Top San Donato Hotel Reviews

RE-Versiliana

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, stylish, recently renovated hotel. I feel I got a good deal for 1 night. Recommended."

Hotel Pisa Tower

8/10 Good

"The room was on the smaller side, but as expected. It had all the essentials: air conditioning, a safe, coffee-making facilities, a fridge, a hairdryer, and a TV. The location was great—just before the entrance to the main square, with a local pastry shop right around the corner. However, two things would have made the stay much better: the bed and the room's sound insulation. The bed was very creaky and the mattress was uncomfortable, so every time someone turned over, you woke up. Another downside was the noise from both the street and inside the hotel; the cleaners tended to chat right outside the room door starting from 7:00 AM. You can also hear all the guests trying to open their rooms at the middle of the night with quite old-school metal keys"

Versilia Lido | UNA Esperienze

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was amazing. My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary and we could not have been happier with our experience. The front desk staff were absolutely fantastic. They were helpful, friendly, kind and generous with their time. The surrounding area around the hotel was manicured, the pool was beautiful and roof top restaurant is a must see. Thank you for a lovely time and making our anniversary something we will not forget."

Sina Astor

8/10 Good

"The Annexe room was spacious and comfortable and kept clean. There were plenty of clean towels and gowns and slippers were provided. The staff were all very helpful and pleasant. Breakfast was good with choices from the buffet or al la carte. The hotel is well located on the strip opposite the beach and with the pine forest behind and within easy reach of the train station. We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel Sin Astor."

AC Hotel Pisa by Marriott

8/10 Good

"Compared with hotels in Asia, the amenities here are relatively basic, as slippers, toothbrushes, and toothpaste are not provided. My only other observation is that the bathroom is not completely sealed off from the room, unlike what you typically find in hotels in Asia. As a result, sounds from the bathroom can be heard quite clearly in the room, which can be slightly uncomfortable."
