Good location
The hotel has a good location, it is only 15 minutes from the the leaning tower by foot. The walk is very easy, there is also a train station very close to the hotel.

We would stay here again. The room was immaculate, breakfast was very good, and it’s a great location; but customer service is not their strength. For example, although we are seasoned travelers; and despite Google having lead us directly to the front door of the hotel, we had a great deal of difficulty finding it. The only evidence of its existence is a sign painted on the wall of an adjacent building. Its paint is fading, located well above eye level, and perpendicular to the street. There is no lobby or anything to suggest there is a hotel behind the locked gate leading to the hotel’s front door. Its existence was finally affirmed by a guest who emerged from gate. She told us that “they don’t show up” until 3:00. Our reservation stipulated that check in began at 3:00 but we had hoped to check in early. We had lunch and returned shortly before 3:00; but the front door was still locked. We found another guest at 3;20-3:25, who let us in and pointed us to the room where the office was located. The woman who checked us in was very pleasant and said the front door shouldn’t have been locked. The remote control to our 17 inch TV didn’t work. I called the office to request another remote. They told me that they would send their “technical expert” to our room. She arrived in an our, confirmed that our remote didn’t work; and showed me how to change channels manually on the back of the TV; but she eventually found another remote. NICE HOTEL with a SKELETON STAFF

Great value stay and almost perfect
Overall my stay was very good. The price, friendly service and large room were all excellent. The location is not the best, but decent enough given the small size of Pisa and everything was still walkable. My only areas I would suggest improving would be the towels and the mattresses. The towels seemed old and thin, and the mattresses seemed old and were sinking in the middle. Investing in some new towels and mattresses would've made my stay perfect. But also, given the good value price, I can't complain too much.

A lovely place to stay.
We had a lovely stay. The breakfast was a lovely added extra. The rooms were big and spacious with clean towels everyday. If you are wanting to go to the Leaning Tower it’s an ideal location.

The property and staff were all very good, but I booked the stay as an apartment with cooking facilities. When we arrived and went to our room there were no kitchen facilities , it was locked away. When we questioned the staff we were told it was 10 euros per day extra which was not mentioned in the booking, which on a way spoilt the stay.

Thanks for the review! We're sorry to hear about the kitchen but it's clearly written on the site that to use the kitchenette you have to pay an extra fee.

It is a nice property only a few minutes away from the tower. I drove here so not sure how accessible it is by transit. Staff was nice and overall it was good experience. Only complain i have is the mattresses could have been better. It was a bit uncomfortable for sleeping.

We had a fabulous stay at Vele storiche pisane. We arrived late and the self check-in instructions were extremely clear and it was an easy process. The room was very clean and spacious. Breakfast was nice and all the staff were lovely. We booked a 4 night stay, but our flight home was cancelled and we needed to stay an extra night, the staff were extremely kind and helpful in assisting us to book an extra night and we were able to stay in the same room we had stayed in for the previous 4 nights. Highly recommended Vele storiche pisane as a base to explore Pisa and the surrounding cities. Thankyou for a fabulous stay!

This hotel is pretty good, I would say the hospitality is great however the beds were uncomfortable. It felt like a trampoline. AC was great though!
