VIANNA SUITES SPA

Alessandro the resident owner was very welcoming, excellent communication and easy to check in , Amazing swimming pool in the basement (available for 5 hours a day shared with 2 other apartments, also could hire for private use in the evenings for an extra fee), complete with bluetooth surround sound. Tasty fresh savoury dish and cakes for breakfast. High spec renovated palazzo.

minor details- some noise from doors/buzzers. Not really a suite nor a spa in the usual sense. As this is a small establishment the breakfast choice is limited compared to a large hotel (unfair comparison I know!)

Great property and glorious high ceiling rooms suite. Host was so helpful and friendly. Really nice to stay in a period property which is clearly so loved by the owners

Excellent property, beautifully restored Palazzo with 3 guest rooms. Packed with little luxuries to make your stay more comfortable. The Host meets everyone on arrival and gives a tour of the property. Spotlessly clean. The Pool is the wow factor, heated, good size and Bose surround sound! NB it has limited access and guests pay to book private evening slots.

Nice people running the facility but a bit over priced for what you get. Extremely noisy as there is a street right outside the large window in the entry room/ sleeping area. It is Italy so expect motorcycle and scooters all hours.

Superb quality room with excellent facilities. Very friendly and helpful host

Beautifully renovated property with big rooms and bathroom. Located right in the heart of Lecce. It felt homely and welcoming. The bed was very comfy.

There was really nothing not to like

The host Alessandro and his staff were exceptional and made us feel right at home. The breakfast was of the region, with fresh cheese from a family farm, freshly made Foccacia and other delights. Alessandro made a number of recommendations to eat, of which all turned out to be enjoyable. The focus was mainly on eating local fare, which in all cases was well cooked. The suites are well located in the centre of Lecce, giving easy access to the centre of the city. Eating out was good value for money compared to Northern Italy. Alessandro also provided suggestions of places to eat around the heel of Italy, which turned out to be excellent.

The parking. This was endemic for the whole city. There are limited spaces on the streets and ar peak times, there are many drivers seeking spaces. The cost is modest, but the vacant spaces rare. There are car parks 10 to 15 minutes away which are more expensive but secure.

A great place to stay while in Lecce, central location and very helpful owner

Very central location on the edge of the old town. Small (3 bedrooms) but very clean, tidy, great rooms and bathrooms, great breakfast and very friendly and chatty host. Gave us great information on local restaurants etc. Pool in the basement was a great facility (even if I didn't get to use it). Would highly recommend for small groups or individual couples.

Entrance door was a small bit glitchy, but host popped around within minutes and sorted it. Did not cause any issues and the lack of a key(s) was actually a bonus as the electronic entrance and bedroom door keypads meant you weren't carrying keys...
