Dolce Sosta is an elegant establishment located a few kilometers from the historic walls of Lucca, immersed in the charm of a typical villa from the 1950s, recently renovated to offer a comfortable and refined stay. This residence is located in a strategic position, ideal for visiting the artistic wonders of Tuscany, from Pisa to Siena to Florence. Furthermore, being part of the famous Via Francigena route, it serves as a welcoming stop for pilgrims embarking on their journey to Rome.

The four rooms of Dolce Sosta are furnished with care and style, highlighting the original exposed stone that tells the story of the villa. Each room is equipped with a private bathroom and Wi-Fi connection, ensuring modern comfort within a traditional context. Here, guests can immerse themselves in a warm and relaxing atmosphere, perfect for those looking to escape from the daily hustle and bustle.

The property stands out not only for its hospitality but also for the opportunity to explore the surrounding area through customized excursions, curated in collaboration with Stefano Cecchi, an expert environmental guide. We offer trekking, bike trips, and other unique experiences that allow visitors to discover the beauty of the Tuscan countryside. Additionally, guests can indulge in food and wine itineraries, participate in cultural events, and visit the numerous museums and exhibition spaces in the area.

Dolce Sosta represents the ideal choice for families seeking a welcoming atmosphere and for couples wishing for a romantic getaway in a private setting, surrounded by nature and tranquility. The establishment is also designed with children in mind, featuring play areas and activities dedicated to kids, making every stay a memorable experience.

The owners, a young couple with extensive experience in the tourism industry, welcome each guest with warmth and passion, eager to share the beauty and culture of this corner of Tuscany. Every morning, guests can enjoy a typical Italian breakfast, prepared with fresh ingredients, to start the day off right and immerse themselves in the magic of a land rich in history and traditions.

Our room was perfect for our needs. We appreciated the yard, gardens and pool. What a nice, relaxing place to rest. Thank you very much, Stefano and Maria.

We loves our stay at this property. Stefano and his family are delightful, rooms are a good size, so we were very comfortable. breakfast was abundant and Stefano’s own honey is the best. We would have bought a box full if Australia allowed us to bring in. Lucca is a beautiful town to visit. Do not hesitate to book this B&B. Thank you very much Stefano.

Very good B&B Dolce Sosta, with a pleasant garden, spacious and well-equipped rooms (hairdryer, fan, tv). Very welcoming owners and ready to help. 3 minutes from the center of Lucca, with easy access from the road (and possibly the bus, which we did not try). Abundant self-service breakfast (pastries, homemade cakes, bread, fruit juices, yogurt). Very beautiful region obviously, with lots of things to see and do.

The property is located on a very quiet street on the outskirts of Lucca and can be reached in 3 minutes by car. The rooms are very comfortable and the property has very convenient parking. Maria was very kind and welcoming. I absolutely recommend it.

Terrible. We made a complete booking, but we received a room with air conditioning and no kitchen. Zero privacy, I let you imagine what privacy there could be in a house inhabited. Dirty pool, yellow water, mosquitoes floating on their bellies. Zero friendliness, instead immediately clarifying that we had removed, but I remember that customers are always right. In this case, we had way too much of the heat that made us stay only with a fan. We will never return again.

The managers are kind and helpful, the location is convenient for all services and the city center, but unfortunately, the room we were assigned was small, with an even smaller bathroom and no windows. The worst part is that it was NOT equipped with air conditioning, which I find unthinkable. With small adjustments, it could be greatly improved. I suggest maybe increasing the nightly rate but installing air conditioning and including breakfast in the price.

Bnb in a strategic location to visit Lucca and its surroundings while staying in a quiet area. Spacious and clean rooms. Equipped with free internal parking. Very kind and helpful staff. Within a few minutes' walk, there are pizzerias, restaurants, and a bar. Highly recommended.

Cozy and clean room, attentive and very kind hosts. The only tiny observation is that the TV in the room should be bigger. I repeat, it is a nearly invisible flaw in the overall positive experience.

Excellent little house located in a quiet position on a low traffic road, near the walls of Lucca which can be reached by bicycle in a few minutes. Large, comfortable and clean room. Friendly and helpful manager, breakfast on request but always plentiful. Pleasant and relaxing experience.

The room at my disposal was beautiful and spacious, the staff was very friendly, kind, and helpful. We did not take advantage of the breakfast, but from what I heard from other guests, it seemed excellent. Very close to a bar/pizzeria and to the bus stop to get to the center in no time. The private parking lots were also excellent, convenient and safe. I highly recommend this place, even for those who wish for a bit of relaxation without the chaos of the busy center.

A well-kept structure with love, although it would be advisable to improve the breakfast offering by including yogurt and butter, in addition to only one jam. It was probably just an oversight.

A small oasis a stone's throw from the center of Lucca. We stayed during the fair, and we had a great time. A quiet, peaceful place, surrounded by greenery and far from the city chaos: the ideal place for those who want to enjoy a relaxing stay.

Great bed and breakfast. Impeccable cleanliness and comfort. The rooms are very spacious with an equally spacious bathroom. The availability and kindness of the young couple managing the structure are exceptional. Located a bit outside Lucca in a quiet area, but we easily moved to reach the city center where we had to attend a concert during the Lucca Summer Festival. Even on the day of departure, needing to leave at 6:00, Stefano (owner of the B&B together with his wife Maria) woke up to prepare us breakfast, exceptional. I highly recommend La Dolce Sosta to those who want to stay in Lucca and surroundings.
