Situated in a privileged location within easy reach of the central railway station, Chic Stay Boutique Apartments is a convenient starting point for visiting the main cities and attractions of Tuscany.

Lucca is one of the most popular destinations for travellers because of its high historical and artistic value and is considered a city of art and a jewel of Tuscan architecture. The historical centre is delimited by a 4 km long city wall built in the 15th century and still preserved in a splendid condition. The walls can be crossed on foot or by bicycle and offer city’s views of incredible beauty. The symbolic square of Lucca, considered one of the most beautiful in Italy, is Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, built on the remains of the ancient Roman amphitheatre that determine its unique elliptical shape.

Pisa and its famous Piazza dei Miracoli, known worldwide for the Leaning Tower and declared a World Heritage Site, as well as Piazza dei Cavalieri and the ancient historical buildings around it, are a destination not to be missed during a stay in Tuscany. The charming promenades and the typical restaurants and clubs along the Lungarno, where you can spend pleasant moments, make Pisa a jewel worth exploring.

Siena, in the heart of Tuscany, is one of the best-known medieval cities in Italy. Its precious historic centre is in fact a World Heritage Site: the famous shell-shaped Piazza del Campo, the site of one of the city's most beloved and heartfelt events (the famous Palio di Siena), its Renaissance palaces, alleys and peculiar neighbourhoods, constitute a historical, artistic and landscape heritage of inestimable value.

Other small villages in the Sienese area attract the fascination of the tourists for their beauty and historical value: San Gimignano, Montepulciano and Monteriggioni.
