The Patria Palace is a beautiful hotel with an exceptional location. Our room was elegant and the view of the Baroque Basilica of Santa Croce from our window was incredible!! I loved the tasteful marble bathroom.... So stunning yet functional....We had a wonderful stay and the staff added to our comfort with their friendly kind manner....always helpful. The breakfast was excellent with an impressive array of delicious food. The omelet I ordered was so delicious.. I would 100% recommend this small elegant Palazzo hotel for visiting Lecce and the surrounding area.

Mohammed United Kingdom

We loved the location. It is located inside the ZTL (limited traffic area, only locals with permits usually allowed to drive in), but the hotel arranged everything to help us drive in and park. They sent very specific directions to help us find the hotel. The location is excellent, and the hotel is very very nice. We loved the balcony view, clean room, and friendly service.
