Frommer's "This old-fashioned pensione in a 1507 palazzo just off the river charges little for its simple comfort and kind hospitality. The rooms differ greatly in size and style." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Located on the second and third floors of a 16th-century building, this central hotel, with its vaulted ceilings, retains an aura of grandeur."
Rough Guide "An unpretentious and very good two-star with 27 rooms [nearly all with bathroom] occupying a sixteenth-century palazzo and furnished in a mixture of antique and modern styles."
Fodor's "An aura of grandeur pervades these clean, ample rooms a block from the Ponte Vecchio." Full review

Michelin Guide "Simple yet elegant... It has a magical, fairy tale atmosphere."
Frommer's "With its echoey halls, airy loggias, and imposing stone staircases, the Bellosguardo feels just a few flickering torches shy of the Middle Ages -- exactly its attraction." Full review
Fodor's "Bellosguardo means "beautiful view"; given the view of Florence you get here, the name is fitting." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Situated atop the hill of Bellosguardo, this distinctive hotel is housed in a Renaissance-era villa built around a 14th-century tower." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Far from the crowds, but with the city at its feet, the views from the 16th-century tower of this 14th-century villa are unparalleled."
Rough Guide "Its not central - its perched on a hill about 2km from the heart of Oltrarno - but the four-star Bellosguardo is one of the most beautiful hotels in the city."

Lonely Planet "Time travel to old-world Tuscany at this romantic villa aplomb a hill on the city fringe." Full review
