La Lama Hotel Accommodation

"We loved everything about our stay at Hotel Balestri. The location right by the Arno River was a quick, easy (flat) walk to every major museum and attraction in Florence. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the shower water pressure was very strong. We started every morning in their amazing continental breakfast room and ended almost every night in the lively and festive cocktail bar. Staff was warm, welcoming, "

"Fantastic location, walking distance to all the main sights of Florence, ranging from 3 to just 20 plus minutes. Yet it’s inside a quiet, safe street, but upon walking out we’re hit with tons of highly rated sandwich shops, restaurants and so on. Room is impeccably clean, beds are comfortable, toilet and shower are so spacious! Staff are also friendly and helpful, welcoming us warmly, always being on hand to respond to our queries, even booking a taxi for us to the train station on the last day. Just wish the room was a bit more spacious, and that they gave us a change of towels. The towel change occurs after 3 nights, but even though we had gone 3 nights without a change (we stayed 4 nights) and messaged one of the staff to help us with that, the staff said he would change it for us but it didn’t happen. Small hiccup but other than that everything was wonderful."

"Shuttle service convenient. Lovely staff. "

"Staff is very kind."

"Clean room and friendly staff."

"Very good"

"What a fun way to stay! Glamping tent is very clean, roomy, and in like-new condition. Maybe a bit cold for winter, but has heating. The tent material makes vibrations on a windy night. Has supermarket within campus (good price!) but closes early at 8pm. Restaurant/bar is exceptional. Front desk staff very helpful and friendly. Bus route 14 to central Florence is immediately outside the gate, takes 30+ minutes, and is seldom on schedule. Otherwise, walk 10 minutes to nearby train station and take 10 minutes train to Florence station."

"Overall: 9/10. Location: 8/10; Amenities: 10/10; Communication: 10/10 Well-appointed apartment with kitchen facilities. I would have appreciated a basic chair, but my spouse really enjoyed the spa lounger! There were bar-style chairs. We didn’t avail of the spa facilities but those that do would find that a big bonus. Kitchen facilities were great. Well located in a quiet neighborhood with access to the bus service and nearby Tabacchi shops to buy bus tickets. We were given fresh towels and coffee every day, and our room was tidied up. There’s also a Coop grocery store nearby. Would definitely recommend!"
