12 April 2012 Jessica would recommend this property

Liked: Amazing place to stay! It's actually a 3 star hotel right on the river but on the top floor they have rooms with shared bathrooms which makes it more of a hostel. We never had problems with sharing the bathrooms though and the hotel is beautiful, quiet, safe, and secure, and right between the train station and the major attractions like the tower. The breakfast they provide is great. Coffee, juices, cereals, toast, yogurt, fruit and fresh mozzerella.

Disliked: There was nothing to dislike

08 April 2012 Jiebei would recommend this property

Liked: The hotel is nice and the enviroment is clean. The assistants were very helpful for us by providing wide range of informations in this town. The room is big. We original booked a double-bed room in this hotel with shared bathroom, and they updated it to the one with private bathroom, due to lack of costomers. I will strongly recommend it to everybody and sure you will have a nice night

21 March 2012 Kristi would recommend this property

Liked: This hotel is located right on the Arno River, which is great. A big plus that I didn't expect was that not only do they offer free breakfast (which is a buffet, but I was not around during the hours in which they offer it), but from early hours (4.30 AM until official breakfast hours), they offer a quick station where you can grab some breakfast on the go. FURTHERMORE, if you need to travel during obscene hours (such as myself.. checked out at 3.30 AM), they give you a nice little bag packed with food and orange juice to take! Very cute.

Disliked: This hotel is from the 11th century. It is old. They still use skeleton keys (cute though). However, this leaves us with doors that are VERY weak (from one reviewer, apparently his didn't even lock) and bathrooms that are very small. It adds charm, but also makes it a bit uncomfortable.

28 October 2011 Daniel would recommend this property

Liked: Good hotel in a great location. Although our bedroom was pretty basic, the main public rooms of the hotel were interesting and a bit plush - and the terrace on the roof was a terrific bonus. The staff were really pleasant and helpful too, especially the young male receptionist.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike really.

16 August 2010 Martha Jane would recommend this property

Liked: This hotel is a wonderfully old fashioned and charming place, great value for money and in a brilliant location. Unfortunately the only shared shower is on the 4th floor which was a minor downside as we were on the 2nd. However, the service and the included breakfast were brilliant. This is a hotel though not a hostel so brilliant for couples but not necessarily for backpacking groups.

Disliked: nothing

Liked: Royal Victoria Hotel in Pisa is a very special experience. It is fantastic to walk the broad stairs and all the rooms are individually decorated. Especially the tiles on the floor are very beautifull. We can recommend the roof terrace for a before dinner drink. We just loved it!!

17 December 2009 Peter would recommend this property

Liked: If you want Holiday Inn style modern plastic, this isnt for you. Wonderfully eccentric / a real gem. Take a look at the safe behind the check in. Looking forward to a return visit sometime.

16 October 2009 Paul would recommend this property

Liked: While the room was only average, the hotel itself was a treasure trove full of antiques and paintings. There was even an art exhibition going on in one of the rooms on the first floor. So be sure to walk around the hotel to explore its common rooms. Staff were friendly and helpful too.

Liked: This hotel has understated granduer and transports you back to a 1930s feel. We booked a "best room" which was large with lovely views of the river.Every member of staff we dealt with were polite and very helpful. The hotel is within walking distance of the leaning tower and the train station. We had a wonderful weekend in Italy and would recommend this hotel without hesitation.
