On the Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, bask in the Tuscan sun while sipping chilled wine and nibbling juicy, Italian olives. This medieval plaza is set in the heart of the walled city of Lucca, where royalty and silk traders have mingled throughout hundreds of years of history. Just a five-minute walk from this quaint square, you can take a trip back in time and stay at your very own royal lodgings. Once a 15th-century stable belonging to Lord Guinigi, this converted palace has been renovated into a charming apartment that’s a perfect base for exploring Lucca. On the very edge of the walled city, its salmon-pink exterior stands out among the scenery. Head inside to find a sophisticated lounge with a soft blue-and-white colour scheme, along with large garden-facing windows making it feel bright and calm. You’ll experience the same serene ambiance in the master bedroom, with its Chinoiserie headboard, red sash curtain, and stunning tiled ensuite. It’s a similar story of decadence in the second bedroom, with a vaulted ceiling, chic armoire, and gold accents. Step out to the courtyard for a negroni at sunset, or enjoy a mid-afternoon snooze on the sunlounger after a few proseccos.

About Lucca
Lucca is one of Italy’s best-kept secrets. Surrounded by fortified walls, its core is a warren of pretty piazzas, traditional Tuscan trattorias, and beautifully preserved churches. Most of the action happens in Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, a vast central square lined with alfresco restaurants and Renaissance-era architecture. There’s a buzzy nightlife scene centred around cool enotecas and craft beer bars. On Via Fillungo, you’ll find some of Lucca’s finest boutiques, with high-end...
