We only stayed one night in Montecatini as part of a choir tour. Really i's not fair to comment on the town which I felt was like a 1970 shopping town, not much life and second rate. The hotel was better than the town and fitted the description perfectly. Everything is perfectly clean but slightly dated and slightly shabbby. Brakfast was great. Service was average, the girl on reception who appeared to be the manageress refused to allow drinks to be served until 6pm, even though we arrived at 4.30pm and there was not tea/coffee in the room. When the bar manager arrived at 6.05pm drinks could be served but were only allowed to be put on the room bill - a situation I have never come across. We were booked in individually, but were part of a tour in different hotels. When it came to paying, we had to accept eeverybody's bill - most annoying.

We stayed at this hotel as part of an Albatross Tour in September 2012.
While I understand that most accommodation in Italy is in older buildings compared to what we are accustomed to this building is in urgent need of a renovation. I had heard that there are renovated rooms on the higher floors but they seem to put the tour groups on the first and second floors that are still shabby.
I appreciate antique style furniture but the decor and furniture in our room had dings, scratches and paint chipped off and was generally run down. The beds are awful - you lie on the mattress and you sink into the middle and I only weigh 60 kilos. If you didn't have a back problem when you checked in, you'll have it by the time you check-out! This along with the terrible street noise at 2am in the morning makes for a very restless night and hardly any sleep.
To top it off, Luciana the manager was extremely rude one morning at breakfast to one of the other members of our tour group. She verbally abused them just for using the coffee machine!!
Make no mistake - if you stay here with a tour group you will be treated 2nd class compared to the other guests and they will limit the food served at breakfast and dinner. If I wanted roast meat and vegetables every night for dinner I could of stayed at home.
There are plenty of nicer hotels to stay in Tuscany while you are in Italy.
Make sure to take the funicular up to Montecatini Alto - beautiful views and food at the top!!

We stayed here just one night.

The hotel is well located (although somewhat difficult to find) near shopping and restaurants but surprisingly quiet. Parking is on the street, but, at least when we were there, was plentiful and close by.

The room was nice sized and very clean. The bath was large. The breakfast room was beautiful and the breakfast was excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful.

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights while on a Shearings coach holiday. The rooms are large, comfortable and clean, and both set dinner & breakfast were excellent. The wine list was good and prices sensible. A lovely comfortable place to stay with a pleasant outdoor sitting area. Friendly staff. Recommended so long as you like age & character.
