The Hotel
Recently built to four-star requirements, The Hotel Republica Marinara acquires a simple elegance in soft pastel tones and classic furnishings. The chefs offer an inventive take on traditional Tuscan cookery, matching seasonal fare to an extensive wine list of local favourites. Being close to the centre of Pisa, the hotel also enjoys an enviable location at the heart of this medieval maritime power hub.
The Stay
After dropping their bags at the hotel, you may wish to dive straight out into the Pisan afternoon, returning to en suite rooms furnished with wooden floors and striking colour themes. Those who opt for the tour of the Leaning Tower can explore the delights of its angled medieval eccentricity, also taking the time to stroll the elegant grounds in which it is located.
Groupon Recommends
The Leaning Tower is a top attraction, often eclipsing the other architectural examples of Pisa's medieval golden age. Close by in the Campo dei Miracokli stand the Duomo, Baptistry, and the Gothic cloisters of the Camposanto, where the walls were once covered in frescoed masterpieces. Visitors may be interested in taking the weight off their legs by embarking on a bus tour of the city, which covers important aspects of its history, or heading to the University for a peek at one of the medieval foundations of modern learning, the very same academy where Galileo taught.

Reviews
Hotel Repubblica Marinara was awarded an encouraging 3.5/5 from TripAdvisor users, while Booking.com reviewers gave the hotel a warm 7.9/10. Though a few visitors felt it was a little far from the centre of town, guests complimented the regular shuttle buses, friendly staff, and high standard of cleanliness.
Very nice hotel about 15 minutes walk from the centre of town (regular bus routes shorten this to less than 10mins to city centre or station). Very good value for money and the staff are all very friendly.

Good reception staff, the room was large and clean, the bathroom was large and comfortable, and a good restaurant.
