It’s an amazing old villa where the grand dukes of Tuscany used to stay. The room had a bit of an old smell to it, but sleeping under that frescoed ceiling was definitely an experience. The only issue we had is trying to locate the staff at the spa and at the bar, everyone was MIA for some unknown reason.
Old building, impressive, looks like an old castle, The room is nice and with all facilities, in the sower the toylet flashing system made some issues, the thermal pools are nice but looks old. My felling was that all spa pools and area need some paint. We had one day and it was nice, 15 minutes from Pisa tower, breakfast is very nice

Travelled with family for a birthday. Loved our trip fabulous spa and pools. We will come back
Amazing property with beautiful amenities. The staff was warm, efficient and ready to please. A special thanks to Carlo at the front desk who helped us coordinate a special event and Rami in the bar area that went out of his way to help us also. It’s a must stay!!
Thermal pools are very unique. We missed the train to the station that is so close to the hotel, so we ened up taking the bus (could find NO taxis in Pisa) that drops off outside the town.
It was very inconvenient with a large suitcase. So glad the hotel was accommodating and let us check in early and use the pools! We needed it.
The thermal baths were overcrowded and for the pools extra fee. The room description on Expedia web is not the same as the hotels. Thus a point of conflict.
The excellent spa facilities and grounds. Beautiful tasteful interior decor in keeping with type if property. I missed having a kettle on the room to make a cup of tea. Access to pools were not wheelchair or disability friendly. There were lots of steps to access the pools. The bed didnt have a duvet cover, which I see a lot in Italy. The duvet should have a washable cover.The staff in general were friendly and helpful , however acces toTherme facilities were not properly explained to us. The Gardener was very helpful and friendly and very happy to speak English.
Special place with an illustrious history, both literary and royal. My friend and i felt like princesses there in our canopied beds, and the spa feels like ancient Roman baths. The setting, in front of a ruin littered hill, is lovely. The Shelleys and Lord Byron stayed here.
This is a nice place to stay. The staff is kind and helpful. The pools are great. It’s easy to get lost on the property and have to get different elevators to reach one’s room. I think there is need for some renovation, while keeping the vibe and style of the hotel.

Dear Jennifer,First of all thanks for your review and the time dedicated.I am sorry to notice that some aspects of historical palace did not meet your satisfaction but please allow me some puntualizations:1) you had a very nice free upgrade in a junior suite, 3 categories higher than what you booked.2) the AC worked properly; only beacause in the first floor (yes you had a very big room in two levels, with original frescoes of '800 century) the temperature was 25 C degrees that does not mean there was no AC at all...3) as apologize to not perfectly meet you expectaitions we refund you 1/3 of the rate as discussed during the check outThank you for sharing with us your feedback.Best Regards,Thomas ParentiGeneral Manager

A quiet get a way was what we were after and this hotel fit the bill perfectly. The food is excellent, the room comfortable and I especially liked that the chambermaid came by every evening to ask if we required anything more. The baths were sometimes overcrowded, and not enough beds for every one. I think that in these times of pandemic, someone should supervise and make sure that the pools hold the number of persons they are supposed to, not more. The staff is well trained in hospitality, and they get top marks for their courteous demeanor.

We booked this hotel as for its facilities.
On arrival the restaurant was fully booked and they were completely inflexible.
We had two rooms the air conditioning in both did not work properly.
As we had to depart early we ordered a take away breakfast. The fruit salad in the breakfast was fermenting.
This is a hotel that thinks it’s good but fails to deliver on the basics.
The setting and spa facilities were excellent and staff very helpful and attentive

Beautiful property. Relaxing. Comfy. Great staff. Helpful. A bit challenging trying to get a taxi. Great if you have a car or plan to wait 20-30 minutes for a taxi.
Nice enough hotel but very expensive for what you get, no complimentary snacks or water in the room. Bathroom is quite basic and no modern touches, bath took an age to half fill. The spa pools were great and very quiet while we were there. Expensive for drinks in the car but they were very good.
This historic building is beautiful and the spa exceptional. The reception staff are brilliant and so helpful. The location is good a 10 minute cab ride to Pisa, 20 mins to Lucca. It is a shame that there is no swimming pool only the hot pools. The restaurant really lets down this hotel both in terms of food (a very tough steak full of gristle and potatoes which tasted refried) and service, no vegetables for my husband and it took him asking for the menu to show they should have been included and I was not asked why I didn't eat more than a mouthful. They are also not great at accepting there is any problem. Everything else about the hotel is excellent. The bar area is lovely and Fabio the barman really helpful.
The service was excellent. We just stayed for one night but we were allowed to use the spa facilities even after the check-out time for the remaining part of the day. The staff was always ready to help us if we had any questions. The breakfast was very tasty with many options. The hotel room was good although you can see that it hasn't been renovated for a while. The WiFi worked nicely. The selection of TV channels is quite limited. There's is also a nice place just outside of the hotel. I recommend trying marinara.
The spa was great, particularly the saltwater hot pool. Not many places have this. The only negative was that the dinner prices were really over the top, in my view. Really good food, but very pricey.
All good , there is disconnection wifi sometimes due to updating system, the spa service not very well, push you spend more money there. Should be careful saleswomen.
