Great hotel with lots of history and character. Excellent location, we walked from the airport and left by walking to train station. Nice breakfast selection. Bit noisy on a Sat night but we were lucky to have a room that faced onto to the river. Would stay again.

The history of the building is rather neat. The problem is how dirty the room was. There was a rotten, decomposing apple in the corner of my room and my bed sheets were dirty and had dirt in the sheets. It felt as if the room was not cleaned before hand. The breakfast was pretty below average as your options are very limited for a hotel breakfast. Majority filled with pastries that were stale and crackers. The view from the smoking section that overlooks the river was gorgeous but other then that, it was a pretty poor experience.

Convenient hotel location and helpful staff

The hotel location is great for going around in town. It is within about 15 minutes from all attractions and the train station. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful during check-in and check-out. Our room was facing the river and it offered a great view in the morning and evening. A variety of food (bread, cold-cut, juice, fruits, etc.) were served at the breakfast. Included in the breakfast were special coffee which were ordered separately from the staff. The bathroom was kind of old style and was equipped with basic toiletries. A curtain was used in the shower stall of our room although I heard that some rooms have a glass enclosure. Overall, it was a great stay for us in the hotel that is a full of history.

Friendly staff, simple layout to the hotel. Slightly outdated in my honest opinion, just needs a bit of maintenance in places. However I understand the hotel is going for the ‘old fashioned’ look to capture the unique history of the building. Breakfast was fairly average but pleasant. Room was also average but retro interior made it nice. Interesting stay and the acceptable price.

Perfect Pisa

Eclectic and eccentric, harking back to a different time and a different world. Walk into the entrance hall and you step back in time and you are in esteemed company as the list of famous guests is a Who’s Who are those on the European tour. The rooms throughout the hotel ooze history. However, don’t expect all of today’s modern hotel luxuries, staying here is much more than staying in one of those chain hotels which could be anywhere in the world. Here you are clearly in Italy and Pisa is all around as the hotel is centrally located overlooking the river. A short walk from the railway station and the station easily connects to the airport via the Pisamover. Breakfast is buffet style and more than adequate, the roof terrace is a good space to sit, chat and relax with a drink. However, do explore the whole of the hotel, it is full of interesting exhibits, pictures and pianos! Staff are so helpful and friendly and the room rates are more than reasonable. For a few euros more a night upgrade to a superior room and enjoy more space, more items of a by gone age and often an enhanced view. This was my second stay and I will be more than happy to return!

Felt like royalty

We booked the classic room, with a special request to be on lowest floor possible (elevators can be spotty in historic properties). Staff, who were great, accommodated the request and gave us a room thay exceded my expectations. Decorated in 1930s, the room was filled with antiques. Bed was comfortable. Bath had a hand held shower. Stayed two nigjts. The first night revelers made it hard to sleep, but second night the noise was not too bad. Breakfast was very good and nice to hear cool jazz while sitting in a charming salon.

If you like new shiny boring holiday inn style hotels... Don't stay here. However if you like the idea of staying in a beautiful unique hotel, which is almost like staying in a moment in time. Stay here. Maybe everything isn't perfect.. but that's the joy of this timeless hotel. It's not expensive, go for it !! We had a lovely room overlooking the river, and yes the aircon did work !! Spotlessly clean room, and super friendly staff. Honestly, just book it !!

The hotel is gorgeous! However we guess that in an attempt to keep it as close to its original design, the owners haven’t done any upgrades to it. Some things need more attention like cracked paint, mold in the bathroom, better bed frames. With that said, the staff is amazing! You can’t beat the location; 15 minutes walking to the Leaning Tower of Pisa! 10 minutes to Porte Pietra, and tons of dining options around. It faces the beautiful river and bridge so you get to see gorgeous sunsets. and if you are going to spend little time in the room, then maybe the se things won’t bother the traveler too much.

I stayed at this hotel in September 2024 for one night. It's conveniently located about 15 minutes from both the train station and the Leaning Tower of Pisa, right by the river. The hotel has a vintage vibe with old furniture, an old piano, and an old radio in the hall. Our bathroom was well-equipped with plenty of space for toiletries, which was a nice change from other hotels on our trip. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, separating the beds for me and my child. Breakfast was great. While I would have preferred more modern furniture and curtains instead of shutters, overall, it was a pleasant stay.

We had a questionable room. The antique bed springs sagged like 75 yrs old. The shower door was half missing. Bathroom is old style. Screen on bathroom window torn badly. Poor lighting options. TV 12 in. No garbage bin...etc. However the hotel structure, bones, history, antiques are a good as any museum. Location I like right on river. We had view of tower. Many many rooms looked quite desireable as we cruised the historical hotel. But ours was not very good. Price is ok though. Survivable for one night. Pretty good breakfast in great room. Hotel needs some money I think.

We loved our stay at The Royal Victoria Hotel in Pisa. It was our first night in Italy before travelling to different cities and it was definitely one to remember. The staff were very helpful as we arrived early, however they showed us to a bathroom so we could get changed into fresh clothes and held our luggage for us until check-in. The room was unique we loved the interior - the hotel itself is like a museum! There is also a secret terrace where we were served cocktails by a very friendly waiter. The breakfast was my favourite it Italy! Lots of choice and again, very friendly staff there to help you. 10/10 stay 😊
