Very impressive and superb value for money. Our group had booked one double and two single rooms.
The double was a two roomed family suite which was newly refurbished. The only minor criticisms are that the shower cubicle is quite small and there was only one small chair on the balcony.
The singles also had double beds and balconies but were in a wing of the hotel awaiting decoration.
Breakfast was pretty good too. However, if you want bacon make sure you aren't too late. Once its gone - its gone!
If I'm ever in Viareggio again this is where I'll be staying

Stayed here for three nights .When we arrived at the hotel we were given a room upgrade. Thank you :-)
The room was very clean and modern . We loved the quirky lettering on the headboard and surrounding the TV. Bathroom was a decent size, however, the shower cubicle was tiny .
Breakfast was served in a nice airy restaurant with plenty of choice.
The beach was really lovely and we certainly didn't mind paying for the sunbeds etc. beach towels are available to hire at reception.
We had Sunday lunch at the beach in The Principe di Piemonte restaurant . A seafood delight.
Loved the resort and would definitely return next year to the Hotel Residence Esplande.

Lovely hotel. Modern rooms. Excellent staff. Good food. Very enjoyable time had by all our family. The sunbeds were expensive given that they had some deal with the hotel next door! However the beach was lovely as so close. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice. We ate in the hotel one night and the food was fantastic and well priced.

Hotel Esplanade was very good. The staff were very helpful. Rooms were clean and well stocked with everything needed for self-catering although we ate out every evening. The only criticism is at breakfast there was no fresh orange juice; although there were other juices; and I would have preferred fried eggs instead of scrambled eggs (however, I think you could've ordered other forms of eggs but this was not offered). Over-all, very pleasant and convenient for sight seeing and I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wishes to stay in the area.
