Convenient is the best description for this Westin. There’s an airport shuttle that picks you and drops you off. I stayed in Room 640, a very sad and bunker-like executive suite. The living area is clean with a couch and small table with two chairs. There’s a wide screen TV. No windows and quite claustrophobic. There’s an alcove in the living room that’s empty. I wish they placed a microwave in there. There is a refrigerator in the room. Bedroom is standard. Bed and pillows are comfy. They have an ice machine on this floor but there’s no ice bucket in the room. Complimentary breakfast is highlight of this stay. Grill & Vine restaurant had great staff and good buffet selection. Overall, it’s a hotel built for people who missed their flights or on long layovers.

Beyond the Leaning Tower and the Duomo, Pisa offers a wealth of attractions. Take a stroll along the Arno River, visit the historic Piazza dei Cavalieri, or explore the Piazza delle Vettovaglie, a lively square lined with cafes and markets. Pisa is also home to prestigious universities, contributing to a vibrant student atmosphere and a range of cultural events throughout the year.
