From a tourist point of view, the main asset upon which Pisa capitalizes refers chiefly to its historic edifices, to its cathedrals and churches and to its museums, not to mention the nearby beaches which make a good daytrip summer destination for visitors accommodated in Pisa. And despite the fact that only a precise category of tourists is intimately drawn to such objectives, namely, enthusiasts willing to disregard all the other tourism-related aspects, Pisa has its fair share of opportunities for visitors who want more than sightseeing from this Tuscan city. This assertion holds true with respect to accommodation too. Indeed, accommodation comes in many shapes in Pisa and it matches all pockets and tastes. Thus, luxury hotels are advisable for those who afford to splurge and who, at the same time, want to make a noise about having slept in a venue nearby the famed Leaning Tower, a privilege which, as expected, comes at a price.
Located close to the San Rossore Nature Park and only 900 meters from Piazza del Duomo, the Abitalia Tower Plaza luxury hotel knows how to make the best of its location and of its all fortunate features, among which the fact that it offers great views of the Leaning Tower is a major reason for enhancing the daintiness of this establishment. The facilities and the services offered by Abitalia Tower Plaza are typical for luxury hotels in general, ranging from Internet wireless connection and transport to the airport, to outdoor pool, room service, conference rooms and a restaurant, not to mention a spa center; briefly put, a package which lacks nothing in terms of prerequisites to splurging.
The Relais Dell’Orologio luxury hotel is, again, an establishment which manages not to fall short of its rating. The fact that it is located in the very heart of Pisa, close to the historic center of the city – which is always an incentive for guests wanting to tick of as much as possible of what Pisa has to offer in terms of tourist objectives – is not necessarily the main asset of this venue, though it is a significant feature. What is great about Relais Dell’Orologio is it stands on the emplacement of a former mansion dating back to the 14th century, and that the structure of this former establishment has been, in fact, used in view of designing the nowadays luxury hotel. The hotel has managed to maintain a strong dash of aristocracy, distinction and style, an air generated by the care with which all details – may it be with respect to furniture, walls, lighting or ceilings – have been considered. Modern comfort and facilities go without saying, and they mirror the typical package put forward by any other luxury hotel.
