Elevate Your Living: Heritage Meets Modernity

Welcome to a truly enchanting retreat in the heart of historic Lucca, where the past seamlessly intertwines with the present. Perched on the second floor of the distinguished Palazzo Arnolfini, a 14th-century antique palace once graced by the illustrious Arnolfini family, this modern haven invites you into a world where history meets luxury.



Step into an exquisite realm of refined living, where the timeless beauty of Jan Van Eyck's Arnolfini Portrait finds its echo in the meticulously renovated apartment. Ascend to the second floor effortlessly with the convenience of a private elevator, offering a taste of contemporary comfort within the ancient walls of Lucca.



Upon entering, the tranquil ambiance of this dwelling embraces you, accompanied by a picturesque view overlooking the inner garden of the palace. The careful renovation carried out in early 2024 ensures a seamless blend of historical charm and modern sophistication.

The interior exudes an understated elegance, providing a serene and comfortable space for relaxation and rejuvenation. With two well-appointed bathrooms, featuring modern amenities and a touch of classic Italian style, your every comfort is considered.

Outstanding Lucca Apartment

A very clean and nicely furnished home, good kitchen and appliances for home dinners, good location, responsive and very professional management. Wifi was adequate - usually around 20 gb.

ARNOLFO is the perfect elegant apartment, located in a wonderful area

The agents were available to answer questions during my stay. The apartment was better than photos and everything in perfect working order. This location within the walls is ideal. I would this next time if I'm lucky and it's available. Such a chic, clean and pleasant place to stay.

Wonderful Stay in Lucca

We stayed for 7 fun filled days in June 2023 in this great apartment, it is located within easy walking distance of everything in Lucca, and our hosts were very accomodating. Let us check in early and check out lateearly. They also made some great recommendations for a Taxi pick up service from Pisa International Airport (Tau Touring) who were on time and very reasonable.

Newly renovated location near the wall

We had a great time at the Casa Arnolfo. It is a very comfortable and spacious apartment with a lot of natural light from the beautiful windows in almost every room. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms have been modernized, tremendous amount of storage, and the kitchen is equipped with everything we needed to cook meals. The AC was a blessing during the heatwave we encountered during our stay. The apartment is very close to le Mura so we were able to take strolls easily in the morning and evening. The elevator really helped when carting heavy groceries or luggage. Lucca itself is a gem, and we look forward to returning and would love to stay in the Casa Arnolfo again.

Charming and Beautiful

We absolutely loved the apartment with it's amazing kitchen, beautiful living area and comfortable beds. The location was perfect and we look forward to returning soon. More basic cleaning supplies would be appreciated-ie more dishwashing liquid( only a very small amount was provided), and paper towels would be nice. We received only 1 dish towel- more please . Also basic cooking supplies would be appreciated- such as salt, pepper, olive oil.

2 Weeks in Luxury

This is a large modern apartment in a historic building. I have mobility issues and this apartment fit my needs perfectly. An elevator made it easy to enter and leave. A well equipped kitchen made preparing meals a snap. If you don't want to fix breakfast, the best pastry shop in Lucca is just a few steps away with great coffee for a morning wake up. I will stay here again when we come back. This apartment is perfect. I can't think of any improvement.

Perfect Place in Lucca

We really enjoyed our stay in Lucca at Casa Arnolfo. And thanks to Alice, who was very helpful with all our needs from the management company. It is located in the southeastern part of the city, in a highly residential area of Lucca. It is a 5-minute walk to the Wall. Everything inside the wall is at most a 15-minute walk. Do not rent a car in Lucca. There is no need. 15-minute walk to the train station, on the south side of the city. There is an elevator and the apartment itself is spacious, with two bedrooms, each with a bathroom. Easy walk to shops, pasticceria, enoteca, restaurants and bars. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The kitchen has a couple of challenges. It is great, especially if you cook at home a lot, which we did. There are no hot pot holders and only one tiny ice tray. But that is nit-picking a great functional kitchen. They were at worst minor inconveniences.

It’s always a joy to know our guests feel at home, especially when exploring the beautiful city of Lucca. Alice will be so pleased to hear that her support made a difference during your stay! We’re grateful for your thoughtful suggestions about the kitchen, and we’ve already added the extra touches you mentioned to make future stays even more enjoyable. It’s feedback like yours that helps us continuously improve, and we look forward to welcoming you back anytime for a seamless stay! A Presto!
