About this property
Elevated above the rhythm of Via Fillungo, Lucca’s liveliest and most iconic street, Apartment Mercanti is an architectural showstopper. Set on the fourth floor with private elevator access, this glamorous three-bedroom apartment places you in the cultural core of the city, just steps from Torre Guinigi, Piazza San Michele, and the Anfiteatro.
Inside, clean architectural lines meet soaring timbered ceilings, soft natural light, and statement Italian design. The apartment’s minimalist palette sets the stage for curated furniture pieces, bespoke lighting, and sleek finishes by renowned brand Antonio Lupi. And while the vibe is contemporary, original wooden beams and terracotta tiles nod to Lucca’s centuries-old charm.
The layout is spacious and sociable, with a stylish open-plan kitchen and dining area flowing seamlessly into the main living space. Whether you’re hosting dinner or enjoying a simple antipasto spread after a day in the city, everything feels effortlessly elevated.
A glass-walled mezzanine floats above the main living space, ideal for quiet reading, cocktails, or simply watching the sunset over the rooftops. From here, you’ll catch glimpses of three of Lucca’s legendary towers: Torre Guinigi, Torre delle Ore, and the Campanile del Mercato.
Three double bedrooms offer restful luxury, with crisp linens, generous storage, and warm wooden floors underfoot. The master suite is a standout, with its own gas fireplace, walk-in wardrobe, and en-suite bathroom that feels more like a private spa. There’s a second full bathroom and an additional guest WC, ideal for groups or families sharing the space.
Apartment Mercanti is equipped for comfort in every season, with air conditioning, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a private elevator that opens directly into the apartment, no need to navigate old staircases after a day exploring. A refined retreat above the buzz of the city, Apartment Mercanti is ideal for travellers seeking high design, unbeatable views, and a truly central Lucca experience.
In the heart of Lucca’s pedestrianised centre, Apartment Mercanti offers a front-row seat to daily life in one of Tuscany’s most beautiful cities. Set along lively Via Fillungo, the apartment sits above a charming stream of boutiques, gelaterias, bookshops, and artisan shops, making it ideal for people-watching and effortless city living.
Everything is within easy walking distance. In just a few minutes you can reach Piazza San Michele, one of Lucca’s most vibrant squares, and the beautiful Chiesa di San Michele in Foro. Head the other way and you’ll arrive at the iconic Piazza dell’Anfiteatro, built on the remains of an ancient Roman amphitheatre and now one of the city’s most photogenic spots.
The famous Guinigi Tower, topped with rooftop oak trees, is visible from the apartment and close enough for a memorable climb and sweeping views across the terracotta rooftops. While the location is wonderfully central, Apartment Mercanti feels calm and private thanks to its elevated position and thick insulation. Set on the fourth floor, it also offers striking rooftop views, particularly from the upper loft area where Lucca’s bell towers dominate the skyline.
Food lovers will appreciate nearby markets, delis, trattorias, and wine bars, while the apartment’s well-equipped kitchen and spacious dining area make home-cooked Tuscan meals tempting. The train station is around a 10-minute walk away, linking you easily to Pisa, Florence, and beyond.
