Our space was like a palatial home, surrounded by a sumptuous garden. It was made warm and inviting by Luisa, our host. Who worked to discover what we really liked and then sought to provide it.

Incredible room, great breakfast selections, walkable and convenient, excellent hosts and a gorgeous property. The addition of space heaters (since apparently they can’t turn on the heat at this time of year) would have been nice as the days and evenings (and the room) were pretty chilly.

Elegant property with real history

This place is a fascinating step back in time. Yes the kitchen and bathroom are small but the furnishings and ornaments are to a standard rarely seen in Airbnb properties. Sitting out in the garden eating a pizza was a delight. The owner was extremely helpful and being able to bring the car onto the property off the street was so useful. Do take time to look at the mosaics, yes mosaics.

Great hotel

Just across the street from the old town of Lecce. Very walkable. Room is pretty large and comfortable. Free breakfast. Hosts are super great and loaned us a guide book, showed us best places to go see Lecce, and gave a great dinner recommendation. Beautiful garden and parking is secure. Only negatives that I have is the bed was not the most comfortable and the shower was small (though water pressure and temperature were great).

L'Orangerie is a delightful B&B run by its owner, Luisa, who has paid attention to every detail. It's a property dating back to 1871, with an orange grove and imperial staircase, where space is at a premium. Entering the B&B is like stepping from the modern world into an almost dreamlike one. My room was huge, with everything you need to have a good time. Breakfast is prepared on a table inside the room, with toast, homemade orange marmalade, and delicious local pastries. There are also yogurts and juices in the refrigerator. In my case, I parked my car on the property, subject to reservation. Any communication with Luisa must be done via WhatsApp, but it wasn't necessary in my case. I recommend this B&B if you're not the type who needs constant attention and consultations about everything. It's for independent travelers who prioritize silence, well-being, and a good location.

This property was superb in every way. The large bedroom/ sitting area, the well stocked kitchen. The complete cooking facilities, the wonderful large garden and places to sit in comfort. It was a peaceful, quiet sanctuary in the heart of the old city of Lecce and for an incredibly reasonable tariff. Impossible to give enough praise. The hosts were very helpful and serviced the rooms every day.

Perfect accommodation, good location.

We really enjoyed our three nights here. the building is beatutiful and the garden a peaceful place to relax. Room was huge and historic with everything we needed and a particularly comfortable bed. Location is good around 15 minutes walk from the station and close to all of our favourite restaurants. If you are feeling lazy the one over there road "203" is good and had an interesting menu. Overall as perfect a B&B experience as anyone could hope for.

We LOVED L’Orangerie de L’Epoque. It is beautiful. A real Palazzo. The high-ceiling rooms are full of elegant details: embroidered ultra-white towels and linens, amazing sunny views from the BEAUTIFUL inner courtyard a super yummy breakfast. But perhaps the best part is the warmth and friendliness of the owners & managers. Just one-of-a-kind accommodation that makes you feel both like a royal and a welcome family member.

On our trip to Italy, this was our favourite stay. It was close to the city Center (5-10 min walk) and feels quiet and private (with its own courtyard). There are great restaurants and cafes near by and the hosts provided us with fresh bakeries each morning. Then private courtyard was a great spot for brekkie. Can’t recommend this place enough.

Phenomenal stay

This was a phenomenal stay. The place is absolutely gorgeous, comfortable and clean. There is a small orange grove in the backyard, where our 5-y.o. son was safe to run and play by himself. Breakfast was great too. The place is cross the street from the city center of Lecce, also known as "the Florence of the South"—with good reason. Luisa has 4 rooms: we had the largest one, but she also has one (or two?) smaller ones that are equipped with a full kitchen (!); rooms can be connected for larger groups. We could park the car in their courtyard for the whole day for just 5 euros. I highly recommend this place.
