Convenient location but not that clean
The hotel was very conveniently located by the train station and the amenities were good. There is no lift which could be a bit of a struggle for some guests. The bedroom was fine with everything we needed, but the shower was not clean. It had a clogged drain and the tiles were very stained around the lower half. The shower pressure dropped very low if you wanted hot water. The walls are also a little thin but luckily our neighbours stopped watching TV at a reasonable time.

The room is fine for one night due to its proximity to the train station. But it's small. Felt a little claustrophobic. The AC did not work properly so I had a warm night in a stuffy room.

Fine hotel but a little overpriced
It is located very close to the train station for convenience, as we were train-hopping touring Italy. The room is OK with basics, clean and comfortable. It is within walking distance to the leaning tower. The cost is a little overpriced though.

Ticked all my boxes!
A good choice for our last night in Tuscany before heading for an early flight from Pisa. Less than 5 mins on foot from both train & bus stations & an easy 22min walk to the airport (& we’re in our 70’s!). Also an easy walk to the Tower, shopping & other points of interest. The hotel itself is older but well maintained by a friendly family & everything needed was there- A/C, WiFi, adequate breakfast & lovely starched white sheets on a comfortable bed. Ticked all my boxes & would happily return.

The hotel rooms look tired and dated but they are very clean and comfortable. If you want one or two nights then this hotel is perfect for you. The staff are welcoming, helpful and friendly and the hotel is perfectly located 2 mins walk from Pisa Centrale Station, 25 mins very pleasant ( for the most part) walk from the airport and about the same from The Tower. I would highly recommend a stay here to go and visit the sights as you get to see FAR more of the town than if you stayed on the other side of the River Arno, there are some wonderful bars, restaurants and shops to see on your walk. Make sure to visit Keith's Cafe, opposite Keith Harings final piece of art and Gli Sfusi for some excellent affordable wine 👍 both within two mins walk.

Good location that is close to Pisa Central Station and fast link to the airport. However I would not want to stay more than one night. The external shutter was drawn down over the window so that we could not see outside.

Close to train station and walkable to tower
Hotel is located within two blocks of the train station - which was great for an early morning train. About a 20-25 minute walk to tower area - there are city buses that go to the area if you don't want to walk. Good food choices in the area. Complaints would be that the daytime staff person seemed a little grumpy (only gave responses to specific questions and did not volunteer any information - including about breakfast) and no elevator (rooms are on "first" floor which requires a walk up narrow stairs - not real safe with large luggage). Not a high end hotel but it would do for a night or two.

One night in Pisa
We decided to stay in Pisa for a night and wanted to be near the train station for travel the following day. The cheapest option was a double room with shared bathroom, which I usually don't mind. Upon entry, we weren't welcomed warmly...but with a simple growl of "passports". We were then handed the keys and told we were on the second floor. There was no lift (an absolute NO for anyone with mobility issues). We entered the room. My eyes darted around. Something was missing...I was aware that the hotel didn't offer air conditioning, but it appeared that even during high summer (35°C, to be precise) all that was offered was a measly desk fan. A wave of disappointment (and sweat) came over me. My partner feebly assured me that 'it wasnt that bad' and 'maybe itll cool down later'. He then sat on the bed and lay back to find a paper thin pillow, and instantly took back his previous comments. I decided to check out the bathroom. Surely this would be the silver lining? This time, I was the one who was mistaken. The bathroom was clean, yes. There were 3 new toilet rolls provided which I thought would be ample for the 4 hotel rooms sharing this bathroom. Little did I I, that this single toilet and shower cubicle would be shared by approximately 10 rooms, some occupied by families. By the end of the evening there were about 8 sheets of toilet roll remaining and a queue to use the bathroom at all. Luckily, the sink provided in the hotel room gave my partner and I somewhere (tbc)

Good value for money hotel
Centrally located, right at the traffic light which you can turn left or right to historical sites especially the leaning tower. And just a two minutes from the train station. BF is so so but what else one can expect from this reasonable price for the pricey tourist city. Friendly and helpful staff

OK for short budget stay
Prices see-saw widely; -----at bottom end the room is basic but can be good value for the town for a short stay.. Would not be happy with higher rates. Location is acceptable for a base. It's a typical station area hotel, aimed (unsurprisingly) at train travellers where easy access to station is their only criteria.. Breakfast is adequate, but nearly all industrial wrapped bits & pieces. Pleasant staff and clean breakfast area.

A Convenient and Good Value Hotel
We were pleasantly surpprised at this Hotel. It is good value for the price charged. The Entrance Lobby and restaurant area are spotless. The Staff are very helpful and cheerful and gave us lots of good advice. We flew into Pisa Airport by Ryanair. After customs we joined a queue to a booking office to get caoch tickets to Pisa Centrale Staion. A young man beside us disappeared and found the Pisamover Bus stop. He returned to say we could buy tickets off the bus driver. So we turned around and walked left to the far end of the airport and outside where there ais a Gazebo with Pisamover Sign. We paid the driver of the small coach 2 x 1.5 (3) Euros and we were off. A few minutes later the coach reaches it's stop on a residential Road at the back of the station. Here again there are the Pisamover Gazebos. You walk down a pathway into the station. At the paltform turn left and go down into the subway under the tracks. At the far end, turn left up the stairs and go out onto the side road facing the station. At the end of this road is the side of the Hotel La Toure. From getting on thhe caoch at the airport to arriving at the hotel took about 12 minutes. We had Roon 420 on the top floor. It had a small ensuite with WC, bidet,sink and shower. It was seperated from the main room by a sliding door. The windows were double glazed and had sliding shutters between the two sets of windows. This isolated any traffic noise. We had no trouble from adjoining room noise.

Very functional but basic
It grew on me over four days, because it was very functional. Close to the station, which is quite central in Pisa (and airport bus stops there); good wifi - and they unhesitatingly gave me passwords for 3 devices; good working desk and chair in the room; good shower nozzle and lots of hot water; big towels. Decor low quality, though; poor breakfast; staff spent most of their time talking to each other - though friendly and helpful if you asked for anything. Good for the price, if you're a budget traveller, but not if you want to feel pampered!
