Returned here after staying last year. Different room this year. Could hear the adjoining rooms quite clearly. Need some sound proofing. Pool area also needs updating as the wooden panel flooring has seen better days. Overall a good experience and would recommend.

A Jewel of a Villa near Lucca
We stayed at Villa La Principesa for the first night of a 27-day-holiday in Europe. Arriving exhausted late in the evening in a rental car from Rome, we were warmly welcomed to the villa. While we were still in the car on the gravel drive, a female receptionist stepped out through the door frame and beckoned us indoors. Next, an amiable bellman took our bags to our lovely room on the top floor, where we slept peacefully on beautiful linens in a comfortable bed, with the window flung open to the night air and the sights and sounds of Tuscany. Our room and bathroom were spotless. The next morning we enjoyed a lavish buffet breakfast, served in an elegant dining room, waited on by several gentlemen. The food was so tasty; the variety, delightful. The villa is huge, and old, yet well maintained, with a marvellous history, as explained to us by a male front desk attendant. You will need plenty of time to meander through the massive rooms of this mansion, taking photos of all the salons, each with high coffered beamed ceilings, antique furniture, enormous fireplaces, and interesting artwork. Likewise, you can almost get lost while exploring and photographing the incredible gardens that surround the villa. If you enjoy history and appreciate the stately mansions of the past, while feeling pampered as the lord and lady of the villa, don't miss staying here. Lucca, a fantastic walled town, is just a short drive away.

From the "old worldly" charm of the building and the décor to the lemon trees and rose bushes in the gardens, we couldn't believe our luck at having chosen this hotel. The bedrooms are spacious and relaxing with high ceilings and large windows overlooking the Tuscan scenery. The downstairs lounge areas are furnished with inviting antique furniture which has a "lived in" feel making it all the more cosy. The staff were very charming and always available to give advice on local excursions or restaurants in Lucca centre. We would love to be back there now.
