We used Viareggio as a base for exploring Tuscany as it's close to Lucca and Pisa as well as being a resort in its own right. The Hotel Esplanade was a reasonably priced option so we were delighted to find ourselves upgraded to an apartment. So lots of space and comfort - with a balcony. The hotel was beautifully spacious,... More

We rented three quad rooms to see what the differences were. There were no appreciable ones aside from price. Go for the cheapest one! Rooms were clean bur rather minimalistic. Dated beds and bedding in bedrooms, and sofa beds were not the most comfortable. Tile/linoleum flooring in the rooms. Definitely not luxurious, but a family beach hotel. We really were... More

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... More

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... More

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...

The hotel was nice generally, the room was big, but the bath room is very tiny and inconvenient. When we arrived we were surprised that there is no bagnio but only a shower which is very small.. But when we asked to exchange it for a bigger room and pay for it they told us that ALL rooms are with... More

Stayed here in a two room apartment and was very impressed with the size of the rooms and quality of the furnishings. Staff friendly and helpful We were lucky enough to be given a room with a sea view at the side of the building with a beautiful and large balcony that covered both rooms. Nice position near the beach... More

I recently stayed at this hotel for 3 nights with a family of 4 and my parents. Two rooms. This was by far the BEST hotel room in my two weeks in Italy. The hotel room for my family of 4 (ages 16 and 13) had two rooms, a bathroom, and a patio. The family room had two beds and... More
