    We have stayed in Lucca many times over the years, in hotels and apartments.
    We have nothing but praise for the Casa Laura apartment, it's location and it's facilities. First it is roomy. The bedroom has a master bed which is large with an ensuite bathroom. It has ample storage space and lots of light through the large window. The Family/Living room has a very comfortable couch, arm chair, and TV though we had little time to watch TV. The second bathroom is huge with a grand shower. The A/C is excellent in both the master bedroom and Living rooms. The kitchen is superb, Good light through the Patio facing window, large table that amply seats four. Good sized fridge, stove top and oven all work well. Good sized sink and dish washer. The best feature is the patio with a large fluffy sofa, table seating for four, great cushioned seating areas and plants that enclose it making it a private garden.
    The location in the centre of Lucca, right inside Porta San Pietro is excellent and with close access to the wall. Paid parking is just 5 minutes away and the lot, Parcheggio Mazzini has tons of room and available 24 hours a day. The train station is a 5 minutes walk at most. Everything in the walls is just few minutes walk.
    Sonia is easily reachable though we only used her to reserve a cab for us when we left.
    We plan on a return trip to Lucca and would definitely stay again at the Casa Laura apartment.

    Sonia is very kind and attentive. The apartment is spacious, lovely and well-appointed. It's location is ideal: very quiet neighborhood, easy access to the wall, and an easy walk to many excellent restaurants and bars.
    The benefit of two full baths cannot be overstated.
    The terrace is spacious, private, and very comfortable. We used it daily.
    Two minor points: the wooden pallets need to be removed from the terrace, and it would be great if there were actually two bicycles, as there were formerly.
    Fantastic property. We will return.
    Arrivederci!

    What a wonderful appartment ❤️
    We stayed in Casa Laura for one week,and it couldn't have been more perfect for us!!!
    It was light,tasteful,clean,spacious,quite and had THE most wonderful roof terrace.
    We had a bathroom each 😊...spacious walk in closet with washing machine etc....and the kitchen was well equipped.
    Yes,there were a "few" steps to walk from the street,but no problem....could eat more great food and have some more wine and do the steps as excersise😊
    We used the wall around the city for our morning walk/jogg....the ramp was only a few meters from the front door.
    Lucca is amazing.Our 4.time here,but not our last.
    Plenty of wonderful shopping to do,concerts and antique market(3.weekend each month),perfect places to eat etc...
    We rented a car and went to some wineries up in the hills around Montecarlo...wonderful !!
    Well..enough talk...we recommend Casa Laura with all our heart !!! It was perfect,and we like to rent it again 😊
    And,Mrs Sonia was so welcoming and easy to talk to...a women to depend on 👍

    This is our second time at a Luccaapartmentsandvillas very nice accomodations. Nicely appointed and amentities, ie soap, coffee,paper towels, etc. We are very comfortable in Lucca, so we did not need to use the office staff, but its nice to know they are there if needed. I strongly rec'd using their services, its just so easy and they bring you right into apt. So much nicer than a hotel, coffee in your PJ's, a kitchen to make snacks, and the most amazing terrace with a magnificent view! I will def use again.

    We were so enchanted by our stay in Lucca in general and in this apartment in particular. Such a wonderful medieval city to explore and discover it's many delights. This apartment was the perfect location to be able to walk easily everywhere in Lucca. The apartment is elegant and very comfortable. It is all that the beautiful pictures depict. It is quiet, clean, luxurious and just perfect for a singlea couple. Sonia was very helpful and responded immediately to any request. I highly recommend this apartment for a delightful stay in Lucca. One caveat, there are 4 flights of stairs and no elevator....so caution for those with limited mobility.....however, Sonia has many other properties equally as tasteful with no stairs if desired.

    The stars of this apartment are the owner and the apartments location. It is literally about a 100m walk to the entrance of the Cathedral on one side and around 80m to the new Contemporary Art Museum and the shopping streets on the other side. We walked to all the major sights from the apartment. The owner was great, she gave us a thorough introduction to the apartment and then a tour of the local neighbourhood, which we really appreciated as it made finding cafe, supermarket and shops much easier the next day. We also appreciated her buying us an espresso, not just because Italian coffee is great, but because it allowed us to see how the cafe ordering system works - absolutely nothing like how it works here in US! The apartment is spacious and was perfect for a senior couple. Even though it's in the center of the town it's not noisy at all, as the square and streets nearby are mainly pedestrian. The kitchen was very well supplied and the beds were comfortable. We loved the romantic view of the churches and the roofs of the old buildings! We loved our stay. Thank you! Jenny & James

    We would have no hesitation in recommending the Laura apartment, and we fully intend to use it again unless we decide that we need two bedrooms on our next trip to Lucca - and if we do, we'll be booking another apartment from Mrs Sonia.
    We found the apartment generally spacious and well appointed. The bedroom is generous as well as the kitchen/dining/living area, and good storage space.
    Although it was late in the year for us to actually use the terrace very much, being able to have the doors open and not be overlooked in such a central city neighborhood was lovely. It was also very quiet at night.
    We found the combined washer/dryer to be very useful.
    We also loved the location. As returning visitors to Tuscany we were familiar with the area, but had never lived there before for such a long time. It was a matter of minutes to the railway station and to parking, the location was very convenient. We even walked along the walls one night, but that might be a venture only for people who are used to long walks in the nature!
    It was our second time renting an apartment from Mrs Sonia and we would definitely recommend the apartment Laura and we would certainly use it again. Thank you!

    My home base for the 4 weeks I spent in Tuscany was beautiful Lucca. It truly is a hidden gem & a perfect base for those without a car. I stayed in the beautiful Casa Laura and I cannot wait to get back. My easy train ride from Roma Termini station to Lucca was capped off by a warm welcome by Sonia (one of the owners) who whisked me off to my apartment rental. Although the train station is only a 5/7 minute walk, it was lovely to picked up by car with my luggage. Sonia and Cristina took great care of me & were quick to address any questionsrequests I had. The apartment features a large kitchen & open living rooms. Both bedroom and the two bathrooms are a nice size & the linens and towels were clean & comfortable. Bathrobe was provided, a great bonus. The wifi was great for updating my blog about Italy & I used the great washing machine and the dryer a lot so that I could pack lighter. Sonia and Cristina have supplied me with all of the comforts of home including dishes, cookware etc... just pack your clothes & forget your troubles in Lucca. This apartment has the most incredible patio & I spent numerous hours sipping wine & enjoying my patio with friends. What I loved most about it was its central location. It was a quick walk to espresso bars, restaurants & shops, not to mention the numerous historical & religious sites all throughout Lucca. My favorite spot was looking out over the square while sipping coffee near the Caffè Dele Mura (on the walls). A walk to the walls & you are rewarded with a breathtaking view, not to mention great exercise for justifying all those gelatos you will want. The people of Lucca are so nice & welcoming, but you would do yourself well to learn at least a rudimentary amount of Italian. If not just out of respect for the Italian people, but also to help you feel more at ease. You will find that in most of the small hill towns not much English is spoken. Honestly though, after the culture shock of OVER touristy Rome....the beauty & simplicity of Lucca is so refreshing. The food of Lucca is incredible & beautifully simple. As a Chef I was overwhelmed by the freshness of produce, salamis & pastas. The wines of this region are incredible & inexpensive. As a solo female traveler I must say I felt perfectly safe in Lucca. If you If you are a "Slow Traveler" & you like leisurely paced meals & environs, then Lucca is perfect place to experience the beauty of Tuscany. I'm already planning my trip back with Sonia next summer!
