Guest Reviews
- serge (10/5): - Accueil excellent. Environnement et siruation excellents. Chambre décorée avec goût. Excellente expérience. Merci Francesca.
- monica (10/5): An oasis of peace within the hustle and bustle of the old town. - Perfectly located for all attractions in the old town but very quiet and tucked away in a side street so noise at night wasn’t a problem. Our host Francesca was a delight and made us feel very welcome- something we didn’t experience very often throughout our time in Puglia. Nothing.
- Michael (10/5): - Breakfast was excellent and the location was perfect. Francesca was a charming and extremely helpful host.
- JEAN (9/5): En plein coeur de la vieille ville très intéressante de Lecce, un endroit parfait. - Dans la vieille ville, une cours intérieure magique et paisible ☺️
Des chambres modernes et décorées avec goût.
Un excellent personnel Rien!
- Vivianne (10/5): This property captures the golden essence of Lecce - Beautifully presented, unique and well managed. Amazing breakfast! Francesca is so helpful with everything. Can’t fault it.
- Marie (9/5): -
- thomas (10/5): Wonderful place - Special place very nice people wonderful night Both Wi-Fi and mobile reception is bad. That’s the only negative.
- philippe (8/5): conforme à l'annonce - très bien
- Athanasia (10/5): Our stay was super. - This B&B is really super! And I believe our standards are high. It’s nicely decorated and clean. The rooms have plenty of space. It is in very central position and you can walk Lecce historic centre easily yet it is quite. The breakfast is rich and tasty. Francesca, the owner, is there for everything you might need and she is super polite and nice.
I recommend this B&B with all my heart.
- Carolyn (10/5): Fabulous historic property, beautifully renovated, very comfortable and clean. Francesca was a wonderful host- very atte - Fabulous historic property, beautifully renovated
- Elżbieta (10/5): Pobyt bardzo udany, pogoda również. Lecce wpisujemy na listę miejsc , które koniecznie trzeba odwiedzić - Lokalizacja obiektu bardzo dobrą, w bezpośredniej bliskości od Bazyliki św. Krzyża, w samym centrum starego miasta. Pokój z wyjściem na klimatyczny ogród w którym właścicielka Franceska serwowała kawkę i włoskie śniadania. Szczególne podziękowania za zaangażowanie Franczeski i pomoc w organizacji naszego pobytu. Chętnie wrócimy tu znowu. -
- Tom (10/5): Unieke locatie in hartje Lecce - Zeer vriendelijke host Franscesca. Goed en vers ontbijt. Perfecte cappuccino. Hygiënische kamers. Zeer goede centrale ligging in Lecce.
- Hélène (9/5): Emplacement magique - Emplacement top mais calme (même le week-end !). Déco moderne et mise en lumière mettant en valeur les très beaux volumes. Des petits détails un peu moins qualitatifs que ce à quoi on s’attendait : mini sachets de savons mesquins, pas d’après shampooing, peu de tablette pour poser ses affaires dans la sdb, serviettes rappelant plus des torchons, petit-déjeuner sympa mais pas si bon…
Eviter si possible le parking conseillé Koojoo, tout neuf, au nord, à 25 eur la journée entamée.
- Alkiviadis (10/5): Η Φραντσέσκα ήταν πολύ ευγενική και εξυπηρετική -
- Barbara (10/5): We loved our stay in Lecce and our accommodations were perfect. - Spacious clean well located. Great exterior space. Nice landscaping. Just need hooks for towels in the bathroom. Otherwise perfect.
- Daphne (10/5): - This is an outstanding B and B. Communication with the host was excellent and check in was smooth and easy. The rooms were spacious and tastesfully furnished and the breakfast was delicious. The B and B is a few steps away from restaurants, bars, shops and historic sites and yet is quiet and peaceful. Nothing
- Maria Graciela (10/5): Excelente!! Recomendable para visitar y disfrutar de Lecce - Excelente Ubicación, habitaciones amplias. Muy amable la atención de Francesca. Buen desayuno
- María Margarita (10/5): -
- Daniel (9/5): - Breakfast was excellent, with multiple choices. The space is beautifully restored, and has been featured in an Italian interior design book; it’s gorgeous. The lighting in the room, while romantic, is insufficient for practical use. The desk area has no lighting for reading.
- Kas (10/5): Highly recommend this beautiful B+B in the hear of Lecce - Beautifully renovated B+B in the Centro Storico within walking distance to everything. Modern, clean rooms and lovely breakfast each morning.
The host, Francesca, was very welcoming and helpful for our stay in Lecce. Everything was perfect.

- Nigel (10/5): A brilliant facility and would recommend whole heartedly! - This is an amazing find. Beautifully renovated and peaceful. Bed was comfortable and shower great. Lovely to sit outside and have a glass of wine and read - an added bonus! Breakfast was amazing and catered for gluten free with no problems. Francesca was always on hand for useful tips. We loved our stay! Could do with a chest of drawers in the room - but this is a very minor detail.
- Renate (9/5): -
- Mireille (10/5): Logement cosy idéalement situé - Logement très accueillant , extrêmement bien décoré , très propre , très belle restauration d’un bâtiment d’époque . Personnel aux petits soins , petit déjeuner parfait . Emplacement idéal pour visiter le centre historique . Rien !
- Joanne (10/5): Stay at this hidden gem in Lecce! There are only 3 rooms and we were lucky to grab 2 of them for 4 nights. There is easy - The property was perfectly situated for exploring Lecce or making day trips. Francesca was so friendly and extremely helpful with restaurant and sightseeing ideas. Would not change a thing!
- MorganeGgn (9/5): - Très bien situé dans le vieux quartier et au calme.
Une vieille bâtisse très jolie
Francesca nous a très bien accueilli, est à l'écoute et toujours serviable.
Très bon petit déjeuner.
- Bram (9/5): - Alles: netheid, service, locatie en kamer Helemaal niets
- Sibel (9/5): charming, well located stay in Lecce with spacious rooms - B&B Kabala is perfectly located in Lecce, and the moment you arrive you feel instantly relaxed. The rooms are spacious, with unique design touches, beautiful garden and every morning a delicious breakfast is prepared by the sweet and attentive Francesca, who goes above and beyond to help with anything you need. We had a wonderful time staying here, exploring Lecce’s rich history by day and enjoying its vibrant nightlife and restaurants by night. Nothing
- Ivan (9/5): -
- Jacqueline (8/5): Lovely, well located B&B - Lovely little oasis of calm. Very quiet whilst being only a few minutes walk from the bars and restaurants.
Very clean and beautifully decorated. The staff were incredibly helpful and we were able to leave our luggage at the accommodation on arrival which was earlier than the normal check-in time.
Breakfast was good. We very much enjoyed the fresh fruit and pastries. Nothing was too much trouble and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again and recommend to friends. The only thing that would have improved our experience would have been some comfortable seating and umbrellas to sit and relax outside and have a drink or perhaps read for a while.
- Mary K (10/5): Perfect! - Francesca, who helped us out with everything, was amazing! We also got to chat a few minutes with her father as well. This is a family run property. They are incredible hosts and we could not have asked for anything better. The location is perfect, the room was so comfortable and unique.
We loved Lecce! NA
- Sebastiaan (9/5): Heerlijke B&B om Lecce te verkennen! - Hele fijne rustige plek in het centrum van Lecce. Lekker ontbijt en een fijne plek om even te zitten na een dag struinen door Lecce. Alles was top!
- Poppy (10/5): Total relaxation. - Francesca was such a beautiful sweet host. The breakfast was amazing. It was perfect.
- Pablo (10/5): - It was very quiet and relaxing. Breakfast is super good. Francesca was very kind to us and helped with recommendations and also providing flexibility. The place is beautiful.

Accueil très sympathique et à l’écoute.
La chambre est jolie avec des voûtes en pierre. Odeur d’humidité avec les pierres dans la salle de bain et pas d’ouverture.
- Maria (9/5): Fantastica struttura nel cuore del centro storico di Lecce - Struttura bellissima, accogliente, moderna, posizione strategica, personale disponibile Nulla
- Azra (10/5): - Excellent spot in historic lecce. Wonderful family run spot. Clean. Exceptional service. Francesca was lovely.
- Duvigneau (10/5): - Nous avons réservé à la dernière minute et avons été accueillis avec beaucoup de chaleur et tout le confort nécessaire.
Tout le personnel était absolument adorable, sans oublier le beau chien qui a rendu le séjour encore plus agréable 😉 !
Le petit-déjeuner était excellent, varié et copieux.
- Alfonso (9/5): -
- Maccianti (10/5): Soggiorno incantevole e rilassante - La struttura è dotata di una corte incantevole talmente silenziosa da farti dimenticare di essere in centro città. La camera è spaziosa, pulitissima e arredata moderatamente con richiami alla tradizione. Colazione ricca e tipica servita da Francesca, l’oste che offre un’accoglienza calorosa con la sua gentilezza e disponibilità, e il suo golden Honey addolcisce ancora di più l’esperienza
- Jack (10/5): A great spot in the heart of Lecce. - We had a lovely stay. Our host was very helpful with booking restaurants and taxi services for us. A clean and comfortable room and bed in a great location. Highly recommend!
- Guest (9/5): -
- Vicent (10/5): Totalmente recomendable - La habitación muy bonita, con muy buen interiorismo. Cama y baño muy cómodos. El desayuno muy bueno y variado (salado y dulce).

Francesca est à l’écoute et super serviable. Elle a donné de bons conseils. Rien
- Natasha (10/5): -
- Simone (10/5): Charming and Modern Stay in the Heart of Lecce - B&B Kabala is a beautiful blend of modern design and classic Lecce architecture. The space is stylish, comfortable, and full of character. Francesca, the host, was an absolute pleasure—friendly, welcoming, and full of helpful local tips. The location is perfect for exploring this stunning city. Highly recommend for a unique and relaxing stay in Lecce!
- Emily (10/5): Wow wow WOW!! Kabala was absolutely STUNNING!! A perfectly modernized room redone from the traditional architecture of L - Wow wow WOW!! Kabala was absolutely STUNNING!! A perfectly modernized room redone from the traditional architecture of Lecce. Truly one of my favorite B&B’s I’ve ever stayed at. Impeccably clean, the best location in Lecce—you are just steps from all the best restaurants and attractions—yet the property is somehow blissfully quiet and peaceful. There are just a few rooms (3, I believe I remember) and you just feel like you have your very own palazzo in Lecce! A highly unique experience I will NEVER forget😍
And the host, Franchesca, is an absolute angel of a human being! Deeply kind and attentive. She also went above and beyond to help me on my way there when I was having the travel day from hell from Rome. Franchesca provided so much comfort and support via WhatsApp and as soon as I arrived, she made sure I felt right at home! She is just the best! And I got to meet her father and hear more about the history of the property and it was such a beautiful, magical moment that made my trip to Lecce extra special.
Oh, and the breakfast is absolutely divine!
THANK YOU Franchesca and B&B Kabala for making my stay in Lecce so magical! I don’t think there could possibly be a better place to stay in Lecce.💓 Nothing! Loved everything!

- Bassam (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing location in the heart of Lecce with parking on the street only about 5 minutes away (I would recommend downloading the EasyPark app to update your parking without having to walk there). Federica is a great host and the breakfast is hefty. The rooms are exactly as pictured in a stylish, old building with a beautiful garden.

- Alisa (10/5): Traveling back in time, gorgeous hotel - Such a beautiful B&B, looks like a small boutique hotel, hidden but in the heart of the old town, the building looks like a medieval castle, very authentic experience, safe and quite, with the most amazing view on the garden.
- LZ (8/5): - We absolutely loved Angela's entire family! Everyone was thoughtful, insightful and helpful on our questions, needs and concerns. They're located at a convenient spot in town and everything is within walking distance once you've settled down. Although our stay was short (3 nights), we had the pleasure of experiencing Angela's unique spin on serving her guests a variety of breakfast selections.
I do have tips on ways to elevate Kabala Bed & Breakfast experience:
1. The shower - Often floods when the water turns on. The puddle that originally formed inside the bathroom creates a trail of water into the living space. Provide ticker linens to soak up excess water to keep feet dry.
2. Find a way to keep the ants out of rooms! The ants were crawling in my luggage, in my purse, in the bathroom, on my clothes and on ME. One of the ants went as far as biting me... at the end of our stay, I was paranoid over the thought of ants walking on my skin.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Friendly, family-managed oasis in Lecce - Friendly and helpful family-managed property; fresh, local breakfast items, some baked by the owner; cool rooms with stone walls and vaulted ceiling, natural wood furnishings. Excellent location in the historic center, with easy access to everything within and without. Near parks, monuments, shopping district, laundromats (one self-serve, one drop-off), groceries, even snack vending machine kiosks. Bar/cafes, restaurants, and gelateria just around the corner. Not too far from the train station, but if you're dragging around big bags you'll need a taxi. Fifteen minute walk for those carrying just a light bag. Lecce Train Station has frequent departures to points north, as well as to Otranto and Gallipoli to the south. I had a great, relaxing stay at Kabala.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - La hauteur sous plafond est exceptionnelle, nous avons l'impression d'être dans un château. Le calme impressionnant. Et la gentillesse du personnels est super.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautifully designed modern rooms with quiet courtyard space. Family-owned property in historic center with bountiful breakfast.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful and clean Hotel/B&B. Lovely Caring owners. Really enjoyed our stay there. Loved how clean the bathroom was! Also the location is very very central! It was much better than 4star hotels we stayed at in Rome! Highly recommended.
