Reviews of Azzurretta Guest House

This is a little gem. The manager Tullio is SO welcoming and informative about Lecce and the Puglia region (very useful map with top places to see and suggested itineraries). We also had a mishap with our keys and Tullio helped us solve the problem immediately. Gorgeous breakfast on the roof terrace lets you mingle with other guests and share travel stories. The guest house is smack bang in the middle of the historic centre, around the corner from Chiesa di San Matteo and Chiesa Santa Chiara. The Duomo is about 3 minutes walk away (not to be missed). There is no parking in the old town of Lecce so you have to find street parking in the surrounding city streets (make sure you have change!!) but again Tullio was able to advise on good options and we found a space only 5 minutes walk from the guest house.

The facility, staff and location. This historical building is grand and walking distance from historical and architectural buildings as well as many many bistros, restaurants and bars.

Nothing

The room was spacious & the facilities were great, everything we needed. Location was perfect, in the old town, and within walking distance to station, sites and restaurants. Tullio & his staff were so welcoming & helpful. Breakfast was included & it was delicious!

One of the neatest places we've ever stayed! Perfect location in the middle of the old downtown. We loved sunsets on the rooftop terrace!

Beautiful location in the heart of old Lecce. Would stay here again

Julio and his staff were very friendly and welcoming. The location was fantastic, and the breakfast on the rooftop was amazing.

It was a little light in the morning due to thin curtains in the room where our children slept, and the noise from the courtyard carried as guests returned from dinner. Having said this, a lot of this is the nature of the historic building.

Great b&b! The owner was super nice and helpful! Tasty breakfast on the rooftop, large room. I recommend it.

An incredible 600 year old building right in the historical centre. The host was very helpful, provided lovely wine on arrival, a superb organic breakfast on the rooftop. Just lovely!

In a great location and the rooftop was a lovely place to eat breakfast and socialise

In our room, one side of the bed was against the wall - which makes it difficult getting in and out at night

Location was fantastic. Tullio is a truly wonderful man. Make sure you take a day trip with him. Really knowledgable and friendly. View from rooftop terrace is one of the best you'll find in Lecce

Everything was spot on

Excellent location; friendly hard-working staff; spacious room in front; and amazing terrace on top for breakfast and nighttime soirees.

Late breakfast starts make day activities rushed. Lots of keys to manipulate but it keeps the medieval hotel authentic.

Location. Breakfast on deck. Host happy to help.

Prefer an earlier breakfast. Keys are difficult

Great location. Delicious breakfasts. Attentive host who helped us with reservations and shared information about Lecce. Incredible accommodation in a former palace.

Good location for station and town. Staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to give us good information about local sights and restaurants. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace each morning was very relaxing, with delicious homemade local products. If you are looking for well priced accommodation in Lecce, this is perfect.

Nothing.

Central, with amazing host. Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful

Central to old town in historic building with roof terrace with wonderful views.

This B&B is located within the old town of Lecce and is close to everything. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and made out stay even better. I was sick during my stay and they took good care of me serving me breakfast in my room. But the breakfast was exceptional and the roof terrace here is definitely a big highlight.

There really wasn't anything to fault. We were extremely comfortable during our stay

Firstly our hosts were exceptional, they went beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay & saw the best of Lecce. Communication was excellent, before & during our stay. Lovely, lovely people. The B&B is in an excellent spot of Lecce, you are right in the middle of the old town, street parking about a 5min walk away and very reasonable. The accommodation is super clean, a good size, very comfortable bed, good shower, and super quiet day & night. Breakfast was served outside on the rustic roof terrace-perfect start to the day and what stunning views over the old town. This is absolutely THE best place to stay in Lecce with the most attentive hosts. We shall be recommending :)

There is NOTHING wrong here! All totally perfect:)

postion of guest house, close to everything yet quiet. we stayed in family room, very new contempoary decor. highly recommended.

stairs and roof terrace needs attention.

Tullio was very kind and welcoming, we loved the guest house! Beautiful room, Very cosy, spacious and clean, very nice old building with terrace. The bed was very comfortable. Excellent location. We only stayed one night but wished we had longer. Felt very homely, we were treated very well.

Nothing

Host amazing! Best ever!!

Little noisy outside in evenings but that is the nature of the location.

This list is going to be long as we LOVED our stay here! It's in a charming 15th-century building, owned by the same family for more than 150 years. We received a warm welcome from the owner Tulio, who's a real character! He's a font of information not only about Lece but all of Bari, he loves to talk (so do we) and he's dedicated to making your stay memorable. Location? Walking distance to everything in the historic part of Lecce. The room was one of the largest we've stayed in, with ample desk and shelf space. Bathroom was small but well-appointed. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was more than ample, and featured many fresh and delicious organic and natural food products. (And the espresso and cappuccino were great.) The young staffer who served us was lovely. The winch and bag they use to get your luggage up three flights was amazing. But all in all it was our host Tulio who made this a truly memorable experience!

We should have stayed two nights, not one!

Lovely place in the old city. The host is very helpful and made it easy to find the place and provided lots of information. The b&b is on the 2nd floor without an elevator. The room was spacious, and breakfast on the rooftop terrace was a great touch! While the building is on a very small and quiet side street, there's a bar nearby, and on weekend nights, there was noise till early morning hours. If you are traveling by car you must park outside the old city at street parking, which can be a bit difficult to find on a weekend.
