Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms in the clock tower dating back to the 14th century are lovely and well-appointed, perfectly complementing the building's historical charm. The location is ideal for exploring Lucca's maze of streets and historic buildings, although being directly on the main shopping street may make it a bit noisy. The service was exceptional, with the staff being incredibly nice, helpful, and accommodating to our needs. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the breakfast menu could benefit from more variety.

My stay at the hotel was incredible. The rooms were well appointed and very much in keeping with the age of the building, making for an unbelievably cool experience. The view of the church directly across the street from my room was awesome, creating a perfect atmosphere. However, the price seemed a bit on the higher side.
