There is no Uffizi as Florence has or the wonderful Murano glass shops of Venice and it has no body parts of St. Catherine as Siena has, but it has the wonderful grandpa and his so very charming granddaughter ( and family staff that is Italian hospitality itself) who treated my wife and me as honored guests.

Hotel Rex is a very good hotel located right outside the Lucca Stazione (if you don't see it, then you exited out the wrong side of the Stazione and you need to go back! Yes, we did that....) and right across the street from the medieval city of Lucca. How we got there: We took the train from Genoa (after... More

If you are traveling by train, you can’t beat the Hotel Rex for convenience, as it is in the same piazza as the station, which itself is located just outside the city wall.
