I had a nice 5-night stay here for a business trip. The rooms are very good sized and comfortable. There are not a lot of outlets, but the two by the bed are a help. The bathroom was clean and reasonably well equipped. Breakfast was good, and Italian style (not a lot of hot food, lots of cakes and cookies, and some fruit). They were always happy to make coffee or tea, which was nice. The wifi was ok, though not ideal. The B&B is very well located for being around the town (which is small in any case). The problem is that the windows from the rooms tend to open onto the square, which can be very loud until late and night and from quite early in the morning. When it's warm (which is almost always), the AC is necessary if the windows are closed, and it's quite loud as well. Their "airport transfer" turned out to be one of the hotel workers driving his car to the airport and back (not terrible, but it was not a particularly large car, so for 3 it would be quite tight). Overall it was a nice hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. I would stay there again if I knew everyone I was with would be comfortable with the noise levels.

One of my favorites places I have ever stayed!

I booked two nights at B&B LecceSalento because of the location, price, and positive reviews. I had no idea it would end up being one of my favorite places ever! The location is perfect for exploring Lecce. The views over the piazza are beautiful. The rooms are very clean and well-decorated. The wifi is fast and reliable. Breakfast is delicious, with lots of homemade items. And best of all, Dana, Claudia, and Simone made me feel so welcome! I was heading out on a one-week solo cycling trip and was very nervous. They gave me advice about places to visit and even gave me their personal cell phone numbers in case I needed anything. They also took care of my luggage for the week. I ended up a booking another night there at the end of my trip and had an early train to catch in the morning. While I was out for the evening, Dana prepared a special breakfast for me to take on the train since I was going to be leaving before breakfast in the morning. I can't say enough good things about them! They are such kind, caring, and friendly people and made me feel like I had a family in Lecce. If you are going to Lecce, book a room at B&B LecceSalento right now. It's the best!

Dont miss staying here in Lecce.

Big room, comfortable bed, overlooking the Piazza San Oronzo. We arrived at 930am, left our luggage in the lobby, got keys to the room, and returned in the evening with the luggage in the room waiting for us.

Loved it!

Not keen initially on the building the accommodation is in and the entrance to it but the room was really spacious and comfortable and overlooked the main Piazza Sant'Oronzo with french doors that opened so I enjoyed watching the life in the piazza and had a wonderful view over the Roman amphitheatre etc. We were offered an alternative room in case we found it too noisy and some people might not be too keen on the late night busking in the square but we enjoyed it. Obviously it was very central for sightseeing. The continental breakfast on offer was excellent and included home make cakes- the staff were very nice.

I'm glad I followed the advice of other on booking this room, because it deserves the high rating. The B&B is located right at the heart of Lecce, just of the main Piazza, so you only have to step out the from door to enjoy everything this beautiful city has to offer. The couple that run the B&B were very helpful and courteous, and we were given a room the was incredibly spacious, with a large bathroom / en-suite, and despite not having the best view because it was located within the central / back area of the hotel, it meant it was very quiet despite the location. Breakfast in the morning consisted of delicious homemade cakes and treats made by the owner's wife, who was clearly an excellent cook!, and also fresh fruit, juice, coffee etc. Our stay at B&B LecceSalento was very pleasant and made the perfect ending to a great holiday.

The host were very accomodating & helpful. We stayed five days, the breakfasts were great ! The rooms were clean and comfortable. Lecce historical was just outside our B&B. Thanks for the great service!

Giant room with a view, considerate host.

Located on one floor of an apartment building,when I rang the intercom I was fearing the worst.Once inside the host was most welcoming,offering hot coffee,whilst he dealt with the paperwork. The room had a splendid view of the main piazza.It was huge modern and spotless,like the en-suite as well.Wi-fi was good and you had your own key to come and go as you wished. Breakfast was varied and unlimited quantity including local speciality pastries.Being on the main square made noise a bit of a problem early morning when the street cleaners maintained the piazza,5am is not a hardship for an early riser like me.I would definitely stay here anytime.

Nice place in the historical center.

Next to the amphitheater and a nice park in the historical center. Our room had a very nice view of the main square. Owner helped us with parking. Would stay here again.

I stayed for 2 weeks of my 8 week trip to Italy. The location was amazing. Wifi was very slow but I know they are getting new fiber optic soon. The bed was not comfortable but other than that the staff was great, Good breakfast, somewhere to lock my bike up on main level, and one of the best views out of a hotel balcony I have had in a long time no really enjoyed my stay in Lecce. Some great bike rides along the coast too.

Great location but bring your earplugs!

Loved the location but I had to be willing to not sleep until about 1 or 2 a.m. and be prepared to wait up with the street sweepers about 6:30 a.m. The room was fine with it's amenities. The staff was helpful and provided a lot of food options for breakfast. BUT if you have a front room viewing the piazza you need to be a night owl because you really can't get sleep until about 2 am. There was always something happening (often music) and the crowd noise was constant.

Best view in town.

We stayed at Lecce for one night, staying at the hotel was perfect because it allowed us to visit the city in a short period of time. The hotel is located in a perfect location that allows you to go to every touristic point by walking. The hotel was much more what we expected for the price. The room view to the central square was really nice and no noise at all. It is a simple hotel with a nice big and clean room, the bed and pillows were also good. The owners gave us some recommendation for restaurants and they were really good.

I’ve stayed in better university dorm rooms...

Look elsewhere; pay a bit more. It’s a mixed-use apt bldg w/ kitchens ripped out to make en-suite bed sit b&b units. Unit #1: ignore “dvd player, bidet and complimentary bottled water” in the online Room Details. BATH: Newer renovation; plastic cup’s big adhesive label still being scraped off; partially falling sheer curtain tacked up in front of valence screw holes & old fittings; below the sink brown packing tape covering the tiles (an electrical socket cut?). Very small shower cabin. MAIN ROOM: Too many wall scuffs & bad patch jobs; curtain rod arms masking-taped to their brackets; ceiling holes from an old valence; sheer curtain (needs a washing, bring your eye mask); nearby light switch raised via a very bad patch & fill job; floor moldings don’t meet & no caulking; bedside table w/ drawer bottom stained & warped under paper towels (trash it!); 10 badly patched holes from a previous TV wall mount; shelf below new flat-screened TV has 2 nice wooden brackets & 1 of ugly metal w/ screws exposed atop a plaster gouge (at eye level while sitting at the table, with no desk lamp). THE GOOD: Location, wireless internet, elevator. Very nice owner couple; he speaks English. BREAKFAST: better than typical; served in a spare room of the owner’s apt w/ small balcony. They're most likely renovating the b&b units first.
