Hotels with Swim-up Rooms in Lecce

We were upgraded to a private pool with a complete spa room; amazing experience!!! The location is excellent and the room is actually an apartment, everything you need is available as complementary

We loved absolutely everything 😍! we stayed in the suite with a private pool, sauna & steam room, quite simply beautiful and total luxury. Nothing is missing… candles, Prosecco, a Bluetooth speaker for your music in an amazing setting. The owner Francesco and his assistant are charming and go out of their way to make your stay quite simply dreamy.

The private spa room is incredible. It’s a real treat to have such beautiful , luxury facilities (pool, sauna, steam room) all to your self, including complimentary bottle of fizz. The apartment has a small well equipped kitchen a 2 lovely bathrooms. Luca was friendly and helpful. The location was great. We had an amazing stay. Thanks so much!

We had a little problem the first night as we were in a room with the bed up a flight of stairs in a loft. I would never have taken a room with a split level like that and told the manager, Luca. He immediately put us it the luxurious Spa room where we had private access to the entire spa---it was in our room. It was completely indulgent and wonderful and they (manager and owner) were so generous and helpful. This review reflects the Spa room which was fantastic!! The place was also perfectly and conveniently located to the Centro---old town.

Stayed in room 2, very comfortable and quite spacious. Kinda quirky layout with one bedroom and two bathrooms but we loved it! It’s a kind of serviced appartment, so no onsite hotel services apart from breakfast which was fine for us. Parking is on the streets nearby, 60 cents per hour with 9pm to 9am free, get the app and you can sort easily, free on Sundays. It’s a five mins walk to enter the wonderful old town. TV with streaming was all good, wifi too. Loved our stay here, would stay again.

This hotel is truly magnificent. Very understated and classical. Provides a fabulous break from the hot Puglian sun. The room is elegant with all mod cons to hand. If the wifi isn't strong enough, they provide you with a separate router. Staff are exceptional, not invasive or having that fake American 'happy to see you' annoyance where they want tips. Staff always will to help whether it be for excursions or to where to stop for a drink in town. Breakfast is a delicious selection of hot and cold foods, with lots of local fruits and cheeses to select from, as well as your usual eggs and the best crispy bacon you will ever have the pleasure of eating. Located only a brief stroll into the old town centre (<5 min walk), hence conveniently located for all the tourist sites. The hotel swimming pool is set amongst beautifully aged olive groves. Provides an absolute haven when you have been out in the sun all day. Also, can't forget to mention the hotel's dog which tends to visit in the afternoon for his pats and a play. By far one of the leading hotels in the world.

This is a spectacular place. The perfect base to visit all of Puglia. The hotel is splendid, with grounds that live up to the "urban resort" label--pool, grove of orange trees for shade, patios with comfortable chairs, on and on. Each room has a small deck area, but the entire outdoors and indoors of the place are open. The staff is outstanding--warm, welcoming, eager to make your visit a pleasure. The cuisine is fabulous. Not traditional Italian, but rather modern, creative and delicious fare produced by a star chef. The site is on the edge of the old town, 10 minutes from anywhere in central Lecce by foot and, with its private parking, and easy place from which to drive out of town to visit the rest of the region. Lecce itself is beautifully Baroque, with lovely churches, fine restaurants, Roman ruins, lovely people...I could go on. This is a really unique experience worth every penny. And consider going in the off season, when the weather is best and the crowds thinnest.

A special hotel. Fairly new. Service and food were excellent. The room (deluxe) was spacious with modern electronics. An impressive attention to details such as high quality bath products. although located in the old city center, it's spacious. Entering the hotel gives a feeling of peace and tranquility. The grounds seem spacious with a nice pool area. There is an attention to style and design that manifests itself not only in the construction and decor but in every detail. A great experience. I wouldn't consider staying anywhere else in Lecce.

This delightful hotel is set in a lovely private garden with green grass, lemon and olive trees. There are seating areas outside by the pool where you can relax or have a snack. The staff are extremely attentive and genuinely want you to enjoy your stay. The rooms are well appointed and the bed is extremely comfortable. The hotel chef should be congratulated on providing the best hotel breakfast with homemade pastries and delicious home baked bread. It is one of the best breakfasts I have enjoyed anywhere.

A beautiful hotel set in lovely gardens with a pool and olive and citrus trees. The hotel is contemporary but based on a traditional building of the locality and very harmonious, with every facility and comfort catered for. The staff are all friendly and welcoming and very helpful and the atmosphere is calming and peaceful.

It is just amazing! Interior of the accommodation is very beautifully arranged, with authentic interior, restored monastery. Super clean. We were in Venere apartment where we had our own kitchen, dining room, bathroom, huge bedroom, private terrace and balcony. The air conditioning is working perfectly, although outside was very hot - we enjoyed great temperatures inside. Breakfast is tasty - Italian style: croissant and local pastries. But you can also bring your own since they have a kitchen, if you prefer something else too. So I would recommend this B&B with all of my heart. Also the staff was friendly and always willing to help us. <3 :)

Wow. This place is absolutely stunning. A noble 16th century house beautifully renovated and turned into a fabulous, comfortable space. We were there for work but it would make a perfect romantic getaway, especially the room with the spa bath. The presentation is excellent, with a very friendly host and a lovely Italian breakfast. Great heating, great WiFi, great hot showers. Lovely location just round the corner from the beautiful piazza. The kind of property where you look back at others you gave a 10 and wish you could call this a 12.

The room, the balcony, the town of San Cesario di Lecce. Lucia is an excellent host, very kind and generous. The whole stay was very enjoyable, for the second time. San Cesario is a quite town very close to Lecce with central location in Salento. The closest beach is 20 minutes way, and a variety of other beaches and towns within 30-45 minutes drive. La Dimora delle Grazie is an excellent bed and breakfast right in the centre of town. A traditional building that is very well kept and modernised.

Its a special place, very confortable, in a historic building surrounded by other historic buildings. It seems you're sleeping in a castle, but with all the confort. You have everithing you need. They leave you hot coffee and warm pastry in the morning. There are plenty options to park the car and the center of Lecce is only 5 minuts driving.There's a beautiful terrace where you can get sun or simply relax. It's really a differentiated service.

The breakfast lovely, substantial and beautifully presented everyday. The apartment was beautiful with all the amenities and facilities where well appointed. The garden terrace was attractive and inviting. Location was perfect if you have a car and like to be just on the outer edge of Lecce which was easily accessible. San Cesare Lecce had a very quaint appeal. Coffee at Caffetteria Patarnello who provided the breakfast was one of the best we tried. Lucia is a gem and very helpful.

A very clean and spacious accommodation! The hosts even introduced us to local snacks, the communication went well and they were very hospitable. A short drive to the city centre, with a supermarket and bakery in walking distance. We could use the pool in the morning primarily, but we were able to swim in the afternoon when we asked. We enjoyed having our breakfasts on the terrace, and would recommend this accommodation for future visits. Thank you Francesco and Petra!

The villa was amazing - with four great sized bedrooms, a fantastic veranda and access to a beautiful pool area. The host, Francisco, was contactable for any questions during the stay and was really friendly. A great location for exploring Lecce from, with local restaurants nearby or a 15 minute walk into Lecce, or 20-30 minutes to the beautiful old town. A villa near the centre of town, but in a really quiet location.

The pool, the rooms and the amazing shower rooms! Francesco is really nice and we had an amazing stay, the facilities are definitely great to chill after a busy day.

The accommodation is beyond amazing! This is executive-level accommodation - Huge, spacious, modern, high-quality, classy, and comfortable. A big mention must go to the host, Petra, and her husband. They communicated in advance, were ready for our arrival, and were on hand throughout for advice and recommendations. They also own a fish restaurant and strongly advise you to visit. It was magnificent and I wish we had visited more. 10/10 for everything. Not only that they also allowed us to stay later in the apt as our flights were at 9 pm and there is parking behind the electric gate. They are perfect, generous hosts.

Beautiful modern property on the outskirts of Lecce. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. Decorated to a very high standard and wonderfully comfortable beds. Bathroom facilities first class, the owners have obviously put a lot of care and thought in to this apartment. Met on arrival by Petra, despite the fact we were late as our flight was delayed. Warm friendly welcome, she took time to show us round and make sure we had everything we needed, including a bottle of wine. Great communication throughout the stay, always happy to provide advice if we needed it.

La Dimora dei Gelsi is a beautiful house for family holidays. The swimming pool is perfect and the garden large and relaxing.

Quiet location. Beautiful garden and pool - excellent for children to explore. Very accessible for exploring the area. Very comfortable bedrooms.

So much space and a beautiful place. Everything was perfect! Owner is very friendly!

La villa est fantastique c’est un bel havre de paix arbore et sa localisation est parfaite pour decouvrir les plages du salento et les villes comme lecce ou brindisi La piscine est grande et parfaite pour les adultes comme les enfants Arnoldo est un hôte pleins d’attentions et tres serviable

Even better than in the photos. Big size (from the photos i thought it's twice smaller and I was wonder how can 4 people can fit there). Kitchen was amazing equipped - toaster, juicer, big spacer where whole family can cook and eat together. The equipment and garden (furnitures, amenities) well maintained and of high quality, the pool was super clean (the leanest I've ever seen). The garden is big and comfy, lemon trees are there and every day we made fresh lemonade :) The property is home to two or three cats which is extra bonus for the children. The host was also very responsive and answered all the questions we had during our stay (Easter time).

The apartment was very private and secure. We were warmly welcomed and shown around. The swimming pool and area around it were lovely. Complete kitchen. We really enjoyed ourselves. Just 5km from Lecce old town. Yet you felt like you were in the countryside.

The location was a little further out of the city than I first thought and we hadn’t hired a Car to be able to get around and explore the area. It was a lovely quiet spot and we managed to use the bikes and cycle to the supermarket even though I’ve not rode a bike since I was a child. The Pool, Table Tennis Table and Table Football are all a lovely addition along with the outside showers and toilet which are maintained to a high standard. We didn’t use the outside kitchen area with BBQ but it too was clean and kitted out with everything you would need for a family meal outside. The whole Villa was clean and modern and the day bed for watching Netflix was a comforting addition as some of the other places we stayed had the TV in the bedroom. Even though we were in a secluded spot which was a 10 minute drive from the centre we were able to order a Takeaway as there are a few delivery apps that work including Deliveroo and Just Eat. The host went above and beyond to help and provide us with information including booking taxi’s or letting us know what buses we could catch.

Great garden with pool and additional BBQ kitchen, and delicious fruits growing in. Very spacious and comfortable flat with a well set kitchen. Staff is super helpful. Parking space in front of the property is perfect, property is 15 min from lecce center by car and 2 minutes away from the motorway... making it a great stay to circle around Salento.

Beautiful property, well appointed apartment. Tastefully decorated with private terrace. Great communal area and lovely pool and gardens. Owners were always polite, approachable and nothing was ever too much trouble. Would recommend this property and will return again without hesitation.

I was upgraded to the villa for 2 nights of the 3. The villa was fabulous and would score a 9 at least. The grounds the villa stood in were lovely. My apartment in the villa grounds on the last night was by the pool, small and poorly furnished. I used some of the poolside furniture to supplement its inadequacies.

We liked everything, we were a Family of 12 and stayed in both Villas. The Villas, the Pool and the Grounds were amazing. Someone was always on hand if we wanted anything. We felt very safe and very comfortable.

A beautiful estate with pool and a beautiful apartment. Clean and comfortable. The host was very helpful and friendly. I would love to go back Food store and bus to town closed by.

Pool great. Gardens beautiful. Good indoor space. Loved the dogs! Great communication and help from our hosts. Very friendly. Handy supermarket next door.

Beautiful house and pool, very spacious and pretty. The hosts were unbelievably helpful and accommodating. 100% recommend.

Everything. Vanessa and her family were so helpful. The accommodation was beautiful as is the plunge pool courtyard. Breakfast was delicious with Lecce pastries every morning. The accomodation is right beside the old town so a perfect location. We were sorry to leave.

Great location 👌 5 mins from the Porto Rudiad, little plunge pool was super for cooling off after a long day of sightseeing, pasta making lessons and days at the beach ⛱️

This is a charming little oasis of calm in the beautiful city of Lecce, right beside the Porta Rudaie entrance to the historical centre. Thanks to extremely prompt, efficient and very helpful communications from our host Vanesa, checking in was easy, with plentiful free parking right outside. All queries during our stay were also answered quickly, with excellent restaurant recommendations thank you! Self service breakfast was great and the room was very clean. The cleaning staff were very friendly too! The little plunge pool for the 2 rooms , with towels provided,was very welcome on with the heat of the city and after our day trips. Ideal location for both a city break in Lecce, and for driving out to visit the rest of this part of Puglia.

This is a true gem. Vanesa has created an oasis in Lecce. The space is beautiful, airy, and thoughtfully decorated with natural materials. It is not cookie-cutter, Vanesa has clearly put so much love and thought into her space. More importantly, we loved staying with and getting to know Vanesa and her daughter. We were greeted with so much warmth, we quickly felt at home. Between the proximity to the old city, great restaurants, the comfortable bed and luxurious shower, the pool to cool off in, and the sweet chats with Vanessa and her daughter, we loved every minute of our stay and even ended up staying one extra night. We hope we can come back soon!

Easy to find Convenient for discovering Lecce and within walking distance of train station. Vanessa was really friendly and made you feel very comfortable in her b and b. Lovely room, fantastic shower, lovely splash pool and a seating area outside for each of her rooms. Stay on a Saturday night and you will get lovely pancakes for breakfast ! We arranged an earlier check in and our room was ready. Otherwise we would have been able to leave our luggage. Thanks to Vanessa for making our stay in Lecce memorable.

Någon kilometer från Adriatiska havets kust, utanför Lecce, ligger den vackra Agriturismo Al Parco. Som namnet antyder är hotellanläggningen precis i utkanten av en stor park, Parco naturale regionale Bosco e Paludi di Rauccio, som sedan 15 år tillbaka är en nationalpark, tack vare Världsnaturfondens enträgna arbete. Fem av mina semesterdagar i september tillbringade jag på denna vackra och välskötta hotellanläggning som är en före detta bondgård. Vid ankomsten möttes jag av det ytterst vänliga och hjälpsamma ägarparet som jag kunde vända mig till i frågor, stora som små. Eftersom jag förlagt min semester till lågsäsong fanns det ingen risk för att andra gäster skulle ha reserverat solstolarna vid swimmingpoolen i bittida morgontimma - jag var enda gästen till frukost och såg inte till andra hotellgäster under min vistelse. Perfekt eftersom jag inte gillar väntan, köer och trängsel under semestern! Frukosten var mycket god och bestod av varierat utbud, och mina särskilda kostönskemål tillgodosågs på ett utmärkt sätt. Hotellrummets air condition svalkade oklanderligt. Sedan bestod mina dagar av att cykla runt nationalparken med hyrcykeln från Lecce. I badorterna Spiaggiabella och Torre Chianca tillbringade jag sköna timmar på solstolen eller i baren. OK, lite fyllecykling blev det... Middagarna på Agriturismo Al Parco var utsökta - med utsökta lokala viner i glaset. Jag kan enbart lovorda hotellet och dess vänliga, omsorgsfulla ägare. Apulien har mycket värme & sol att ge!

C’est un B&B excellent. À conseiller. Accès très facile, propriétaires très gentils et accueillants. Très bon pdj avec des spécialités de la maison. Un petit pb : notre climatisation était en panne ( mais nous avons survécus)

Patria Palace was genuinely one of my favourite hotels i've ever stayed in. The staff were fantastic, friendly, helpful and welcoming at all times. The room was lovely and we paid for a terrace room and ended up out there a lot! It was very cosy and had a great view of the Basilica de Santa Cross, which the rooftop bar just down the corridor also had. There was a free shuttle bus to their sister beach club which was a nice touch and a great change of scenery (even if the food we had there wasn't the best meal we had) - we were given complimentary beds and towels again which was just a nice touch and the actual beach club itself was lovely with a sandy beach. On the subject of food, the breakfast was fantastic with a great selection. We didn't have lunch or dinner in the hotel but i'm sure these both would have been great if the breakfast was anything to go by. The location of the hotel is also amazing as it's right slap bang in the centre of the city, there was so many lovely restaurants and bars not even a 5 minute walk away from the hotel, and the city was buzzing at night. Also, Solomun and Black Coffee stayed there while we were there, if you are into music.

This is without doubt one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in, as we checked in we were welcomed with a nice glass of Prosseco. We were taken to our room and everything was explained to us so we knew exactly where everything thing was and how it worked. The room is well appointed with everything you need. The glass bottles of water were replaced twice a day and your room is turned down each evening. The staff at this place (and there are many) are just so friendly, everyone is so welcoming, curteous and always attentive. The place is spotless and the staff work on keeping it that way. The breakfast is partly buffet with special orders placed from a menu, they even have a violinist playing while you have your breakfast. We were offered a a beach day where the hotel takes up to seven people to a private beach club, where we were given towels, water and taken to our sun lounges with shade to spend 3 wonderful hours at this beautiful beach, they then picked us up for the hotel return. I cannot express enough the friendliness and respect of all the staff towards the guests, this hotel was a highlight of our stay in Puglia.

We recently stayed at the Patria Palace Hotel in Lecce, Puglia, and had an overall excellent experience. The location is central to the old town, making it perfect for exploring the charming streets and historical sites. The staff were welcoming and helpful, providing the level of service you would expect from a 5-star hotel. Their attentiveness made our stay even more enjoyable. One of the highlights was the rooftop restaurant and bar area. The setting was magical, and the food, drinks, and service were all top-notch, perfectly complementing the stunning location. Our room was well-equipped and beautifully decorated. However, one downside was that our room (103) only had an internal view, which was a bit disappointing. Breakfast was fantastic, with the option to dine indoors or outdoors. However, we found it odd that there was an additional charge of €15 for certain items at breakfast, such as Eggs Benedict. This seemed inexplicable, especially since you could order poached eggs and bacon on sourdough bread at no extra charge, making the hollandaise sauce effectively cost €15. Despite these minor issues, our stay at Patria Palace Hotel was excellent overall. We highly recommend it for anyone looking to experience the beauty and charm of Lecce in a luxurious setting.

Patria Palace will always hold a special place in our hearts. We had our wedding welcome party on the rooftop here two years ago, so returning this August felt extra meaningful. From the moment we arrived, the staff remembered us — a small but touching detail that shows just how thoughtful and welcoming they are. The hotel itself is stunning: perfectly located in the heart of Lecce, with a spectacular rooftop, beautiful rooms, and an atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. It’s a place we will always want to return to, hopefully every year. A heartfelt thank you to Matteo, Elisa, and Simona, along with the entire team — from the door staff and concierge, to housekeeping, the breakfast team, and the rooftop bar staff. Every single person made our stay truly special. A great touch is a free shuttle to and from their affiliated beach club which includes free access, towels and bottle of water. Patria Palace is more than just a hotel for us — it’s become part of our story.

Wow! Patria Palace is such an amazing hotel. The building and rooms are gorgeous, but what truly made the experience is the staff. They are absolutely wonderful and so very attentive. I wish I could remember everyone's names, but I do remember Asia who helped me when I first checked in. Such a sweet and very knowledgeable staff member. My Italian is lacking to say the least, but their whole team speaks impeccable English. Daily breakfast was gorgeous and delicious. As well, when I was there, during breakfast there was either a violinist or harpist playing. This added so nicely to the exquisite ambiance. I never made it to dinner, but the menu was very inviting. I was able to have cocktails in their beautiful bar, which felt like being in the film, Casablanca. The bartenders were impressive and the stuzzichini were delicious. I do hope to have the chance to return to Patria Palace. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.

This is a beautiful modern hotel with excellent staff. The main problem we had was the 20 minute walk to the old town. A pool would be a useful compensation. The Negroamaro restaurant is excellent and reasonably priced. The taxi to the airport was punctual and spotless.

Clean and friendly..all thats missing is a pool

Overall our stay was outstanding! The staff was very friendly, outgoing and helpful. The hotel itself is very clean and modern, if a little quirky. The high tech part of the experience is cool, but a little confusing at times. We were given one room key so when I (the male half) when down for breakfast with the key, the room was without lights and my Wife couldn’t use the hairdryer. Not sure if another key would have resolved that issue as we only stayed two nights. The breakfast buffet is top notch with a solid offering of a wide array of food. The restaurant dinner was very good as well, but we did find the portions a little small. It is a bit out of the way, but we like to walk so it suited our needs to a tee. Would definitely stay again, and would recommend to anyone looking for a modern place to stay in Lecce!

Just on the outskirts of the old city center. It is the most modern hotel I have ever been too and was not just comfortable but also very spacious. Anyone who wants to have an FOB for the beaches(Lecce is 30 min drive from the beaches east or west), this is a possibility as it is right by gas stations and supermarkets to refill essentials. There is a shaded avenue to walk to the city center but we took a taxi every-time as my wife was heavily pregnant (taxi to anywhere in the city from the hotel was always 15 euros). Parking is free which is important as one cannot drive i to the old town without a permit and it is a gated spacy parking so one should not worry about the bad parking jobs from others.

Se l'albergo avesse avuto una piscina e/o spa sarebbe stato a 5 stelle! Materasso con memory foam comodissimo. La possibilità di scegliersi il cuscino appropriato ci è sembrato un plus. Abbiamo trovato la luce di cortesia nel bagno un'idea straordinaria. L'hotel ha 8 anni ma la stanza sembrava nuova di zecca. Le donne delle pulizie non le abbiamo neppure sentite e credo che sia importante quando si cerca un po' di riposo in silenzio. Lo staff gentile e professionale. Colazione abbondante e raffinata. Trovare poi nel frigobar 2 bottiglie d'acqua gentilmente offerte, fa sempre piacere soprattutto con questo caldo. Per noi l'labergo doveva chiamarsi 10più! Grazie e a presto.

The breakfast buffets were wonderful--very generous in choices, and surprisingly included scrambled eggs to order. Those eggs were probably the best I ever had at a hotel breakfast! We enjoyed the fresh fruits, the pastries and bread, the ham and prosciutto, and the cappuccinos and pots of tea. The waitress from Romania couldn't have been nicer. The dining room itself is lovely. The room was so very comfortable. The bathroom was gorgeous and included the largest hotel tub we have ever seen. We appreciated that staff honored our request for a quiet room by giving us a top floor room on a back courtyard to avoid street noise. The valet parking worked out so well for us. We appreciated Stefano's efficiency and cheerfulness. The front desk staff were always helpful, especially with directions for exiting and entering the historic district. I appreciated that they tolerated my grammatically incorrect Italian and didn't automatically switch to English!

The honest review. I travel a lot in my job, top hotels, but this was a family trip. Great but first….. Start with a problem (people want honesty here) We had an issue with one of our 3 rooms, just a technical, the unexpected can occur. We got a new upgraded room, instant help to move. The manager met me in the morning and everything was resolved, 5 star solution. Top service. The hotel, location tops, center of everything! Rooms super clean, ours fully modern, roof top is fantastic and the staff up there, again, charming and attentive, same with staff at the very nice breakfast, great outdoor option to eat as well. Parking takes time, 15-20 minutes, but you are in the center of the old town, with no parking so it’s to be expected. Plan, easy as that. Summary, people here add to what is a great hotel. Stay here when in Lecce.

I highly recommend Risorgimento Resort for anyone staying in Lecce. It is a perfect location in the heart of old town Lecce, and also an excellent hub from which to explore the surrounding towns and coast as well. Our room and the entire hotel were very clean, comfortable, well maintained, stocked with any amenities we could want or need and the staff was all very friendly and helpful. They were all extremely kind to our 2yr old daughter as well. Their breakfast was complete with extensive options. They have an excellent car valet service that was very convenient. The roof top terrace is also lovely, as I had read from others’ reviews. We loved our stay and highly recommend this resort to others visiting this area of Puglia.

Stayed for 6 nights in Presidential Suite . Lovely big bedroom / bed and fantastic lounge with huge TV. Terrace is fantastic to sit out on watching Lecce go by ! Super coffee machine . Ceilings are wonderfully high / so perfect. Bathroom decent with Jack and Jill sinks . Shower cubicle is quite small though . Hotel breakfasts are plentiful and very good quality with choice to eat outside if wanted. Reception staff very helpful and polite - hotel has a very relaxed calm feel. Location is fantastic for visiting by foot everything Lecce has to offer . Ate at rooftop restaurant 1 evening which was outstanding . Hotel organised our transfers to and from Brindisi airport which worked fine. Great base for us with our organised trips around Puglia.

Risorgimento Hotel is located right in the heart of Lecce, and the location couldn’t be better. Even though it’s within the ZTL (limited traffic zone), it’s still easily accessible by car. The hotel handles the license plate registration with the authorities, so you can drive in without any issues. There’s also a convenient valet parking service available. The room was very spacious, and the beds were incredibly large and comfortable. The staff was genuinely friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. Although the price is on the higher side, the overall comfort and quality of service make it absolutely worth it

Beautiful historic building, which has been brought up to date and provides an excellent service. Excellent restaurant. Staff on front desk, at breakfast and in the restaurant gave superb service and really made us feel special. Nice pool area. The cental courtyard is a beautiful space used for events, but is set up for guests to use with seating and tables- was a bit hot for us to sit out in the July heat. Free shuttle to and from historic centre of Lecce each day which can be pre booked. Breakfast selection was excellent and staff in the breakfast area were friendly and attentive. We dined in the restaurant twice and thoroughly enjoyed what was on offer, cuisine was adventurous and staff were passionate about what they were serving. Rooms are spacious and well appointed. Good bathroom. Good air conditioning which made us very comfortable even in the heat of July (38-39°C). Parking options available nearby

It was like in a fairy tale. Sceptic but it was better than expected. They need more, better and more talkative photos on the beauty inside. Outside beautiful stylish pool, South Italian heat, many hundred years old scoarching sun drenched cloister walls telling stories on the past, Mediterranean flora and fauna, inside pleasant, cool, air-conditioned air filled up with luxury Culti Milano scent, large spaces, freskoes, corners and spots of fine furniture both antique looking or modern and stylish. Mystical crypt/chapel the location of old miracles. Matresses and bedding is high quality too, far the best in hotels. I loved the mini Culti Milano bathroom stuff like shower gel. Room furniture was pretty, well made, and like new. Cleaning was during the breakfast so we were never disturbed. Receptionists were very kind and helpful.

Beautiful restored monastery everything was to a high standard.Rooms were large with a huge bathroom with toiletries included.The room had a kettle with tea and coffee.The swimming pool was beautiful set in the garden.All the staff were exceptional especially Alessandro in the restaurant.We had a beautiful tasting menu …amazing.The photos on the website do not do it justice…

Beautiful property, large rooms, lovely swimming pool and extremely friendly and helpfull staff. As hotel is a bit far from city center, hotel provides free shuttle bus service that you can use. Had a very lovely stay here, choose this hotel with no doubts!

Beautiful monastery turned into a hotel. Loved the breakfast space and the breakfast and the pool area. One of the best breakfasts we had during our stay. The staff was also lovely. Walking distance to the center of Lecce.

We booked the hotel based on wanting access to a pool for our children to enjoy some downtime en route from Italy to UK. The pool is advertised as open from June but was closed when we arrived. There is a children's play room but it is aimed at very young children (age 1-3). We had dinner in the restaurant where service was painfully slow, it took an hour for our order to be taken but the food was delicious when it finally arrived although slightly over priced. Breakfast was fantastic, self service buffet and worth the price - the pastries are delicious! Reception were lovely and polite, tried their best to converse in English when we arrived It was raining and cloudy when we stayed so the two selling points to why we paid the extra were disappointingly wasted for us - no views of Mont Blanc and no access to the swimming pool. We would stay again in the middle of Summer but not for the charged price for a standard hotel stay at other times

Stayed here as part of a Road Scholars tour of Puglia. Our room was extremely spacious and comfortable. The breakfast buffet was extensive and tasty. There's no restaurant on the premises, but we had a sandwich and salad from the snack bar, which was a fine supper after a big Italian lunch. Another night, we had a delicious dinner at the La Bella 'mbriana | Ristorante Pizzeria, very close by. The hotel grounds are spacious, but no swimming pool or other amenities. Only drawback is that it's a short drive to the heart of beautiful, historic Lecce.

Spacious, lovely room equipped with everything one could require. The breakfast room was lovely too and offered a super buffet. I walked downtown as I love walking and photographing. I was informed about AirSpace which offered an excellent transfer from the airport very late at night. I was pleased to see my name on a paper as soon as I exited from Security and Customs and to be driven to the hotel on a shared basis at a fraction of the cost of the hotel shuttle. Had I arrived earlier I could have taken a local bus for a nominal cost. When I forgot my journal at a local shop the hotel driver retrieved it for me free of charge.

This hotel is as close to perfect as it can get. Modern, very clean, quiet, comfortable, with staff that tend to your every need and very helpful in providing information about the surrounding area, plus anything else you might need. The parking lot is right outside the building with lots of room. The location is not central, but a short drive to Lecce. The breakfast is wonderful with a large selection of foods, juices, fruits, breads.... There isn't anything that we didn't like about this place.

Perfecte kamer. Stil, ruime badkamer, mooie douche, .... Goed ontbijtbuffet. Spijtig dat de 2de morgend dat we er waren er maar 1 persoon voor het ontbijt kwam zorgen. En die man kreeg het werkt niet gedaan. En dus, bvb geen fruitsap meer, de eiere waren ook op (maar werden dan nadien toch nog eens aangevuld). Koffie moest je vragen, maar die man had zoveel werk dat je uit compassie met hem toch maar niets vroeg. Echt een schoonheidsfout, de eerste morgend verliep alles wel goed, dankzij 2 diensters.

This is a beautiful hotel. It is an old 15th century fort & you can go into the tower & look at the original frescoes. The public areas are amazing, with a beautiful central courtyard with huge palm trees in it.The décor is tasteful throughout, with great attention to detail. We had one of the more basic rooms, but it was beautiful. It was up a set of stairs from the courtyard and there were only 2 rooms in this area, with a lovely terrace just outside which became our own private outdoor space as the occupants of the other room were mostly out.The room had the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in, & a lovely bathroom. The hotel does a lot of functions & there was a wedding or party pretty much every night we were there. It was lovely to see the wedding parties, & more than once, when we arrived back from dinner late at night, we were given a glass of wine & even desert by the revellers or staff. Despite our room overlooking the courtyard where the parties were, there was no noise due to excellent double glazed windows (which we didn't need to leave open at night due to very efficient air conditioning in the room). The staff were super friendly, giving us recommendations for local restaurants (try DaMarios, just around the corner). I must make special mention of Vinay, who was really friendly, helpful & attentive to our needs, & also to the lady who served breakfast (didn't get her name) who was lovely. Breakfast was super-yummy. And fab massage in the hotel spa!

Right from my arrival everything was absolutely amazing. We got upgraded to a much nicer room on the top floor. It was such a nice experience to be staying in such a great place . The receptionist, I believe her name was Marietta but I could make a mistake (sorry) can't remember, she was so unbelievably helpful and recommended restaurants neer by. Great view from the terrace and the tower. Unbelievable gardens especially at night time . The breakfast was very good with 4 different choices from 4 different parts of the country or the Greek one. It was delicious. Our Lady that served us breakfast was so lovely and warm. It was a truly wonderful time . Thank you all for such a wonderful time. I wished I stayed much longer than just one night . For sure I will be back in the future.

A wide variety of breakfast options to choose from. The bed was very comfortable (and big!). The hotel/castle is out of the town centre but not more than a 7 minute walk. Despite a 3 hour train delay the staff went out of their way to make my one (splurge) night as best they could. A night warden checked me in after I contacted their team via email and WhatsApp. They provided me with a taxi number as the train arrived very late and helped me the next day with taxis! The next day I had a great breakfast and, despite checking out, because I missed the wine and a visit of the castle when I was supposed to arrive they offered it to me on the day. What was a stressful and exhausting trip to Lecce started so beautifully.

Elegant hotel, beautifully and tastefully restored in character with its history. A delightful place to stay but it should be realised that with only 9 rooms this facility exists as primarily a event venue. However, a wedding that took place during our stay did not cause us any inconvenience at all. Without any events taking place there are some charming areas to sit and relax. The staff are extremely pleasant and helpful and the breakfast is on another level altogether! 4 menus to choose from, all beautifully prepared and served to you. None of the usual buffet walking about !! The hotel is very close to the old town, approx 10-minute walk. We were totally satisfied with our 3-night stay and would certainly return if ever again in the Lecce area.

The pictures don’t do this hotel justice! It is so beautiful! The Style, restoration and history of the building is marvelous. The little touches like a key like a stamp or fresh flowers everywhere, along with the gardens are impressive. Our room was very comfortable. The location is convenient to good restaurants and sites, tourist events like wine or olive oil tasting or even short day trips. The front desk staff gave good recommendations! If you just want to lounge around the hotel it is a place to itself. The cleaning staff are so thoughtful! Our room is immaculate when we return. The breakfast is so good and the staff there are kind tend to your requests. If we are back in this area we will stay here again.
