Wonderful view from the room. It was an easy walk from the train station and then to the leaning tower. The wood floors were... interesting. Definitely needed to wear shoes in the room. But the room was clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. Good breakfast.

Great option in Pisa

Old classic hotel by the river, great location with easy walk to the Dome and Tower and just 13 min walk from the train station. The hotel is old style but in very good shape, I got a room with river view and it was well worth it. Loved Pisa, underrated stop in la Toscana. Staff makes a great aperitif and there is a very nice terrace to enjoy a sit down. Would stay again.

Great location. Friendly staff

We arrived at the hotel very late, to a friend of Welcome and the offer of room service for some drinks, as the hotel didn’t have a bar The staff kindly helped us to get our bags to our room which is very spacious and clean, although a little bit tired in decoration. However the excellent location of the hotel in the historic centre overlooking the river more than made up for the decor. A pleasant buffet breakfast was included in the price. All of the staff were extremely helpful & friendly. I would happily stay there again

Charming hotel with wonderful staff

The oldest hotel in Italy, you won't find the sterile decor of most hotels but it's charming and clean with lots of interesting things to look at. The air conditioning is a bit noisy but was very appreciated. The views over the river are very beautiful, the Palazzo Blu is just across the river and there are some great gelateria and restaurants nearby. Leaning Tower is about 15min walk. What stood out to us at this hotel was the staff. They were all very welcoming, friendly and happy to give us advice on where to park our car, dinner recommendations etc.

A comfortable hotel in a great location with lots of character and history. Antique furnishing provided a quant charm and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Complimentary breakfast was a buffet that helped to start the day off right.

Hotel has amazing history and a great charm to it. It is in a great location with a lovely free breakfast. However the age of the property does show, the rooms were not in the best condition and the lack of AC left for not a very good nights sleep.

The hotel was very cute and cozy and what I expected knowing it’s one of the oldest hotels. The location was ideal being close to the airport and to the tower of Pisa. The staff were very helpful with explaining the event that was happening on the river at the night of our stay as well as guiding us to the roof for a better viewing experience. All in all we really enjoyed our stay.

DONT

Staff were friendly the room was poor furniture nearly fell apart when you touch it . You could either have the a/c on or the tv as there’s no sockets for both but this didn’t matter too much as neither worked so you had to keep windows open which meant you got eaten by mosquitoes there was an ally at the side of the room which on a nightly basis was used as a toilet by the 100 or so people that sit on the wall by the river also sat watching multiple drug deals in the same ally and at 03.30 every morning the bottle bins from the restaurants got emptied and at 06.00 am the ally was pressure washed and due to some event going on on day 3 workers were very loudly slamming pieces of metal for some stage they were building until 03.00 in the morning left a day early when the guy at reception asked why we told him he couldn’t care less

Shabby with barely any chic

Stayed 1 night pre flight. Location great however the historic charm of this place in no way outweighs the lack of basic facilities in room 305. The weather was very hot - aircon out of 1970s broken, dusty and obviously non functional, no idea why it was still left in situ gathering cobwebs. Windows do not open. It was stifling and unbearable. Bath stained with years of use, not dirty so much as worn. Shower curtain ancient worn and just clinging on. The hotel common areas are really interesting and the shabby chic look can be appreciated there but please make the rooms useable! Worst nights sleep ever.
