You cant beat the location and although clean and comfortable the rooms are rather small and the bathroom not great. However compared with others we stayed in in S Italy, it stands out as being the best. Parking was posisble in nearby garages, a real plus for Lecce.

Great choice for exploring Lecce. Upscale hotel with beautiful, well furnished rooms (bathroom is small). Excellent breakfast and restaurant. Best location in the city, across piazza from flamboyant St. Croce Church and near (via walking) all major sights. Garage available (valet) for 15 euros per night, reasonable in light of difficulty parking in Lecce city center. Somewhat difficult to access hotel with a car, with narrow alleys, a situation exacerbated by construction in the area - get good directions.

We spent 2 days in Lecce. The hotel is grand home away from home, with excellent service and friendly helpful staff. It has a great central location in the historical part of the city, within walking distance of all amenities. The buffet breakfast had one of the largest selections of dishes to suit any needs. I will certainly stay here again when I return for another vacation in this beautiful part of Italy.

Intially, I was disappointed with the rooms and staff but after our experiences in other hotels in southern Italy, this hotel is worth considering. The location was central and the staff was hospitable, although the friendliness was forced. Dinner was appetizing. The cleanliness disappointing, but worse was still to come.
