We had 5 nights in room 205(front of hotel) - it was great and had a lovely balcony. There was some traffic noise, but nothing to put one off going again.We didn't need to keep windows open at night as the A/C was very efficient. The staff are lovely - friendly and helpful.There is a bus that stops outside of the hotel next door(Grand Hotel Royal) that takes you direct to Pisa airport - excellent. Hired bikes for 2 days - great fun. Hotel is very conveniently placed for everything!

Had a great stay in Villa Tina. We were lucky enough to bag suite `Tina` with a balcony ,giving excellent views of the sea and the main promenade along Viareggio sea front. Building is a former house from the late 20`s (I think) and the rooms are furnished in keeping with this period. High ceilings and plenty of room to relax. Everyone working there was really friendly and helpful, giving plenty of good advice. There is a large park a couple of minutes away where we hired bikes to explore the area-highly recommended. Viareggio was a great place to spend a week, we stayed local after a busy few days in Rome and Siena, but the rail links to Pisa etc are excellent.
The Vila Tina is on a main road but we didn`t find the noise a problem. Excellent hotel.

We chose this hotel because of the good reviews on trip advisor but I definitely would not stay here again or recommend it.

The hotel has fantastic potential, it has a great location and the building is beautiful, however it is in serious need of some TLC. The bathrooms are tiny and my husband could barely fit in the shower. The plumbing is atrocious and we had to have freezing cold showers on 7 of the 10 days we stayed there. We complained about it numerous times and they eventually discounted our room as a result of the inconvenience.

I definitely would not recommend the hotel for families with small children, there is only one tiny lift (just about fits a small pram and one parent). There was no bath in our room so we had to bathe our 18mth old son in the bathroom sink. We were also caught out by the 10Euro/night charge for a cot, which we were not informed about at the time of booking.

The bed was uncomfortable and the bedding looked ancient, I realize they are trying to offer a retro style, however it comes at the expense of comfort.

Lastly, breakfast was hit or miss depending on the popularity of the dish of the day. One decidely unpopular breakfast cake was put back out for 4 consecutive days - on the 4th day I picked up the last remaining hard-as-rock pieces and threw them away so that we would not have to endure yet another day of them!

My parents stayed at the same hotel for our first week, but had to move rooms half way through to accommodate some regulars, I'm not quite sure why the regulars wanted to stay in that room because it was on the second floor and the only rooms worth having are on the first floor. There is a significant difference in the size of the rooms between the first floor and second floor.

There is no pool at the hotel and although they offer discounts at the local beach, it is a paltry discount and you will still need to fork out ~15-20 Euros/day for sitting my the pool, extra if you also want to use the beach too.

Not worth the money - I would try the Best Western next door.

After reading these great reviwes about Villa Tina I though what a wonderful place this hotel must be and booked it but what a disappointment it was!!

First of all, the room they gave us had a shared balcony with the room next to us!!! I have never heard about a hotel that have shared balconies for the price of +150/Euros/night.

Walls and windows were paper thin and all the noise from the street and other rooms was so bad all through the night & day that we couldn´t get any sleep at all!

We had booked the hotel for 7 nights but because of the noise we had to check out after few nights and the "manager" of the hotel charged us the whole 7 nights even though we only stayed for a few nights. The hotel charged us extra 600 Euros from our credit card without our permission and when i called the hotel and asked about this the manager hung up the phone to my ear!!
I would not recommend this hotel to anyone!!!
