Charming Residenza in the historic centre

Charming Residenza right in the historic centre of Lucca, about 15 minutes from Anfiteatro. The rooms were clean and comfortable and we had an adorable balcony where we breakfasted al fresco each morning. Alessandra was delightful. She speaks excellent English and was efficient and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

Well-placed comfortable B&B.

Lucca has a welcoming, easy atmosphere. Lovely old town within the amazing wall, everywhere within a walk, and worth walking the wall itself. Excellent restaurants around (rather than in) anfiteatro. No street parking for visitors, but the hotel has a great parking arrangement with nearby (3 mins) underground car park (put your card ON the machine, not IN it).

Spacious and comfy room

Alessandra was extraordinarily accommodating. She emailed in advance to ask about our arrival time and need for parking. When we arrived, she provided great assistance with parking our car (included in price) nearby and getting our luggage back and forth from the parking garage. The bedroom and bathroom were the most spacious that we had during our entire 3-week stay in Italy (at hotels in the $70-80 range).

Lucca was a pleasant surprise

Lucca was a pleasant surprise. Take in the Puccini Concerts that go on every evening for E20....much better that Snoop Dog who was also on that night (can't beleive I just said that...must be getting old!) The B&B is a great central location in a beautiful old building with parking in a garage opposite. Great value for money. Get yourself to Pisa early and buy a ticket for the leaning tower.

Beautiful historic residence

We loved staying here! The location, about a 20 minute walk from the station, is near most of the attractions of this marvelous city. The room was large and the bed very comfortable. The staff was very helpful. The historic building has a lot of charm . We highly recommend this hotel.

Short break in Lucca

Three of us shared a triple room. The B&B is very conveniently located for getting in to town and the lady running it was extremely pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was a wonderful cake fest (with a bit of cheese and ham thrown in for good measure!).

Good spot in Lucca

The breakfast here is very enjoyable. The location is good. Only complaint is that a previous guest must have spilled something (could have been vomit) on the bedroom wall and it wasn't cleaned off, and the floor needed mopping. Bed was comfortable.

Faultless, Beautiful Stay in Lucca

This is a truly wonderful B&B with classic original features and romantic bedrooms with tiled floors and beamed ceilings. Very helpful and pleasant staff who made us feel very welcomed. Great location within city walls of Lucca and with added bonus of bookable secure parking in a garage (contact hotel direct as not enough spaces for every room). A very memorable stay in a very special place.

Good stay, a little expensive for what you get

We wanted to stay inside of the city and we did with this bed and breakfast. It was ok but I would probably look for another option in the future. The staff at breakfast and at the desk were great. The airconditioning was so so and went off during the night and we fried. And, they didnt seem too have a hard and fast solution for us. The rooms were ok, the breakfast was ok. There are not a lot of good and cheap options in Lucca so this was ok but I was expecting a lot more.

We only had 1 day to see Lucca and this inn made it very easy. The location was great--just around the corner from one of our best meals in Italy -- and the staff was very attentive. We stayed in the small suite off the back courtyard and could walk out our door to their beautiful breakfast. Loved this place!

Friendly B&B Very well situated

Residenza Santa Chiara, is well located for accessing on foot the whole of the city within the ramparts. As one would expect in an old city like Lucca this is not a modern building and as a B&B rather than a hotel, does not have a lift to its two floors. The double room we had on the second floor was a good size with a large en suite bathroom. It had windows on two sides; one set overlooking the gardens of the Villa Bottini. Across the Via Santa Chiara from the Residenza was the lock up garage for three cars. This was a great boon, not only because it was included in the cost of the stay but because parking in the confines of the old city is difficult and is charged. After we had made our booking some weeks before our stay, we had received a pleasant welcoming e-mail from Signora Cipriano asking if we needed a parking space. As we did, we were able to reserve one of the limited number of spaces. If you need one, contact her by e-mail to book. Our welcome was very friendly and everyone was very helpful and obliging. Two points of info:- 1 to get to Via Santa Chiara (which is a one way street) by car you need to enter the city via the Porta Elisa on the eastern side of the city. You cannot get to it from any of the other entrances. 2 there is a tourist tax payable in cash when checking out. Not a lot (we paid 9€ total for 2 for 5 nights) but it would have been nice to have known beforehand. Hotels.com please note! We would certainly consider staying there again.
