Hotel berhampiran Church of the Immaculate Conception, Castiglioncello

Hotel muy antiguo. Habitaciones cómodas pero las toallas y algunos desconchados en paredes y muebles no se corresponden con un cinco estrellas. Me pidieron un taxi para ir al puerto y al final aparecio una persona del hotel que luego me hizo en la entrada del puerto cambiar de coches y me llevaron a un lugar que no eran cobrándome 25 euros. Quería cobrarme más para llevarme al lugar correcto... El hotel es responsable de esto porque el coche inicial era de una persona del hotel

This hotel has comfortable spacious rooms and a good bathroom. On the one hand the hotel looks luxurious and businesslike, but on the other hand it also lacks a bit of atmosphere and the rooms (although in perfect condition) even come across as a bit dated. We weren't too keen on dinner here, but given the isolated location of this hotel, there are very few other nearby options. The location is clearly aimed at people with a car: we arrived by train and that was an unpleasant and somewhat dodgy walk. (would prefer not to do this in the dark). The service is excellent, as agreed a taxi was arranged for us on time the next morning.

Pros Start at reception was good and helpful Breakfast was good Proximity to bus stand(but not with ticket shop and City center) Cons Bad sound insulation and loud cleaning noises by cleaning staff even in the morning hours Molds in the washroom

This was my first holiday this year and I decided to stay at Bagni di Pisa for 5 nights to celebrate my birthday and for a relaxing holiday in a very quiet and tranquil area. And quiet it is as I had very good night sleep all throughout my stay. Bed was comfortable and the Comfort double room I had was quite spacious and lovely decorated. Please bear in mind that this hotel is a typical Italian palazzo with antique furniture but this was a plus for me as it gives the hotel its unique character. I was on half board basis. The food was always good and the food menu and wine list were quite varied also offering typical stuff from the region. WiFi was so and so. The spa area was very good with heated indoor pools. Even the outdoor pool which was my favorite is heated. They offer also sauna and massages and I recommend their massage therapists highly especially a certain Alexandra and Caterina (if I’m not mistaken) - I felt rejuvenated, so thank you ! Housekeeping was done twice a day and toiletries offered were of very good quality. However even though I enjoyed my stay I have some reservations as follows: 1) This hotel is not adults only; 2)Even though the location is lovely and the hotel is situated overlooking the hills it’s quite detached from anything else albeit the train station which is situated just 8mins walk away; 3) At dinner they literally force you to take wine so you feel compelled to take wine - for a person like me who is a bit alcohol intolerant this is quite irritating; 4) Check the final bill when you checkout as you might have differences here and there- in my case there was a huge mistake but it was rectified immediately. I also noticed that prices shown here and there do not include tax- so watch out! 5) There’s no security anywhere inside or outside the building which for a huge place like this, which also caters for weddings etc, is quite unacceptable if not strange!! All in all I enjoyed it very much and I really appreciated the lovely gift the management gave me for my birthday but somehow I felt that there was something lacking. Even though all staff were cordial and friendly I didn’t feel at home…
