This apartment was the best part of our entire trip to Italy! Best place we have ever stayed, by far. Gabry was amazing. Responsive, caring, accommodating. I can’t say enough good things about this property. Very spacious, even better than described. This description does not do justice to how nice this apartment is. There are no words for the beauty of the terrace. We enjoyed it very much every night. Extremely clean, felt like home, but better! Our family of six could not have been happier and all agree this was our favorite place to be.

This property is so unique. Our family of 5 loved everything about it! Gabriella (the owner) was very helpful and accommodating with everything from transportation from the train station to helping with our activity planning. The apartment is spacious, clean, and very well equipped. Our favorite feature was the rooftop terrace with spectacular views of Lucca. Can’t wait to visit again!!!

Girls' Trip 2024

Not sure we can do it justice! From the personal greeting and tour when we arrived at the apartment, to the ease of communication when we had questions, Gabriella is a more than gracious host. She worked very hard on making sure our trip was just as we wanted and supplied loads of suggestions for restaurants, bakeries and day trips. The photos do not do the space justice - roomy, comfortable, and the 3 bathrooms are a bonus. The kitchen is very well stocked and there is a grocery store within a 3-minute walk. This was a girls' trip to mark 3 milestone birthdays. We spent a lot of time on the rooftop terrace! What an incredible feature. We had a delectable meal catered by Miss Laura. Highly suggest that!! Very generous portions! We could not finish everything. Loved the tomato bread soup, the mushroom risotto and the gnocchi with walnut sauce! The views from the terrace are incredible and watching the sunset with a glass of wine (or two) is the perfect ending to the day. Lucca is more than charming. Suggest the E-bike tour to a local winery as well as a day trip to San Gimingnano. We happened to be in Lucca during the Lucca Film Festival and caught Ethan Hawke walking the red carpet. Definitely want to return with my hubby. Ciao, Gabriella and grazie mille!!

We would definitely stay there again!! We are all over 70 and the 4 flights of stairs did not bother us at all. I highly recommend Gabriella as a host and as an extremely nice person. Thank you Gabriella for a wonderful vacation!

What a gem!!

Gabriella was wonderful to work with over the years as we originally scheduled to visit in 2020!! The house is perfect!! Large enough for our group of friends and family and right in the heart of Lucca. Had to have at least 30 restaurants within a 10 minute walk. The grocery store was 50 yards from the house. Gabriella gave us wonderful recommendations for restaurants and a tour company that we worked with for our trips to Cinque Terre, Montepulciano and a Truffle Hunting experience. They also provided us transfers to the airport in Pisa. Lucca itself is a wonderful city but Gabriella made it special. Can't wait to go back!!

Unforgettable stay in Lucca

My group of 3 older couples thoroughly enjoyed Gabriella's apartment. It was roomy and clean and full of character, and met all of our needs. The four flights of stone stairs, I admit, gave us our daily workouts, but we got used to them. More stairs inside took us up to a lovely rooftop terrace where we wined and dined and viewed the city at sunset. The apartment is well-situated within walking distance of the train station (with luggage, you will need a taxi), grocery, restaurants, shops, the ancient city wall, and other attractions. Just before our visit, there was some concern that the apartment might not be available for our entire stay, but the problem was resolved to our satisfaction. After our stay, a cleaner found some items that one of us had forgotten. Gabriella contacted me and graciously found a way to return them promptly, which we very much appreciated. We loved our time in Lucca and Gabriella's apartment was the perfect spot for us.

This is the second time we have stayed at Gabriella's house and it was just as amazing an experience as the first. The rooms are comfortable, the kitchen is a lovely place to cook and you can't beat the location in Lucca. The rooftop terrace makes it all worth it. Gabriella is incredibly easy to work with, checking us in, giving us travel advice and making sure we were okay throughout our visit. We look forward to our third trip!

Location, Location,Location

We just spent 8 days in Lucca at “Gabriella”. What a wonderful week. Gabriella’s home is on the 3rd floor of a beautiful old building in the center of Lucca. The location is perfect. You are able to walk to all the historic sites, wonderful restaurants and great shopping. There is a meat market , produce stand and a coffee shop just around the corner. Gabriella’s home is clean, confortable, well-appointed and full of character. The view from the 5th floor roof top terrace is breathtaking both during the day and the evening. The steps to the 3rd floor and then to the roof top can be a challenge, but a well planned day/outing will minimize the need for repeated entrance into the apartment. Your host, Gabriella, is charming, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. She assisted with our arrival from Pisa and our departure to the local car rental. We were grateful to have such a helpful caring host with such a lovely home. The week was a real opportunity to experience the real Lucca. Thank you Gabriella.

Our group of 5 had a wonderful stay at Gabriella’s apartment. Well situated for everything in Lucca, this apartment made moving about the old walled city a breeze. The well equipped kitchen was perfect for breakfast, the living area and bedrooms were sized perfectly. Even though the weather wasn’t great we enjoyed several meals on the terrace which offered outstanding views of Lucca. We would definitely recommend this apartment. Gabriella is an outstanding hostess, even helping with our luggage both into and out of the apartment!! She was very welcoming and helpful!! Can not praise this place enough!!

Great Apartment In A Wonderful City

Gabriella was a gracious host for our seven day visit to Lucca. While steps are required to reach her apartment, the rewards are many. The apartment was clean and spacious with lots of character. Three full bathrooms were great for helping our group of seven get ready each morning. The outdoor roof terrace is a fabulous amenity. Enjoy morning coffee or evening drinks up there, any excuse to experience the amazing views. We found Lucca to be a charming town to settle in for several days. While relaxing and manageable, you would never run out of great restaurants, outdoor cafes, gelaterias, shops and cultural amenities to enjoy. We enjoyed walking around the wall each morning to people watch and exercise after so much gelato! We also arranged fun day excursions to Cinque Terre and Chianti, each about 90 minutes away. Florence and Pisa are easy to reach by train. You will love both Lucca and Gabriella's apartment!

Fabulous apartment in Lucca

This apartment was one of the high points of our 3-week trip to Italy in Sept 2019. A high point literally and figuratively, its a top-floor apartment, 57 steps to climb, there is no lift/elevator. That is the only downside. But for that, you get a rooftop deck that has a panoramic view of the old city sections of Lucca. There is a very spacious and well-equipped kitchen, air conditioning, modern bathrooms, very comfortable beds and furnishings. The neighborhood was very quiet at night during our stay. The location is stellar, less than 200 meters from the Piazza Anfiteatro. Easy walk to multiple restaurants, shopping, and all sorts of activities. The landlady was extremely helpful to us and a lot of fun to chat with. She gave us many helpful recommendations. We would love to go back soon!

Best view in Lucca

Seven of us spent a week in Lucca and loved our stay. The apartment is amazing...lots of space, modern bathrooms, and absolutely the best view in town! We didn't want to leave. Of course, there are a number of stairs to climb to the rooftop terrace but it is worth it, and it kept us in shape for sightseeing. We didn't cook, but the kitchen was fully equipped and comfortable and perfect for our morning coffee and quick breakfast. Gabriella made us feel like family and gave us recommendations for restaurants and activities and was extremely helpful in every way. She is delightful. As for Lucca, it is easy to walk anywhere inside the walled city from this apartment and easy to take day trips to Siena, Florence, San Gimignano and more--and most of all, it is a welcome and restful 'home base', so much so that we skipped a couple of the day trips to spend more time in Lucca. Lucca was the best part of our 2.5 week trip! Thank you, Gabriella.

Fantastic roof terrace with 360° view, good for large family, inside walls downtown, well maintained

3 generations spend Easter break 2018 in Gabriella’s lovely apartment, privacy for all 3 generations with separate sleeping rooms and bathrooms 3 reasons for staying here 1. Roof terrace offering 360° views of Lucca & mountains 2. Central location inside the walls - close to restaurants, shopping, backers and the famous Piazza dell’ Anfiteatro and good for morning runs on the walls 3. Very well maintain - bathrooms, sleeping rooms etc and yet still with old Tuscany fashion charm And not to mention the extremely lovely host Gabrialla who even picked up the grand parents in the airport 2 things to be aware off - it is on top floor and have 3 flood of stairs and additional 2 floors to get to roof terrace. Secondly as this is as central as it gets the parking is 1km away. Can highly recommend this place and would stay here again if we are coming to the region (not only the city as this is close to both Pisa and Florence and the mountains) Danish Family - 3 generations Christer

Lovely, well-equipped apartment with spectacular view

We loved this apartment and would stay here again. The owner, Gabriella, was terrific. She was honest, accommodating, friendly, and extremely helpful. The apartment was clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the location made it easy to get anywhere in the old town on foot. The kitchen had everything we needed. We just loved having afternoon cocktails on the rooftop patio, with its 360° views. As advertised, this apartment is definitely not the place for someone who has difficulty with stairs, but other than that, it was a wonderful place to spend 10 days in Lucca!
