Directly across from the iconic Palazzo Pfanner and the picturesque Piazza San Michele, and just a short walk from the enchanting cafes of Piazza San Frediano and the designer boutiques of Via Fillungo, you are perfectly positioned to explore the city's rich heritage.
Begin your day with a delightful breakfast, taking in private views of medieval churches and baroque architecture from your grand windows.

My wife and I stayed at Gimber Tales apartment for a month from the middle of September to the middle of October. We found the apartment to be well equipped and convenient to use as a base to explore Lucca. When we arrived on the weekend of The Luminaria of Santa Croce. The city was abuzz with visitors. The apartment was very noisy during the festival. As soon as the festival was over the crowds left and the noise level returned to normal. One of the nice features about the apartment is the limited number of stairs. if you have older knees you will appreciate that it is only one floor up. The kitchen was equipped well enough to cook you own meals if you so
chose. The bedrooms and baths were spacious and had plenty of storage. I would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation to the staff at Lucca Apt and Villa. Our apartment manager Christina and her co workers went above and beyond to assist us in a matter of recovering a purse that was left on a train. I can't thank them enough |

We (two couples) have just spent a month at Gimber Tales and I can honestly say it was faultless. The professionalism from point of booking through to departure was outstanding. The apartment was perfect, large, comfortable and with everything you need to prepare a meal or minutes walk to restaurants and bars to dine out. The location is ideal, out of the tourist pathways and consequent noise, and with easy access to an entrance onto the wall for morning strolls. Washing machine is ideal for longer stays, beds are very comfortable, linen is high quality and the showers are the best we’ve experienced in Italy. It’s our second rental through Lucca Appartments and Villas and we’re looking forward to our third!

The apartment could do with a broom rather than the vacuum that is there as there is little it no carpet and it is very cumbersome otherwise the apartment was perfect. Thank you again!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience at Gimber Tales! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic month-long stay. Providing exceptional service from booking to departure is our top priority, and we're delighted to know that you found our professionalism outstanding.
It's fantastic to hear that the apartment met all your needs and more. From its spaciousness to its amenities, we're glad you found everything you needed for a comfortable stay. And we couldn't agree more about the location – being away from the tourist crowds yet still conveniently close to restaurants, bars, and the wall entrance makes for a perfect balance. We're delighted that you appreciated the little details, like the quality of the linen and the comfort of the beds, as well as the convenience of having a washing machine for longer stays. And it's high praise indeed to hear that our showers rank among the best you've experienced in Italy! We truly appreciate your loyalty as returning guests, and we're already looking forward to hosting you for your third stay. Thank you again for choosing Lucca Apartments and Villas. We can't wait to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience! |
