Friendly place and nicely situated.
the hotel is nicely situatated close to the beach and the people friendly and helpful. The climate in the room was good and we had a nice balcony with a view of the ocean.
The only thing I could have wished for was some vegetables for breakfast and maybe some youghurt that was not sweet. Small things.

Ottimo
La stanza aveva tutto l'arredamento nuovo e tutto era funzionante e pulito. L'albergo si trova a 50 metri dal mare. Si deve solo attraversare la strada. Per il parcheggio ci sono tanti posti a pagamento davanti all'ingresso.

Mauvais rapport qualité/prix
Hôtel ancien très bien situé mais bruyant, au confort sommaire.
Petit-déjeuner au buffet très restreint et de qualité moyenne. Accueil agréable mais limité par le fait que le personnel ne parle pas anglais !

L'hotel si trova vicino al mare, in una buona posizione. Il personale dell'hotel è cordiale e disponibile, è stato disponibile anche a farci fare checkout per ultimi. L'orario di checkout è comunque a mio avviso un po' ristretto, a mio avviso il minimo per ogni hotel 3 o 4 stelle dovrebbe essere le ore 11 (meglio ovviamente se le ore 12 come fanno alcuni hotel). Il bagno durante la notte era troppo freddo (mese di aprile).

Hotel pulito, massima cortesia, vicino spiaggia
Abbiamo piacevolmente pernottato in questo hotel pulito, discreto, a due passi dal mare e dai viali a mare di Viareggio. Ampia zona per parcheggiare nelle vicinanze (a pagamento tariffa fissa per turisti). Situato proprio davanti al bellissimo parco di Viareggio. Estrema cortesia e disponibilità dei proprietari.

Litet hotell en tvärgata från strandpromenaden med alla restauranger och lyxiga affärer. Hotellet erbjuder plats på närliggande strand till rimligt pris. Rent, fräscht och med trevlig personal.

Court séjour d'une nuit en début d'octobre (belle température) Avons fait une belle promenade sur la plage et dans le magnifique parc derrière l'hôtel. Bons moments de détente dans notre voyage en Italie (1mois)
Petit hôtel charmant près de la plage. Bon rapport qualité/prix. Bon petit déjeuner.
Nous recommandons agréablement cet hôtel.

Close to the beach!
Was really close to the beach and all of the place to eat and shop. Was clean and the hotel staff were very friendly. We had a problem with the Wi-fi and they corrected it right away. Good place to stay if you're on a budget but still want to stay really close to the beach.

Disappointed
Can't understand why this hotel has such a high rating. Location is great but other than that am failing to see what the fuss is about. Room in need of a make over and the air con was down right rubbish....would have had a cooler breeze off an ice cream! Wouldn't stay again, Grand Hotel for me next time!

Fehlende Expedia-Buchung
Das Hotelpersonal war freundlich und hilfsbereit.
Es hatte nur leider keine Buchung von Expedia vorliegen. Sie haben sich sehr bemüht, uns in ihrem Hotel unterzubringen und uns ein Zimmer in einem anderen Hotel für 2 weitere Tage, an denen im Hotel Playa kein Zimmer frei war, zu vermitteln.
Aufmerksamer Frühstücksservice.
Die Zimmer waren ruhig.

Lovely little hotel with perfect location.
Lovely hotel, great location, helpful staff. Spacious room, nice seaview, very handy fridge in the room for kids` snacks and beer... Good breakfast with fantastic coffee. Beach is across the road and also lovely park across another road. Lots to do in Viareggio anyway. The only disadvantage is parking. You need to pay for parking, anywhere you go. We managed to find a free parking on the other side of the park, otherwise it`s 10 euro a day by the hotel. We would definitely go there again !!!
