Friendliness and helpfulness of all the staff. Very good breakfast. Excellent and quiet location only a short walk to main sights, restaurants and shops.

Location

“This was an exceptional place to stay. All the team were amazing and could not do more for us.”

5 star breakfast stunning presentation, beautiful table decorations and the breakfast team were fantastic and could not have been more lovely. The location of the hotel was perfect for us to discover the historical splendour of Lecce

“Not what we expected, sorry!”

Firstly, Alfonso was exceptional. Very good staff here helped us with an early check in and room with a bath. We really appreciated that as my husband had just come out of intensive care. However, we paid 320 euros for our room - just for one night, and this was definitely not good value for money. The staff try and 'sell' you the happy hour (even though my they knew my husband came out of hospital and unlikely to drink), the breakfast menu had a 3.5 euro charge for fresh orange juice that we noticed after we ordered it. However, to the hotel's credit, they did not charge us for this on check out. When paying 320 euro for one night, I was really surprised to find things like that chargeable! Everything in the room chargeable too. It really felt as though they wanted to sell you everything... The photos had sold the place to me as we had just come from another boutique hotel with a lovely breakfast area on the roof. The photos led me believe that this hotel also had an eating area on the roof - pictures showed tables, chairs and lighting, but when we went up there - nothing. Just a few plain sun loungers, not like the photos. But the most disappointing thing was that we paid less for this hotel than we did the Patria Palace - a 5star leading hotel of the world (where we stayed the following couple of days)! And the facilities at the Patria, breakfast there etc etc far surpassed this boutique hotel and no charge for fresh orange juice! The thing that was positive about this boutique hotel was one member of staff, Alfonso, who couldn't have been kinder and even drove us to the Patria Palace. It makes me feel bad writing this review, but one person does not make up for the fact that the owners dynamic pricing serves to rip off guests who need to book last minute. The rate we paid was exorbitant for what we got, definitely not value for money at 320 euros a night. I would have expected around 160 euro max.

“Wonderful stay at a top-notch hotel with excellent service and impressive suites.”

Given a wonderful welcome upon arrival with a free drink, bags taken to the suite and a tour of the impressive spa facilities. We appreciated the free room upgrade to an even larger suite and the wine and fruit awaiting us. The suite was expansive with a sitting room, a huge bedroom and two bathrooms, and tastefully furnished throughout with quirky furniture. Breakfast choice was wide with cereal, toast, meat, cheese, local delicacies and cakes all well presented. The hotel was quiet due to the absence of traffic and as only half of the rooms were occupied. Excellent service from the staff throughout our stay.

“A lovely hotel well located in the old town of Lecce.”

This is a lovely hotel and the staff are exceptional: very friendly and helpful. It is in the old town, near to all the main attractions. The room we had was large with an outdoor sitting area. The common areas of the hotel are very nicely appointed. The wine and nibbles (free of charge) before going out to dinner is a particularly nice touch. The hotel doesn’t have a restaurant but there are plenty of good ones within an easy walk.

“Exceptionally welcoming and attentive staff”

Great stuff,super location. Valet parking. Beautifully decorated rooms. My favorite hotel in Puglia.

“The best place to stay in Lecce”

Everything! The suite we were given was amazing, the staff were beautiful, the position was perfect on the edge of the old town, the breakfast was brilliant. Anyone staying in Lecce should consider this hotel!

“The location was amazing and the staff were a stand out. They were incredibly helpful with anything we needed”

Amazing location and very attentive staff who went above And beyond

The staff is very friendly, we had everything we needed, the location is great, breakfast is nice, rooms are clean, and everything is very well organised. We received a welcome gift and a local wine, which was very nice. The rooms are quiet and cold, which is awesome when there are over 30 degrees outside. For breakfast, there are multiple options for egg preparation, and the day we were there, they had a nice warm pastry for the dessert :)

“So delightful we didn’t want to leave.”

Absolutely everything. The property was beautifully and sympathetically restored and decorated. The staff were just a delight to interact with, provided us with great dinner recommendations and made bookings for us. The breakfast food and room decore was outstanding. Easily the best I’ve experienced not only on our Italy adventure but in all my and my mothers years of travel. The room was comfortable and beautifully decorated. We really appreciated the thought the staff had put into putting us in the room closest to the breakfast room (without stairs) to help my 80 year old mother easily navigate to and from the room.

“Amazing place to stay in Lecce”

Everything was great. Room was perfect, big and great design. Location is exceptional and Staff was the best. Always friendly and available. Nice breakfast.

It was very good but part of the savery section was in a very dark corner. You couldn't see what there was.

The service was amazing. The accommodation was beautiful and everything was designed to delight. Fantastic location inside old city.

“A stunning hotel with great staff.”

A very warm welcome by the staff who could not do enough to look after our family. The rooms were beautiful and spacious and the breakfast was excellent. It was great for families as our room had a third bed on a mezzanine. The location was very close to the centre of Lecce with all the bars and restaurants a short stroll away. And they took our car away and brought it back whenever we wanted to use it. A perfect stay.

Excellent staff!! Beautiful palace. Wonderful breakfast

“Fantastic. Wonderful staff; gorgeous hotel; brilliant place to stay”

The property was simply fantastic. A wonderful old stone building beautifully and tastefully decorated. Everything about the place was calm and pleasant. It’s also pretty well located to explore the rest of Lecce The hotel staff were simply exceptional. They were kind; friendly; smiley; and happy. They were very engaging and helpful, and remembered who we were; where we were heading for the day - and would chat about it when we got back. Nothing was too much trouble for them I wished we’d stayed longer but 4 days in Lecce was enough

“Lovely family run hotel in the heart of Lecce. Highly recommended”

Fantastic hotel with wonderful staff
