"Slap-bang in the centre of walled Lucca, inside a staggeringly historic building, hostellers won't get closer to the action than this." Full review
"Adjacent to San Frediano and part of the former Real collegio, this offers hotel comforts at guesthouse prices. Comfortable and spacious public areas, plus a lovely garden."
"Lucca’s one HI hostel, conveniently located just inside the walls. Very simple rooms, with a nice garden and shared spaces. Midnight curfew; €19, double rooms."
