We rang and booked the guest house when we were about half an hour away from Lucca. We drove our car into Lucca, unloaded the bags and then drove to a car park outside the city. There was a bit of a mix up initially when we got there and the room they showed us on the first floor was... more

The B&B smelt foisty and the room stank of cigarette smoke. The aircon was fractionally quieter that the twin engines of the 737 Boeing that brought us to Italy. It was impossible to sleep (room no. 5) when we turned off the air con and openned the window the noise from the pots & pans and workers in the kitchen... more

Jill and I stayed for 4 nights at Guest House San Frediano, which is situated in the heart of the old town. For visiting Lucca you would find it hard to better its location. The bedrooms are a good size and comfortably furnished. Our en suite was small but clean. The "little Italian breakfast" provided in the room is indeed... more

Guest House San Frediano was the worst hotel my girlfriend and I stayed in during our two week trip to Tuscany. Our stay got off to a bad start when we arrived at 13:01 and found that the staff were on a two hour lunch break. It seems they must have packed up and been out the door exactly at... more

Lucca is a beautiful town and this little guesthouse has a lovely homely feel which makes the town seem even quainter. The staff are lovely and happy to help, the rooms are clean if a little bare. the shared bathrooms are immaculate and whilst the breakfast was lacking, note it is guesthouse san frediano not bed and breakfast san frediano!... more

Gave us great recommendations for meals in Lucca and we loved the... more

The Guest House San Frediano is really conveniently located off the main street within the walls of Lucca. It's a very pretty place and the rooms are incredibly spacious and lovely. It's all very clean as well. The downside is the noise and the breakfast. There is a restaurant kitchen downstairs outside the window and you hear every plate and... more

Lucca - San Frediano Guest House September 2007 We have just returned from Lucca having stayed in the San Frediano Guest House. Whilst this is not a 5 star hotel, you must remember this is excellent value for money with kind and very helpful staff who have the time of day and inclination to help and advise wherever possible. The... more

We arrived and were shown our two rooms - decor nice, high ceilings, this was going to be good, we thought. We got back to our room at about 11pm and went to bed - to find that the bedding consisted of a sheet and a very thick, heavy decorative cover. Neither of which was at all suitable for early... more
