Palazzo Dei Dondoli

It would be a good place to stay if you visit Lecce old town.It takes 15mins to walk to train station,and 10mins to old town.Nice breakfast and big size bed..

We stayed at the Palazzo for three nights, it was a great base to explore Puglia. It was also an easy 4 min walk to the old town of Lecce. We had a car and there was plenty of free street parking near the Palazzo. The Palazzo is a little hard to find at first as it just has a plaque on the wall beside the front door. The staff were very friendly and explained everything about the Palazzo and also things to do and see in Lecce. They were very patient and answered all our questions. Our room was up three flights of stairs but luckily they had installed a small lift so we were able to send the bags up the stairs and we walked. Our room was large with a kitchen, eating area, separate daybed area as well as a large bedroom and bathroom. We had lots of French doors on to a balcony so we could open the doors at night and catch a breeze. It did have air conditioning. The room was very spacious and comfortable. I always think beds in Italian hotels look so uncomfortable as they have quite a small hard looking mattress but when you lie in them they are very comfortable. The breakfast was served in a lovely room on the ground floor, there were plenty of options. Lots of sweet treats, the pasticciotto was divine….make sure you try it if you go to Lecce. The only thing that could be improved at breakfast is perhaps a toaster and maybe poached eggs. I heard a few people ask for them and I would have loved to have some as well. Not a deal breaker, just a suggestion. We had a great stay here and would highly recommend it.

Beautiful, Comfortable and Convenient Our stay (Nov 2023) was amazing. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The room was also spacious, comfortable and just a block away from the cereal historic district.
