Hotel Duomo Salo, Brescia

Advantages: Great Location for Pisa's main attractions.
Disadvantages: None

...We have stayed at the Grand Hotel Duomo on two occassions. I would class it as a four star Hotel. Location for Pisa could not be better, within 50 yards of the Field of Miricules where The Leaning Tower is Located, Also the Baptistry and the Cemetary all worth a Visit. The airport at Pisa is only 3 miles out of the town so Transfer to the Hotel is quick and cheap. Either by Taxi or even by Town Bus. The hotel staff are Professional and friendly. The rooms are well appointed as expected of a 4 star Hotel. There is a nice Bar area, often with a Piano Player in the evenings. The breakfast area is large and well laid out. The Buffet breakfast is well stocked and replenshed often. Again the Staff are Busy and polite. We booked the Hotel thru Octopustravel, but many of the Hotel Sites will Feature this Hotel. A good site I find... Read review

Advantages: Great location, lovely hotel, great staff, good value for money
Disadvantages: not great view from our room,

...I went to Pisa in November 2007 with my boyfriend. We had an amazing time and stayed here at the Grand Hotel Duomo. It was great value for money, we got the third night free so ended up paying £140 for three nights which was well worth it. Arrived at the hotel and the initial impressions were good. Nice hotel front, good location, clean and modern reception area. Bearing in mind we were there out of season, the staff on the reception desk were flawless. We spoke no Italian and they spoke to us in English and gave us maps of Pisa and pointed out some nice places to go and good bars/restaurants. Our room was on the 1st floor and didn't have a great view. We looked out onto a flat roof and then the back of another building. But seeing as we were out most of the day and only were in our room to get ready and sleep it wasn't a big issue... Read review

Advantages: Fantastic location
Disadvantages: In need of refurbishment

...Having an early morning flight back to Edinburgh, and looking to spend our last night of our recent trip to Italy in Pisa, we chose the Grand Hotel Doumo. Why? Well, if you're looking for a hotel which is ideally located for all that Pisa has to offer, you'd be hard placed to find a more suitable one. It's literally a few steps from the famous tower and in fact, many of the rooms have a magnificent view of the tower and Doumo (hence the name). that explains the Doumo part of the name...you could hardly be more accurate. And describing it as an hotel is pretty spot on too. But Grand? Me no think so. The hotel may indeed have been grand once upon a time (possibly around the time the builders had forgotten their plumb line and were erecting said tower with all haste), but it sure ain't now. Dated, tired and in need of a general... Read review
