4 day break

The hotel claims to be the oldest in Italy and although that has it's charm the facilities do show their age. The wi-fi was very good as was the location, being close to the shops, bars & restaurants and only a 15min walk from the station and to the tower. The staff are excellent and always helpful. The continental breakfast was ample to start the day.

The worst night ever!!! The hotel is ok, although is old and the room are not 100% clean. I stayed 1 night and it was the worst, if you want to have a sleepless night then this is for you. Starting around 9pm-3am lots of people were partying outside of the hotel making it a nightmare for others. Terrible experience!

Characterful and with a long history of literary guests. A refreshing change from the blandness of modern hotels: not for everyone but I don't mind ageing paintwork and chipped tiling when it comes with an Arno view like this. A bath plug would have been nice but I've learned how to improvise one.

This is an old property full of memories of previous famous visitors like Virginia Woolf, and should be viewed as such. If you are an adventurous type and curious this would make an excellent stay. Just round the corner is where Galileo grew up and Pisa University where he studied.

Condition of the room was rather dirty. The bathroom wasn't cleaned properly. Windows aren't soundproof. Found a silverfish under the spare toilet roll. Spiders/cobwebs in room. Key to door is also very old and took a bit of getting used to. Other than that, location was great, roof terrace was awesome and staff were friendly.

Gem in need of small fixes

Amazing trip back in time at the oldest hotel in Pisa. Insufficient electrical outlets and bathtub was flat out dangerous! The whole hotel could use some paint and lacquer but overall an interesting experience!

An elegant property which has a distinct charm. Convenient for exploring once you have toured the hotel. It might look a little tired in some areas but any renovations have been done in fitting with its history. We would definitely return.

Great location - nostalgic hotel aka very old

Lovely old hotel really lovely place to stay the only issue we had was the noise and lack of cold water in the shower - breakfast was great - bathrooms were very old but as was the hotel so all in keeping. Staff were really friendly and great location. Independent Car Parking was down the road - dodgy looking blokes hanging around cars presumably for money - we didn’t pay them anything and no harm was done to the car - parking is free from 8pm to 8am and pay on easy park app. You can pull up outside hotel to load and unload car. We stayed for two days. Beautiful view of river.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was basic but ok - good pastry and good coffee. The room itself was what we expected and paid for. However we had a problem with mosquitos and both got multiple bites each night. We also had a problem with noise as the streets were very noisy all night and in the early hours of the morning. But this wasn't the hotels fault, it just made it difficult to sleep.
