Rosso di Sera Relais Tuscany

A really nice little hotel with fantastic staff. The room was nicely decorated and very clean. The staff were absolutely superb and all spoke great English. Only a 15 minute walk from the Tower of Pisa. Only complaint is that it's a very noisy area. Trains go past all night and it sounds like there's a recycling centre nearby, making it difficult to sleep. Would still certainly recommend.

Only stayed here for one night but would have happily stayed longer. |Located just a short walk from the centre of town, the hotel staff were friendly and helpful. We were shown directly to our room and shown how to use the air con which was a nice touch.|The room itself was quite big, clean and tidy. The bathroom was clean and tidy and had all the essentials. We had a balcony area but you could not see much as there was a high wall.|Breakfast was included and it was delicious, coffee, juice and pancakes. |Would definitely return if I’m ever in Pisa!!

What I had failed to spot when choosing this hotel for an overnight stay was that not only is it opposite a station but it is located between 2 or 3 different railway lines. However in late August it was hot so we had the shutters and windows closed with the aircon on so although trains do go past all night they are neither particularly noisy nor frequent, so we heard them if we woke up but they didn’t disturb our sleep.||We had a spacious corner room on the first floor with a shared, sunny terrace and our son had a single on the same landing next door. The room had luggage/ hanging space, en-suite shower room, small fridge with tea and coffee making facilities, chest of drawers, ottoman, bedside and overhead lamps, a chair, comfortable bed, patio doors and a side window and effective air conditioning.||There is a pleasant courtyard garden with outdoor tables in both sun and shade and a jacuzzi which was pleasant to cool off in on a warm August evening. There are mosquitoes so repellent and/or room spray is advisable.||The receptionist doubled as bar staff and was happy to bring us wine and cocktails in the garden (at reasonable prices) and pizza was available although we didn’t try this as we planned to go out for dinner. The self-service breakfast is simple but comprises cereals,juice, yogurt, breads, toast, ham, cheese, a couple of hot items including eggs, plentiful pastries and a pancake making machine as well as good coffee to order. Seating is indoors or in the garden. The staff are pleasant and friendly although there are usually only one or two on duty- it is not a high cost establishment and room rates are reasonably priced.||The location is extremely convenient for central Pisa if a bit of a challenge to get there. Access is via a ramp in the station car park to a walkway through a noisy road tunnel but it proved to be safe and takes you directly to a supermarket, Asian restaurant quarter, an area of market stalls selling gifts and souvenirs past city walls into the square containing the Tower and duomo in less than 10 minutes. Quirky and not everyone’s choice - even our taxi had to make one u-turn to get us there -but a pleasant spot, at a reasonable price for central Pisa and we would go back as it was so much more relaxing than getting a hire car straight from the airport, doing a shop and driving direct to our holiday rental that same evening. We were able to start fresh the next morning, stop for lunch and still be there in time for a swim.

It is with great regret that I give this review! I liked the staff at the hotel very much. I believe it is a family business. I really appreciate all the special touches: decoration, service, friendliness, English fluency, nice breakfast. But the bottom line is that this hotel is not suitable for sleeping. It is located right in front of the disastrously designed San Rossore train station. Very loud trains pass through the station all day and night. Traffic includes "through trains," which thunder through the station blasting their horns continuously, per chaotic Italian protocol. All night. The hotel is a mere 300 meters from the Tower of Pisa/Duomo square, but you must cross the accursed train tracks to get there. Either through the station itself (down the stairs, up the stairs, around the houses and down the lane) or via a nightmarish underground footpath at the side of a very busy road, if you can find the entrance.

Wonderfully decorated, pleasant reception, relaxing jacuzzi, a tad difficult to find. This hotel is not near the main Pisa train station, you will need to get a taxi from the main train station. Once you get to know your way around its a 10 minute walk to the tower.||Would certainly book again.

The fir thing you need to know is that don't have 24 hour reception. I got there around midnight, nobody opened the door, and no possibility to contact someone of the hotel staff. So I had to walk around Pisa at 1am looking for hotel (it is not a nice neighborhood). I payed for two nights and even though I couldn't check in the first day because the hotel was closed I had to pay the total amount . Insane and it was really expensive. The room smelled like urine and was full of mosquitoes. The breakfast is nothing special, for the exagerated cost of the room. You can find cheeper and nicer places to stay in Florence, which is bigger beautiful and nicer.

Enjoyed my stay here, it was very clean and the room was a good size. The location is good with a short walk to the tower, about 5 mins. The only reason I've not given 5 stars is I thought the breakfast options were lacking a little and we arrived at midday when they were closed so had to drag our bags around Pisa for a few hours. I appreciate that it was my fault for not reading the check-in times correctly but I didn't expect the door to be locked with no one available to even store our bags before checking into our room.

We had 3 nights here and it was lovelly. A spacious room, good service, nothing complicated. ||Next to the station for access to Florence a La Spezia and a short walk to the highlights at Pisa||Reception really helpful with local information and support
