A week in Lucca
The B&B was lovely, very Art Deco. The staff were excellent. The owners did everything they could to make our stay a wonderful experience. The room we had was the budget room, which meant it was smaller than the others. With hindsight, we should have opted for a larger room, which were more spacious. The Breakfasts were very good value at euro5 per person. The Air con worked fine. There is quite a bit of traffic noise at the front of the building, but it is an easy walk into the walled city and convenient for the train station and buses. I would definitely go back here again, but will book the larger rooms next time.

Breakfast was fine and Lucia was very nice. La Mimosa also,provides bicycles free of charge. What is stated incorrectly is the fact that La Mimosa does NOT provide any free parking. There is some free street parking one block away but all spots were taken. We had to park at metered street parking. Also, hotel.com had confirmed two large beds and La Mimosa wanted to charge me an additional fee even though I had confirmed with hotel.com that there would be no additional charge. After a lengthy discussion, La Mimosa accepted the price from hotel.com.

Charming BnB just outside the city walls
A lovely place to stay, a few minutes walk to the city walls. Our room was delightful and very comfortable. The breakfast each day was lavish and delicious. We were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary, and this was the perfect romantic location.

Nice Hotel short walk from Lucca old town
Little gem of a hotel. Owners are some of the friendliest people I have ever met. Ideally situated, just a short stroll to the walls of Lucca. Rooms are spotless and have been recently redecorated. Excellent breakfast choice available. Central Railway Station 20 minute walk away, frequent trains to Pisa (30 mins.) and Florence (1 hr. 20 mins.) Travelled with friends and family (3 rooms, 6 people) and stayed 10 days. So only fair to say that we gave it a proper trial. Even organised airport transfers on our behalf. No complaints.

a gem of B&B
B&B La Mimosa is a gem. It's conveniently located--a 10-minute walk from Lucca centro and the train station--the rooms are extremely clean, with excellent WiFi and AC; the staff is friendly, welcoming, helpful and efficient. The breakfast is delicious, with a vast amount of fresh fruit; they have a bar coffee maker with which Lucia, the owner, makes excellent great cappuccino and coffee. I had some minor problems with the light in the room , and, by the time I came back, in the evening everything was fixed. It has been a pleasure to spend 4 nights at La Mimosa. I highly recommend this B&B!

Comfortable BnB only about 10 minutes walk from ci
We chose La Mimosa because of the good reviews. We were not disappointed. Our room was up a flight of steep stairs which might challenge some. The room was quite large, nicely decorated with a comfortable bed and refurbished bathroom. Lots of hot water and excellent wifi. We borrowed bikes from the owner and loved riding the town wall.

Cozy B&B nicely located
This B&B is a short walk into the beautiful town of Lucca. Staff was very welcoming and helpful with suggestions as to what to see and do and where to eat in Lucca. Free bicycles were available, as well as free parking very close by. Breakfast was excellent. Rooms were cozy and nicely decorated. Wi-Fi reception was strong and fast. Our room was in the back of the property, away from the street (quieter than the rooms facing the street). All in all, a great little place to stay.

Nice stay in Lucca
We had a nice stay in this B&B. It is very conveniently located outside the city walls but close enough to walk to all the major sights. The room was nice and clean. Breakfast was limited but ok. There is no onsite parking - down the street is some free street parking but if there is no free spot you are out of luck. Staff was friendly and helpful to carry our luggage up the rather steep staircase.

We loved staying at La Mimosa B & B. It was clean, comfortable and the breakfast was lovely. Giuseppe was very welcoming and friendly and spoke excellent English. He gave us ideas on good places to eat and free use of their bicycles. They are located conveniently walking distance to the bus station. Will be back to visit Lucca and this B & B.

Mimosa at the Santa Ana gate
The room is very nice, especially for young people. The hotel is "fuori le mura" but close to The Santa Ana gate and, after that, the Saint Michael church and Puccini birth house (now Puccini museum). Duomo (Cathedral of Saint Martin and famous Jacoppo de Querchia s Illaria sculpture) is at the walking distance. The stuff is very usefull and cooperative. There is parking place free of charge in close neighborhood.

La Mimosa was our favorite b&b in Italy. Our host Giuseppe was so friendly and our room on the first floor was clean and fabulously decorated. Great location, bike rental and breakfast including real espresso. So much more than we expected for the rate we paid.

Great Cozy Bed & Breakfast in a beautiful city!
My husband and I traveled to Lucca over the summer for the first time and stayed here for two nights. Our room was clean and comfortable. Giuseppe & Stefano were very friendly and helpful in telling us what to see and where to go in the city. The food was great, and it is in a great location very close to city. I would definitely go back there.

Excellent ratio comfort/price. Staff is kind and helpful. It is a former house remodeled as a B&B. Do not expect hotels standards but, again, it is steps away from the city's walls.

Elizabetta was fantastic
Breakfast was help yourself but plenty of everything. (included fruit, croissants, yogurts, bread, salami and cheese) Elizabetta was really friendly and helpful, even allowed us to take some items to room as we were going out early before breakfast next day. She also wrapped some ham, cheese etc for us. Nothing was too much trouble. Choice of drinks included her speciality cappucinos!! Rooms and public areas really clean. There was a small garden with gazebo that could be used in good weather. Bikes were available and free to use. We were able to leave luggage until our room was available and also after check out. B and B was about 10 minutes easy walk from the bus station in Lucca. Location of B and B was on a busy road.

Quirky, charming, and personal.
Charming, narrow, old apartment building with each room painted a different rich pastel color and named for that color. Sweetly and uniquely furnished and embellished, obviously a work of love by the owners. The owner we met was warm and funny with a darling way of speaking English! Though we might have eaten breakfast in a bright room on little mosaic tables, we chose the garden instead, under a white canvas canopy, the mimosa tree fully in view.

very nice bed and breakfast
La Mimosa is a very nice bed and breakfast. It's located just outside the city walls. If you show your keys, you can get 10% off in nearby restaurants. Our room was nice,comfy, and clean. TV was a little bit small but that's OK. We didn't go there to watch TV. People are very kind and helpful. I recommended this B&B to my friends and family.

Great staff
When we arrived we were hot from the walk from the train station. Had followed googles direction, but don't, instead stay close to the wall and you won't have to cross difficult streets. Were given Popsicles when they saw how hot we were. They also printed off tickets for us. They gave us a map and marked all of the things that might be of interest. Just very accommodating. Breakfast was in a pleasant room with a good variety of options. Room was a little dated, but clean and comfortable. Would stay there again.

Charmingly eccentric
The cousins who own and operate the B&B go above and beyond in being helpful and friendly. The decor is really fun. Breakfast is excellent. I rated '4' for condition because of smelly drains, but don't know whether that was actually a maintenance issue or a city issue that couldn't be helped. It's a fairly short walk to one of the gates in the city wall.

Sweet B&B
B&B Mimosa is quaint and nice and close to the walled section of Lucca. We stayed as a family of 4 and had more than enough room. The only complaint would be the one of the beds was very old with springs sticking through making one bed not so comfortable but aside from that it was great, quiet, and the breakfast was good.

In the heart of lucca
The guy at reception was very nice,gave a clear explanation. On arrival , I was surprised to know that there are 2 locations of the hotel property, one outside the wall of Lucca, the other one inside. We stayed inside. The hotel is in a good location, on the pedestrian main street , easy to reach everywhere of Lucca attractions but you have to carry the luggages to the room. It's not far from the lucca wall which has a big car parking. Lucca is a charming town. Shops open late until 7.30pm, so you can stroll around , have dinner, enjoy the night, back to the room in the heart of Lucca and feel like Italian .

An excellent B&B with outstanding service
A wonderfully ambient B&B, just outside the city walls, a 10 minute walk or 3 minute cycle on the free bikes provided by Giuseppe and Stefano. Delicious breakfast with croissants to die for and excellent tips and recommendations from the hosts. Anyone flying into Pisa should know that the buses stop running at 9pm so you will need to take a cab to Lucca if you arrive later than that, but it is easy from right outside the airport to the door for between 40-50 euros.

This B & B was in a great location about 100 metres from the Lucca wall - easy walking and or cycling on bikes provided by the B & B. The owners were attentive and helpful - I would have no hesitation in reccomending this establishment.
