"Hotel Villa Kinzica is a hidden gem in Pisa. We highly recommend it for your visit. It's only a two-minute walk to the base of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the beautiful buildings surrounding it. Our room, #53, had a view of the tower.
The hotel is a traditional Italian hotel with furnishings and decor that reminded us of the 50s. When you enter the well-maintained and spotlessly clean hotel, it is instantly quiet and calm. It feels like a step back in time.
►I can't emphasize how clean and well-maintained the entire hotel was.
► Michael, the front desk clerk, was marvelous. Very warm, friendly, and helpful.
►The breakfast room was lovely, with a beautiful mural on one wall. A continental breakfast included juice, coffee, tea, boiled eggs, meats, cheese, croissants, toast, and pastries. The attendant makes your coffee in any style you would like.
►The location is excellent. You are near the main tourist area, but far enough away to avoid the noise.
Be sure to eat at the steakhouse directly across from the hotel. It is very good and reasonably priced. Even if you aren't a meat eater, they have vegetarian options.
We loved this hotel and will stay there the next time we are in Pisa."
