Hotel Esplanade - Marina di Pietrasanta

Amazing staff, cozy atmosphere, great location, beautiful rooftop view, clean and minimalistic rooms.

Everything is what I need and want.

Fantastic location directly opposite the beach. Great Views from the roof of both the sea and the mountains behind. Well fitted out roof terrace and nice sun loungers so no need to book the beach if only there for a very short time. Nice re fitted bathroom and good shower. Towels changed regularly and room kept clean. A/C available if required.

Breakfast was a disaster. Regrettably the hotel had a coach party which demolished everything. Buffet was not refilled and always had to ask for items. Very poor attention to other guests needs. Veranda had a brick facade so impossible to see downwards. Hotel changed hands recently and undergoing some changes. Will be very good 3* when finished.

Access to the beach, great value for money and woderful attention of the staff

This hotel is a hidden gem near the beach, offering stunning views from the rooms. The staff are friendly and professional, making you feel welcomed throughout your stay. The cleanliness and attention to detail in the rooms, especially the fabulous bathrooms, are impressive. Additionally, the breakfast spread has a variety of choices, ensuring a satisfying start to your day.

All was satisfactory during our stay.

Almost all the rooms have a view toward the sea. The room was cleaned every day. The staff at the Reception was very friendly and spoke English and German.

Right in front of the hotel is the main road, which means it is always very noisy. No food is allowed in the hotel rooms. The small refrigerator is "stocked" with drinks that you have to pay for. The bathroom was very modern, but some fixtures were falling out. The hand towels were as thin as pillowcases. The hotel has wooden doors without springs and there are no carpets - so you always hear slamming of doors and voices echo very far in the hallways. The waiters in the dining room were cocky and inefficient. Many tables were left dirty or were wiped off with their hands.

Staff were very helpful and friendly - unfairly to them seemed not the first time they were made aware of the expectations not matching what was sold or presented when booking originally - the pictures and the description did not do the hotel justice and not for the right reasons. But the staff have made the whole experience much more amenable. The location was excellent however and close to the beach, shops and restaurants.

Rooms very shabby with old furniture - there were holes in the walls where plaster had chipped and green vinyl lino served as flooring - frankly looked like an old hospital with chemical smell all over the place - not quite relaxing. But clean and with new bathrooms as a plus. The restaurant had no atmosphere and for lunch you had to order in advance 1-2 hours so that the food can be prepared or wheeled in (you could not get anything to eat at 1pm). Had a feel of a retirement home. Think there is some restoration work going on.

Good breakfast and easy access to the beach and restaurants. the hotel is conveniently located near the main street and the receptionist was friendly.

The room was not properly cleaned every day, and the Wi-Fi was extremely slow and unreliable. It was difficult to get a good night's sleep due to the noise coming from other rooms and the street outside.

We had a lovely weekend by the sea. The hotel was in a central location, just a short walk from the beach and plenty of restaurants. The staff were really friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable, with a great view of the sea. We also enjoyed the breakfast in the morning, which offered a good variety of options.

The air conditioning in our room wasn't working properly, so it was a bit humid and stuffy at night. The pool and gym were also closed during our stay, which was a shame as we were hoping to use them.

I had a pleasant stay in this hotel. Its location on the seafront is amazing and very close to the beach & center, making it easy for me to visit everything. The hotel facilities were nice, and I particularly enjoyed the rooftop with an very nice view. The staff was friendly and always ready to assist me. The breakfast served was wonderful, with delicious homemade pancakes, omelettes, and scrambled eggs cooked to order.

Nothing negative to say.

The location of this hotel is perfect, right by the beach and in the center of the resort. It's so convenient to be able to walk to the nearest beach and enjoy some time in the sun. The rooms are fabulous, with a great bathroom and a balcony at the front. It's lovely to have a space to relax and take in the surroundings. The breakfast here is also a highlight, with a variety of options to choose from. It's a great way to start the day and fuel up for the activities ahead.

All was excellent.

This hotel is ideally situated on the coast, walking distance from the promenade and just across the street from the beach. the rooms are well-maintained and comfortable, with modern bathrooms and pleasant views. the staff is incredibly helpful and friendly, willing to go above and beyond to ensure that guests have a memorable stay. the breakfast is delicious with fresh, tasty options, and the terrace offers fantastic views of the surrounding area.

Despite the hotel's many positive aspects, there were a few noticeable flaws with the soundproofing in the rooms. Some guests complained about excessive noise coming from the street outside, which could be disruptive for light sleepers.
