B&B Il Seminario

B&B Il Seminario is a bed and breakfast in San Michele, Lucca, 500 m from the centre, with a furnished garden where breakfast can be served in summer.

Set within Lucca’s historic walls, the B&B pairs a central address with a quieter garden setting. Its rooms have classic-style furnishings, air conditioning, a private bathroom and a flat-screen TV; some face the garden or an inner courtyard, while others have a view or overlook a quiet street. Choices include single, double or twin, triple, quadruple and superior double rooms, with capacities from one to four people.

Breakfast is a Continental buffet with sweet and savoury items, including homemade jams. In summer, it can be served in the furnished garden. A coffee house, snack bar and special-diet menus on request are available, alongside bicycle rental and luggage storage. WiFi is free throughout, while private parking is available on site for a daily charge. Pets are accepted for a nightly charge, with a maximum of two allowed.
