“Hidden Gem in Hidden Gem of a town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 26, 2012

What a surprise the hotel and town are. The rooms are so stylish and staff so helpful and obliging. Excellent blend of old palazzo updated with the best of both worlds. The added bonus of a beach club at Forte di Marmi, with all mod cons, was the icing on the cake. Whoever was at reception was always ready to help out with restaurants, train timetables, places to visit and what to do. Shamefully my Italian is poor but all the staff spoke English to help us out. Brilliant find and Pietrasanta is a treasur of art galleries and restaurants.

Room Tip: Only nine rooms but whilst view from rear not brilliant but very, very quiet.

“Lovely hotel but overpriced”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed September 3, 2012

We booked this hotel at the last minute and while it is very nice, I felt that £275 for a small "junior suite" which looked out on to a flat roof, disused shed and had large dead plants outside the windows was overpriced. This hotel has limited facilities, no pool or grounds, you park on the street outside and the breakfast area is "cosy" to say the least and there is no restaurant or bar. Service is minimal, information about the town only offered after we asked. It is a chic boutique hotel with modern art on the walls. Breakfast was good and wifi free. Not worth the money we paid but if you got it cheaper it is a clean, beautifully decorated, pleasant small hotel. It is located a short walk from the centre of Pietrasanta which is a really cool and lively small town for a short visit. I agree with a lot of the comments made by reviewer europair - the staff do seem rather absorbed with their beautifully created hotel, almost to the detriment of the service offered to guests. When I pay for an expensive hotel room I expect good customer service and hotel facilities as well as a high standard of decor.

Room Tip: The view from Suite Verde Cipollino is not good.

“100% recomended”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 14, 2012

My wife and I, stayed at the hotel from July the 3rd to July 8th. and it was a wonderful and unique experience. We have been in other 5 star hotel in Pietrasanta, but Palazzo Guiscardo is the best by far.
The room, the service and the food are excellent. The ambience and the art surrounding the walls are unique.
All the employees make you feel like at home, what a gorgeous hospitality.

“fantastica esperienza”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 19, 2012

I don't live in italy since 10 yrs, but this past June I went back to my Tuscany and I stayed at the "Palazzo"
Not only his amazing location, the beautiful town, the beautiful beaches, but feeling cuddle by "The Palazzo" makes everything more amazing.

Room Tip: The Junior suite are a "must try"
