Reviews of Grand Hotel Di Lecce 4 stars

Beautiful historic hotel in very good location only one block from the train station and 2 from the edge of the old center. There is a grand entrance with beautiful flowers, a pool, and an excellent rich breakfast with a choice of many local foods . My room was amazing: unusually large, quiet, and very comfortable with great light and classical furnishings.

The room was spacious and extremely comfortable. The pool and green surrounds very relaxing with bar service. Breakfast was varied and enjoyed either inside or outside.5 minute walk to the old town with its wonderful architecture which came alive in the evening with many restaurants and bars. Fabulous location, old town easily walkable with numerous attractions including piazzas and amphitheatre.

There was nothing we didn't like.

The room was spacious and clean. The air condition unit was very efficient which is quite rare in ourdays in hotels. The hotel was located 1 minute walk from the train station and the FSE bus stop (via don bosco) where replacement rail buses depart to other destinations.

The window was not locked properly allowing some gap where noise could pass through it. I notified the reception and they claimed that they will fix it. I hope they will.

Location

Nothing

Great location, the decor was nice and a good size for a city hotel. Everyone was friendly.

The only negative was the shower experience as both the pressure and temperature fluctuated wildly whilst showering throughout our stay.

Location, close to station and old town

Plumbing is terrible. Hot/cold/hot/cold……… shower. Clogged drains. Breakfast was very bad with scrambled eggs that looked days old and the worst coffee specially made

The hotel has had a fabulous revamp, our room had huge high ceilings and was very spacious and clean. Its very close to the station and the old town is within walking distance. The staff were very welcoming and our room was ready which was very appreciated.

The hotel car park had never a free space which was very annoying, we weren't offered any explanation or told about it before hand, the staff were vague, and said it was fully booked for days in advance and when asked if we could book/reserve a space she said that reserving spaces wasn't allowed which contradicted what they said , we asked if we could drive to the car park and check for ourselves but were told no, which was suspicious, they said they could see on the cameras that it was full but wouldn't tell us where it was situated, there are some free spaces on one of the side streets but if it's free then the space is typically gone/unavailable. However to pay for outside parking in the blue spaces doesn't cost the earth. Perhaps the carpark is just for staff which is fine. But be transparent and don't advertise free parking on the site if its always suspiciously full and without access. Also there is only one plug in the room which our adapter could fit into, the rest of the plugs were not suited to adapter usage.

emlowees were very nice, the hotel was good. however we had to change the room because of dirty..no service on the swimming pool and the garden is not well treated

Terrific staff, very cool pool

Location

Cockroach in the lift

The room was very pretty and the hotel was in a nice neighborhood, right by the train station and close to a lot of the places we wanted to see.

Our bed was full of ants, we could barely sleep. Fortunately we only stayed for a night! I emailed a complaint the hotel management to get my money back, and the staff behind the desk tried contacting them as well. It’s been more than two weeks and I haven’t heard back from them at all. I’ve also contacted the hotel staff and asked them to call the management, still haven’t gotten my money back. This was not the standard I payed for! Very disappointed.

Lovely traditional Italian hotel in an excellent location right beside the train station and only a 7 minute walk to the beginning of the old town of Lecce. The breakfast was good - cakes lovely- - pool very much appreciated after a morning of sightseeing - staff very friendly and helpful but clearly understaffed and overworked at times.

The corridors where the bedrooms were situated were very dark and dismal but in fairness there are signs of them being renovated. The carpets in the bedrooms need replacing - more fresh fruit at breakfast. The area around the beautiful pool needs a good sweeping. Having said all that I would return to Grand Hotel Lecce especially for its location.
