My husband and I stayed here for 5 nights in October and liked everything about it. The room was large, with a comfy bed, lots of storage and a nice big bathroom with storage as well. Breakfast every morning was a joy, always fresh and plenty of choices and it was nice to chat a bit with Celeste. She has excellent English and was quick to respond to my emails when I had questions before our arrival. I would definitely stay again

Highly recommend Villa Catelli which is within walking distance to Lucca’s city center. Celeste and Valerio are gracious and accommodating hosts who are knowledgeable about all things Lucca. From our daily breakfast beginning with warm croissants, cappuccinos and breakfast items of choice to having our room cleaned and refreshed everyday, it’s one of our favorite B & Bs. Also appreciated free use of bicycles and for a minimal charge, secure on site parking. Hope to return again!

Nice b&b just outside the city walls
The owners of this B&B are really nice people, always kind and always ready to answer your questions. The breakfast was really nice. Due to covid restrictions, I had to order the night before what I wanted to have for breakfast, but that was not an issue. They offer free parking and free bikes to go to the city centre. My only two small issues were that I had to work a bit on my computer but there was no electrical outlet next to the desk. I went there in May during a heat wave and I had the AC on. The AC pointed straight to the side of the bed where the pillows are which was not great. Overall, it was a great stay.

It was a very busy weekend in Lucca and we booked this last minute. It is located just outside the old city however the hosts provide you with a free bicycle which allows you easy access and the opportunity to explore the city and its surrounds

Clean, friendly and comfy.
We chose this bed and breakfast just outside the walls and was very happy with the location, an easy stroll into the centre of Lucca. The owner Elisa was very friendly. It was very clean, nice bathroom and the bed very comfy. Great breakfast and it was a bonus to take a couple of bikes out for one of the days free of charge, a nice touch. We ate all our lunches and evening meals in the Piazza Anfiteatro each day as it is so pretty and relaxing. But word of warning we had one lunch at Old Charlie's and he was a rip off merchant advertising a special but then charging full price with a threat to call the police if you don't pay what he charges, and it was the worst pizza we ate in our 7 days in Tuscany, so choose one of the other lovely restaurants over this one.

Good stay, positive recommendation
3 days of 10 travelling in Tuscany were in Lucca.Soaked up the main attractions, with time to relax,walk and cycle the city walls (several times) sample several ice creams, good restaurants,pizza bars, a tower and the Botanical Gardens. Shops typically high priced goods or tat or both as in most cities depending on tourist trade. City visit was worth 3 days of my life- no more.Hotel is recommended,v easy short walk from just outside city walls,good breakfast, friendly and efficient.
