A beautiful old hotel with big rooms and a very good location. Nice and friendly staff and a perfect breakfast. We had a very good time and would love to come back.
Great location and right near the train station.
The rooms are huge but make sure to as for a room with hardwood flooring, because the carpet os old and stained. Staff were great!
Excellent hotel. Right by the railway station but only about five/six minutes’ walk to the Centro Storico. Very quiet. Big and spacious rooms. Staff very polite and helpful. Big selection for breakfast. Pool and seating area outside ideal for a swim or just to sit and read. Absolutely recommended.
Great location when arriving by train. Excellent swimming pool.

Very pretty hotel, incredibly nice and accommodating staff. The location was great. My friends and I were able to comfortably walk around most of Lecce and make it home without a problem.
This facility is well located and at one time had its charm. However, it is in need of capital to upgrade and refurbish.
Staff not trained in hospitality and service.
Amenities are none to speak of inclusive WiFi, Tv, and room amenities.
It's a great hotel and probably only verys convenient location. But other than that just avoid. Staff is amazing and nice.

Excellent breakfast with a wide variety of food and drinks. I enjoyed the property because it is unique. In its glory days this was a fine place. Today it is still good but needs a few updates. It’s worth the price and the location near the train station is very helpful.

Very well situated hotel with private parking and an outdoor pool. Rooms were comfortable with all mod cons including safe and kettle. The grandeur is somewhat faded - it could do with some refurbishment particularly in the common areas, but still a pleasant place to stay./
This is not a Grand hotel in the sense of the Danieli or Excelsior, however, that is probably because they choose not to have a restaurant, even though they put out a sumptuous breakfast and have a commercial kitchen and plenty of staff. Our room had filthy old green carpeting, but we noticed in the long hallway that some rooms have modern wood flooring, which is much more sanitary I don't know why we weren't given the upgrade since we are hotel gold members. The only other issue was the parking which we tried to reserve well in advance, but was unavailable, which was disappointing since we have a brand new Mercedes-Benz . The staff was very pleasant and the bathroom was spacious and had the best shower of our trip. Overall, it was good value for the money and it's probably one of the better hotels in Lecce.
Retro elegance
So comfortable with commodious bathroom, amazing pool and 20th century decor
Please don’t let revolving taste allow you to miss this genuinely refreshing experience
Nice clean room. Would have liked more coat hangers as lovely big wardrobe but only three hangers.

Checking with Hotel.com, the hotel was supposed to have an onsite parking. Upon arrival we were told all parking spots were taken, so we had to find a parking spot on the street. The hotel itself was very dated with dirty carpets. The shower door was missing and fridge was not working. There was a big step right by entrance, my hunand tripped over carrying the luggages and hurt his leg. The room had a very strong odor, smelling like Lysol. The bedding had a different strong perfumed smell which was not pleasant. On the plus side, the room was large with a large bathoom and closet and breakfast was really great.
The unique selling point of this property is its closeness to the central train station. Links to most of the towns between Lecce and Bari and beyond are easy and fairly quick. In its former glory, as the railway hotel, this would have been the go-to accommodation for many Travellers and an overnight stay a normal thing to do. The opulence of the Grand Hotel at Lecce would have wowed the guests and there would have been a constant topping and doing of waiters and staff. There would have been a proper restaurant and kitchen serving up nice meals with local produce and the guests would have gone to bed without ever having to leave the hotel. Maybe this situation prevailed even beyond 2016 when the hotel was still listed in the Michelin Red Guide. Now, however, after the ravages of COVID and the various lockdowns that followed, the kitchen only operates for breakfast and the restaurant is a mere memory. Who knows? Maybe the restaurant will come back. It would make a lot of sense in this grand edifice.
Breakfast was incredible and plentiful. Fresh fruit and vegetables with Salento products. Room was spacious but a bit outdated. However that is the style of the hotel. We could not use the pool due to bad weather but the pool area seemed nice.
