The House Judiciary Committee conducts the formal inquiry into whether the president should be impeached. Based on their findings that recommend to the full house to impeach or not to impeach and submit the Articles of Impeachment ot the full house. The full house debates each article of impeachment and votes on each as to whether or not to impeach the president. If a simple majority votes to impeach the president on any or all of the articles of impeachment, the president will be "impeached." However, it is the senate who tries the president.

Is it true that impeachment hearings of the president can only start in the Senate?
It starts there and it ends there. Impeachment is the part of the process that is done by the House. Think of impeachment as officially calling into question some behavior of a sitting president. If impeached by the House, the president then goes through an impeachment trial by the Senate. Even if the Senate chooses to acquit, the president has still officially been impeached. There is a rough parallel with civil law. You can be indicted of a crime, and then be found not guilty at trial. But you can never say that you were not indicted.
