Hotel Plaza e de Russie
In its privileged position overlooking the sea, across from historic theatres and cafés and the elegant Liberty-style buildings of the promenade, Hotel Plaza e de Russie is the oldest in Viareggio. Erected in 1871, it took the name “De Russie” in memory of the Russian nobility that frequented the beaches of Versilia and lived the glories of aristocracy and of the art movements of the turn of the century. The hotel was completely renovated in 1994 to once again become the point of reference in Viareggio for sophisticated Italian and international clientele, whether travelling for business or pleasure. The building conserves its original elegance, exalted by exquisite marble, Murano light fixtures, and precious fabrics.
The hotel's 50 rooms all have hardwood floors and cherry wood furniture, autonomous air conditioning, minibars, and satellite TV, and the bathrooms are decorated in travertine tiling. The delicate colors of the walls and the choice of fabrics for the upholstery and drapes help to create an elegant, relaxing atmosphere. The hotel's restaurant, La Terrazza, which gets its name from the hotel's splendid panoramic terrace, creates its delicacies, especially seafood, in a unique setting overlooking the landscape from Tino Island to the Livorno promontory, with the Apuan Alps behind you.
Hotel Plaza e de Russie is open year round and is the ideal starting point for visits to nearby Italian cities, such as the beautiful Pisa and Lucca, and to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the magical Versilia, without having to give up the summer pleasures of relaxing on the beach or by the pool. And a few short minutes away there is also a golf course which guests of the hotel are welcome to use. For business meetings, conferences, or seminars of up to 90 people, the hotel also has a bright, elegant hall (130sq.m) with ample natural lighting and all the latest technology.
