    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 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.

    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).

    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.

    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.

    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.

    The beds weren’t amazingly comfy and the bathroom/shower was questionable. A/C functioned OK but not very strong for the size of the room.

    Couldn’t be in a better location and the property has so much history so even though the rooms are very dated you can understand why

    The aircon was very loud and not all that efficient but it was ok. The shower wasn’t very powerful, only if you had it very hot! Definitely needs some tlc, but if you go expecting that you won’t be disappointed.

    Breakfast was very good, you had to be there fairly early on though. Good selection of food. Cappuccino and espresso readily available from staff. The staff were fantastic, very friendly and eager to help in any way. Ask for water bottles to be filled with either still or sparking water and ice at reception. Location was amazing. Authenticity, history and character were fab. Make sure you go to the roof terrace to enjoy a drink. We would visit again.
