Visitors to Lucca will never forget the spectacle of its city walls within which times has preserved images to delight the eyes. This city with its 22 centuries of history is indeed one of Italy's most evocative destinations. The new Youth Hostel is near the Church of S. Frediano, in the city centre. There are two monthly dates not to forget: an antiques market ( 3rd Sunday of each month ) and a local artisan's market ( 4th Sunday ). From Lucca you can make excursions to the Garfagnana Region, Barga, Castelvecchio, to the thermae of Bagni di Lucca, to the wonderful bridges ( the Bridge of the Chains and the Devil's Bridge ), to the Serchio Valley and why not ? Also the sea on the Versilia Riviera.

The standard of cleanliness and comfort was excellent. But would it kill the woman on the desk to smile? She is, after all, in the hospitality industry.

We loved this hostel - spacious, clean, and with friendly staff. A beautiful old building too, right next to the city walls. We wished we had booked for more than one night.

only 1 very friendly staff member (the man), the rest was not kind at all. Overall, quite expensive, since breakfast was not included. We took breakfast the first day, but this was really not good. It's a nice location, but that's all

Lucca was a wonderful stop-over and the Hostel a super place to stay. Lots of space and everything you need. Breakfast did not sound enticing but breakfast is easy to find!

This place is like a 3 or 4 star hotel. Our 3-person room was two twins below with a queen/double along with nice bathroom/shower above. Great value for the money and inside the old city. Only thing that could have been better was vending machines.
