- Central location within walking distance of many of Florence's sights
- Riverside location
Hotel Berchielli is situated in one of the best locations in the city on the banks of the River Arno only moments away from the world famous Ponte Vecchio. Conveniently, Piazza della Signoria and the Uffizi Gallery are only a 5 minute walk away.
The hotel’s interiors are bright and spacious, decorated in an Art Deco style with stained-glass and marble in the public areas. A soft, neutral décor runs throughout the guest rooms, with recently renovated bathrooms adding a splash of colour.
Neighboured by antique shops and boutiques, the entrance of the hotel is virtually opposite Ponte Santa Trinità. Cross this bridge and continue down Via Maggio towards the artisan quarter of Santo Spirito, where there are some delightful bars and trattorias surrounding the church's piazza.
The Hotel Berchielli is well positioned for reaching the main attractions that lie both north and south of the River Arno, including Palazzo Pitti and its Giardino di Boboli.
The hotel has 76 rooms (official rating 4 star). Child prices apply to ages 2-11 years.

About the location
Holidays in Florence allow you to experience one of Europe’s most culturally and historically significant cities. Florence is a vibrant city nestled among the idyllic green hills of
Tuscany. It retains a sense of intimacy and romance thanks to its relatively small size, while also offering a remarkable selection of museums, galleries, and restaurants, which continue to impress even the most regular visitor. Every stroll has the potential for something remarkable, whether it’s peering out of the Vasari Corridor or wandering across the Giardino di Boboli. Alternatively, for those looking to relax, there are beautiful vistas to be seen while enjoying a rooftop aperitivi in the evening.
Perhaps most known for its remarkable historical architecture, you will easily find renowned pieces of art by famous artists such as Filippo Brunelleschi, Leon Battista Alberti, and Michelangelo throughout the city. Florence continues to celebrate this tradition with impressive modern buildings, notably The New Florence Opera House, maintaining the city’s reputation as a marvel from every angle. Any visiting foodies will undoubtedly revel in Florence’s food culture, from its seven Michelin starred restaurants to the brilliant bustle of the Mercato Centrale. For peaceful and romantic retreats, there are numerous opportunities for short trips to the surrounding landscapes and towns, allowing for blissful escapes into
Italy’s rural life.

My wife and I have stayed at the Berchielli many times over the last 25 years. Each time we have found the accommodation and the service have been of the highest quality. Most recently we spent 8 nights at the hotel the end of February. Once again we were not disappointed. As always, the staff including the General Manager were extremely welcoming, friendly and helpful.
There was some redecorating work going on during our visit, and the reception and bar were temporarily relocated, but this caused no inconvenience to us. Indeed we spent two evenings in the bar with friends and had a great time enjoying Tuscan wine.
We stayed in a room at the front with wonderful views of the Ponte Vecchio and the River Arno. It was spacious, very comfortable and maintained to a high standard.
This is the only place to stay in Florence and we can’t wait to return!

NOT a “4 Star” hotel. I got food poisoning from the Berchielli Hotel over the holidays. I had only eaten there the day & got very sick on the bus back from Pisa & for the next 5 hours. The worst part was how the manager treated me: he rudely argued & questioned my integrity. I’ve had both food poisoning & the flu before & know the difference. I have stayed in hotels across the world (most rated lower) & received much classier & appropriate treatment. I lost 1+ days out of 10 in Italy due to this & then had to fly back to the U.S.! Also, it is under construction & the temp lobby is not “4 Star” either. Avoid the Berchielli if you want a positive experience!

The river view rooms are large, with unsurpassed views of the river. There is not any better possible location than mere steps from the Ponte Vecchio, and within easy walking distance of all museums and a huge selection of excellent restaurants. The staff was efficient, helpful. and made some excellent restaurant recommendations.
