It was in an excellent location. Stella our house manager was amazing, she gave us a list of restaurants, grocery store and the best place to buy sweets. The place is very quiet! I would stay there again. Grazie.

Palatial Suite didn’t disappoint

We enjoyed the location of the apartment, very close (4 minute walk) to the center of Lucca. Building is gorgeous and grand. Apartment has an elevator. We would definitely repeat.

The "Palatial Suite" is an apartment with character, located in an historic palazzo on one of Lucca's beautiful squares. The location in the historic center of Lucca is excellent. The description of apartment on VRBO is accurate. It is small but creatively designed to make the best use of the space. The bathroom is updated and modern, the kitchen is fine for breakfast, lunch, and cooking up some pasta, but if you want to cook something more complicated or are going to eat in every evening, you might find it lacking. Other positive things to note: the apartment is on an inner courtyard and quiet at night. the internet works well, as does the hot water. Given the compact size of the apartment it is probably best for one person, for a short stay if there are two persons. I stayed a week and can recommend it, and hope to stay there on future visits to Lucca.

Everything you need!

Thank you for an unforgettable experience. Lucca captured our hearts. The locality for the residence to the main attraction areas was superb. Loved the design and architecture of the building. We miss the Gelato shop just up the way. They were one of a kind with handmade options. Florence does not compare to them.

Lovely with peculiarities

It’s an intimate apartment for two in an elegant building, smaller than the posting suggests. Staff were great to accommodate our need for an extra night. The first key to the front door didn’t work so we couldn’t leave until key was replaced on day two. We struggled to get electric appliances to work but Manuel was quite helpful when he was available. We had a lovely time but some things seemed peculiar.

Very small but fabulous location

The description of the apartment is very accurate. It is very small but has all you need. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen adequate for us as we ate all meals out - several bars/cafes nearby for food/drink. Nice size bathroom with good size shower with good water pressure. Elevator to deal with luggage but other times we were encouraged to use stairs. Internet weak but adequate- my husband had several international business calls (zoom)that went ok. We were thrilled with the location and the street was quiet. The recommended parking garage was very close by. This is our 6th time in Lucca. With only a 3 day stay our options were limited as for obvious reasons places are booked by the week. We would stay here again because of the location, proximity to safe underground parking, and the attentiveness of the rental agent.

Ein Traum mitten in Lucca! Alleine der Weg durchs Treppenhaus hat mehr Flair als einige italienische Kathedralen, die ordentlich Eintritt verlangen. Stella war die perfekte Ansprechpartnerin! Wir kommen gern wieder.

Grazie😊

Ho soggiornato per 3 notti in Lucca Apartments e devo dire che è stato tutto molto perfetto. Stella al nostro arrivo ci ha fornito tante indicazioni per come muoverci nella città, dove poter mangiare bene etc.., aggiungo anche che è stata sempre tempestiva nel rispondere alle richieste fatte. La casa si trova a 2 minuti ( a piedi) dal centro, quindi molto comoda. I parcheggi non a pagamento rimangono fuori dalle mura quindi circa 15 minuti a piedi. Ci siamo trovate benissimo, anche la pulizia eccezionale.
