Corte dei folletti is just as enchanting as its name suggests: hidden into an unsuspecting building and magic on the inside. The high wooden ceilings are paired with beautiful furniture pieces mostly made of wrought iron and solid wood and the bricks walls are filled with paintings of some of the cutest inhabitants of the fairy worlds hand made by artists. The luminous patio, accessible through the entrance hall, is enclosed amongst the privacy of high walls and features a lovely garden with a fountain. The size of the place makes it just as calm and intimate as a rental apartment but with the extra feature of being cared for by the kind and lively personnel that makes the magic of the hosting arts come true. Corte dei Folletti had me sweet dreams assured.

It was nice and cool. It was charming. We loved the goblin theme and artwork on the walls. The hostess Simona was incredibly helpful and booked a very good restaurant for us. She also pointed us in the direction of a local launderette - which did a stellar job. We enjoyed the walk into Lucca - about 15minutes - it’s better to be here than inside the old walled town - impossible to park or drive easily inside the old town. The breakfast was very good - and there is also a nice cool green garden to the rear of the property- great place :-) !

Nothing

Very nice room with bathtub in a bedroom. Perfect for romantic getaways.

I understand that this is B&B but lack of a person on the reception through the whole day can be problematic. We wanted to order a taxi to the center and taxis company were hanging on us, each time they were hearing english language. We couldn't ask for a help at the reception because nobody was there. But this is just a small remark. Everything was perfect and I highly recommend this place :)

The breakfast was the very best thing we had. It had everything we needed and was very fresh. The young lady working at that hour was lovely. The rooms are ok and we slept very well. Of course the wall features where you see the bricks are awesome. The garden is lovely.

It's a very small building. The stairs are very tight and the breakfast area is small as well. The bathroom was very big but the shower was too small. It was strange to have that much space and not use it in the shower.

The Italian bath in the room was amazing. The room is cosy, with a good mix of stones and wood. The bed is comfortable. The team contacted us to give us the instructions for the check-in. The wifi works well. We really appreciate having a kettle with tea, coffee, cappuccino and biscuits. The small garden is beautiful. We can't hear any noise from the road from our room.

The water for the bath was not very hot.

Great welcome and free coffee on arrival was much appreciated! Very good breakfasts. Excellent staff support and genuine hospitality. Very nice large bathroom and big bath as well. Parking easily available on the street outside. Not far from centre of Lucca, which is a great place to visit. Even got to hear much of the Bob Dylan concert too..

The nymph and goblin paintings were a bit creepy, may not be to everyone's taste. We hid them with drapes from the four-poster!

Stayed for 3 nights and had absolutely beautiful stay. Like being in a fairy tale and delightful to spot each hidden gnome or fairy. Bath was fantastic, especially after alot of walking and cycling. Shower has good pressure and water hot. Bed is memory foam and comfortable, however after a while it depresses alot and not very supportive for larger framed people. Two choices of pillows, which was great. A delicious breakfast is provided each morning including espresso/cappuccino which I loved. Staff were so friendly and so accommodating to needs.

It is a distance from train station if arriving by train, so need to catch taxi and a good 15-20 min walk from Porto Elisha into walled city.

Furniture was truly amazing, even more in person than in the pictures! Big bathroom and the tub in the room is sure a plus, even though I didn't use it. Double bed to sleep in, with those lovely curtains that give a medieval look to the room

Bed and cushions are made of memory foam. Some love it but for me it only made it difficult to sleep, since my body was slowly sinking into the mattress and when I changed position it would keep the previous position shape for a long time...

the place is about 1.5 km from the walls of the inner city. walking is better when going back to the downtown in the evening. parking at the hotel is okay. breakfast nice. the rooms and decoration amazing. we liked it very much.

the rush hour in Lucca caused some problem when trying to get to the hotel. maybe there was an accident, i don't know, but we were blocked for half an hour at the same spot.

Very friendly staff, beautiful location and charming theme for the rooms - the gnomes and fairytale characters. The breakfast was amazing! The staff was very nice, attentive and lovely to chat with. Free parking is available in front of the B&B on both sides of the street so that was comfortable.
