Guest Reviews
- Aruta (9/5): - Casa davvero bella e caratteristica, situata al centro di Lucca e molto vicina alla stazione. Ci siamo trovati benissimo!
- Alexander (10/5): - We arrived a little ahead of schedule but were welcomed and able to check in super quickly. The room was very conveniently situated in the centre of Lucca, with easy access to most things. The only downside would be the 6 flights of stairs to reach our room!
- Rasmus (10/5): Den mest charmerende lejlighed i skønne Lucca - Meget charmerende og vidunderlig beliggenhed Intet
- Katia (7/5): Nice short stay in Lucca for the Summer Festival - Location was top-notch: really close to everything you might need for a nice weekend (+ the Lucca Summer Festival).
Luana, the host, was really welcoming The bathroom: it had all we needed but being it detached from the bedroom, there wasn't any air conditioning - way too hot for these summer days.
Stairs: I think it should be detailed better in the description that there were quite a lot of stairs to the room
- Ben (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gray (9/5): Views forever - The views are indeed panoramic. We had a few of a clock tower and a church tower on one side and the Roofs of Luca on the other. Because we were up so high, we left the windows open and could hear the sounds of Luca. It’s a small thing, but after a big day of walking the Via Francigena, there were a lot of steps to get up to the apartment. But the view was worth it.
- Matthew (10/5): - Lucca was a stunning city, and this aparthotel was really conveniently located. It was a beautiful place to stay too, and the host was communicative and made me feel so welcome.
I’d highly recommend staying here!
- Enrico (10/5): - Amazing place if you’re travelling around in tuscany or neighbouring cities. The place is spacious. Bathroom is separate but private in the hallway. Super quiet area, restaurants nearby and 20min walk from Lucca station. Host is super nice and reachable via whatsapp.
Appartamento fantastico per andare in Toscana o in altre città vicine. L’appartamento è molto grande, il bagno è separato ma privato in il corridoio. In vicino all’appartamento ci sono molte ristoranti e ci sono solo 20 minuti a piedi per arrivare alla stazione di Lucca.
- Pavlos (10/5): Thanks a mill for your hospitality! We had an amazing stay! Looking forward to be back! - All was AMAZING All was AMAZING
- Shirley (10/5): A cozy stay in a perfect location - A cozy and quiet suite for three nites in the heart of historic Lucca. Perfetto!
Cool December nites were no match for our cozy room. The bed and bedding made for great slumber, and the hot shower was welcomed after long days of exploring and dining. A separate room for lounging over a cup of tea was welcomed too.
77 steps up to our suite were not a problem for us ( both seniors) but for anyone with mobility issues it would not be suitable. (The young host did kindly offer to carry our bags.)
The climb is well worth it and affords lovely views of the rooftops and a tower whose clock always indicates 10:31😉
- Andrew (8/5): - My wife and I spent 11 nights in this nicely located apartment. The apartment had some charming old features and provided good views over rooftops to the Guinigi tower and beyond. The 79 steps to reach the apartment kept us fit! The shower room was just outside the apartment, but this was not too inconvenient. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here.
- James (9/5): Superb -
- Kyle (9/5): Perfect location. Historical bldg in the historical center. - Location was great and had separate living room kitchen from the bedroom, all spacious. While not a problem for us, there are about 80 steps up to the flat.
- Michael (8/5): Quirky genuine home stay in Tuscany - Lovely stay in a genuine Tuscan home. We are a family with two under three. Very cute lodgings and central stay.
- Anne (8/5): Location. Comfort. View. Great hosts. - Central location in old city. View of towers. Lovely decor. Comfy bed. A refrigerator. Walk to everything including the supermarket! Friendly, helpful hosts. The stairs!
- Massimiliano (10/5): - Abitazione di grandissimo fascino con una eccezzionale vista sui tetti di Lucca e sulle sue torri e campanili. Incredibile la Torre Guinigi, la poteva quasi toccare con mano! Tutto vicinissimo, abbiamo passato tre splendide giornate in una civilissima città che merita sicuramente più di una visita!
- Alessandro (8/5): - .
- Coenraad (10/5): - Great location and appartment. Dupermarket is very closeby and within a minute in the central street. Seperate bathroom can be a hassle for some. The view from the appartment over Lucca more than makes up for it, as does the host. Great tips for food and drinks.
- Madeline (10/5): Exceptional -
- Cristina (10/5): highly recommend staying at Altana Panoramic - The apt is on the top floor of a centrally located building w wonderful views of Lucca.
- Marco (10/5): Tutto ok. Consigliato. - Massima ospitalità, tutto perfetto.
- Janna (9/5): A quiet midieval apartment with a great view in town. Be ready to walk four flights of stairs. - The view, historical context of the place and peacefulness was perfect. It was a dream once in a lifetime vacation for us. Thank you! Your hospitality was genuine and much appreciated.
- James (8/5): - Great apt close to all in beautiful Lucca. The only thing was the stairs, to bad there wasn’t an elevator but otherwise recommended
- Verified traveler (8/5): Exceptional view - Apartment with character and exceptional view in the middle of the historic centre. Friendly and helpful host.
- paul c. (10/5): Lovely Lucca! - My husband and I were delighted with our stay in Lucca. Our proprietor was punctual, friendly, clearly explained everything we needed to know and was available if we had any questions. The apartment was ENCHANTING. It was truly more lovely than the pictures. The neighborhood was quiet, I enjoyed gazing out the windows over the rooftops as the breeze floated through the windows. Everything was comfortable and clean. Our host gave us a recommendation for dinner at a nearby seafood restaurant which was intimate and delicious. We couldn't have been happier with our stay in lovely Lucca!
- Carina (8/5): - Charmigt boende med perfekt läge. Frukost (kaffe och croissant) på närliggande cafe.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Très bien ! - Très bon accueil, et lieu atypique !
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice livable space & kitchenette was functional for us.
We cooked small meals at apartment on the Christmas Day.
Great location in the town yet very quiet place.
Just let you know there is no elevator. Must walk up stairs 8 or more flights. Wonderful view from living room.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Great location - Friendly staff, with good recommendations for restaurants
- Josh (10/5): Lovely views over rooftops - Lovely appartment in a perfect location. Really convenient, great little kitchenette. We enjoyed staying high up, but it would be hard if you struggled with stairs.
- Deanna (10/5): - Great location to explore charming Lucca. The "Tower Suite" was very spacious and comfortable. The bathroom was just outside our room but the shower was large and it was still quite private since there are only 2 guest suites. Breakfast (coffee, cereal, pastries, toast) was served directly in the room at our specified time. The air conditioning kept the top floor room cool and the bed was comfortable. It is in an older building with many stairs but we wanted historic charm and we were pleased with our experience. Lucrezia was a very helpful and accommodating hostess. Thank you for a lovely experience!
- Steve (8/5): Great spot to be based in Lucca - Very good apartment, with nice welcoming people keeping it clean and provisioned. You need to be fit to make the stairs as it's at the top of the building but it's very secure and comfortable. If you're planning on making it up the towers and church domes of the area, you'll not mind stairs anyway. Lovely breakfast and very helpful people, Lucida and Rebecca, offering help with finding places and local amenities and services. It would be good to have a bigger fridge for full size water bottles and being British, we missed not having a small kettle in the room to make tea, but these are small quibbles really. Overall if you want a Tuscany base, especially if travelling by bike, bus or train, it would be hard to find a better location and place to stay.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It is a really nice place with a really nice view. I would have appreciated if somewhere in the description it said that I had to go up almost 70 stair steps. Like many hotels inside the wall you can not go in with your car so you have to carry your luggage through the city and then up the stairs. We were here one night so we just took the necessary things for one day and left the rest in the car.
Breakfast was nice and the girl in charge was also very pleasant.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Charming apartment nicely furnished with views - Only issue would be the climb with luggage up the four floors to the apartment.
- Rachel (8/5): - Charming 6-Floor walk-up in the heart of beautiful Lucca. Super cute decor and lovely views. Bed was so-so but A/C was welcomed in July! Definitely don’t try to park in the old city - driving is a nightmare!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Highly recommended! - Great place, comfortable, central, very friendly host.
- Miki&Fede (10/5): Ottimo soggiorno - Altana Panoramic si trova in una posizione ottima per visitare Lucca. La vista dalla camera è bellissima. Buona la colazione.
- marc (8/5): SEJOUR AGREABLE A LUCCA - 1ere nuit d'un voyage de 5 nuits en italie
contacté par mail via hôtel.com puis surWhatsapp directement par Lucrezia notre hôtesse, cela a facilité "l atterrissage" dans la "zone a trafic limité" (une horreur en Italie surtout le lendemain à Florence...): tres gentiment elle nous a guidé
l appartement au dernier étage est lumineux,spacieux
le petit déjeuner pourrait être amélioré (pourquoi pas du pain frais il y a une boulangerie en bas de l immeuble)
- Verified traveler (8/5): - CURA DEI PARTICOLARI, ARREDAMENTO RICERCATO ED ELEGANTE, SICURAMENTE UNA SOLUZIONE OTTIMA PER PASSARE UN WEEK END NEL CENTRO DI LUCCA.
- annalisa (4/5): Si ci può lavorare su!!! - Non è un appartamento adatto ad una famiglia,sempre se non si vuole dormire con le brandne, perché di brandine pieghevoli parliamo, tutti in una stanza oppure in salone con cucina senza tende oscuranti o persiane ... non credo sia nemmeno molto sicuro perché vecchio e di questi tempi non ci si può permettere di andare allo sbaraglio visto le numerose scosse sismiche !!!
E comunque l appuntamento necessità di più manutenzione in generale !!
- Bruce (10/5): Central location, historic feel - The apartment had lots of windows and you could see sky and rooftops from all of them. Apartment had a small functional kitchen and there was a good grocery a block away. Bathroom was small but had everything needed. Decorated with furniture that matched the feel of the space. Simple breakfast served, which we supplemented with our own purchases. You will have to negotiate about 4 flights of stairs, but that was not a problem for us.
- Donatella (10/5): Appartamento molto curato in ottima posizione - Sono rimasta molto soddisfatta appartamento molto romantico e accogliente comodissimo per visitare Lucca.
- Johnny (10/5): Idyllic apartment in idyllic City of Lucca - The style of the apartment was exactly how I imagined staying in the city of Lucca. Great location.
- Bjørn (10/5): Kan anbefales - Veldig hyggelig vertskap og sjarmerende sted
- Verified traveler (8/5): Helt perfekt ophold.... - Helt fint ophold, men det var alt for varmt om natten, hvilket gør oplevelsen lidt mindre god. Alt i alt fint og lokalt sted:)
- Verified traveler (6/5): Sentralt med mange trappe - Litt gammelt, men fint å kunne se utover noe av byen. Seng for to var ok, men enkeltseng var bare utfellbar ekstraseng.
- Paul (10/5): I could live here. - Great for us. Beautiful room with fantastic views. Lovely host and nice attention to details. Lots of stairs, not a problem for us, woke up to bird songs and sunrise light on the famous tower.
- Judith (10/5): Charming, historic bedroom suite in old town Lucca - Lovely comfortable bedroom suite in one of the very old historic tall houses, typical in northern Italy. The room was on the 5th floor, with no elevator, so other potential guests should understand this. But the location right in the middle of old town Lucca was superb for walking and seeing the sites. Grocery store, restaurants, all very close by. The owner was very kind and helpful, and the continental breakfast was brought right up to the room in the morning. The bathroom was not en suite, but was just outside my door and got my private use.
- Jack (10/5): Beautiful apartment - After spending weeks traveling all over Italy, this was one of, if not THE, best place we stayed at! Quiet, charming, rustic top floor apartment. Sweetheart young hostess. Lots of stairs to climb...but well worth it!! Will definitely stay at again when back in Lucca.
- n2taka (8/5): 隠れ家のような場所 - いわゆるホテルではなく、普通の家庭を客用に改造したような屋根裏部屋です。
部屋の窓からは、ルッカのシンボルの一つであるグイジーニの塔が間近に見え、なんとなく得した気分になります。
部屋は5階ですが、エレベーターはありません。荷物は各自階段を持ち運び上げなければなりません。
いわゆるホテルではないので、ポーターはいませんから大きな荷物はちょっと考えものです。
- Karin (8/5): Centralt med charm - Charmig liten våning med antik känsla. Trapporna var många på väg upp. Men det var det värt. Söta små systrar som värdpar.
- Annie (8/5): LOTS OF STAIRS - My boyfriend and my grandparents stayed at Altana Panoramic. Let me just say that if you're okay with walking up 9, yes NINE, flights of stairs to reach your apartment, the go for it! The views were beatiful and the charm to the apartment was really nice.
Couple of warnings:
If you have more than two people, expect a roll-away. I ended up taking the mattress off the frame of my roll away bed because it kept collapsing. The mattress itself directly on the floor was extremely firm and I felt like I was pretty much sleeping on the floor. I definitely don't think it's fair to charge extra for additional guests when the beds provided aren't adequate. The breakfast provided was some milk, cereal, and danishes.
- Verified traveler (10/5): 足腰の強い人にお勧めの宿 - エレベーターはありませんでしたが、窓からの景観は最高でした。お部屋もアンティークな感じです、朝食を部屋へ準備してくれて、ゆっくりと過ごせました。
どこに行くにも近く、お勧めの宿です。係のお姉さんもとても親切で、出来ること出来ないことをハッキリ言ってくれるので気を使わずにとっても楽でした。また泊まりたくなる素晴らしい宿です。
- Christian H. (8/5): Wonderful stay, lovely flat - Helpful hostess, a central location, a beautiful flat and delicious breakfast. Hard to ask for more--I'd gladly recommend staying here.
- Cristina (10/5): Great B&B in central Lucca - The B&B was perfect. Location great - central old city of Lucca. Shops, restaurants, churches, history - all within seconds of B&B. The only thing to be aware of is that there are 4 flights of stairs to reach it. If walking or climbing is an issue then one might want to reconsider.. But then, most old cities in Italy don't have elevators. We loved it. Great view of old City.
- Anders (10/5): rent og meget stille hotellejlighed - rigtig dejlig hotellejlighed, særdeles roligt og stille. 75 meter fra den dejlige plads, supermarked 50 m - og tær ved det hele. Venlig pige kom og satte morgenmad frem, lavede kaffe, varmede mælk - og da vi satte det i opvaskeren mente hun at hun ville tømme den. God service. Kommer nok igen......
- Astrid (8/5): Værelse med udsigt - Dejligste beliggenhed! elendig morgenmad, pas på med parkering, der er marked onsdag og lørdag og der kan ikke parkeres indenfor murene v. Marzzini området.
- Mariana (8/5): Lucca - Dificil de encontrar
Muchas ecaleras si traes maletas
Buen servicio

- Verified traveler (8/5): - Very much a B&B, please note there is no reception as such. Make sure you have your maps sorted beforehand! Lovely room overlooking the ceramic rooftops. Bathroom is not connected internally to your room but is no issue. Breakfast was provided in our room at our requested time. Very central location. Don't rely on taxi's in Lucca! The lady called them twice for us and they never turned up so we had to walk - is only about a 15 min walk to the station though.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Heart of Lucca. - Our family stayed 2 nights. We slept soundly in this top of the building, very near to everywhere we were hoping to visit in Lucca.
- JON (8/5): - We spent 2 nights here and we had a lovely time. The only downside was the number of steps to get to the apartment and the pressure in the shower was very poor. Everything else was perfect for our short stay.
- Cecelia (10/5): Nice apartment in the middle of town - We loved our apartment in the sky. We were conveniently located near great restaurants, shops and one of the entrances to the city. It was quiet and peaceful. Would come again.
- Love to travel (6/5): Nice stay - Too many stairs but the room was very nice , good location, good views
