8.5
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda The hotel is located by the river and about 20 minutes walking from the city centre. Rooms were well appointed and comfortable. Excellent breakfast.
7.6
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda The hotel's concept was interesting, it was decorated like an old monastary, which created an interesting atmosphere. However, being so close to the airport and next to a school, made the complex very noisy, never mind the fact that you could hear every door open and shut in the wing of the building, along with people walking in the hallway.
6.4
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda We had a good stay and the Hotel which an ancient convent is very well situated close to Pisa. The staff were friendly and polite.
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Aircraft noise, rooms too basic, and facilities limited. The price was too expensive for what was offered bearing in mind it has a three star allocation.
5.4
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Beautiful courtyard for breakfast This should be a much better feature for the hotel
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Rooms not really up to international standard. Ours was very small for a double room
7.7
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Wireless internet does not work in all parts of the hotel but the (new) staff does not know this. You then have to pay the same amount (5 Euros for 24 hours) to use the reception in the areas it does work (like the courtyard). Not too bad, considering 5 E is cheap for 24 hours but a little annoying.

Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda We selected this hotel for the novelty of staying in an old monestary and in fact paid more this hotel then others that looked to be more comfortable. We booked two double rooms for Christmas Day. Unfortunately, when we arrived we were given two twin rooms. When I asked for doubles, the man at the desk was not pleased but did give me two doubles. We were very disappointed to find our room was in a newer building attached to the back of the monestary and not in the original structure itself (which was again the attraction of the hotel to begin with). When I inquired, we were told the hotel was sold out and there were no rooms in the original. I accepted that response and moved on. However, a short time later, my husband returned to the desk to retrieve our passports and IDs which we needed for other purposes. The man at the desk became angry, took the documents into his office to make copies, slamming the doors in the process, and eventually returned and practically threw the identification back at my husband. Our experience at this hotel the first day put a huge damper on our day and tainted our entire stay in Pisa... a city we will not return to and will recommend our friends not even bother going to. On the upside, the breakfast was good.
6.1
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Cleanliness: We were amazed about the dirtiness of the white bathroom door and how damaged the door of the room were.
5.3
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Rooms were very basic although linen was clean with fresh towels every day. There was no bar or restaurant in the hotel or near-by which was disappointing.
8.9
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Wonderful atmosphere in this converted monastery. Great place to chill out and hang around in the grounds with a book to read after a day of sightseeing!
6.2
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda The disabled bathroom facility was a bit of a shock - could not shower without flooding the whole bathroom! Breakfast not begun till 7.30am with no allowance for the several who had to leave at this time for an early flight. Beds though spotlessly clean were rather hard and uncomfortable. When we were there the single elevator was not working and so had to pull cases across a gravel path and then up a steep flight of stone stairs.
7.1
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda We had to leave the hotel at 7am, and I did email in advance to ask if we would be able to have breakfast - I was told no as breakfast was at 7.30. When we were leaving, the receptionist told me it is in fact possible to get a 'take away' breakfast but as it had not been ordered we could not have it. I was a little annoyed as for the price of the room i think we had paid for our breakfast!
5.7
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda This is a very nice place and the breakfast was really good. The main disadvantage was, that it was rather loud. Not from the road but from the room next door. Two rooms share one entrance door and the walls are pretty thin. If your neighbours-room is empty, you´re lucky, if not you share every single noise.
6.8
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda A pleasant ambiance even if our room did front onto the car park! Nice breakfast overlooking the cloister.
8.6

8.9
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Fossabanda had the best breakfast we experienced in a month of travelling
6.4
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda We were very impressed with the refurbishment of the general areas in Hotel Santa Croce but feel that a little more imagination could have been put into the renovation of the bedroom areas, but still keeping the ambience of the Monastery. The bedrooms were very stark and un-inviting. We understand that in the renovation, the architect has tried to keep the feel of the original monastery, but we feel that they have forgotten that most of the people using the hotel are on holiday and need a little more 'Comfort' (as in a comfortable chair to sit in, a picture on the wall etc.), but still keeping the original decor. We hope that you will accept this as friendly criticism, as we enjoyed the experience of our stay. Yours faithfully Chris and Ken Lockwood
7.7
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Rooms were basic but clean. Breakfast was ok though a little crowded - easy walking distance to centre of pisa and only 10 mins taxi from the airport - would go back for the price and convenience.
8.2
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Un hotel da consigliare a chi piace la tranquillita'. Belli gli spazi comuni, l'hotel era un vecchio convento, elegante e confortevole. Parcheggio.
6.0
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda struttura molto bella, camere in stato mediocre, dalla manutenzione dei mobili alla pulizia delle pareti, eccessivamente spartana. Il prezzo richiesto dall'hotel non è giustificabile per delle stanze in quello stato.
8.3
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda E' molto gradevolo, la colazione è buona, anche se la saletta è piccola; consiglierei un minimo più di attenzione all'arredamento (comodino che "balla", l'aggiunta di uno specchio in camera, una lampada sul tavolino) e al riscaldamento che è runoroso.
7.3
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda Evidenti macchie di umidità ed intonaco scrostato nella camera. Camera un po' rumorosa. Tutto il resto eccellente, in particolare materassi ottimi e bagno molto ampio e funzionale.
9.2
Hotel Santa Croce In Fossabanda E' stata una bellissima scoperta! Il luogo è stupendo! Il monastero ha tantissimo "cachet"! Temevamo le zanzare, invece ne abbiamo viste solo una e non ci ha nemmeno punte! Stanza molto alta di soffitto, ottimo letto e lenzuola molto dolci, mattonelle idonee! Grande semplicità! Colazione veramente geniale! 3 note negative: 1. di notte, ci è stato difficile trovare il posto (meno male che i pisani ci hanno aiutate molto con le loro indicazioni; 2. la doccia è troppo stretta 3. Il parcheggio esiguo.
