8.9(2631)4/10 Nice location but…the mosquitos were more hospitable than the front desk.
Place has old school hotel charm. Keys are hard keys from key boxes behind the front desk. If you like the feel of holding a door knob in your pocket all day while you’re out and about this is the place for you. Traveling with a large family and Florence being the second stop of a rather long trip I utilized their laundry service. I called the night before and they assured me the laundry would be picked up and sent out the next morning and back the same day in the late evening. I even called again around 6:30 am to confirm and was given the option of dropping the laundry off at the front desk but was assured once again, it would get picked up.
Fast forward to 11pm that evening and nothing was returned. I went to the front desk to follow and the proud ‘ol front desk agent kept questioning over and over to see if I was sure and each time I said I was positive. He gave me a look like I was the one mistaken and crazy. His reply was to the effect “I don’t know what to tell you, I was certain the laundry went out and I received all the returned cleaned laundry and your laundry was not with it”. Apology and customer care check- none what so ever. I explained I called the night before and followed up at 6:30 am that morning and was reassured I’d get it back that day. He again said I don’t know what to tell you and said I can check back the next day in the morning- essentially passing on the problem.
I received a call from the front desk maybe 10 minutes later and was “notified” they found out what the problem was and continued to insinuate I didn’t call in time for the in the day service. Apology and customer care check opportunity 2- none whatsoever. I lost it. All sarcasm was unleashed. I explained they had no accountability continued to blame me. Some ownership in the slightest form would have gone a long way. I simply said, “apology accepted” and ended the call. I went straight downstairs to the front desk to have a face to face and he tried to blame the outside laundry service. I asked how it was their fault and they then blamed the housekeeping service responsible for the pick up. I asked for them to just give my laundry back and that’s when he told me it was out with the cleaners.
I felt I was having a conversation with my teenage kids about owning mistakes and having a sense of accountability. What is sad is this property starts and ends at the front desk but so far everything in between has been pretty good (except for the electricity tripping overnight. I am really enjoying Florence, the food, and (most) people. A simple apology and maybe some understanding would have gone miles and miles. Not enough to ruin the trip but enough to ruin the stay. Side note- no ac in early March and the rims get warm if you don’t open the windows. Lots of loud noise and mosquitos. I think I saw more than six once the electricity was flipped back on. Each room has its own independent fuse box….

9/10 Comfort, convenience and great location.
We were very happy with this hotel: the beds were very comfortable, the room spacious, very clean (thank you maids!), and quiet. We sprung for the river view room and it did not disappoint. A great location! Easy walking distance to many things. Although the area limits car traffic for many locaitons, taxis were able to drop and pick us up at a back entrance off the lobby. Very convenient. Another plus: if you ended up walking for hours as I did, it is nice to know you can take a cab back if you want to. January was a little cold and rainy, but the tradeoff was a very lovely, much quieter historic district. Sometimes we had wonderful streets almost to ourselves, and restaurnants usually had an available table. What a great time to explore and what a great location for doing it! rWhen we didn't want to go out, we4 were able to get food and drink in the building, and just sit and enjoy our view! A great value for the price. Will be staying there again and recommending the Hotel Berchielli to friends.

10/10 We loved having this cute hotel as our home base for the eight days we explored Florence.
Everything went well, from our pre-arranged pickup at the airport, to finding a great room right on the Arno with great views, to the super breakfast with a variety of quality offerings, it all went very well. I think the best part was the location. We were a few minutes from nearly all the sites. We did almost everything on foot and it was easy, even for an old guy with bad knees! We found two little restaurants within a 5 minute walking radius that were friendly and affordable, plus a supermarket with anything a traveler could want, including a very decent wine selection. I wish we could say we had personally discovered this super little hotel, but we were traveling with friends who has stayed here three times in past years and we were lucky enough to have such friends. They will be back and so will we!

9/10 Fantastic place with memories to last for a long-long time.
1. Excellent Location impossible to beat. Right in the historical center of Florence, on the bank of river Arno next to the amazing bridge of the renaissance times.
2. While the hotel is created from joining three separate palazzos of 16th century, it was tastefully remodeled multiple times and has both historical charm and all modern amenities. "Art Nuovo" interior is a wonderful stroke of a masterpiece.
3. Customer service is at its best. You are being treated as a royalty.
4. Rooms are spacious and have everything you'd need for your stay.

10/10 A fantastic experience
What a beautiful Hotel this is. We visited to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and this place made it unforgettable.
The hotel is beautifully decorated with works of art around every corner, be they paintings, ceramics or glass. It has style and old school class.
The staff could not have been more helpful, nothing is too much trouble for them and they do it with a smile. They are turned out beautifully to which adds to the stylish feel of the place.
The continental breakfast buffet is amazing. Every offering is fresh and constantly replenished throughout the service. You will want for nothing!
I can’t praise the place highly enough.
The wonders of the city are on the doorstep so you can immerse yourself in everything that this wonderful city has to offer.

10/10 Hands down the BEST hotel we have ever stayed in!!!!!
The staff always greeted us with a smile and were extremely helpful. No request was too big or too small. We stayed here 18 months ago and literally rearranged our entire holiday when the days we wanted were not available. The room is fully equipped with all things you might need and the view of the river from our room was simple amazingly. The breakfast buffet is incredible. There are so many choices and it is top quality. They made us cappuccino’s every morning and personalized them (see photo).

9/10 Beautiful hotel and staff here in Firenza!
The location was absolutely 💯 unbeatable! Perfecto! Walkable! The noise level at night and early am were loud is my sole complaint. The BF offerings were the best, including everything you could wish for and more! The BF staff were 👏 amazing and so hospitable! Roberto was a favorite and Massimo at the front desk! The gentleman at the bar was very kind and helpful as well. We enjoyed our stay here and can recommend it to future travelers exploring this beautiful city and all it has to offer, Thank-you Hotel Berchielli!

10/10 Excellent hotel
A perfect hotel for our four-day stay in Florence.
We booked a “room with a view” & had a beautiful classical room with two windows overlooking the Arno. It’s between the Ponte Vecchio & the Ponte Santa Trinita.
The reception staff were very helpful & friendly.
The dining room & breakfast food were outstanding. The staff there were efficient & friendly.
The room cleaner was outstanding. We had everything replaced daily & it was spotless. We felt like royalty.

9/10 Superb location with an excellent view
The perfect location. We had the river-view room with balcony. It was quite in the room with the balcony doors closed.
The hotel couldn't be better positioned. All the major sites are within walking distance. The breakfast staff were very friendly.

10/10 Perfect Stay in the Heart of It All
The location was absolutely perfect—right in the heart of everything and within walking distance to all the main attractions. It made exploring so easy! The breakfast was amazing, with a delicious spread that had something for everyone, from fresh pastries to hearty options. The staff were super friendly and always ready to help, which made the stay even better. It's definitely a place I’d recommend!

9/10 Super hôtel with an old fashioned charm.
The hotel has an old fashioned charm. Situated on the Arno river. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Our room was spotlessly clean as is everywhere in the hotel. We were upgraded to a nice duplex room with 2 bathrooms. If you want a view of the river you need to book a room with a view.

8/10 Lovely hotel in historic Florence
I was upgraded to a better room with the view of Arno river. Great bed, a choice of pillows, nice bathroom with a bath and a bidet. Good breakfast, they even write you name on your morning cappuccino. Central location, quiet (in January). I was able to pay cash which was also a bonus.
KseniaFeb 11, 2025
10/10 perfect location and ambience and facilities for central Florence
a room over the Arno is special - like a movie set (like being over the Grand Canal in Venice)
breakfast excellent choices and freshness - very, very good
front desk pleasant and efficient - printed our boarding passes and Uffizi tickets instantly
invisible from the exterior - spacious and clean and bright interior

10/10 Perfect location, highly recommended.
Great location near ponte vecchio, and main sites all walking distance. Staff all helpful, rooms and bathrooms were a good size with comfortable beds. Everywhere is selflessly clean and decor impressive. The coffee was the best we had during our stay and breakfast (choices) was exceptional. Had scrambled eggs with salmon every day.

I have experienced in stay on many hotels in different countries but this classic hotel is excellent.
Almost everythings.
For example, Yesterday, we needed to leave the hotel at early morning and we had not time to eat breakfast, They offer us a breakfast box for eating on the tour bus!
Some days our rom cleaned twice a day!

10/10 Would happily come back
Very nice in every respect. Old-fashioned but that’s part of its appeal, and quick walk to all the sites. View of the Ponte Vecchio from our riverside room. Inevitably a little noisy at night, given its position, but a price worth paying. Simple but plentiful breakfast and lovely staff. Would happily stay again.
