I absolutely loved my stay at Albergo Ariston! The rooms were clean, spacious, and the recently refurbished bathrooms were a pleasant surprise. The clear view of the Tower from my room was stunning. The only downside was the basic breakfast. However, the overall experience with the beautiful views of the Leaning Tower, especially at night, made it a must-visit. I'm already planning on returning in December 2007.

The hotel's location is superb, right next to the leaning tower, offering a unique setting from the front door. The rooms feature a lovely modern bathroom and air conditioning but are small in size. The staff are friendly and proactive in recommending local dining spots. However, the service can be inconsistent, a departure from the usual Italian warmth encountered elsewhere on the trip.

The Albergo Ariston offers beautiful views of the Leaning Tower at night, with spacious and clean rooms that provide a glimpse of the tower or a small garden. While the bathroom was impeccably clean, the breakfast was basic. The hotel's location is superb, right by the Leaning Tower, but the dining experience may not meet high expectations.

I couldn't have asked for a better location! Right next to the Leaning Tower, surrounded by amazing eating places. The rooms were nicely presented but on the small side. The service was a bit cold, which was a contrast to the friendly Italians we met elsewhere. The breakfast inclusion was a nice touch, even though the dining experience left much to be desired. Overall, a mixed bag but saved by the incredible location.

I had an unforgettable stay at Albergo Ariston with breathtaking views of the Leaning Tower. The rooms, though infested with mosquitoes, offered an astonishing view of the tower; however, noise from a nearby pub kept me up until the early hours. On the bright side, my room had a balcony that allowed me to enjoy the stunning tower and beautiful square. The bathroom was exceptionally clean, showcasing the hotel's commitment to hygiene. Although the breakfast was basic, the overall experience at Albergo Ariston was a must with its phenomenal nighttime view of the illuminated tower. Make sure to request a room at the front for the best experience. I'm already planning my return in December 2007.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room, though basic, met my requirements as a single traveler and was clean. The front of the hotel offered a good view of the tower, but the window only overlooked the street leading to the tower. The service was a mix of unfriendly and friendly interactions, with some staff members bordering on rudeness at times. The location was excellent, just opposite Piazza dei Miracoli and a pleasant 10-minute stroll away. The hotel was right next to the leaning tower, making it a prime spot for tourists. The dining experience was subpar, with very basic options that did not meet expectations. The facilities were average, not standing out in any particular way.

The hotel has an incredible location right near the Piazza del Duomo in Pisa, offering breathtaking views of the leaning tower and the cathedral. The service provided was helpful and they even recommended great local restaurants for an authentic dining experience. However, the rooms, though adequate, were impacted by external lights all night, and the continental breakfast was a bit basic. Overall, for the value paid, why complain about minor inconveniences?
