Halfway through our two-week Italian vacation, we spent three nights at Albergo Villa Marta. Reading reviews and seeing photos on TripAdvisor, this hotel seemed like it would be a great choice, just as our first two properties in Rome and San Gimignano. After a little bit of work finding the hotel, we were rewarded with a pleasant surprise driving through the gate. Immediately, we thought, if only we had more than three nights! Having someone offer to help with our luggage, and being treated to full service amenities in such a small property was completely unexpected. Then we arrived at our room - 104. The space, the decor, the comfort of the bed and the view were all fantastic. It was a true haven for my partner since she was not feeling well when we arrived.
We did not intend to have dinner at the hotel...we wanted to get out and try something "local" in Lucca. However, we stayed in the first night and gave it a try. Wow! How mistaken we were to discount Botton d'Oro! We liked it so much, we dined their twice in three nights!
Everything about Villa Albergo Marta was first class. We will be back; we plan to make it the primary focus of our next visit to Italy!
