Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Great location and nice looking hotel and the staff were pleasant. The breakfast was served on the roof terrace but wasn't very exciting. The room was a good size with a skylight but was bright and airy. However there was some heavy rain and the ceiling leaked and there was water over the floor. When I mentioned this, I got the impression they blamed me! The toiletries in the bathroom were very poor, just a couple of sachets (I bring my own so not an issue for me) The minibar wasn't very well stocked and the bar didn't appear to be open. No tea or coffee making facilities in the room (I have been in lower starred hotels in Italy that provide much more) Lastly I have never seen a hotel charge for slippers or extra towels! Overall it's a decent enough hotel but the finer details are missing

On a beautiful square overlooking the baroque church of Santa Chiara, the hotel exudes old world charm. Our family room had a queen sized bed and a loft with a large bed for total privacy. A nice balcony was on the square/park.

Excellent location. Right in the center of the old town. The negatives are that it advertises a roof top jacuzzi and bar. There is no bar and you are not allowed use the Jacuzzi. It is only for show. It also says gym, hot tub and pool. You have to pay extra to use them. Other than that, an excellent hotel, decent enough breakfast, with lovely pleasant staff

This hotel sucks

Do not believe this hotel when they say they have parking. They do not and told me so when I arrived with my bags. Very unhelpful. Simply shrugged shoulders and did little to help. To be fair the city of Lecce is almost impossible for cars so little surprise they don’t allow them into the centre. Had I known, had the hotel actually said something beforehand, I could have made a different decision. Maybe still stay but accept what was to happen. Or not to stay and find somewhere else that could better accommodate a car. We are on a road trip so the car aspect is very important. That the hotel did nothing to assist is unacceptable. The fact that the hotel is fine, location great, city lovely is sadly beside the point. The hotel management sucks. Their attitude ruined our stay. I am very very disappointed.

One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. Staff were great, the facilities and standard of upkeep excellent, and a really comfortable bed. Breakfast offered a generous selection of continental style food. The hotel is right in the middle of Lecce 's historic district, my room window overlooking one of the top 5 sights of the city. Just 15 minute walk from the rail station. Just about a perfect place to stay in what quickly became one of my top 10 European cities.

Hotel in the heart of Lecce, on a small square across from the baroque church the hotel is named after. Large and fancy lobby. Room basic but reasonable size for Europe. Decent sized bathroom with good rain shower. Internet worked well, but would have liked a bigger work desk. Breakfast room on 4th floor, with view over nearby square and streets. Solid choice of mainly cold (other than eggs and bacon) items.

The staff were very helpful and very friendly and always available. The shower in our room was very old and not cleaned well due to years of buildup (likely). I was disappointed that although there is a pool and a hot tub, neither were opened and you had to book the spa to be able to use the pool. That information was not clear at the time of booking. The hotel was in a perfect location, near everything and the room was spacious and comfortable.

We arrived in late morning. Left our bags at reception--when we returned, they were already in our room. The Zona Traffico Limitada limits automobile access times to the hotel, but you just want to take your car to a parking area (after 2 pm, their garage will send a valet for your car; we used Parkejoo, an underground garage, until then). Nice breakfast. No need for a hotel restaurant or bar, plenty of choices nearby. Room was quite attractive with great woodwork and curtains--fitting into the Baroque spirit of the city.
