Five Roses Bed & Breakfast

A lovely welcome from Flavia awaits. Good communication pre stay, Flavia made sure she was there to meet us despite a late night arrival. Good instruction on the options to get to the accommodation from Pisa airport. The accommodation is well located, within 5 minute walk of Pisa Centrale Railway station, 1st floor above the shops on the main shopping street. Near plenty of eateries and within walking distance of all the main sites. Immaculately clean with everything you need for a city break, towels, toiletries, tea making facilities in the room. Bedding and towels changed daily and the room serviced daily. Plenty of choice for breakfast from boiled eggs to croissants to toast, yogurt, cheese, meat and plenty to drink etc with a wide ranging time slot. The only downfall if you are a light sleeper is the street can be noisy especially when the eateries are closing and opening with street furniture being dragged and moved and people shouting. We had to have the window open as it was warm when visiting which enhanced the street noise but we are good sleepers so didn't affect us. Maybe bring earplugs so you can sleep through the noise as the B & B is beautiful and a warm welcome awaits.

Our stay at Five Roses could not be bettered. Flavia was the most helpful of hosts, she went out of her way to look after us, and enabled us (both vegetarians) to enjoy meals at two excellent, traditional restaurants. She also advised us to visit some interesting sights we might not otherwise have visited. Our room, the Yellow Rose, was enormous and very comfortable. Flavia has refurbished these 17th century rooms in authentic, yet up to the date style. The window overlooked the street cafes, previously mentioned, but the soundproofing, once the window was shut, was 100%. The bathroom was also spacious and beautifully equipped and spotless. We slept well in the large bed, and the room (almost an apar**ent with seating and dining areas, kitchen sink, fridge, kettle, crockery etc) had good lighting, which is not always the case. You are able to choose in advance, from a wide range, whatever you want for your breakfast. Five Roses is heartily recommended.

We booked Five Roses on the back of other TA reviews so thank you everyone. Flavia is an absolute delight. She pointed out numerous places to visit with a map for us. She was incredibly welcoming and friendly. Our room was very spacious, clean and well appointed. Much better in reality than the photos actually. With sound proofed windows. To have breakfast in our room each morning was a nice surprise too. Fantastic continental breakfast spread. Bed was so comfy. We slept well! Great location just 5 mins walk from the train station. Would absolutely return. Thank you Flavia!

Excellent accommodation with an excellent host. Very clean, cosy and modern. Close to the train station easy access from there to the airport. Breakfast was very nice. Would go back and would highly recommend. 20-25 min walk to leaning tower but a nice walk with plenty to see.

Location was fantastic.. within the immediate shopping district in central Pisa. Flavia was an amazing host and was extremely helpful. The rooms were spotlessly clean and spacious and you did not hear any noise from the outside. I would recommend staying here to anyone and we will certainly be back.

We have been travelling to Tuscany for many years and staying at Five Roses is the perfect place for us. It is ideally situated being only a five minute walk from the station and only a twenty minute walk to the Tower. The apar**ents are spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable with large, well equipped rooms. However, the real star of the show is Flavia who is the perfect host- nothing is too much trouble. She always makes our stay amazing whether it’s recommending and booking restaurants; suggesting day trips or taking the time to check train/bus timetables. If you want more than just a place to stay then Five Roses should be top of your list.

Five Roses was the perfect overnight stop for us! Flavia is very accommodating and a great communicator. The room and Inn had everything we wanted to make for a comfortable relaxing stay. The B&B is in a great location. It is in a pedestrian zone and Flavia let us know where to park close by. It is a 20 minute walk to the Leaning tower. She made us dinner reservations at a wonderful restaurant about a 10 minute walk away. The breakfast was great-all very fresh and plentiful-coffee made just the way you like it. Flavia even helped us prepare a a lunch - adding to our leftovers to make sandwiches for our continued journey. I definitely recommend Five Roses! Thank you Flavia!

We really enjoyed our stay at The Five Roses and Flavia was the perfect host. Our room was very spacious and clean and the breakfast was tasty and plentiful. Enough to set you up for the whole day. The B&B is only a few minutes walk to the train station and about ¼ hour to the Tower. The buildings entrance is on the main shopping precinct but the rooms are very well sound proofed. Good nearby restaurants recommended by Flavia where La Buca and Galileo. Florence is only an hours train ride away. Remember to punch your tickets with the validating machine at the station before getting on the train though. Great pizza at Florence can be found at Gustarium. If you are looking for somewhere nice to stay whilst in Pisa, look no further than The Five Roses. You won’t be disappointed.
