Sleeping above a nearly 2,000-year-old Roman Amphitheatre and waking up to breathtaking views of Lucca's red rooftops, medieval towers and the rolling Tuscan hills is an experience that very few places in the world can offer. If you're looking to discover Lucca from a truly unique perspective, Caesar's Luxury Penthouse is the perfect choice.
Welcome to Caesar's Luxury Penthouse, an exclusive luxury penthouse located directly above the ancient 1st-century Roman Amphitheatre, one of Lucca's most iconic landmarks. Here, history meets modern comfort in an elegant, bright and beautifully renovated home designed to provide an unforgettable stay for couples, families and groups of friends.
The apartment occupies the fourth and top floor of a historic building. It is reached by climbing approximately 50 steps through a charming staircase built within the original Roman arches. Every step is rewarded with one of the most spectacular panoramic views in Lucca. Two secure entrance gates provide additional privacy and peace of mind throughout your stay.
As soon as you enter, you'll be welcomed by spacious, stylish interiors filled with natural light. The apartment features two bedrooms, a central room with a comfortable double sofa bed, a large living room with a fully equipped open-plan kitchen, a stunning panoramic dining room, a modern bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower, a convenient storage room and a private terrace at the rear of the property.
The true highlight of the apartment is the extraordinary panoramic dining room, surrounded by large windows offering an incredible 270-degree view over the city. From here you can admire Piazza Anfiteatro, the Guinigi Tower, the Clock Tower, Basilica of San Frediano, Basilica of San Francesco, San Pietro Somaldi Church, the bell tower of St. Martin's Cathedral, the rolling hills surrounding Lucca and, on clear days, even the majestic Apuan Alps.
Every moment of the day offers a different atmosphere. Sunrise gently illuminates the city's characteristic red rooftops, sunset paints the skyline with warm golden colours, and in the evening the elegant LED lighting creates a magical setting, perfect for a romantic dinner, an aperitif with friends or simply relaxing while enjoying one of Lucca's most breathtaking views.
At the rear of the apartment you'll also find a lovely private terrace, the perfect place to enjoy breakfast outdoors, read a book or sip a glass of fine Tuscan wine while overlooking Lucca's charming rooftops and medieval towers.
To ensure maximum comfort, Caesar's Luxury Penthouse offers complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning, heating, a 50-inch Smart TV in the living room and a 43-inch TV in the master bedroom.

The location is simply unbeatable.
