This hotel is really unique. A beautiful place to base yourself for a stay in Lucca. The breakfast was perfect, and served by two charming ladies. The owner and his wife were very friendly and helpful aswell. I can thoroughly recommend

Hosts who are charming, accomodating and helpful, rooms that are large and distinctive, a great location, satisfying breakfast and nothing to complain about.

8.1

The Blue Room was the largest of the rooms offered at La Romea. It was listed as a quad room,, but this is only true if you are traveling with your kids. They will bring in a couple of twin beds. Our problem was...we were two couples and made the stay a bit crowded. Other than that, this was an excellent B&B. The Blue Room was very large as was the unique bathroom. The breakfast was the best of our 13 day trip to Italy. The biggest problem with Lucca is parking. You cannot park within the actually city walls...so it's a hassle to drive to their B & B ...drop off the luggage and find a place to park many minutes from the lodging. I would say the process of check in (when dealing with the parking) was about an hour. But don't hold that against La Romea. That would be the case with any stay within the historic city center. Once you are in and situated...it's a great city to visit. The La Romea was an excellent stay.

We were very pleased with our accomodation and with the walled city of Lucca. Giulio and Gaia were excellent hosts and the breakfasts included eggs done the way we wished, fresh fruit salad,yogurt,tomatoes and basil,cheese, ham and a variety of breads and toasts. They were the best breakfasts we had on our holiday. The room was clean and the bathroom large, clean and well stocked with shampoos,soap etc. Giulio and Gaia were most helpful with directions, making restaurant reservations, checking on bus schedules and calling for a taxi on our departure. We have nothing but positive experiences and comments about La Romea in Lucca.

All of us thought the breakfasts were the best we have had anywhere, and the hosts could not have been more welcoming. Would definitely go back there and recommend to friends.

We had a fabulous family reunion here. The host and hostess were very accomodating, even when we showed up needing an extra cot. Breakfast buffet was bountiful. The fresh fruit was beautiful. Loved the shower floor of bumpy rocks in the red room.

9.9

La Romea was an ideal place to stay in Lucca. We were directly in the center of the walled city, within a 10 minute walk of everything. The innkeepers were absolutely wonderful. They helped us recover lost luggage, provided us with a great breakfast every day, and assisted us with our sightseeing plans. Our room (the suite) exceeded our expectations. It was perfect for us and our two children. We would absolutely return. Advice: Enjoy Lucca! Plan on spending at least a few days there.

Gaia and Guilio were extremely helpful and attentive.

It was a pleasure to stay at this hotel. We were made extreemly welcome by the owners who put themselves out to help us. They picked us up within 5 minutes of calling for the parking. Beautiful rooms and excellent breakfast. Central within 15 minutes walk of anywhere in Lucca. You could not wish for a better place and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Would return anytime

Wonderful place to stay, great breakfast too

9.6

My wife,myself and our two friends enjoyed thoroughly " La Romea Residenza d'Epoca",its hearthy atmosphere, the warm welcome and many friendly attentions of its owners and the efficient service. We will highly recommend La Residenza to all our friends and relations.

10

It started with the host showing up within 3 minutes, not the 5 promised to pick us up from the parking. Every other aspect of our stay exceeded expectations also. Lucca and La Romea was our favorite part of our vacation, because of the lovliness of the place and the graciousness of the host and hostess. It was such a contrast from the subsequent hotels that we stayed in. We loved it! Larry, Lysa, and Jessica Ayres

9.9

A charming hotel. The owners are friendly and extremely helpful.

I had reservations about booking on the internet but this place was beautiful. The host and his family were very inviting and helpful. The area was right in the middle of walled Lucca and very close to many great resturants. Overall if we go to Lucca again we will make it a point to stay there. I highly reccomend this B&B, good luck.

9.8

Giulio and Gaia, the proprietors, were exceptional in being available and helpful for all our needs. The breakfast was superb and the entire staff were all gracious and accommodating. I will definitely return to La Romea Residenza d'Epoca for future stays in Lucca.

8.2

The owners of the property certainly has good command of knowledge and information. Their recommendation on restaurants is excellent. Breakfast is fantastic - real italian coffee with fruits and cakes freshly prepared and of superior quality.

9.6

This is a lovely, lovely B&B with wonderful hosts for whom nothing is too much trouble. The location is also superb, right in the middle of Lucca. The only reason I won't say any more is because if this hotel becomes as popular as it deserves to be, we won't be able to book in next time we return!

Wonderful accomadations in the heart of ancient Lucca. Close to all the sights, shopping and restaurants. Gaia and Giulio are great hosts that provide excellent service. A great place to stay.

9.8

We only stayed for one night, but the room was very comfortable and clean. It is right in the middle of Lucca, so was very convenient to all sites. The hosts were fantastic, and the breakfast was the best that we had in Italy. Would highly recommend staying at La Romea.

9.8

As a couple not new to Italy but new to Lucca we were really delighted with the quality and service provided by Giulio and Gaia (proprietors)in this central location. The feel is that of a "family home", without the intrusiveness. The accomodation is both spacious and authentic. It is an ideal place to stay to explore Lucca. We woud personally recommend it to family and friends without hesitation, and will be back.

9.6

this was an excellent and homely b+b to stay in and was excellent for our honeymoon

9.8

Our night at La Romea was the best of a lovely holiday in Italy. We thought the property was absolutely beautiful, the hosts friendly and professional and we have already recommended La Romea to friends and colleagues.

8.6

This hotel is very well positioned for sightseeing, and the owners do their utmost to make your stay a good one. The B&B nature (few guests) of the place (e.g. breakfast time) might not be for everyone, though the breakfasts themselves are wonderful!

10

Best place we've ever been to . Giulio & Gaia are excellent hosts. Looking forward to going back next year. I would recommend la romea to anybody.

8.2

Very nice informal hotel at an A location in the centre of Lucca. We were picked up from and brought to a parking outside the walls, good service. Nicely decorated rooms. A bath would have been nice for that price of 135 euro though, but it was a big room.

9.9

I was impressed by the photographs featured on the website, but when we arrived they didn't do the hotel justice, it was even better than i could have imagined. My girlfriend fell in love with Lucca and the hotel. We will be going back.

LaRomea is fantastic - a very unique experience.

La Romea was one of the nicest places we stayed in during 6 weeks in Italy. Guilio and Gaia were extremely friendly and helpful while we were there and also in our e-mails. They made dinner suggestions and reservations for us as well getting bus schedules and any other information we needed. The room and bath were huge and the whole place was beautifully decorated by Gaia. It was very well located within the old city walls and close to all the sights. I would stay there again. Request the red suite if you want something really special. All the rooms we saw were great.

10

Our stay at La Romea was just wonderful. Giulio and Gaia were very helpful and informative. Giulio actually met our car loaded our luggage into his and showed us where to park. They were excellent hosts and we had the best breakfast in the two weeks we spent in Italy. Our location was just perfect b/c we were right next to Via Fillungo and the center of Lucca. I would certainly return to La Romea if I go back to Lucca.

10

The perfect place to stay. Relaxing and welcoming without being intrusive.

9.9

Pretend you are at home at this wonderful spot-get the scoop on restaurants and sights, here in the middle of it all. And your hosts are the best-You'll hate to leave.
