Hotel right beside the station . It is a busy area but our room which was at the front was very quiet at night. Room very spacious and clean . The owners were very friendly and I would recommend this hotel for exploring Lucca as it is just beside the city walls . Wished we had stayed for 2 nights . You could even use this hotel as a base for Pisa which is only half an hour away by train . Go up the towers in Lucca for great views and eat in the little restaurants in the squares .

An excellent experience with a family run hotel still headed by it's founder. A very fine hotel facility and an excellent location just two minutes from the rail station.

This is a very convenient hotel for jaunts into the walled city of Lucca as well as proximity to the train station. The personnel at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. They offer free bikes to ride inside the walls which was a big plus. The breakfast was very good with a good variety from which to choose. We would definitely stay here again. The only thing I can think of--and it shouldn't reflect on the hotel at all--is that it is on a very busy street and can be noisy with the windows open.

Location just outside the walls of Lucca & next to the train station and taxi rank. Room a little dark in terms of natural light.

The staff bend over backwards to help including advising on good restaurants for the late-night arrival. They give customers free bicycles for exploring the city. Breakfast is plentiful and well presented. There's a gelateria next door. Location's perfect for getting into Lucca and you can park at the hotel for free if you are driving. No bath in our room, only a shower. Hotel pillows - bleah!

A certain old-world charm makes this a pleasant place to stay as do the very helpful staff. The situation is perfect for visiting the city which is only a few minutes away by foot. Easy to find and despite being beside the train station, it is in a nice situation with a square in front. Small dining room but good breakfast. Some of the facilities are a bit tired and would not suit anyone looking for modern installations, even though they work.

The location was perfect just outside the wall making access to access to Lucca so easy. It is also only 2 mins walk from the railway station. Staff were helpful, continental breakfast was plentiful and tasty and bar prices affordable. Our room was clean and comfortable. I would reccommend The Rex to friends and family.

The hotel location was great, right next to the train station but not at all noisy. The breakfast was terrific and included in the rate. The hotel is family run and they made our stay very pleasant. The owner was so thrilled that we had family that lived in a near by village, he made us feel very welcome. The night clerk even called my cousin for me because of my limited Italian to make sure we had our plans straight to meet him the next day. Would absolutely stay again! Loved it.

I liked the location close to the railway station, you could literally see the hotel sign as you walk out of the station. To walk to the walls of the city it took 3 min. Also, the breakfast selection was excellent, do not miss it! I did not like the bathroom - the shower was way too small, water was not powerful enough, the hair drier was old.

I chose this hotel for its proximity to both the town of Lucca (in which I would spend most of my time) and the railway station (for arrival/departure and day trips.) The location was great as the hotel is just outside the Lucca city wall. The hotel itself was neat, clean, comfortable, very quiet, efficiently run, with a good large breakfast with many choices on offer. Free wifi and bicycles to borrow.

Steps from the Train Station and within walking distance to the City of Lucca. The breakfast was very good, alot of variety. The girl at the check-in desk took a phone call in the middle of our check-in and completely ignored us. She gave us a key and kept on talking, very rude ! The hotel was on the cross road of the main intersection and very noisy all night long. Motor Scooters, buses, cars, trucks, all changing gears and accelerating up the grade. Also, the hospital is close and we heard sirens and ambulances quite often. It did not matter if the windows were closed. The beds were uncomfortable and the bathroom was small and not very clean.

Comfortable well located hotel with friendly staff, free carparking. Being just outside the city walls it is easy for access (right next to the railway station and parking) yet a short walk into the city itself. One night was noisy due to some celebrations outside

Meget venligt personale der gjorde meget for at man skulle få et godt ophold. Centralt beliggende lige ved siden af Lucca Banegård. Lidt trafikstøj fra gaden. Til gengæld hørte man ikke støj fra banegården.
