“A historic hotel, set within Lucca's renaissance walls, that's undergone a complete refurb. Interiors mix the building's Neoclassical style with sleek modern touches. The restaurant serves dishes that are a contemporary twist on regional fare and there's a chic bar too. A stylish & grown-up base.”
