B&B Corte Toro

We have just returned from a 9 night stay at B&B Corte Toro in Lucca. Contact from Giacomo after booking was very good. We had a wonderful time there. Giacomo is an excellent host. The B&B is located in a very convenient location for everything you need in Lucca. It is on a very quiet street. We had a lovely big room; with a big bathroom with a great shower. Everything was very clean and comfortable. There are only three rooms at the B&B and they are well spread out so you hear nothing from the other guests. There are two flights of stairs up to the B&B, but the second one is quite short. I have arthritis and I had no trouble at all with the stairs. Giacomo provides a typical Italian breakfast each morning - and the items on offer change each day which was great as we stayed 9 nights. A lovely selection of assorted pastries; some of which we had never had before. There is a fridge in the breakfast area with cold drinks which can be taken and paid for at check out. This was much appreciated on hot days when we arrived back at the B&B. There is a very nice balcony area where guests can sit outside. Giacomo gave us the opportunity to leave our bags on our last day after check out, as our car to the airport wasn't coming until 18:30 - this was great for us! In conclusion; we had an excellent stay at B&B Corte Toro - we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a visit to Lucca.

We stayed 2 nights. Check-in was fine. Later that day I asked if I could put my bottle of water in the kitchen fridge as our room had no fridge. The woman said yes and indicated the bottom shelf of the door is where to put it. The next morning I went out and bought a piece of fruit to have later in the day and returned to the B&B to put it in the fridge. When I indicated to the man who served breakfast what I was doing he said that space was only for the souvenirs (?) of guests. He had also removed and discarded my bottle of water. After some grumbling by him he allowed me to put the fruit in. This incident soured the rest of the stay. Won't be returning. Also the bathroom had a slight sewer smell. Not pleasant.

There is no lift for this property which is on the second floor. The breakfast was really bad, all there was were sweet cakes, rather than cheese, jam, fresh bread. We move a small table to the left dyring our stating to have more light and we were foing to put it back once we left, we we were told off by the staff

Lovely B&B, host was lovely and recommended some great places to eat and drink, breakfast was great, brilliant location. Shower wasn’t great but it certainly didn’t spoil things 😊

It was a good place to stay. Finding it was a bit more difficult since there is it a wayward sign at the door. The sign is flat on the wall so you need to be on the lookout. The signage is also clear and blends in with the brick.

Excellent location, excellent service, especially the breakfast.
