I had a room facing the Arno which proved to be noisy with revelers out until 4 am. The bed was of poor quality

I loved the faded grandeur of the hotel. I felt I was on a set of Room with a View.

The bed quality was almost a deal breaker. The metal frames hidden behind the vintage wooden façade were making more noise than 2 skeletons dancing on a tin roof! Otherwise, a mini fridge and a safe should be considered basic equipment. Breakfast experience was a bit chaotic with a number of tables being littered with dirty plates from other patrons.

Amazing style preserved across the years. Halls and common rooms had museum-quality decor, that really gave an immersive experience during the stay. Lovely terrace at the top with cocktail service available both on in-hotel phone as well as WhatsApp. Friendly and super helpful staff! Car parking was also safe and convenient especially given the central location. The view overlooking the river was great with no impact on the overall noise of the room.

Location was good for a day or two in Pisa, not longer. Views of the river were exceptional. Was a bit noisy, but to be expected in the city. The hotel is very old and that comes with good and bad... good is that it is filled to the brim with history and art. Bad... water pressure is dreadful, and the bathrooms are vintage and not great. Staff were very helpful and lots of local restaurants and bars on your doorstep to enjoy.

The door of the room was not closing ok and the A/C was not working properly.

Location and the hotel concept was WAW!

The bed it VERY uncomfortable. If you’re young, it isn’t the WORST thing in the world, but I would imagine it would be extra unenjoyable if you’re older. We managed, but sleep wasn’t as good as it could’ve been! Bed update is necessary!

The property was wonderful! The ancient history surrounding the hotel made the spot feel extra special! The balcony was so nice to sit out on and watch the night life while having a glass of wine or coke.

The AC wasn't the best, the room was very warm however it's the middle of summer so I can't be too harsh.

Breakfast was better than expected. Very nice staff at breakfast. The location and history of the hotel was fantastic.

Whilst obviously relying on its old grandeur, it could still do with some modernising and new beds.

Beautiful old hotel. It was like staying in a museum. You could just imagine what it was like years ago with the gentry staying there.

A little dated but added to its charm

Beautifully old & historic. Lovely breakfast

We had 2 rooms for our family of 4 which were on different floors. The plumbing is old so the cistern took a long time to fill up - which was annoying when I was trying to sleep - but eventually it did.

This is the oldest hotel in Italy (1050) so it's very special and super quirky. The staff were lovely and helpful when we needed to order coffee at breakfast, store luggage and call a cab quick (due to torrential rain).

The view. We looked onto a brick wall.

Very authentic made the stay exactly what you expect. Male manager of the property was really helpful along with the lady at breakfast.

I think they need a better sitting room for visitors with a few more comfortable chairs and sofas and perhaps a proper bar. The drinks had to be ordered at Reception and brought up to the Terrace.

Location was excellent, facing the river and quiet when the windows were shut due to the air conditioning. The staff were very helpful and we enjoyed sitting on the roof garden with a cocktail in the evening. These were cheap in comparison to UK. around 7.5 euros. The furniture is old and very beautiful. We were in easy walking distance of the Tower, etc. and the side streets were great to wander in. We took a train to the Pisa Marina, trains are cheap, and had lunch down there and a train to Lucca on another day. There are buses to the station.

Our room was at the front of the hotel and was quite loud at night

Beautiful hotel, great breakfast and perfect location

Stayed in July 2025

The people in the street outside can be quite noisy at night. I would have liked some facilities in the room..kettle mainly and a fridge would be useful. The hotel staff were able to provide some hot water in a pot on request.

Amazing view from the window of the junior suite. Friendly and professional staff. The hotel is historical and full of character.

Stayed in July 2025

Whilst the view is great rooms on the front are very noisy. The breakfast was of moderate quality-more choice is needed. The A/C was very noisy.

The interiors are splendid and resonate history. The is a nice outdoor seating area. The staff are very helpful. The location is great.

I’m impressed by how much history has happened in the space and what it means to the community. I think it’s owed more investment than it has .

The hotel is amazing but the coffee wasn’t. Bread and food was good.

I am hesitant to write anything negative but has to be said, our room 330 had a very old small shower, took me two showers to discover the cold tap was the hot tap.

We loved this quirky hotel, fantastic location, staff so very helpful, breakfast was adequate, maybe eggs and tomatoes would be an nice addition. Cappuccino lovely and as.many as you wanted, Great value for money. Favourite spot was the roof top garden where staff could bring you a drink or you could bring your own.

Quite a lot of Ants in the room, not sure it’s the fault of the hotel but could maybe do more to avoid that.

Very authentic Italian hotel, drowning in history! Very friendly staff.

Rooms are a little tired and in need of redecoration. Public areas could be cleaner.

Staff were all very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice. Bags of old world charm.

The air conditioning didn't work and the room was stifling. No air through window in our room and room door banging all night. Shower cubical tiny.

Very quirky, cute hotel. Central and along the river. Breakfast was very good. Lovely toiletries and towels were very good. Bed surprisingly comfortable.
