Bellevue House is an older, delightfully authentic hotel that is conveniently situated close to the train station, local restaurants, and shops and is within easy walking distance of most of Florence's main attractions and museums. The owners, Luciano and Susan, were outstanding hosts! Kind, informative, and engaging. We needed a room with three beds, and they accommodated us with a lovely, comfortable stay. They have an elevator (note that it is a small one to two-person elevator), which is a plus for luggage, and there are stairs for traveling up and down if needed. If you are looking for a quaint, authentic, historical place to stay, this is one that makes you feel like a local. I prefer to live in the culture, and Luciano and Susan provided this experience. I'd stay there again.

Luciano was the best hotelier I have ever come across. He introduced the building, a little of its history and gave us an introduction to our room. He made sure we knew where to go for dinner (3 options) and how to find our way around Florence. The room was older but clean and in a building 500 years old. The elevator is to be experienced.

The rooms were a little tired but nothing more than a coat of paint is needed It would be good to have milk available for tea/coffee.

Mr. Luciano is a wonderful host and very friendly and helpful! The room is quite spacious and has a historic vibe which makes it more appealing! The location is great, 10 minutes to the Duomo, and 10 to the main train station. Beds are comfortable, there’s a water kettle in the room, and a fridge and AC, and a small lift. Would definitely stay there again :)

The toiletries were not replaced, or the towels, and the cups and plates were not washed on daily basis, but maybe we needed to ask for that.

The location was very good, while Mr. Luciano was very - very much helpful and supportive to visit Florence, restaurants, museums. It is a place I would recommend somebody to stay. Plus is also the elevator, since when you have many luggage it is impossible to use the stairs.

Nothing negative to comment ; Mr. Luciano has put effort to renovate the rooms and the whole place.

Well located very close to the main station, car hire companies and walking distance to the main fights of Firenze. It’s an old building but all functions well. The owner is lovely, extremely helpful and kind. The beds were comfortable, it worked very well for us.

It’s old fashioned which wouldn’t be to everyone’s taste but we liked it’s quaint layout and the traditional styling. It had all we needed.

Check-in was from 13:00, but I arrived at 12:00 and had a large luggage, so I asked if I could just leave my luggage, and they kindly accepted. He carefully explained the facilities of the hotel. I think that it is very close to the station and very easy to use.

The elevator is very small and very slow as they are adding an elevator to the old building. Luggage can use the elevator, but people move up the stairs.

In one of the most spacious room I had so far in Italy (even had a couch) where host was the most welcoming and accommodating to his charming house. Was very helpful and knowledgeable of all there is to see and do in Florence. The place is very well located near to most of what Florence has to offer. One of the few places to higher floor with an elevator even if stairs are very wide and quite convenient to use but when you arrive with heavy luggage in middle of summer.....

Excellent location, great amenities, owners so lovely and helpful, walking distance to so much + so central, big rooms, great facilities! Owners also so lovely giving suggestions of things to do and places to see, as well as helping us arrange an early morning airport taxi pick up (and being with us at 4am to get the taxi!)! A wonderful stay in a wonderful property!

Luciano made our stay in Florence very special. The accommodations were perfect and his recommendations on restaurants and places to visit were excellent. He went out of his way to make sure our time in Florence was memorable. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again. This was the best hotel we stayed in during our trip to Italy.

The place was right across the Officina Profumo and just a few steps away from the train station and the Santa Maria Novella Church. Brilliant location in a historic building. We were also assigned to one of the rooms named Manila which was a spacious room with a nice view.
