Accadamia and from the time we checked in... more

I've been meaning to write this review for a few months now. I attended a conference in Florence last April and needed a reasonably priced hotel in the centre of the city. I found Hotel Balcony on Tripadvisor; the reviews looked good so I decided to stay there. I wasn't disappointed. The hotel is in a great location, near the... more

I'm a regular visitor to Firenze and have stayed in some pretty mediocre and overpriced hotels. So I've been looking for a place like this for a long time. A truly great little place to stay -- excellent location, clean and comfortable, and cheap as chips. The balcony is a terrific place to unwind and rest your feet and eat... more

My mother and I stayed at the hotel Balcony for five nights and have had a great time there. The rooms are perfectly okay and clean, big enough for two persons and the beds and pillows were excellent. Although the stairwells smelled a bit smokey sometimes, the rooms didn't. The owner of the hotel is very, very kind (and in... more
