Mukava kaupunki loma
Pros:

Aamiainen oli hyvä, ei erikoinen mutta ihan toimmiva. Etäisyys kuumassa lämpötilassa (40 astetta) hieman liian pitkä kävelleen vanhaan kaupunkiin mutta mahdollinen. Erittäin hyvä palvelu receptionissa ja muutenkin palvelu erinomaista. Altaan alueelle saisi tehoistaa tarjoilua. Kaiken kaikkiaan hyvä hotelli / palvelu

Cons:

Allas alueella voisi olla parempi tarjoilu, että ei tarvitsisi koko aika itse käydä tilaamassa sisältä, ongelma on pieni. Hinnat juomissa korkeammat kuin yleisesti Italian tasossa.

Pros:

Abbiamo soggiornato una notte all’Hotel San Marco e ci siamo trovati molto bene.

Vorrei ringraziare in modo particolare il personale per la grande gentilezza e attenzione dimostrata nei nostri confronti. Vedendo le difficoltà di mio marito, ci hanno proposto spontaneamente una camera più accessibile, con una doccia a filo pavimento, un gesto che abbiamo apprezzato davvero molto e che ci ha fatto sentire accolti con grande sensibilità.

Un altro punto di forza è sicuramente la colazione: ricchissima, con un’ampia scelta di prodotti freschi e di ottima qualità. Mi ha ricordato la colazione che si trova sulle navi da crociera, davvero eccellente.

Purtroppo non abbiamo potuto usufruire della piscina perché il motivo del nostro viaggio ci ha portati a cambiare programma, ma l’area ci è sembrata molto piacevole e ben curata.

La posizione è comodissima: appena fuori dalle mura di Lucca, permette di raggiungere il centro storico con una breve passeggiata, senza lo stress di dover utilizzare l’auto.

Se dovessimo tornare a Lucca, sarebbe sicuramente un hotel che prenderemmo di nuovo in considerazione.

I would come back
Pros:

Very friendly and helpful
Staff everywhere
Location into town was great

Cons:

Appreciate it’s difficult but trying to maximise the space around the pool would be good. Stop playing the music at the pool area - it’s nice just to have peace and quiet

Wonderful hotel
Pros:

Fabulous stay at this hotel, the staff were warm and welcoming, showing us around the hotel on our arrival. We stayed in the annexe and had a suite of rooms and a garden. the position of the hotel is perfect with an easy walk in to Lucca. We loved Lucca with some great restaurants and lovely squares, we especially loved Sotto Sotto. The breakfasts were very good and it was lovely to be able to sit outside in the lovely garden. It was nice to have a pool after a hot day sightseeing. We visited Florence during our stay using the train which worked perfectly. We would highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay again.

5 star customer service in a central hotel.
Pros:

Hotel San Marco is a well located , modern hotel close to the medieval walls of Lucca. The pool area provides much needed relief.
The staff in particular Fabio and Ina are the heart of this hotel. Their customer service was exceptional. From providing colouring in for the children to helping retrieve a stroller left behind in a taxi.
Breakfast and breakfast staff were great.

Cons:

Limited food options for lunch and dinner.
Only an issue if you are unable to leave property.
Pool is the same depth with only a ladder to climb to get in and out.
