Basic accommodations but 5-star staff

A family-friendly place to stay: The "double quadruple" room had 4 twin beds, two of which were licated in a kind of loft; the room was supplied with kids' games and toys. Fabulous breakfast. The receptionist was extremely helpful in finding information and making recommendations for us during a train strike that (pardon the pun) derailed our plans. The location, between the old city walls and the train station, was convenient and surprisingly quiet. Things were pretty basic in the room. Decor was haphazard and the closet space pretty tight. No iron or ironing board. Teeny shower. But we were not there for the amenities, and the staff was terrific.

Location - excellent for public transport. We used bus and train to reach the hotel and both stopped at the Stazione which is a 3 minutes walk to the hotel. The hotel is good and affordable. Staff was very helpful storing the luggage, giving information and even a plug because ours did not work.

Brilliant family stay!

Our family had a fantastic stay at this charming hotel in Lucca! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome—warm, attentive, and always ready to help with local tips or extra towels. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the city’s cobbled streets and historic sites. Mornings were a treat thanks to the generous breakfast spread: fresh pastries, fruit, eggs, and delicious Italian coffee that kept us going all day. The location was ideal—quiet yet close to everything, including the city walls and lovely piazzas. It’s rare to find a place that balances comfort, hospitality, and value so well. Whether you’re travelling with kids or just looking for a peaceful getaway, this hotel hits all the right notes. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in Lucca!

It was like stepping back in time very old hotel with decor from 1960 ish . The bed was very hard the Airconditioning didn’t work properly. The cleaning staff and lady in breakfast room were lovely along with the receptionist. The gentleman that did the night shift was very cranky. The shower was only a very low low to no pressure. The hair dryer was from the 60s could dry hair . It’s very convenient to rail way station.

Best equipped 3 star hotel on our 14 day Italy trip. Kettle and tea in the room, biscuits available. Very good breakfast choice and 2 minute walk from the train station and 5 minutes from the amazing city walks.

The location right next to the train station is so convenient (couple blocks to the walled portion of the city). The staff appears to be a family, super cute and helpful. Rooms are pretty large. The beds were maybe not the best but we'd totally stay here again given all the other benefits. Breakfast was delicious and varied with many options. This hotel is a gem!

Central hotel with free breakfast

This hotel is very close to the train station and very central to the walls. The staff were particularly lovely. The hotel could do with some updating. The breakfast was varied but the doughnuts were a bit stale. I particularly enjoyed sweets at breakfast. The shower was small and we kept knocking it off, also the shower needed updating. Room was a large size and bed massive an clean.
