Boasting stunning views of the town's historic rooftops and medieval towers, this two-level apartment is the ideal Lucca retreat. It’s light and airy with lots of character features, but we should probably mention that the bathroom is a bit dated. And although there’s a lift here there’s still a flight of stairs to climb. We’re sure you’ll love the location here. It’s situated between the vibrant Piazza San Michele and the Via Fillungo, so you’ll have plenty of boutiques and restaurants on your doorstep.

Rooftop Views

You’ll find this cosy apartment within the ancient walls of Lucca. The city's characteristic cobblestone streets are on your doorstep, lined with restaurants and boutiques. And many of its much-loved attractions such as the cathedral, the Guinigi Tower and Piazza Anfiteatro are within walking distance. Back at this home, you’ll be glad it has air conditioning on those hot Tuscan days. We think this home will appeal to lovers of traditional decor and character features – it sits well among this city’s historic heritage.

You'll find shops and restaurants easily reachable on foot, guaranteeing you'll be able to make the most of this beautiful city. The apartment's age is apparent in its stone walls and high ceilings – while it lacks natural light, it'll stay cool even on the hottest summer days.

For little ones, your host can provide a free cot and high chair, making it a breeze to stay here as a family.

If you’re feeling short on creative energy, let this unique home be your muse. Surrounded by Lucca’s Renaissance history, you’ll be steps away from the spectacular old palace that now houses the Town Hall and a short walk from the columnar San Michele in Foro church that predates medieval times. Inside the apartment, Tuscan aesthetics dominate, with a palette of earthy colours accented by rusty reds – we especially love the dappled paint effect on the walls and the vibrant tiled bathrooms. An L-shaped kitchen with generous counter space – topped with marble to continue the air of casual luxury – and a dedicated dining room, indicate that this is a home where culinary exploits are highly encouraged. And with the city being home to many artisanal grocery shops, you’re always just a few hours away from your next exceptional meal. 

The Watercolourist

Nestled in the historic walls of Lucca, this apartment is perfectly placed for an Italian adventure.

Parking is available nearby and you’ll find all the essentials you could need to settle in and unwind. There’s a cosy living room for laidback evenings and three thoughtfully-designed bedrooms – one of which comes with an en-suite bathroom for extra privacy,

Start your day with a fresh coffee from the kitchen, where you'll find both Italian and American coffee makers, then head out to wander the streets of Lucca, visiting Piazza Napoleone and climbing Guinigi Tower to admire the view over Tuscany.

Once you step off the main streets of Lucca and through the building doors, you’ll be taken on a whirlwind journey through time with the building dating back to the 1200s. This restored home has made sure all its antique charm has remained intact, from 500-year old paintings to beautifully carved ceilings and painterly walls. This enchanting property is like no other – you’ll feel like royalty walking through the large turquoise and gold gilded doors, draped curtains at each window and an enormous dining room table equipped for the fanciest of feasts. While its regal palace interior will take you centuries back, the property is equipped with all the modern amenities one needs in present day. Take a stroll through Lucca with beautiful boutiques, restaurants and attractions to make your stay as spectacular as possible.

Casa Penelope

Touched with a daub of pastels, this ground-floor apartment is a delightful haven to decompress in after busy days exploring historic Lucca and its surrounding towns. The beamed ceilings and arched doorways are typically Tuscan, and a commitment to muted tones – except in the second bathroom which offers a playful shock of cobalt mosaic tiles – invites you to take it easy and play strains of classical music, open up a bottle of robust red and perhaps put a Fellini film on the flat-screen television. You’re in the heart of the action of Lucca here, with less than a ten-minute walk to attractions like antique shops, markets, restaurants and the Lu.c.c.A Center of Contemporary Art. Just around the corner, on Via della Fratta, you’ll find a famous patisserie and a host of artisanal food shops where you can pick up delicious ingredients to experiment with in the pristine kitchen. 

Vanilla-Bean Gelato

From the high ceilings and marble fireplaces to the tiled and parquet floors, this grand home mixes the traditional style of Lucca with pops of modernity. Moments from some of the city's best sights, and with views over Piazza Santa Maria Bianca from the living room, this apartment is perfect for exploring this slice of Tuscany. When you're not at one of the bars or ordering gelato, head home for a sharp, stylish space to chill out. The large living room has cream-coloured sofas and armchairs in which to unwind after a long day, while for the especially tired, there's a deep bathtub to soak in. Little design details, such as the blue-and-white tiles in the kitchen, add a sense of hominess, while antique cabinets and wardrobes pay homage to this historical corner.

There are plenty of lounging areas to choose from, whether you want to soak up the sun on the chaise window seat or luxuriate on the L-shaped sofa. 

While there is a wide selection of dining options in town, including a Michelin-starred restaurant across the road, you can also get inspired by the local markets and prepare a casual dinner at home to enjoy out on your private terrace. As the sun goes down and the night air comes in, head inside and tuck into the cosy beds so you can wake up to the Tuscan sunrise at your window.

Free Parking On Street

Discover history with ease from this home within the city walls of Lucca, just an eleven-minute stroll from the Piazza dell'Anfiteatro. After sipping a chilled limoncello on this bustling medieval plaza, let the lines of the cobbled streets guide you through the city, and to the entrance of your gorgeous apartment. Its modern touches are a welcome contrast to your ancient surroundings. Cream and pistachio-coloured walls create brightness in the lounge, with French windows bringing in yet more natural light to illuminate this elegant space. Scandi-style dining chairs and angular furnishings look distinctly modern, but gilded frames, chunky sculptures, and intriguing trinkets adorn the cabinets. While plants like the cactus bring a 21st-century vibe, more traditional floral features are here to remind you of rustic local landscapes. Admire a gothic church from the French windows as you pop a bottle of Tuscan wine and plan your activities for the day ahead. We recommend a ten-minute walk to the Guinigi Tower – climb to the top where its holm oaks are growing strong. Let your eyes feast on the striking view of towers, the Duomo, and beautifully preserved facades of religious structures.

Medieval meets Modern

Espresso Machine

Garden

With oodles of space and a picturesque garden, this Lucca apartment ensures your downtime at home is just as enjoyable as your adventures in the walled city. Committed to modernity, it’s a white-walled, high-ceilinged haven that fosters a sense of calm and ease, while pops of bright colour and plenty of green plants bring a touch of vibrancy. Take afternoon tea in the armchairs out on the deck or fling open your bedroom doors and embrace la dolce vita with a bottle of Prosecco at the charming balcony’s table for two. There’s dedicated gated parking here, too, meaning you can effortlessly hire a car and set off for a Tuscan wine-route escapade. But there are plenty of attractions right on your doorstep as well. The home is in a central yet quiet part of town – it’s just a one-minute stroll to San Francesco, a Gothic-style church, while Guinigi Tower is a seven-minute walk. If you want to take some snaps of Lucca Cathedral – it’s twelve minutes on foot, or use the free bikes provided by your lovely host.


Curved Lines

As you arrive in the city of one-hundred churches, you’re sure to hear the bells chiming in harmony as you wander its ancient streets. But there are surprisingly modern pockets in this medieval wonderland. This apartment displays 21st-century sensibilities, while fully immersed in the historic walled city of Lucca. It’s less than a two-minute walk from the bustling main square, Piazza Napoleone, and seven from the wine bars and restaurants of the Piazza dell'Anfiteatro. And inside, traditional meets modern in an incredibly stylish manner. We love the bright, white lounge and open-plan kitchen, where vintage-style armchairs meet the angular lines of the high breakfast bar. Textiles such as velvet and rattan combine with wooden furniture to create a unique space, wrapped in understated luxury. For striking vistas of surrounding architecture like the palace and San Giusto church, head out to your private, covered balcony. The warm, terracotta tones make this spot feel superbly cosy. We recommend a chilled glass of chianti, some fresh Italian bread, and juicy local olives to set the scene. You’ll never tire of these views, it truly feels as though you’re ensconced in the surrounding architecture.

Butternut Squash

With a great address in the heart of Lucca with its well-preserved Renaissance walls, this studio-style apartment is an ideal city retreat for two. Step out onto cobblestone streets, and you'll find an array of restaurants within a short stroll. Or music lovers can visit Casa di Puccini, where the famous opera composer was born. With such a fantastic location, you may hear some street noise during your stay. Unlike many studios, this apartment has a separate kitchen – though there's no oven, there's a hob and microwave. There are plenty of character features here, and the tall ceilings give a sense of space. We love the modern four-poster bed, too – this place is ideal for a romantic break.

Soulful Sanctuary

This apartment is full of charm. It’s conveniently located in the heart of Lucca, close to its ancient walls and attractions like the Guinigi Tower. It’s adjacent to the bus station, so it’s easy to head out on day trips – if you can tear yourself away from beautiful Lucca. The apartment features large windows that look out over the streets of Lucca and fill the home with light. You’ll have everything you need for a comfortable stay here, including two bathrooms. 

Lovely Lucca

Tucked away on the top floor of a historic building in Lucca's charming old town, this chic suite is perfect for a solo traveller looking for their Eat, Pray, Love moment or a couple looking for a romantic retreat.

Beneath its exposed beam ceilings dotted with skylights, you'll find comfortable contemporary furnishings, antique decor and elaborate Renaissance-style touches, all bathed in golden Tuscan sunlight. We loved the elevated shower cubicle behind the bed, though we recognise it won't appeal to everyone. 

Step out, and you'll find yourself within the ancient city walls, which enclose charming streets lined with medieval buildings, quaint shops, and delicious restaurants. Enjoy leisurely strolls along the top of the walls, which offer stunning views of the surrounding Tuscan countryside. The city's main square, Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, is a must-see and just a few hundred metres away. Additionally, the Basilica di San Frediano, the Cathedral of San Martino, and the Guinigi Tower are all shining examples of its awe-inspiring architecture.

Piccolo

Lucca Spirit

With an unbeatable location on Piazza dell'Anfiteatro in Lucca, this beautiful apartment puts you in the heart of the city’s historic centre, with countless points of interest right on your doorstep. Inside, exposed brick walls, terracotta tiled floors and contemporary furnishings in the open-plan living area create a chic blend of old meets new, with an inviting window-side table waiting to host stylish breakfasts over espressos and Italian feasts aplenty. The bedroom, meanwhile, is a luxurious affair with its sumptuous bed and carefully curated jewel-tone decor, not to mention its large window proffering sensational views over Lucca’s Roman amphitheatre. Factor in the chic desk space and the bathroom’s rainfall shower, and you’re all set for a relaxing stay whether you’re here for business or pleasure. Outside of your home, Guinigi Tower is a four-minute walk away, Piazza San Frediano is a two-minute stroll and Via Fillungo – the city’s main shopping street – is just one minute away on foot. 


Casa Anfiteatro

Keeping its original signage over the window, this former graphic arts studio offers a charming apartment along the road from the Piazza San Michele. We love how the arched mezzanine adds character to the living space, which transforms into a second bedroom for guests three and four. Though there isn't an oven here for home cooking, you'll find a variety of restaurants within strolling distance. Fancy an outing? Tour some of Lucca's churches before visiting the Museum of Villa Mansi and Puccini's birthplace.

Urban Hideout

In the heart of Lucca, atop an ancient palazzo, lies a romantic retreat. This top-floor gem blends contemporary style with timeless elegance, featuring a fireplace that dates back to the 1600s and all the modern amenities you could wish for. It’s a beautiful home that offers views of central Lucca – you'll be just steps from the iconic Guinigi Tower and Piazza San Martino. There are plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby, and you’ll have a convenient kitchen to cook in, too. 

The Bell Towers

Swimming Pool

You'll find this apartment in the heart of Lucca, surrounded by the city's ancient walls. In terms of location, it's pretty hard to beat – shops, restaurants, and all the must-see landmarks are just a short walk away. But it's not just the locale that we're impressed with. Back home, a Tuscan courtyard garden absolutely steals the show. It's a picture-perfect setting for dining alfresco on Italian classics, relaxing in the hot tub, or sipping local wines. Inside, the style merges contemporary with classic character. Both bedrooms are as smart as the next, while the kitchen is well-stocked if you fancy a homecooked meal.

Tuscan Symphony

Step-Free Access

Located in the heart of historic Lucca, this elegant apartment pops with Italian romance. Frescoed ceilings, antique-inspired furnishings and beautifully dressed bedrooms create an irresistible stay. It may not be quite to the taste of those looking for an ultra-modern experience, but we think the old-world decor is the perfect setting for Lucca’s rich culture. When you’re ready to venture out, you’ll find Piazza San Michele, less than a minute’s walk from home, and plenty more to see and do nearby, including Piazza Napoleone, the Guinigi Tower, Via Fillungo and the Antique Market. While you won’t need a car to explore the city’s sights, you may find having one beneficial for day trips to the Cinque Terre, Pisa and Florence and Forte dei Marmi.

It’s also just a five-minute walk from the train station – making it easy to explore further afield. Inside, the owners have retained the rustic features while adding in contemporary comforts. It’s worth noting the single room is small, but there is a dedicated desk making this a great option for remote workers.

Set within the old town walls of Lucca, this elegant apartment captures the artistic beauty of its location. 

With views across the majestic Palazzo Pfanner, this is the kind of home that takes you on a journey into the heart of traditional Tuscan living.

The Violet Blue

In the very heart of the walled city of Lucca, this family-size apartment for four puts restaurants, bars and historical monuments right on your doorstep. But the real standout here is the large outdoor terrace, complete with a lounge and dining area so you can enjoy dinner and drinks alfresco after a busy day spent sightseeing. Overlooking Piazza San Giovanni’s celebrated church and the Cathedral of San Martino, you really couldn't be better set up for a relaxing stay in Tuscany's medieval gem. 

We particularly love the boutique living room with ornate flooring, velvet sofas and striking pieces of art. With the glass double doors thrown open, instantly extending your communal area, the grand dining room is the perfect place for a group get-together. You can take a seat in the chic bar for evening cocktails, or retreat to the elegant bedrooms for a restful night's sleep. 

My Lucca Garden

Tucked within the historic walls of Lucca, this Italian pad is perfect for friends or family visiting the city. There’s only air conditioning in the living room, but when you need a fresh air fix, wander out to your private terrace – just the spot for sundowners or alfresco meals. That said, if you fancy a break from cooking, you’ve come to the right place. With Piazza San Francesco on your doorstep you’ll find Italian eateries aplenty, so dining out is always on the menu.

Soul of Lucca

Located within the city walls, this fourth-floor home is perched above one of Lucca's main shopping streets. Promising pretty skyline views, this designer-furnished space offers a base for sightseers to plan out their itineraries. The lack of a handrail on the staircase calls for eagle-eyed parenting, as all guests will have to take care climbing up to the loft. With not much keeping you indoors, the famous Torre Guinigi is a stone's throw away, plus medieval churches and historic piazzas.

Bianco Scorcia

Buzzer / Wireless Intercom

Bright and stylish, this apartment on the second floor of a renaissance building is wonderfully laid out, welcoming guests in with fresh, open spaces, comfortable furnishings and a relaxed ambience. The ancient city of Lucca is the perfectly-juxtaposed backdrop to this chic, modern home. The open-plan kitchen, living room, and dining area make this home distinct yet comforting, thanks to super-high ceilings and a colour palette that mixes clean white with vibrant reds and greens. Each room is saturated in warm sunlight, thanks to the huge huge windows, and the patio terrace is ideal for early morning coffee and candlelit, star-strewn evening dinners, overlooking the city square and church. 

You’re close to the action, with quaint cobblestone streets and little avenues waiting to be explored, as well as sumptuous restaurants to sample local delicacies and produce.

Although this attic apartment involves quite a lot of stairs – fifty-two of them, to be exact – the climb is worth it. Up here, the sunlight streams through the skylights and shuttered windows, creating a bright and inviting space to kick back and relax with a glass of wine or two. This flat is set within an ancient palace in the heart of Lucca, so if Tuscan character is what you're after, you've got it – albeit in a slightly more modern way. Warm orange hues, glossy wood floors, timber ceilings and blue tiles in the kitchen feel very traditional, but the trendy open mezzanine (where you'll find the bedroom) and the floating staircase leading up to are as contemporary as it gets. 

Location-wise, this is a spectacular spot close to all of Lucca's must-see sights. Indulge your sweet tooth at the gelato shop across the road (it's the best in town), sip espresso in the sunshine at Piazza dell'Anfiteatro (a four-minute stroll away) or tuck into a delicious Italian feast at the local trattorias and eateries on your doorstep. And you can't visit Lucca without a wander along the city's famous Renaissance walls – the entrance at Porta Santa Maria is just five minutes away on foot.

Musetta's Waltz

Desk

Take in the views over the ancient trees and city promenade when you stay at this apartment. This place is ideal for friends or a family, not least because there’s a second kitchen with a bedroom area off it, where guests seven and eight will be sleeping on a sofa bed. If you need to catch up on work while away, you’ll be glad to know there’s a desk here, too. Location-wise, well, many of the city’s popular attractions are within walking distance. We’re talking about the cathedral, the Guinigi Tower and Piazza Anfiteatro, to mention a few.

Walls & Trees

Right in the centre of Lucca, this apartment's copious amounts of artwork and complementing furniture give it a distinct style. The large windows allow in plenty of sunlight – the perfect way to wake up, if you ask us – and the small kitchenette underneath the mezzanine is a nice spot to rustle up light bites. The stairs leading down from the bedroom lack a barrier on one side, meaning caution might be needed when using the bathroom at night. When it's time to explore, the iconic Torre Guingi is only a one-minute walk, and there are many authentic Tuscan eateries nearby.

Tinted Glass

Electricity Adaptors

Multiple Sets of Keys

This dreamy penthouse captures the soul of Tuscany in every detail. Inside, you’ll find pale, creamy colours, whitewashed beams, hardwood floors and soft furnishings with inviting textures. Perfectly curated decorations strike a balance between Renaissance inspiration and modern luxury, while ambient lighting from an abundance of lamps creates a warm feeling after dark. 

But it’s out on the tiled terrace where this home truly comes to life. Here, surrounded by stucco walls, potted Mediterranean plants and neighbouring rooftops, you'll love gathering together for alfresco dinners on balmy summer evenings. Curl up in a cocooning armchair or spread out on the modular sofa to natter the night away over a bottle of Tuscan Chianti. 

In the streets just beyond the apartment, you’ll find some of Lucca’s most picturesque locales, like the cathedral – popular for its nightly Puccini concerts – just a four-minute walk away. Take your morning constitutional through the beautiful botanical gardens, right on your doorstep. You’re also near Via Del Fosso, with its spring-water fountains for you to fill your bottles with Italy’s purest aqua. 

Tuscan Reverie

Lucca is a city with a small but dense centre, full of winding alleys and peaceful palazzos. If paying a visit, it makes a great deal of sense to stay as close to this buzzing middle as possible and luckily, this apartment puts you right in the heart of the action.

While it's true that it's not one of the most characterful homes in the locale, there's much to like about it. The open living space is generously sized and benefits from lots of natural light, while the bedrooms are more minimalist in style. However, we'd be lying if we didn't say that the real star of the show is the rooftop terrace, on which you'll find an alfresco table treated to views of some of Lucca's towers.

When it comes to getting to know the destination, there are a wealth of churches and museums to visit on foot, as well as no shortage of bars and restaurants to frequent afterwards. Further afield, both Pisa and Viareggio are easily reachable, too.

Higher Power

Perfect for a couple’s retreat, this charming penthouse apartment places you in the heart of the city. With far-reaching views across Lucca to the Tuscan hills beyond, it’s easy to see why this home caught our eye. We love the glazed terrace and the wooden beams, adding character to the space – just mind your head on those sloping ceilings. Locally, you’re a mere stone’s throw away from delicious Italian eateries – so while there’s a kitchen fit for any budding chef here, dining out is sure to be on the menu.
