About

Il Silenzioso

Il Silenzioso is a single one-bedroom apartment tucked into a quiet vicolo in the centre of Pisa. Its position is the headline: Knights' Square is about a five-minute stroll, the Leaning Tower is the same, and the National Museum of Saint Mathew is a 16-minute walk. Despite the central setting, the apartment is described as peaceful, making it a practical base for exploring on foot.

The apartment is equipped for longer stays, with a full kitchen (kettle, cookware, dining table), a washing machine, tea and coffee facilities, and a flat-screen TV. Air conditioning, heating and soundproofed rooms keep it comfortable year-round, and a lift means no stairs to manage. Guests consistently highlight the helpful, responsive host and the ease of check-in.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable central location — Both the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Knights' Square are about a five-minute stroll away, and Pisa Centrale station is within easy walking distance.
  • Quiet despite the centre — Guests describe the apartment as peaceful and silent, even though it sits in the heart of the city.
  • Responsive and helpful host — Edoardo is repeatedly mentioned for warm welcomes, fast WhatsApp replies, early check-in and late checkout, plus practical advice on parking and the area.
  • Well-equipped for families — The apartment includes a kitchen, washing machine, cots, safety bars and a sofa bed, with several guests noting it suited a family of four.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Vintage decor throughout — One guest felt the seating area was like stepping back to the 1960s, so expect a style that's more retro than modern.
  • Views are limited — A guest mentioned the views from the windows were not great; the courtyard outlook is pleasant but not the main draw.
  • No on-site parking — The property doesn't list parking as an amenity, so guests driving in will need to rely on the host's advice for local options.
  • Single-room apartment only — With just one apartment, availability is limited and the experience is entirely dependent on this one unit.

“It met all our needs and I'd recommend it. The room was comfortable with a desk, coffee and tea facilities, and a TV. We looked onto a courtyard. Check-in was easy and the staff were very kind. Great location near the medieval cathedral and very close to the main attractions, shops, restaurants and the station.”

“We loved the apartment's city-centre location, so close to the main sights, shops and restaurants. It was spacious, well-equipped and had everything a family needs. The owner was great, quick to respond and even let us check in early.”

“A family-friendly spot near the Leaning Tower. The location was superb, with the tower just 850 metres away, so our children could easily see it. The apartment was central but quiet, tucked away in Nel Vicolo, giving us a peaceful base.”

8.8Verified guest

“We had a fantastic stay in the heart of Pisa. Edoardo was a warm host who gave us detailed local tips. The apartment was big, clean and well cared for, with safety bars for kids. The kitchen had modern appliances, the bedroom a large queen bed with comfy pillows, and the sofa bed in the studio was just as good. The bathroom was clean and modern. We felt right at home.”

Getting around Pisa

The property sits in Pisa.

Leaning Tower & Piazza del Duomo: About a five-minute walk away, the Leaning Tower and the surrounding cathedral square are the obvious draw. Expect crowds, but you can be there before most day-trippers arrive.

Knights' Square: Also five minutes on foot, this historic square is a quieter spot to take in Pisa's Renaissance architecture.

Pisa Centrale: The main railway station is within easy walking distance, making this a handy base for arriving by train or taking day trips along the Tuscan coast.
