Short description

Our recently-restored 19th century hunting lodge, located at the foot of the renowned Monti Pisani, is only 5 km from the historic town of Lucca.

Take advantage of our privileged position in the tranquil Tuscan countryside, while still within reach of the historic towns. We offer an airport shuttle for your convenience and bicycle rental so you can explore Lucca’s ancient architecture in comfort and style. There are also several in-house activities such as a massage parlour, wine-tasting, cookery and painting lessons.

The magnificent views can be seen from every room, which include an extensive Renaissance garden and swimming pool. All our elegant and warmly decorated rooms are spacious, light and equipped with modern amenities. A number have marvellous frescoed ceilings, infusing our traditionally Italian, grand manor style hotel with a wonderful Tuscan atmosphere.

Our hotel is an ideal base for artists and photographers.

Hotel information

Just five kilometres from Lucca, in the beautiful, sun-drenched Tuscan countryside, an elegant, cream-coloured nineteenth-century villa comes into view as you enter the gate. It stands fairly high on a hill, surrounded by a large garden in the typical Lucca Renaissance style, with two flights of steps leading up to the entrance, from either side. A peaceful atmosphere reigns everywhere, a balm for the soul of any traveller.
The pleasant, relaxing atmosphere that guests at Villa Marta so love, is created mainly by the cordial and attentive hospitality offered by Andrea Martinelli and his wife Alessia, who run the hotel. They personally welcome the guests and see to their every need with friendly efficiency, making them feel as if they are staying in a private home rather than a hotel.

Room information

The villa houses 15 extremely comfortable rooms. 2 are deluxe, and 3 are superior, where guests receive extra pampering. Great attention is given to detail: radiators and air conditioners are painted the same colour as the walls, there is a minibar and a glass bottle of mineral water in every room and hand-made chocolates in the finest Lucca tradition lie on your pillow to wish you sweet dreams. Extra comforts are provided for guests in each room in the form of a desk and 2 armchairs.
