We stayed at the Hotel Rex three nights this past May. It is right next to the Lucca train station and so very convenient for non-car travellers. But it is also only a two block walk to the walls and inner city of Lucca. Our room was very comfortable and the breakfasts were generous. The staff of this family-run hotel... More

We really liked this hotel. It is conveniently located to the train station and a short walk to get inside the walls of the old city. The rooms were modern (adequate plugins), quiet, and clean. The breakfast was good and the staff were friendly and fun. We loved Lucca and hope we can return someday.

If you're looking for an easy-to-find, moderate budget hotel, this is the place for you. The hotel is steps from the train station and about 200m from the main city gate. The room was a moderate size with a larger bathroom than the ones we had in Venice. The room was clean overall, but the grout in the bathroom could... More

Hotel Rex in Lucca is near the city wall, train station and lots of amenities. After a short drive from Pisa airport we had a smooth check in and a reserved car parking. Breakfast was good. Room was big, very clean with high ceiling however it needs a bit of updating but it is full of character.

I stayed at Hotel Rex as a complete accident. My friends were camping near Lucca, and so we were driving around trying to find me a hotel room nearby (I DO NOT camp - bad experience). We drove up and there is Hotel Rex literally two minutes walk from the train station. The patriarch (a very energetic young octegenarian) was... More

The hotel is located across a parking lot from the train station. It is across the street from access to the Lucca town wall. They have bicycles available to ride on the wall or wherever.

I would recommend the Hotel Rex in Lucca. It is a friendly family hotel and you are made to feel very welcome. The bedroom was air conditioned which was great. Very clean and tidy, and a great selection at breakfast, something for everyone! I have stayed in Lucca a few times and for me the Rex was ideally situated. It... More

Unfortunately, the Italian train employees staged a wildcat strile that Monday and all trains from Viareggio to Lucca were cancelled. So we caught a bus in the rain and dragged our luggage through the town. Two days later it was very convenient for our train to Siena via Florence. The room was good, clean and quiet, the breakfast was acceptable... More
