Hotel Helvetia & Bristol

My stay at the Helvetia & Bristol was truly unforgettable. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with impeccable hospitality and genuine warmth. The hotel itself is a masterpiece — a perfect balance of timeless elegance and modern comfort. My room was beautifully appointed, with exquisite attention to detail and a serene atmosphere that made me feel instantly at home. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and every amenity was thoughtfully provided. Breakfast was a delight each morning — fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every moment of my stay was perfect, always attentive yet discreet. The location couldn’t be better — right in the heart of Florence, just steps away from the Duomo and the city’s most iconic landmarks, yet peaceful enough to feel like a private retreat. I left the Helvetia & Bristol with a full heart and the firm intention to return. It’s more than just a hotel — it’s an experience of true Florentine elegance and hospitality.

An amazing city hotel! Junior suite was enormous, with a walk-in closet and great amenities. Restaurants and bar are very stylish, great food and service too. Roman baths are incredible, very relaxing! Very helpful concierge and front desk, excellent service. Close to all sites and you're in the heart of luxury shopping. An easy choice!

Great location with very nice, although rather small rooms. Photos on the website were accurate compared to the room we received. Breakfast staff were very helpful and accommodating. This is withing walking distance (although we walked a lot) of most everything in Florence

We happened to walk by the hotel. We sat inside, a beautiful room, and a beautiful hotel! lunch was absolutely superb. Very very friendly staff !! Our server Ornelo , was especially delightful and attentive. If you want to get away from the crowds and enjoy a relaxing lunch, this is one of those places!

From check in to check out the hotel was amazing! We had emailed the concierge ahead of time for dinner reservations and special trip plans. All was done without issue. He was really helpful and had great suggestions. The location is great. Really can walk to every location. The staff was incredible. They are all very friendly and helpful. Usually can give a shout out to a single person who went above and beyond but the whole staff were incredible across the board! The rooms were great. Truly wonderful stay! Highest recommendations!
