About this property

' Puccini '... lovely apartment in the Historical Centre of Lucca

The apartment is located in the Historic Center of Lucca inside the City Walls.
It is very spacious and the rooms of this beautiful 'period' apartment open like a flower: the noble 'Tessieri' pavements act as a union between the connecting rooms: the Kitchen, the dining room and the living room for the time shared together; three bedrooms and two bathrooms where you can relax.
There is 120 sqm filled with light, and a beautiful view towards the gardens of the internal courtyard. It's spectacular to open the windows in the springtime and enjoy the pink colours of the tree in bloom.... to walk downstairs on the walls of the city shaded by the 'century old ' trees of which the colours change season after season .... will be a true pleasure! The walls of Lucca, our special and unique garden surrounding the town for 4.5km, are at 100m. Shopping facilities, museums, bars and restaurants are within 2-3min walking.

Apartment description: the apartment consists of an entrance hall, a dining room with a table seating up to 6 persons, a fully equipped kitchen with window, a salon, 2 double bedrooms, one twin bedroom, one bathroom with double sink, wc, bidet, tub and shower and one bathroom with sink, wc, and shower enclosure.
"Puccini" apartment is equipped with double-glass windows, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, hair dryers and many other small appliances. The heating system is independent.

Further details: Lucca is an ideal location for a winter break. The climate is often dry and cold in the winter which makes it a pleasant time for sight-seeing ,and the popular sights in Florence and Pisa are far less crowded than in the summer. Lucca is lovely before Christmas and good for shopping, both in town and at the various designer outlets 40 - 60 minutes from Lucca. Viareggio, only 20 minutes by train or car from Lucca, plays host to the second largest carnival celebrations in Italy. This is usually in February/March over four weekends and well worth seeing.

Visit the markets: antique and arts and crafts, the 3rd and 4th weekend of every month, the traveling market every Wednesday and Saturday
“La Strada del Vino” (the “wine tasting” road): the road for food and wine tasting connoisseurship for agricultural businesses of Lucca’s hills, local wine and oil tasting.

Further activities:: Opera: Giacomo Puccini was born right here! There are many opportunities and occasions during the year to listen to the masterpieces of the famous musician.
Summer Festival: A summer release of live concerts of international artists in the historic Napoleon Square.
The” Lucca” September: a month of cultural events, both religious and folklore. The 13th of September is not be missed: the entire city accompanies the “Saint Volto” in an atmospheric and charming procession along the streets of the historic centre.
Murabilia: a market/exhibition of mostly rare plants and flowers, held annually in the month of September on one of the most beautiful bulwark of the cities walls. Enriched by presentations, closer examinations and competitions regarding interesting themes in this sector.
Comics: the 2008 edition of the Internal release of the comic, of animated films and illustrations and games marked more than 100 000 passionate fans: not to be missed! Held in October/November.

Great place to stay!
We loved the Giovanna's apartment - it was very clean and brilliantly well equipped. We arrived a little early in the middle of a thunderstorm and Giovanna's graciously let us in and welcomed us to her apartment. We had a lovely week, the location is excellent for sight seeing, shopping and relaxing, there are great little bars, cafes and restaurants right outside the door, its an easy walk to the supermarket and there was even a roundabout/ carousel nearby which our 7 year old twins loved. The apartment has a warm welcoming feel and I loved cooking in the well equipped kitchen with the beautiful garden view. The weather was very wet the week we stayed but knowing we could come back and get warm, dry and comfortable was great. Giovanna was the perfect host.

Perfect apartment in Lucca
The Puccini apartment was a brilliant place to stay for a few days in Lucca. It is perfectly situated in the old town just off the main Piazza Napoleone. It is in easy walking distance from the bus station. The area was quiet even though it was close to a few pleasant bars/restaurants and a delicious gelateria. The apartment was spacious, comfortable and very well equipped. Although there were only 3 of us, it would have catered easily for 6. There were many nice touches, having 4 sets of keys for example. We were slightly surprised that we were charged 10 euros for needing some occasional heating as the weather had been unseasonably cool before we got there. It was a necessity rather than a luxury. However, that did not detract from the overall impression of a great authentic place to have as a base in the truly beautiful town of Lucca.

Well appointed apartment in good location
Puccini Apartment is perfectly located inside the walls, a couple of minutes walk from Porta s. Pietro. There are two bathrooms, one with a shower the other with a bath. The three bedrooms are all large and comfortable. The kitchen and dining rooms overlook a courtyard garden and huge magnolia tree at the rear. Giovanna was most helpful with local information and advice as to current events in the city. The apartment is very clean and well appointed. Would recommend.

Lovely Apartment & Location
We stayed at apartment Puccini for four nights. There were six adults in our party. We found the apartment to be very clean and spacious. It was just what we had expected. The kitchen and bathrooms were fitted to a high standard and all three bedrooms were a good size with plenty of storage space. The location was excellent with shops and restaurants only a short distance away. The owner was very helpful, providing us with I formation about Lucca, arranging our return taxi to the airport and allowing our son to store his cases in the apartment on the last day until 3pm, the official the check out time was 10am. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Lucca and would recommend the apartment.

Excellant apartment
This is the third time we have stayed in Puccini. It is a lovely apartment and a good size, nicely furnished and centrally situated. Giovanna is extremely helpful and maintained good communication with us and helped us organise transport from the airport. The apartment contains everything you need for a wonderful and relaxing Italian holiday and Lucca is the perfect spot. We will certainly be booking Puccini at some point again.
