A real Gem of a hotel.
We found this hotel to be a real gem. The staff could not have been more helpful in every way, the breakfast plentiful and the situation tranquil and room clean and comfortable. We would love to return some day!

I stayed one night on a road-trip. Booked at a last minute, things went smoothly with good service (you can rent bicycles which is great) and a good restaurant and overall quiet place/area. Decent rooms too. Great for those who are looking for a quiet place.

nice, quiet hotel
Away from the hustle and bustle of the beach strip, this quiet, somewhat hidden hotel offers a relaxing atmosphere. Bikes are free to rent, ping pong and a swimming pool. Breakfast was okay. We did not choose the full meal plan. Staff speaks only little English, but helpful. The only downside is the small shower, that can be challenging even for everyone. Internet very spotty and slow, but okay in lobby.

Relaxing Peace and Quiet
We stayed at The La Bussola for 10 days, the staff at the hotel were very accomodating and couldn't do enough to make our stay enjoyable. The Hotel is based in a very quiet area we did not have a car but were able to get the local buses into Forte Dei Marmei to get the train or other buses to various Towns/Cities. You can have bike supplied from the Hotel if you want to stay local and cycle around the lanes which is perfectly safe. The breakfast is a continental breakfast not your usual egg/bacon which most people expect, it was enough for us to have at breakfast. we did not do the evening meal as we like to eat out etc. Overall a very pleasant stay if you are looking for peace and quiet then this is the place for you.

A Great Place to Relax
Hotel La Bussola is located in a quiet area off the beaten path, yet easily accessible to the activities in the area. The location, the staff, the food and the facilities are all excellent. We used this location to travel Cinque Terre. We booked Hotel La Bussola for two days, but enjoyed it so much that we stayed five days. We traveled Central Europe for five weeks and this was our most pleasant accommodations..

Very nice country-style hotel
A pleasant hotel in a very quiet wooded area near the beach of Massa, just north of Pisa. The staff were friendly and attentive and spoke excellent English, excellent buffet breakfast too. Easy to access the major attractions in the area from this hotel. Parking is free and ample.

Quiet neighborhood, great choice for families
Family run hotel. Staff was accommodating, however at times difficult to communicate with. Very nice pool makes this a great choice for families. Walk or bike to beach. Easy train ride to Cinque Terre, but having a car to get back and forth to train station and dinner locations is a must. Breakfast was adequate, however not nearly as good as some other hotels in Italy we visited. Would definitely consider staying here again on future trips.

Great value family hotel
Nice hotel with a good pool. We had dinner there two out of three nights which was tasty local cuisine for a bargain price. Drinks were well priced too. If you're travelling with little ones this place works well as they can either join you for dinner or the dining room is close enough to the rooms for your monitor to function. The hotel is a little gem.

A hidden gem
This was a great find. A hidden hotel at a great location (close to the beach and a train station, short drive to the Cinque Terre and Pisa). The hotel was very clean and the service by this family-owned crew was amazing. The restaurant had great food and a very good price, so we didn't even go out to dinner. The pool was perfect for the kid to play in and for us to cool down. Overall an excellent experience.

A great place to stay near Massa
This is an inexpensive, ideal hotel for anyone passing through Massa or indeed a family staying at this resort. Its a little way out of the centre of town in a quiet residential neighbourhood , easy to find and with good parking. The hotel has bicycles for hire , swimming pool and was set in lovely gardens. The breakfast buffet was generous and the evening meal was traditional italien fare at a very reasonable price. Whilst the rooms were very clean they were a little 'well worn' and 'basic'. We found the staff attentive and friendly and enjoyed our overnight stay.

Super Bom! Atendimento ótimo e todas as dependências e setores do hotel devidamente e primorosamente bem cuidadas. Quarto confortável com sacada e iluminado! Resolvemos jantar no hotel e adoramos o cardápio. Menu bem servido e caprichado. O senhor que nos atendeu além de muito culto muito simpático e nos deu dicas e referências para visitarmos as cidades de Carrara (mármores) e Lucca. Saimos felizes e descansados para continuarmos nossa jornada.

Тихое место для отдыха вдвоём
Отель очень понравился, всё соответствует описанию. Тихое, уютное местечко в глубине жилой зоны. Никакого шума машин по ночам. Своя, довольно просторная парковка. До моря не 2 шага, но вполне можно прогуляться 300 метров или доехать на машине и встать на бесплатную парковку около общественного пляжа, нам везло, всегда было свободное место. В отеле есть отличная опция - бесплатный прокат велосипедов, их много и в хорошем состоянии. Мы с мужем с огромным удовольствием катались по окрестностям, тем более, что все местные жители занимаются велоспортом. Бассейн в отеле очень красивый и благоустроенный, искупаться не удалось, так как вода показалась прохладной (на море теплее), но позагорали отлично. Завтраки обычные, итальянские - нет горячего совсем, но остального достаточно, чтобы наесться. Персонал приветливый.

Validissimo tre stelle
Soggiornato 2 notti in periodo di bassa stagione a un prezzo molto vantaggioso. Struttura immersa nella pineta, con ampia area verde, piscina, bici a disposizione, comodo parcheggio, wi-fi performante. Ambienti comuni curati. Camere corrette, bagni forse un po' datati, ma lindi e con tutto l'occorrente. Una menzione speciale per la colazione: nonostante fossimo pochi clienti, abbondante e varia, decisamente sopra la media. Consigliato!

Hotel molto carino e personale molto cordiale, le camere mancano sostanzialmente di illuminazione... Le applique infatti lasciamo l'ambiente semi buio, a mio giudizio, fastidioso, avrei preferito avere sufficiente luce per poter lavorare al pc. Inoltre mi sarebbe piaciuto trovare il frigobar acceso. Per contro mi hanno fatto piacere trovare l'acqua omaggio in camera e la colazione che era superlativa. Nel complesso comunque molto consigliato

La Bussola är ett trevligt hotell med väldigt lugnt läge och ändå nära till stranden. Rummen var lite små men det fanns gott om gemensamma utrymmen och en härlig pool. Vi kunde äta middag till ett mycket bra pris och maten var lite varierande men överraskande bra för det mesta. Stor parkering med plats för alla gäster. Vi kan tänka oss att bo där igen om vi kommer till det området.
