The Rooftop Penthouse

Lucca - Apartment

The whirling detail of the Clock Tower along the elegant Via Fillungo seems close enough to touch from the windows of the CASA UGOLINO apartment located in the shadow of the Church of San Michele. While the apartment is simpler than the ornate Romanesque marbles of the Cathedral, the house is elegant in itself, with parquet floors, tall windows, Carrara marble showers, and cutting-edge interiors and appliances.Open the windows and let the vibrant atmosphere rise from the streets and the square, or turn on the dock station and listen to your favorite music while sipping a local Lucchese wine with a view of the surrounding monuments. Although surrounded by relics of centuries of Italian history, the apartment has distinctly 21st-century luxury touches such as smart TV, Wi-Fi, washer + dryer, and air conditioning.From an open-plan living room and dining room, a large 14th-century window frames the view of Via Fillungo, once the silk trade gateway throughout Europe in the Middle Ages and now the city's most iconic landmark with its historic shops.This vacation home is located on the first floor and has 2 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms: 1 private bathroom and 1 that shares access to a bathroom in the corridor.A stay in this apartment puts you in the heart of Lucca, with the Guinigi Tower, the Amphitheater, Piazza Grande (also called Piazza Napoleone), the Cathedral, Puccini concerts at the Church of San Giovanni, the Walls, secure parking, the train station and bus station just 5 minutes walk or less from the front door.
