Residence Santa Chiara
The bed & breakfast Residence Santa Chiara is an ancient bourgeois house built in the second half of the 16th century, in the historical center of Lucca inside the medieval boundaries. It is located in front of the suggestive gardens of Bottini Villa, once residence of Elisa Bonaparte. From Residence Santa Chiara, you can easily reach all principal historical attractions of the old city in a few minutes and the beautiful sights of Tuscany.
Restructured in January 2006, our house is composed of the main building with all guest rooms. Our rooms dispose of a private bathroom and air-conditioning. At a distance of 80 to 100 mt you will find our separate dependance.
From June to September, guests can enjoy their breakfast buffet in our little garden.
