Hotel Villa San Michele
Villa San Michele, the sister hotel of Hotel Villa Marta has just been recently renovated. This is an exclusive hotel immersed in the green hills of the Tuscan countryside, among centuries-old olive groves and precious vineyards, a few minutes-drive from Lucca. It owes its name to the village of San Michele in Escheto where it is located and to the small Romanesque church of S. Michele Arcangelo, bordering the property.
Villa San Michele, once a stately home, is the typical example of late 15th century architecture, consisting of 3 floors and surrounded by a characteristic stone wall. The north façade still retains the original Romanesque arches.
From the external entrance, characterized by an ancient stone arch with the coat of arms of the dwelling, you can directly access the ancient reception hall that houses the reception and the bar, with the typical vaulted ceiling elegantly frescoed, supported by columns that form pointed arches. Also on the ground floor there is the restaurant (also completely frescoed) and in the basement a large cellar, where numerous bottles of fine vintage wines are kept.
