We are a Canadian couple mid-fifties and well-travelled. This was our first time in Lecce. We found the hotel & staff to be exceptional. The Leccese people in general have a generous and kind spirit but this quaint hotel went above & beyond. The very spacious rooms were a welcome surprise, cleanliness, amenities, perfectly located and attentive staff. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice experience in the historical center of Lecce. We will definitely be back !

The most wonderful find with fabulous staff! Central to everything, delicious breakfast with so many options (incl. Homemade cakes and bread!), lovely bright spacious rooms too.

We had a wonderful stay at this charming bed and breakfast in Lecce. The location is absolutely perfect, just steps from the historic center and surrounded by excellent restaurants. What truly made the experience special was the outstanding hospitality of Serena and Paola. Their warmth and attention to detail were exceptional. The rooms were spotless, and breakfast each morning was a delight, with thoughtful options for allergies. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Puglia and looking for comfort, convenience, and heartfelt service.

Staying at Casa Mamma Elvira's was like staying with a great friend. From the moment we checked in, we were greeted with such friendly reception. The room was spacious and clean with a nice cool air conditioning. It is the perfect location to get to all of the major attractions in the city. Parking is difficult, and I'd suggest just right away parking in the overnight lot nearby. It is managed with security, so you do not have to worry about your car. The breakfast was such a delight! Not only was the food delicious, they were genuinely happy to serve us and we were able to have wonderful conversation. This is a hotel that knows true hospitality!
