Guest Reviews
- Roberto (8/5): Muito simpáticos -
- Tanja (10/5): - We received a warm welcome and were given a choice between two rooms. The decision was difficult as all the rooms are beautifully decorated and have everything you could need. The hotel is very close to the city center and shopping. We received helpful tips on sights to see and good restaurants. I highly recommend this hotel. If you're looking for accommodation in Lucca, choose Hotel Tango. Warm regards Tanja & Alex

- Ana (10/5): - We had a wonderful stay at this guest house 💛
Jesus and Miriam are incredibly kind and welcoming people — they made us feel at home from the very first moment.
The house itself is a beautiful Italian home, full of charm and warmth. Everything was perfectly clean, and you can really feel the care and attention in every detail.
The location is also very convenient — great both for those traveling by car and for guests using the train.
Thank you for such a lovely experience 💛
- Holger (9/5): Zentral, sauber und freundlich - Motorräder können im Hof geparkt werden. Gebühr von 7€ fürs parken halte ich für zu hoch, da kein Tor vorhanden. Zimmer top und sauber. Team sehr bemüht und freundlich. Es gibt eine Dachterrasse mit Bar. Man bekommt gute Empfehlungen bzgl. Frühstück und Restaurants sowie Sehenswürdigkeiten. Parkgebühr sollte im Zimmerpreis enthalten sein.
- Sarah (6/5): Charmantes altes Gebäude - Parkplatz vor Ort, Stadt gut zu Fuss erreichbar, freundlicher Besitzer, tolle Dusche Der Strassenlärm war gut hörbar, Oberflächen waren staubig, es hatte Haare auf dem Bett-Überzug
- Stefano (10/5): -
- Ayeray (10/5): - Es excelente el hotel. Cuidado en cada detalle. Súper amable el anfitrión y atento a nuestras necesidades. Nos permitió ingresar antes del horario del check in. Las instalaciones son excelentes, de primera calidad.
En nuestro viaje por Europa fue el mejor hospedaje en el que estuvimos, sin duda volveremos y obviamente recomendaremos.
- Natan (9/5): - Il centro città dista meno di 15 minuti a piedi.
- Cristina (10/5): -
- katherine (10/5): Big thumbs up! - A delightful little hotel run by a lovely, friendly and interested couple. Tango Hotel is an easy and safe 10 minute walk from the railway station, and about the same to the Lucca city wall. The room and bathroom were generously proportioned and bright.
A few minutes walk away is an excellent, recommended eating place where I enjoyed breakfast capuccino and a slice of torta for 2 euros! (March 2026) I believe this place does excellent evening meals too.
I asked the couple who run the hotel for a scale to weigh my luggage and they were fabulous about organising that for me.
I'll definitely go back on my return to Lucca.
- Rachel (10/5): - The owner is so nice and helpful, ideal location can walk into lucca, rooms spacious!
- Harald (9/5): Wir waren im Tangohotel rundum zufrieden. - Sehr herzlicher Empfang, gute Restauranttips, grosses klimatisiertes Zimmer mit schalldichten Fenstern, geräumiges Bad. Gute Ausgangslage für Stadtbesichtigungen oder Ausflüge in Umgebung. Parkmöglichkeit im Hof vorhanden. Auf der gemeinsam genutzten Terrasse ist alles vorhanden: Kaffeemaschine , Kühlschrank, Spüle , Geschirr ... Wir würden wiederkommen! Alles war gut!
- Kendal (8/5): - The staff were so helpful. The recommend this wonderful restaurant where locals go that did not disappoint and was a short walking distance from the hotel. I loved that the hotel was walking distance from the train station in the residential area. The only thing I would suggest is to update the bedding with a new comforter.
- maurizio (8/5): - posizione perfetta. no colazione no colazione

- Steve (9/5): We arrived at the hotel and the staff were more than helpful. We had a room upgrade to the penthouse which was room 402. - This property was a five minute walk from the Vatican City, which was ideal. The room was clean and tidy and we had a terrace to view out of breakfast was simple but perfectly adequate Nothing
- Matteo (9/5): -
- EUGENIA (10/5): Da rifare assolutamente al Tango Hotel - Posiziona a due passi dal centro, staff gentilissimo e super disponibile, tutto molto
pulito! Forse che non c’è la possibilità di far colazione, ma a due passi c’è un forno/caffè molto rifornito

Cortesia del proprietario.
- Nicola (10/5): A great hotel with fantastic hosts - I had an amazing experience at Tango Hotel ! The hosts are the best hosts I ever had : welcoming , friendly and always there to assist me if I ever needed . The hotel is located in a very good area , 10 mins walk from the centre of the town , my room was clean , spacious and the bed very comfortable ; there is air conditioning which is life saving during summer time and much needed . Upstairs there is also a coffee machine and a terrace that guests can use .
Two mins walk from the hotel there is a good bakery and a good icecream shop.
I will definitely come back in the future , thank you so much for having me ! I liked everything .
- Brooke (9/5): Superb -
- Tomas (10/5): Very pleasant atmosphere, we recommend! - Very good location near the historic center Lucca, excellent parking, luxurious breakfast terrace with excellent coffee. Very nice hostess Miriam, Very good communication. The rooms were prepared and cooled by air conditioning, cold alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks in the fridge. Mrs. Miriam recommended us a unique local restaurant near the accommodation.
- Ruben (10/5): Excellent. Highly recommended. - Friendly welcome by the lovely hosts. Even though I arrived late they welcomed me with a limoncello and a smile.
Room was well appointed with en suite and close to both the train station and the centre of town.
- Darren (9/5): Superb -
- Michael (10/5): Very large rooms, completely updated. Walking distance from train station. Staff was awesome!!! - There is no breakfast, but the staff recomended various nearbye locations which had excellent atmosphere and food. Nothing
- Tom (10/5): Perfect choice for Lucca - We like a short walk to the centre, friendly and helpful owners. Close to the supermarket Nothing
- Stephen (9/5): Superb - Great location, clean and staff very helpful
- Roy (10/5): Great little Gem of a Hotel.. - perfect location... Just a short walk to the main attractions of the city
Miriam was simply wonderful, so helpful in every way
nothing was too much trouble.
the room was just delightful, had been prepared and restored in a beautiful way to reflect the history of the building
had all of the necessary features to make the stay more enjoyable
I'm a long time vistor to Lucca.. on all previous visits staying elsewhere
having now found the Tango Hotel this year, I will certainly be returning and based on my experience would recommend anyone coming to Lucca to do the same. not so much of a what didn't you like..that's probably the wrong description for the question
just a bit of a pity there was no breakfast offering at the hotel, although Coffee was available upstairs
the local cafe along the street prepared a great croissant and other breakfast stuffs
perhaps something to consider... a croissant and a coffee.
Now that would be perfect 😀
- Ísabella (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dani_roth (10/5): Nostalgic and Quaint - If you're looking for some character and charm, this is a wonderful spot. Mariam is so welcoming and kind, as was everyone we engaged and said hello to. Super close to Lucca's ancient wall, shops, cafes, and restaurants. Our room was small, very clean, and everything needed was included.
- Marc (8/5): Very nice indeed - Very friend and helpfull staff. Excellent location. Rooms was next to the street so during the night there was occassional trafic.
- Gill (9/5): Great find! - Lovely friendly and accommodating couple. They let us leave our bag and car before check in time. Gave us lots of useful information about Lucca. Did everything they could to make sure we were happy 😊. Charming room and bathroom with great shower. Bed super comfortable. sadly there was no breakfast but there was free coffee/hot water on the terrace and they recommended an excellent bakery just up the road. Lucca is an easy stroll away, as is the train station, for a quick trip to Pisa. The road outside is quite busy and did disturb us a little during the night but there are free earplugs to use. There is no sign on the building, so we missed it the first time but luckily the owners spotted us!
- Branko (10/5): We enjoyed in Tuscany style room. - We enjoyed in extraordinary renovated room. Style of the room is very authentic, typically Tuscany charm. Miriam was very helpful. /
- Conal (9/5): Thoroughly enjoyed it. - Breakfast in a nearby coffee shop was excellent
- Krista (7/5): Good - It was clean and tidy, location was good near the old town. Free parking was good beside the hotel. Suitable also for bikers and car enthuastics. Aircondition was great.
- Peter (9/5): Quiet, rustic hotel. A perfect place to lay your head - We really liked the quiet, dark and comfortable room, as we had a long sleep and good rest.
Also the location is good and being just outside the city walls, the price is much better.
The place has a rustic feel being a renovated house over 1000 years old!
- Taryn (10/5): A beautiful place to stay - Great finishing touches to the room. Excellent furnishings and design. It was exceptionally clean and comfortable and very quiet. The air con made it very cool on hot days. A very welcoming and helpful host. A short walk to the beautiful walled town of Lucca (only 500m). A faultless stay. Nothing to dislike at all. We loved our stay.
- Karlo (10/5): Exceptional - Cosy, wintage style hotel with extremely friendly and pleasant staff.
Perfect location, 5 min walking distance from the city centre.
- Jack (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andrea (10/5): Best place in Lucca! - Very nice hotel close to town. The host was very friendly and helpful. The rooms are awesome with drinks with honor system. Coffee on the Terasse in the morning was complementary. Very recommendable!
- Khatib (10/5): Best hotel to take in Pisa - It was a very good experience. The hotel is
beautiful. Top service and owners are very kinds Nothing
- Liam (10/5): Perfect location, lovely owners and comfortable stay - The owners of the hotel were amazing, couldn’t do enough for us! Very comfortable and homely feel to the place. Would definitely recommend to anyone coming to Lucca would defo return
- Aru (7/5): Good - Charming hosts. Comfortable room.
- Maryfajsu61 (8/5): Very good - JUST SEVEN MINUTES WALK TO PORTA SAN PIETRO
- O'sullivan (10/5): Exceptional - Our host's friendliness, proximity to the city walls and the terrace where we could sit out and have our coffees
- John (10/5): Exceptional - We are an eighty- year-old couple who needed a hotel in Lucca in an emergency situation. (My sister who had invited us to share a rental property in Lucca developed Covid.)
The Tango Hotel is probably a two or three star hotel in conventional ratings. There is no breakfast, no elevator, and few extra amenities. The stairs are steep and narrow.
However, the room was exceptionally clean, very comfortable, and well-lighted. There is a very nice terrace on the second floor which we enjoyed in the evenings. The hosts were truly kind and helpful to us in giving directions and information about restaurants and distance we needed to walk. The gentleman carried our luggage up the stairs. The hosts have put considerable effort into making a small and old building work well for guests despite the lack of some of the usual amenities. They made a last-minute decision work for us. With some caveats we could definitely recommend this hotel to others.
- Andrew (9/5): Superb - The hotel was just outside the wall of lucca lovely space . Great location to escape the tourists , after you have seen the beautiful town
- David (9/5): A gem of a small hotel just outside the center. - I really enjoyed my stay here. A very nice older building that has been nicely renovated. Great parking if you have a car and an easy 10 minute walk into the Centro Storico. Lovely couple who own and run this great little gem of a hotel. If you speak Spanish you are in luck! They are obviously well-versed in English as well. It's nice being out of the centro and there is a great little neighborhood gelato place on the way to/from the centro. They also have a nice little outdoor patio on the 2nd floor with coffee available. Nothing. I didn't order breakfast during my stay but I'm sure it's fantastic
- Hugh (10/5): Exceptional -
- Brian (8/5): Very good - Free parking. Gated premises. The stairs. Also we could not use the terrace for breakfast because of renovations.
- Stephen (10/5): Perfect hotel for a short visit to a fantastic city. - A fantastic hotel lovingly restored a very high quality. Ideally located, easy secure parking and just a short walk to the centre of old Lucca. We stayed 2 nights on our big European tour and saw KISS playing in Lucca. Great location and really great friendly hosts/owners of this boutique hotel. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others.
- Sara (10/5): Amazing!!! - It is a very nice restored old house , it os clean and confortable, very close to the center area and to the train station, with an exceptional couple(owners) who helped us with every single question we had, they are always supportive and more than helpful giving all the information you need while you are there, Jesus and Myriam treated us like family, we will always have them in our hearts❤️ I have nothing negative to say
- Markus (9/5): can highly recommend Tango Hotel, very nice staff and great location to visit the wall city - excellent facilities we had to open the windows at night and cars were driving past all the time. noisy at times, never the less great accomodation
