Steeped in six centuries of history, this intimate retreat sits at the heart of Lucca, close to the Piazza San Michele, bringing guests within easy reach of the city’s storied streets and landmarks. The palazzo’s character carries through every corner, from a welcoming lobby with attentive around-the-clock staff to a quiet library and TV room where guests can unwind between explorations. Rooms are shaped for comfort and ease, with a double bed and sofa bed giving families and couples alike room to settle in, while thoughtful touches like a tea and coffee station and slippers make each space feel genuinely lived-in. When the day calls for something more active, bicycle rentals put Lucca’s famous city walls and surrounding countryside within reach. The café and bar round out the rhythm of the day, with gluten-free dining options available and room service on hand whenever guests prefer an unhurried evening in.
