    These suites and their amazing history, which has been purposefully kept & treasured, are absolutely exquisite! Nikos is one of the most friendly, helpful, generous and informative hosts you could ever meet or ask for. Our whole experience here was absolute perfection and we couldn’t recommend this place or Lecce higher.

    Nothing. A very well-maintained property with all the amenities to make you comfortable: Keurig coffee, tea makers, refrigerator, air conditioning, electrical plugs well placed for charging phones.

    A beautiful mansion and a unique experience that will make a great memory. If you are lucky enough to book one of the three suites, do t hesitate. When have you slept in a suite with a domed ceiling 25 feet above your bed adorned with a fresco of angels? Nico the knowledgeable, helpful and warm host made our stay special. He spent a lot of time marking our map with places to see and the best restaurants, ice cream shops. He made us feel like family who were staying in their 150-year-old mansion. We loved the two balconies perched above two streets where we could watch locals pedal by in bikes, as well as international tourists. The location is fabulous, in the old walled city, around the corner from the Duomo and easy to walking distance to all the attractions and restaurants, shops and lively bars. Nico was extremely helpful with directions to parking.

    The apartment is gorgeous, just like live in the history. Everything is original from about 200 years ago. The host is very nice, he gave us very helpful suggestions like where to eat and where/what to see in Lecce. The location is very central while still quite when we closed the windows/doors.

Breakfast was delicious, made with local delicacies and beautifully presented on a trolley which was wheeled into our dining area every morning.

    This was a fabulous place to stay while checking out Lecce. The apartment is in the absolute centre of the town in a 200 year old building with the spacious apartment furnished with wonderful antiques. When we left the apartment each time we were right in the middle of everything. We parked our car within the building which made it so easy. The living room and bedroom was huge with beautiful 14ft ceilings all beautifully decorated. Nikos the owner was extremely helpful and advised us restaurants and locations to visit along with the history of the building. The breakfast was wheeled into our living room on a trolley and we could not help feeling we were royalty. We could sit on our balcony of the bedroom and watch the activity in the narrow streets below but the apartment was super quiet. Great stay if you want to feel special! Thanks Nikos for everything.

    We didn't like the fact that we had to leave this place.

    My wife and I loved the rooms, the staff, the location and the breakfasts. When I say rooms I mean rooms, not a room. The B & B is located in a mansion owned by an aristocrat in the late 9th century. My wife gasped when our host, Nico, opened the door and she saw a beautiful and aithful reproduction of a 19th century sitting room. It was a 20x30 ft room with balcony and a 25 ft high arched ceiling and chandelier. Our bedroom, of similar size, was adjacent and similarly decorated. Parking was in an old carriage house located below the rooms. Breakfasts were served in our rooms and we felt like the Duke and Duchess of Lecce. I can not say enough about our hosts, Nico and Valencia. My wife injured herself and required medical attention. Nico drove her to the emergency room at 8 PM and stayed with her to insure she received proper treatment. He, then, took her to an all-night pharmacy to fill a prescription written by the doctor. The location of the place could not be better. It is within the old city walls and easy walking distance to restaurants and historical buildings. I am not a guy to write rave reviews but I make an exception in this case. If you plan on visiting Lecce, do yourself a favor an stay at this B & B.

    There was nothing we disliked. Couple very minor points to note. The mattress in the room was comfortable but a little old and had lost its shape. The air conditioning was great, but only in the bedroom and not the living room. Also, if you are driving, worth being aware that driving in central Lecce is narrow and pedestrianised, took us a little while to get used to.

    A lovely stay in a very spacious room, filled with interesting historical pieces and even a working piano. It is right in the centre of Lecce and, if the car park is available, is the perfect place to base yourself. Nikos was a superb host, very welcoming and knowledgable, really made sure we enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was really good too, delivered to your room in the morning. Hope to return one day!

    Loved the personal assistance from our host Nikos. He was always happy to share local information to keep us busy and entertained. Nikos wheeled in a magnificent breakfast trolley every morning. He even drove us personally to the railway station on the day of our departure . The rooms were absolutely authentic and decorated to a very high standard. Thank you to Vicenza and Nikos for making our trip to Lecce very special.

    Words fail me. The location is amazingly convenient in the historical centre. The property is a 19th century family palazzo, furnished in the original style of that era. The spacious drawing/ lounge room and generous bedroom both have there own balcony so you can enjoy the quiet mornings or view the activity in the evenings. The king size bed is very comfortable. The bathroom is stylish and the shower is great. Our host Nikos was waiting for us when we arrived and helped us explore Lecce. His kindness and help in ensuring we enjoyed our stay was very much appreciated.
