We did not book ahead but showed up at the hotel at noon in early October seeking a room. The man staffing the desk was very courteous and helpful and fluent in English and French. The room was adequate and very clean with modern furnishings. The AC worked well. The bathroom was adequate and clean and well supplied. There is... more

This is a very good 3 star hotel - just outside the walls in a quiet area, simple, practical, not beautiful, not pretentiious, efficiently managed by informative and always helpful staff. Rooms clean, pool clean - not a very large sitting/sunbathing area round it, but quite adequate. Air-conditioning in the bedrooms functioned properly, also wi-fi internet, free bicycles available, but... more

San Marco Hotel Lucca Italy July 2009 Reviewer a Very seasoned traveller from Northern Ireland We stayed at the San Marco Hotel in Lucca from Sat 25th July 2009 to the 28th July 2009. The Hotel was exellent and I never met as helpful and courtious staff they could not do enough for us and we do appreciate all they... more

We stayed here one night, kind of a last minute detour to our itinerary. The information center in town gave us a few choices and most were pretty pricey in town (150 Euros for a single room). The Hotel San Marco was 99 Euros and rated well, so we took it. Lucca is a walled city and the Hotel San... more

I was staying within the City walls at a friend's apartment which was charming but lacked a lot of creature comforts. So I looked around and found the Hotel San Marcos which was a charming boutique hotel that if I am not mistaken was an apartment building conversion about 2 years ago. It is about a 5 min walk to... more

Stayed here on the 28th of December for two nights. The hotel is very basic. The room was very spartan and a little dated,(bad nineties IKEA looking), but it was clean. The beds were a bit hard and very low to the floor. The bathroom was very basic, not luxurious in any way but very clean and the shower had... more

This hotel is very dated, with the rooms benig extremely basic, and poorly equipped. The price does not reflect the quality which in my opinion is poor. I would not stay again. On the plus side the staff were absolutely fantastic in every way, and the pool was lovely. more

If you want somewhere quaint and historic, then this hotel isn't for you. It's very modern; the bedrooms are small and a bit "corporate", but when you are in a city as beautiful as Lucca you don't want to spend time in your hotel room. It was clean with a good, modern bathroom, and bright and spacious public areas. The... more

In my opinion, this hotel is way too expensive for what you get. My family had 3 rooms for 2 nights. The rooms were clean, basic and quiet. The breakfast is not worth the 13 euros charged per person. All our other hotels included free breakfast for our 2 weeks in Italy. There is a nice outdoor patio along the... more
