This is a B&B in an historic and gorgeous palazzo that is still owned by the original nobile family. The host is the lovely, gracious owner who is very knowledgeable about the history of Lecce and also makes delicious cakes! A truly wonderful and unique quiet setting. Grazie per l’ospitalità!

You won't have many opportunities to stay in a 500 year old palazzo, so here's your near unique opportunity in terms of the property and your hostess. The stay will be a standout of your trip. For parking (in the courtyard), it's best to have a small car.

First, the pros. The location can’t be beat. The B&B is in a beautiful old palazzo with loads and loads of charm and quirky details. Then the cons. First, I do not think the website accurately represents the property. It refers to an “onsite spa” and a “pillow menu.” I saw no spa of any kind and was not offered a “pillow menu,” which I don’t really care about, but including this on the website as an amenity creates an impression and an expectation that the property does not meet. The website says the “front desk is open 9:30 am to 10:30 pm,” but no one was there when we arrived. After about 45 mins of frantic phone calls, someone showed up. We were asked to leave our credit card details with the owner’s friend, who was holding down the fort in her absence. I don’t think this was an appropriate suggestion, and I sent a bank transfer after I arrived home. The a/c remote control was confusing, but neither of the two people who were helping the owner in her absence could figure it out, and they just sort of shrugged. Luckily we figured it out on our own, but if we hadn’t, that would have been a real problem, as it was 45 celsius during our stay. Cleanliness could be better. Our room had a beautiful terrace, but the floor and furniture were quite dusty. The bathroom also needs a deep cleaning, as there was a bit of mold, and even a bit of green algae, in the shower stall. So, while this old palazzo is indisputably charming, the charm, for us, did not compensate for the problems.

Highly recommend

Isabella was an absolute delight and her place was perfect for our trip. The location cannot be beaten and the very private room was very quiet considering you are right in the centre of town. The bed was extremely comfortable, beautiful room and very easy to explore the city from. She was a perfect host, her home is beautiful (totally unique) and we were well looked after the whole time we were there. Overall, I'd really recommend staying at the Palazzo!

This is a great palazzo in the heart of Lecce. Parking was a bit of a trouble due to the courtyard being full of other guests cars, but we made it work. The home is a like staying in a museum and very charming with updated bathroom renovations. Would highly recommend.

The house is lovely and the owners couldn't be more accommodating. Great location for exploring the historic center. The parking for me was challenging. The space was inside a very narrow entry, which you had to back into. My rental car did not have a back-up camera so this simply wasn't possible for me. So long as you are ok with backing into a very narrow space, it shouldn't be a problem. I just wish I had understood this ahead of time. Otherwise, Lecce is charming.

Always a joy.

This was our third visit and it is always a joy to stay at Palazzo Bernardini which is in a great location. The building is steeped in history which the owner Isabella is happy to share with you. Nothing is too much trouble for the team and the shared breakfast experience is great fun. My only improvement suggestion would be to upgrade the shower in the rooms to an easier to use more efficient system.
