"La location è meravigliosa e suggestiva: una antica villa in mezzo ai colli, adiacente ad una chiesetta. La stanza che mi è stata data si trova all'ultimo piano, con bagno riservato anche se non in camera. "

Beautiful hotel! The restaurant had fantastic food and the pool area was great. The breakfast left something to be desired, but everything else was perfect!

This is not a picture-postcard villa with glorious views in the heart of town. It's a super-clean, well-managed, airy, Best Western with free parking, helpful staff, good restaurant, free internet, and fine breakfast, 10 minutes by car from Lucca and a good jumping-off base for driving to other sites in the area. Good value for the money.

Just had 24 hours to spend in Lucca. It was a great stay, the staff was very helpful from the moment we arrived. Franco, who took us to our room doubles as the hotel bartender at night. We enjoyed his company while we had a pre and post dinner aperitif. The hotel was perfectly located, easy access off the A11, shopping starts as you make a right out of the front door. The room was bigger than we expected, bed was very comfortable. Breakfast the next morning was wonderful. Had a delicious and...

The staff couldn’t have been kinder or more helpful. The property is so unique and we loved our loft room that had plenty of space for our family of 5. Highly recommend taking the bikes they have available to ride around the city. One of our trip highlights!

The hotel is charming, intimate, and very well staffed. From a lovely, abundant breakfast spread with friendly and efficient staff to a roster of well-informed, helpful and friendly front desk/check-in staff, you are pleasantly surprised at every turn. At check in, upon seeing an elderly person with a cane in the party, we were immediately offered a room with easy access from the lift -- very thoughtful. The front desk handled some problems with restaurant reservations that i had made, and...

Grace&Julia are the most gracious hosts, they were so welcoming and helpful. The collazione was perfect, you can order your choice of coffee and in my case eggs done your way. The room where we spent 2 nights was spacious and super clean. Very quiet with a comfy bed. Lucca's historic center is not very far. Altogether this is one of the best experience we've had in our month long Italian visit! Highly recommended! 💯

The Palazzo Alexander is the most accommodating place we stayed at on our trip. Mario is a true gentleman who is a wealth of information. This is a great hotel in a lovely town.

The hotel is located very near the autostrade and outside the walled city. Access is easy and direct. Staff were multi lingual and friendly. English was not a problem. Parking is free. Breakfast is served as a buffet and you do need to notify if you intend to partake. It is 13euros. There is a good variety, but it is the same every day. There is an espresso/coffee machine. Nothing available to order.
