LuLeccio

The good: This is a lovely property, optimally located just within the city gates of the old town. It has been beautifully restored and was very clean. The interior space was large with a small terrace. We were three people and rented the wellness suite with a sauna for 300E a night, breakfast not included. There is a small kitchen area and a separate entrance. There were two bathrooms, but the shower in the master is very small with no place to put toiletries except on the floor. The town is fantastic, certainly worth a longer stay than our two nights. Secure parking is located within a 5-minute walk, but you must call the hotel and reserve a discounted spot for yourself and hope they do not lose your reservation. Issues: I emailed the manager that we would be three people instead of two, and he responded. We also notified them of our arrival time and asked about parking, and were assured of no problems. Upon arriving, the owner said we had only reserved for two, and that parking would be impossible without a reservation. These issues were worked out, but not without some stress, he was not very friendly. Generally, I love smaller Italian hotels because the owners are usually so kind and welcoming, often with a glass of wine on arrival. This was not the case. However, the owner Roberto walked us back to the parking and made arrangements. When I asked him how to turn on the sauna, he told me it would cost an additional 40E per day which was quite disappointing so at that price I opted to not use it. I had booked a "wellness suite with a sauna", and I thought that is what I was paying for. There are charges for everything. There is one bath towel per person for five? days, a clean towel is 5E, check out is at 10, and if you are late there is a 25 percent surcharge charge for every two hours. When I paid my bill, he neglected to subtract the 216E deposit I had paid with the reservation and did not provide a receipt until asked. He told me he would send the money to my bank, which is difficult with a US bank. I showed him how to refund the money with the credit card app. Pay attention to the bill, I do not think he was dishonest, just very disorganized. There is a cute outdoor terrace, but only one chair for a two-bed suite. The maid left our interior door unlocked after cleaning, when I told Roberto, he said that is the custom, it was a safe area. Due to the unfriendliness of the manager, the excessive charges, and the lack of organization what should have been a relaxing stay in a beautiful city was stressful and difficult. I would not stay again.

Lu Leccio is a stunning property in an excellent location. Clean, well stocked, quiet with easy access to parking was perfect. Roberto is a lovely and kind host. We enjoyed talking with him and learning more about his property. Martine's detailed info ensured check-in was a breeze. We'd happily stay again whenever we get back to Puglia.

Gorgeous hotel! The owner has done a masterful job incorporating modern amenities into a centuries old palace. Each guest room is unique and we loved our 2nd floor room with a terrace. The staff was great with recommendations and helped arrange a bike tour. The perfect base to explore Lecce.

Wonderful hotel in a terrific location next to the Napoli gate in the historic center. We stayed in a beautifully designed and immaculate room in the historic building. The room, bed, shower, coffee, outdoor patio…were perfect. The hotel location is easily accessible to all of Lecce’s sights and there is secure parking very close to the hotel. The staff at the hotel were very welcoming and helpful. We did a bike tour through the historic City with Velo which was fun and informative. We’d highly recommend Lu Leccio for a great stay in Lecce.

Roberto the owner is a lovely helpful man who has great attention to detail. The hotel is extremely clean and the bedrooms are designed with the upmost desire to give you the best resting place for your stay. We have stayed here before and couldn’t wait to return. Lecce is a lovely city and Lu Leccio is situated extremely well to explore the city. Parking is local and convenient. The new restaurant is first class and offers wonderful food and a place to sit outside and have drinks in the evening.The manager of the restaurant is so helpful and will go out of his way to accommodate your needs. I would have no hesitation to recommend Lu Leccio to anyone wanting a wonderful place to stay in a wonderful city. It’s position by the Porto Napoli gives a freedom of space and from the terrace lounge area the views are fab. Well done to all the staff and management for a super job and thank you for making our stay so memorable. We will be back to see you again for sure. Love Simon and julie UK

Eigenlijk hebben de recensies hiervoor al alles gezegd. Top locatie, mooie kamer, wij hadden de junior suite, en gastvrij ontvangst. Goed ontbijt. Een echte aanrader in Lecce en als je het geluk hebt dat ze een kamer vrij hebben niet twijfelen maar boeken. Ciao Frenske
