Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This place is literally in the shadow of the Duomo and everything seemed to be within a 5-10 minute walk. I really like how there was a front desk with very, very helpful, nice, accommodating people. The room was perfect for 3 adults and 1 teen. It felt much bigger than anticipated due to the high ceilings. The air conditioning was the best we had in all the places we stayed in Italy. I would stay here again when visiting Florence.

I was very pleasantly impressed. The best thing about the stay was the parking garage option. It was a few minutes walk and cost us 30 euros for 24 hours. We got the room with the attached bathroom which was perfect for our family of 5. The staff at the reception was very polite and helpful.

Overall stay was good. In a brilliant location, so close to the Duomo and only 10 mins walk from the train station. Room was a good size and clean, and had tea/coffee making facilities. However, it was not mentioned that there are no lifts, and we had to carry our suitcases up 82 steps to our room.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
The most important aspect of this property is the convenience and location. It is walking distance from the train station, walking distance from the Duomo, walking distance from the Uffizi and essentially all of the sights of Florence. The rooms are safe, clean, and the check in process was convenient. It seems to be a home converted into a hotel, essentially a guest house. The lobby is a living room, there isn't 24 hour front desk service, we had an early train and left our keys with a note on the counter. The bathroom is cramped and oddly shaped but you do get a clean, safe, extremely convenient room with very high ceilings.

Pros: Amazing AC Location is unbeatable Comfortable bed Daily bed making/housekeeping Lots of outlets to charge electronics Room was large-we got the one with the balcony Cons: The noise of neighbors slamming doors and turning keys from 10pm-12am and 6:30-8am every day. Sleep was hard to come by The pillows on the bed were flat as pancakes, but the bed was so soft and that AC, man it was amazing! THE 84 stair climb to our room, a rough go with 50pds of luggage, but it was a great spot!-and so worth it!

My wife and I have a wonderful experience in Florence and stay in Guest House Bel Duomo, the location is super convenient, bed comfortable, the building a little old, we were in the four floor and didn’t have elevator but wasn’t a problem, we had our own bathroom but outside our room, with our own key to access, I never experienced that before but it was ok. Super safe area, nice staff and once again, the location literally next to the Florence Duomo is unbeatable.
