Top Hotels Near Castle of Charles V in Lecce from AU$119

"We love this place in Lecce! We stayed here in January 2025 and came back again in January 2026. (Actually, we built our entire trip around wanting to come back!!) The view of Piazza Sant'Oronzo is stunning. And the rooms are beautifully renovated and truly match the style of Lecce - with bathroom tiles and floors in the same color that all the beautiful baroque buildings in the city are in. We also love the breakfast - it's a genius idea of the owner to offer vouchers for breakfast in a local cafe, as you get a wonderful selection of freshly baked pastries and local meats/cheeses, great coffee, and an experience of sitting outside and enjoying a local ritual. :) We will definitely be back again!!

"Everything was beautiful. This was a 16 th century palace converted into a hotel in 1997. Totally amazing. The best breakfast I’ve ever had at a hotel. Plush, lush, extravagant, and phenomenal. In the best location. A phenomenal experience. "

"All the Boutique Hotels should learn from this hotel. Every detail was perfect. Well done! "

"My room was spacious and even though the hotel is within the walled area of Lecce, it can still be reached by taxi. The only negative are the stars, but the owner is helpful and friendly and i'm sure would give a hand with the luggage. There are two excellent restaurants that are part of the hotel complex."

"Breakfast menu was fresh . "

"Perfect "

"Exceptional level of service. Exceptional breakfast. Having snacks available in the shared areas in the evening was a great plus. Value for money was outstanding, for example the sauna and pool. Location perfect for exploring Lecce on foot or Sarento by car."

"Fascinating hotel in building hundreds of years old. Beautiful open spaces in the hotel. Room was spacious and nice breakfast spread. Must park on the street but ample parking nearby. 12-15 minute walk to center of Lecce"

"It’s a really nice apartment in a historic building in the old Lecce. The location is very safe and convenient to explore the old town. There is also a street parking within 5 min walk, which was very helpful. Desideria is wonderful and very easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend. "
