Hotel Rex's staff are friendly and helpful. There is construction right out front so the view wasnt great but they didn't start working til 9ish so it was not disruptive. Location is close to entrance to Lucca and they are working on making it more pedestrian friendly.

Nice convenient hotel
Nice hotel beside the railway station and a few minutes from the centre of Lucca. So a superb location for a couple of days visit. Friendly staff, clean room and satisfactory breakfast. Room small but adequate.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Location is good. Just right outside train station and 5minutes walk to the walls. Rooms a bit dated but good size and functional with a mini fridge. Shower was fine and room keeping did a good job each day. Breakfast was average but think it was free so can’t complain. Bread, hard boiled eggs, selection of pasties and selection of cereals. Air con broke in our room so we’re moved room immediately. Staff were very good and did their best to help us get to Florence as train strike and no buses on a Sunday

5 minutes walk from the railway station in Lucca and only 5 minutes walk to the walled city. The Rex hotel was very clean and comfortable throughout, the staff were friendly and attentive to our needs, as my wife is disabled. The continental breakfast was adequate with no limit on eating.

A wonderful hotel. A perfect location, between the railway station and the town walls, only a couple of minutes walk from the cathedral. Sizeable, clean and well‐appointed rooms, a generous breakfast and incredibly welcoming at reception. Highly recommended.

Interesting hotel. Old world charm. Could use some updating. Next to the train station and easy access to the town. Good breakfast I’ve been in six hotel rooms on this trip and they all needed a fan.

We spent 5 nights at Hotel Rex and would happily stay there again. The location is very convenient to the train station and very close to the entrances to Lucca. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff was friendly and welcoming, and the breakfast buffet was delicious.

Staff was outstanding. So friendly and helpful. We arrived early so they kept our bags while we headed to Pisa. The room was large with comfortable beds and crisp linens. The decor is definitely “unique”. We had a chuckle and thought it was fun. They have lots of little nooks with books, baskets of cookies and Knick knacks. Very kid friendly with a few toys in our room. The breakfast was delicious with a large choice of pastries, meats, cheeses, yogurt, juices, coffee and cappuccino, cereals, toast, fruit and much more. Steps from the station and the gate into town. Close to good restaurant(s). We loved the staff and our stay.

Very clean, quaint hotel, warmly greeted at the front desk, large room with A/C, kettle, tv, breakfast. Outside the wall, just a few feet from the train station (we had booked an early train so this was convenient). Would definitely recommend.
