Hotels in Lucca, Tuscany, Italy - Hotel San Marco

Hotel San Marco, Lucca

Lucca's Hotel San Marco is a sleek, modern hotel not far from the historic centre of the town, set in lovely gardens. Lucca itself is one of the most graceful Tuscan towns. Smaller than Florence or Pisa, the tight network of medieval streets is circled by proud Renaissance walls bordered with gardens. Everything here is on a modest, human scale and sightseeing is best done on foot ... in fact cars are not permitted in the ancient centre. Pisa, Florence and Siena are within easy reach and the surrounding countryside is some of the most beautiful in all Italy.

Built in 1992, the hotel's design combines pared-down modern styling and classic Italian elegance. There are 42 bright, simply furnished modern rooms, all air-conditioned and with en-suite facilities, satellite/cable TV, direct-dial phone line, internet modem link and a well-stocked minibar. Rooms overlook either the pretty hotel garden or the attractive villas of the quiet San Marco district.

As well as 24-hour service on reception, the hotel has its own currency exchange and travel reservation service plus left-luggage and safety-deposit facilities. Efficient, attentive staff are happy to help with planning itineraries and can offer advice on some of the many cultural activities on offer in Lucca. There is a stylish lounge/bar as well as a cafe serving light snacks. The hotel swimming pool is open between April and October. Car-parking is free and all major credit cards are welcome.
