Family-run hotel in an Art Nouveau building a short walk from Lucca station, five minutes on foot from the city walls.
Albergo Moderno is a family-run 2-star hotel on Via Vincenzo Civitali, in the San Concordio district just outside Lucca's city walls. It occupies a 19th-century Art Nouveau (Liberty-style) building about 150–200 metres from the railway station: the walls are five minutes away on foot, and the cathedral and historic centre about ten.
It makes a convenient base for anyone arriving by train who wants to explore Lucca on foot, perhaps with day trips to Pisa, Florence or Viareggio. The five room types range from single to triple, and all have a private bathroom, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, a minibar, a safe, a desk and parquet floors with light wood furniture.
Breakfast is a continental and Italian buffet, served in the courtyard in summer, and there is also a terrace with outdoor furniture. Wi-Fi is free, rooms are cleaned daily and luggage storage helps if you arrive early or leave late. The hotel has no private parking and no lift.

Lucca station is about 150 metres away, and regional trains reach Pisa, Florence, Viareggio and the Garfagnana with no need for a car. The walls are five minutes' walk away and, since May 2025, a pedestrian and cycle underpass with stairs, ramps and lifts leads from the station towards the ramparts without crossing the ring road.
The hotel occupies a 19th-century Art Nouveau building, with parquet-floored rooms and classic light wood furniture, each with a desk and a private bathroom. It is family-run, and the staff are among the things guests appreciate most: friendly, helpful and always ready to suggest what to see in town and where to eat.
Breakfast is a continental and Italian buffet, and in the summer months it is served in the courtyard, a pleasant way to start the day before heading up onto the walls. The property also has a terrace with outdoor furniture, handy for a break after a day of sightseeing. Whether breakfast is included depends on the rate.
Albergo Moderno is at Via Vincenzo Civitali 38, in the San Concordio district, on the south side of the railway and just outside Lucca's city walls. The street is named after Vincenzo Civitali, a 16th-century Lucchese sculptor and architect who also worked on the walls. The Baluardo Santa Maria is about 250 metres away, Piazza Napoleone 450 metres and the cathedral around ten minutes on foot.
