Dining

Mascagni Restaurant is situated on the top floor of the hotel, affording it epic sea views; local and regional Italian dishes come highly recommended here. For a cheeky nightcap later, the bar is the perfect place to savour a fine selection of wines and spirits in a rarefied environment.

Wellness

The Wellness & Spa centre offers 800 square metres of space, all dedicated to relaxation. The facilities here include a sauna, Turkish bath, chromotherapy showers, relaxation areas and a tea room, as well as a tempting indoor heated swimming pool, which includes two waterfalls and whirlpools. There are seven cabins on hand for if you feel like indulging in a treatment, which are all designed to firm, cleanse, moisturise, slim or revitalise.

Location

The hotel is right on the waterfront, which means blockbuster Mediterranean sea views. Given Livorno’s relatively small size, the property is an easy walk along the promenade from the city centre and harbour, as well as the dazzling Terrazza Mascagni Piazza – an Instagram must. Livorno train station is just over four kilometres away, and the nearest airport, Pisa, is 25 kilometres away.
