Pollicastro Boutique Hotel

A beautifully, architecturally designed hotel with attention to detail in the historic centre of Lecce. Artwork around the hotel was a feature to admire! Staff were welcoming and accommodating. Rooms were spacious and well appointed. Breakfast was in abundance and catered well for a gluten free option. There is also a lift which is a help! A small boutique hotel full of old charm with modern facilities.

Where to start!..... Gorgeous 16th century palace remodeled into a lovely hotel that is one of the most beautiful places we've ever stayed and we travel a lot. It is centrally located, walking distance to everything and made me feel like a renaissance nobel but with all the modern day amenities. Roof deck, stately bar, wonderful spa, lounging areas that you'd want to linger for hours, and the most wonderful breakfast we have ever had in a hotel. Fresh and local fruits (kiwi and pineapple and berries), local meats and cheeses, home made breads, home made pasteries, home made jams, fresh squeezed juices, artisan yogurts, everything you could ever want. Even coffee and eggs to your order. You know when you get breakfast with your room and it's all so blah and generally lack luster? Well this is the polar opposite. I felt like I was eating breakfast at some rich lords home that was a foodie and loved the best of the best of everything. It was HANDS DOWN the best breakfast at a hotel we have EVER had. The decor was timeless, rich, and well appointed to the previous palace. Art work was beautiful and creative. The rooms were HUGE and palatial. Gorgeous marble bathrooms with good toiletries and everything you need. Space for all of your travel. Huge bathtubs. Big closets, Great mini bars and the beds! ah the beds were luscious and you could pick what kind of pillow you wanted even though the 2 they put on your bed were perfect.

The room was absolutely stunning, maybe the most beautiful and unusual hotel we have ever stayed in. The staff were just so lovely and accommodating, they were very respectful asking if we wanted to speak in English or Italian so that we could practise, and were generous with their time, two of the loveliest ladies ever we spoke to on reception. The room was absolutely spotless and so comfortable and spacious, the outdoor bath in our room was also an amazing experience, and I cannot even begin to describe how delicious and generous the breakfast was - we didn't need to eat anything else all day. They even left a gorgeous bottle of wine for our anniversary. This definitely deserves 5 stars, one of the most beautiful and unique places ever.

Our stay at Pollicastro Boutique Hotel was a decadent and very special treat. The building itself is incredible with many historic features and the artwork displayed therein absolutely breath taking and beautiful. The rooms are stunning and modern with wonderful decadent touches and the roof terrace spectacular over looking the old city of beautiful Lecce. The breakfasts are sublime, fresh and delicious. The crowning feature of our stay were the staff who were just lovely, so helpful and looked after us to make our stay at the Pollicastro Boutique Hotel so very special. We would love to come back to stay again. Thank you for everything!
