"Hotel Bologna is the ideal base for exploring Pisa and the wider Tuscany region. Only a 10 minute taxi ride from the airport and an easy, short walk to the railway station, Hotel Bologna is ideally situated. The must-see leaning Tower of Pisa is no more than 15 minutes walk and there are many other attractions along the nearby riverfront and beyond.
It is very close to the Corso Italia where there are some great shops and places to eat.
We loved the Museo delle Navi or Museum of Ancient Ships and found this thanks to a really helpful taxi driver who recommended it as a must-see. It is a fascinating history of Pisa's role as an ancient maritime city with hulls of Roman galleys and archaeological finds making this a captivating couple of hours.
Travelling by train is easy and Florence is only an hour away for a small fare of 9 euros.
The hotel is situated in a quiet street in the centre of Pisa. Rooms are spacious and comfortable and reception staff so friendly and helpful. The biggest selling point is the breakfast buffet with a vast array of delicious pastries, cold meats, cheeses and hot food. I would go back in a heartbeat for the pistachio croissants!
