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.

What is at the hotel is excellent, but there are many things they do not have. They do not have a pool, jacuzzi, evening restaurant, fitness room, business center, or in room microwave, mini-bar, or coffee maker. Location: It is near major highways. It is not within walking distance to anything. It is within a few kilometers of Lecce central. Property: This is a conference hotel. The grounds are beautiful. There is a nice water feature in the rear that is not operating. There is a lot of outdoor parking, but it fills up. There is underground parking available for a surcharge. There is a bar which has lite fare and Italian hours of operation. The lobby is large. Everything is clean. The roof garden was locked. Staff: Some speak English reasonably well. They are very helpful and prompt. We had a low battery on the safe. A technician was immediately sent to the room. They do not have coffee makers in the room. They sent us a hot water pot and boiler so we could make instant coffee. Room: We had a large suite. It was not a true two room suite. The living area was separated from the bedroom by countertops holding the TV and drawers. The room was large and clean. The furnishing were modern with lots of white. The exception was the large sofa bed. It was blue cloth and did not fit the decor. The room had hardwood floors. In the middle of the living room was a very low, round white object. It had no function but decoration. The long dressing table on a wall just inside the door was helpful, but it had no electrical outlet. The desk area in the bedroom had no lighting. The chairs were molded plastic. The mattress was firm. both pillow choices were large and firm. There we no night stands. Instead there was shelf that ran along the headboard. The bathroom was large. The shower was large with the showerhead and the wand in two separate areas of the shower. The one sink was wide and shallow. Breakfast: The breakfast room was large. The staff fills the order in a cafeteria line. The service is prompt unless you go down when the tour group is eating. There are many food choices. The coffee is self serve from a machine. This is a slow process especially with a line.

Stayed in deluxe suite. Nice large room with very comfortable bed. Excellent service from front desk. Great breakfast. Good location close to highway for visiting Puglia. Restaurant owned by hotel is 5 mins from hotel with excellent food. Had linguine with seafood, Aranci balls, and pizza another night. All excellent. The only issue is the wifi It is not consistent and drops in and out.

One nights stay for a local wedding. Great hotel with friendly staff. Clean. Large spacious rooms with comfortable beds and pillows. Great shower and good air conditioning. Crap hairdryer but asked at reception and a proper hairdryer was given - that’s what I call great service (not all hotels do it!) kudos to you guys!! Would recommend!!

We stayed here for 3 nights. The hotel is minimalist modern, and pristine throughout. The beds are huge and comfortable, the bathrooms very smart. The air conditioning is quiet and effective. Superb breakfast-I wish we could have kept the orange juicer! Very helpful reception and other staff. Plentiful car parking. A short taxi journey to the stunning centre of Lecce cost us around 15 Euros. Recommended without hesitation.

Nice hotel with spacious rooms.The breakfast was nice and the parking was free. The location serves as base to explore Puglia and Salentina. The bar near the reception wasn't very vivid and a bit expensive although the quality of the spirits was poor.

The hotel was new and rooms very modern. The staff at the front counter were not very lively, however, the breakfast and room staff were all very nice and helpful. Although the hotel is a short drive to the main part of Lecce, there isn’t much to do around the hotel itself. The hotel definitely needs more facilities like a pool, gym or restaurant, especially since there is a lot of space for it. Breakfast was nice and provided a great variety of foods.

As others reviewers have already said, this is a surprisingly great property: the hotel is pristine, the rooms are large and comfortable, the bed extremely comfortable, the staff accommodating, and we never heard a thing from any other room (we were on the 4th floor). Excellent air conditioning and a fine breakfast at a reasonable rate. Our first stay was so good that we added a second unplanned stay later during our holiday. We ate one night at the hotel's recommended restaurant down the road, when we didn't feel like venturing further out. The pizza was good enough and the restaurant employees very helpful and friendly. It's a place that draws local families with small children for celebrations. The restaurant also offers hotel guests 10 percent off, a nice perk. The hotel is 100-percent smoke free, and takes that policy seriously. Hooray. You'll need a car to stay here. Lecce--even outside of the old town--is hard to drive in (lots of traffic controlled streets), so do get driving directions to the parking lots outside the old town. You can drive to the sea (San Catoldo) from the hotel in about 15- 20 minutes. As others have said already, a pool would make this hotel just amazing.

Very large clean rooms, Great service, free parking, excellent breakfast. Great location to serve as base to explore lower 1/3 of Puglia if you have a car. It would have been perfect,If this hotel had a gym or pool to unwind in after a long day of exploration.

It’s a beautiful, modern and clean hotel. You should stay there to visit the best places at Puglia because it’s around 60’ from almost everywhere that matters at this region. They also are close to a very good restaurante (walking distance) and 4 to 5 minutes to a commercial center where you can find a hypermarket, pharmacy, and almost everything you need.
