Of all of our hotels in Italy, this was by far the most grand for the value. We enjoyed made to order breakfast, great communication regarding parking and navigating the city, and incredibly kind and helpful staff. This was also the best air conditioning we found during the June heat wave, and we slept so comfortably!

We arrived as per usual bad travel rules and parked where we thought we were instructed to park-the staff was so helpful! The son of the owner literally jumped in our car and personally escorted my husband to the right parking area. While he was gone the owner reassured me, showed me in a map where everything was and another young man helped me with our bags to our room (and yippee they had an elevator). The room was awesome, the location ideal-a perfect way to end our trip to Italy!

My daughter and I just walked in the door from a 2 week European vacation and it's unanimous that this was our favorite stay our entire trip. The hotel has a lovely old world Italian charm and the room was surprisingly roomy given the other hotels we visited. What really made it special was the staff. The breakfast was the nicest we encountered during our trip with the best pistachio croissants that we tried to replicate throughout our trip but were unsuccessful. The family-run hotel even made some special moments on Easter with the guests that really made it feel like you were staying with family. Loved Lucca and would 10000% come back to Hotel Alexander on our next stay!!!

Getting to the hotel is tricky with luggage. The streets are very narrow and leaving your car overnight in a parking lot several blocks away is a little scary.
The entire area of Lucca is very old, so it is no surprise that the hotel is older. However the rooms were air conditioned which we were very thankful for.

The staff was amazing and the cook to order breakfast was a pleasant surprise.

Beautiful hotel in a great location inside the walls of Lucca. We unloaded our car in front of the hotel with the gracious help of the staff, parking was close by and comfortable to get to. The rooms were clean, comfortable and we had a wonderful stay. Breakfast was delicious, scrambled eggs & bacon, kids had yummy pancakes and the service was amazing. We will return!

Palazzo Alexander has an excellent location for easy access to Lucca`s sights, and provides a comfortable, nicely elegant setting to its customers. The staff is welcoming, helpful and very friendly. Our room had plenty of light and space. We will be pleased to return.

Great hotel and staff in a wonderful location!

Fantastic staff.
Lovely breakfast available at good hours.
The air-con unit in our room was quite loud but incredible!
Great shower.
Really comfortable bed and pillows.
Located just inside the walls of Lucca, but away from the busy areas so really quiet.
Short walk away is a drinking fountain where we topped up our water bottles each day.

Worth noting that you can hear everything those in the rooms around (next to/above) are doing (showering, hairdryer, going to the toilet....) so if you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs!

After we checked in during the early evening, we rested for a while before going out for dinner. When we returned the front door was locked and the lights at reception were off. A member of staff then came over and let us in. Turns out we were meant to leave our key at reception when going out but we had no idea! So they thought everyone was in bed as no missing keys... Never had to do this before (but then again can't remember the last time I had an actual room key and not card) and we weren't told when we checked in or when we went out (although the person on reception when we went out was busy so perhaps they would have mentioned it if they saw us leave). No curfew, they just lock the front door and turn off the lights if everyone is in bed but there is a night porter around if you need help/want to go out. So make sure you leave your key at reception!

Perhaps one of the best decisions my wife and I made on our trip was staying at Palazzo Alexander. A family owned and operated hotel whose staff was friendly, accommodating, helpful, and kind. We wish we had booked a longer stay, and it is located in a very charming part of the old town of Lucca, very walkable to many restaurants, shopping, and attractions. Will for sure stay here again.

we loved the breakfast. And the beds were soft and comfy. It was an old building but very charming. The staff was very helpful. The bathroom has some deferred maintenance. The showerhead does not stay in place. And the sink stopper doesn’t work. but overall, we had a very pleasant day and we got to see Eric Clapton who was in town.

This is a beautiful boutique style hotel with charm that resonates with old world luxury. The staff exude that same old world genuineness as they work to make sure every question is answered and all your needs are attended to. Our room was on the small side with no terrace but the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast each morning in the salon was a treat! Full service with beautiful table settings and attentive staff, delicious food and coffee! We would absolutely recommend a stay here!

The hotel is simply delightful. The staff are amazing: they really go the extra mile to be helpful. It’s in a very quiet area and the hotel itself is very peaceful with no loud oikish types in sight. Classical music is played very quietly in reception and at breakfast. The latter, served by the excellent Roberto, is personally served and tailored to one’s exact preferences. Rooms are furnished in the traditional Italian palazzo style and are spotless. Mario, the owner, gladly books evening meals in recommended restaurants; his judgment is faultless. Reception staff (Paolo) are unfailingly pleasant & helpful.
