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."

Michelin Guide "Situated in the historic centre... Elegant."
Frommer's "There's a certain old-world elegance, reminiscent of an English country manor, to the richly decorated common rooms and the gravel-strewn garden of this 14th-century palazzo." Full review
Fodor's "Though some rooms are small, they are tasteful, and best of all, housed in a 15th-century palazzo that retains some of its wood-coffered ceilings from the 1500s." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Housed in a 15th-century palazzo that was originally a convent, Hotel Monna Lisais located in the city's Piazza Della Signoria." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Close to Santa Croce, the hotel is in a 14th-century palazzo with terracotta floors, white stucco walls and pietra serena (a type of Italian sandstone) detailing."
Star Service "One of the most popular and least expensive choices in town for those whose fantasies run to sleeping and relaxing in an eccentric residential-style dwelling." Full review
