Description

The Artist's Loft is an apartment in San Michele, Lucca, with garden and city views from some of its accommodations.

Four apartment layouts range from 30 to 45 m² and sleep two to four people, with private bathrooms, kitchens, air conditioning and flat-screen TVs. Some have a balcony or landmark views; one offers a spa bath, while the smallest layout includes garden views.

Each apartment has a private entrance and a dining area, and the kitchens provide essentials such as a refrigerator, stovetop, oven, kitchenware and coffee machine. Several layouts also have a dishwasher, and some include a washing machine. Free WiFi is available, while parking is not provided. The setting puts Museo Nazionale di Palazzo Mansi 50 m away and Piazza Napoleone 450 m away. Lucca Train Station is 900 m from the apartment. Travellers who value a private kitchen and a choice of layouts can stay close to museums, historic buildings and the city’s central streets.
