Beautiful hotel. Amazing staff, very clean but the rooms need to be updated.

On a beautiful square overlooking the baroque church of Santa Chiara, the hotel exudes old world charm. Our family room had a queen sized bed and a loft with a large bed for total privacy. A nice balcony was on the square/park.

Wonderful staff, beautiful and clean hotel, great rooftop, centrally located.

Great location. Room is lovely! Property should pay more attention to the towels. They must be renewed. The shower stall was broken. Other than that the hotel is a great option. Would stay again.

Hotel Santa Chiara is in an excellent location near the main square. Breakfast in the rooftop was superb. I would return.
Gerard, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent location. Right in the center of the old town. The negatives are that it advertises a roof top jacuzzi and bar. There is no bar and you are not allowed use the Jacuzzi. It is only for show. It also says gym, hot tub and pool. You have to pay extra to use them. Other than that, an excellent hotel, decent enough breakfast, with lovely pleasant staff

Located right in the heart of the city, all walking distance. Nice rooms, parking off premises but just 7-10 min pleasant walk.

Lovely hotel in historic section. Friendly staff. Very well kept.
richard, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. Staff were great, the facilities and standard of upkeep excellent, and a really comfortable bed. Breakfast offered a generous selection of continental style food. The hotel is right in the middle of Lecce 's historic district, my room window overlooking one of the top 5 sights of the city. Just 15 minute walk from the rail station. Just about a perfect place to stay in what quickly became one of my top 10 European cities.

We had an amazing stay at the hotel. It was centrally located and just right beside Sta. Chiara church. We had everything we needed and Roberto made sure that we had a wonderful stay. It was a nice Christmas in Lecce. Thank you Roberto!

6/10 Good

Great location and nice looking hotel and the staff were pleasant. The breakfast was served on the roof terrace but wasn't very exciting. The room was a good size with a skylight but was bright and airy. However there was some heavy rain and the ceiling leaked and there was water over the floor. When I mentioned this, I got the impression they blamed me! The toiletries in the bathroom were very poor, just a couple of sachets (I bring my own so not an issue for me) The minibar wasn't very well stocked and the bar didn't appear to be open. No tea or coffee making facilities in the room (I have been in lower starred hotels in Italy that provide much more) Lastly I have never seen a hotel charge for slippers or extra towels! Overall it's a decent enough hotel but the finer details are missing

5 star experience! Parking a nightmare in the area, so wonderful that this hotel provides parking... They also did a beautiful job on my laundry and the staff is all very accommodating!
Gail, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel in the heart of Lecce, on a small square across from the baroque church the hotel is named after. Large and fancy lobby. Room basic but reasonable size for Europe. Decent sized bathroom with good rain shower. Internet worked well, but would have liked a bigger work desk. Breakfast room on 4th floor, with view over nearby square and streets. Solid choice of mainly cold (other than eggs and bacon) items.
Paul, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very good. The only issue was that our room was below the rooftop breakfast room so we could hear in the morning the chairs being dragged around.
Zeljka, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Location excellent. Parking very convenient, staff friendly and helpful. Room was pretty but shower small and doors were not working properly. When we reported, it was not fixed during our stay. Also the hotel advertised a spa and jaccuzzi on 4th floor that were not operating.
Jacob, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

All good.
Lucy, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff were very helpful and very friendly and always available. The shower in our room was very old and not cleaned well due to years of buildup (likely). I was disappointed that although there is a pool and a hot tub, neither were opened and you had to book the spa to be able to use the pool. That information was not clear at the time of booking. The hotel was in a perfect location, near everything and the room was spacious and comfortable.
Lisa, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great Location

The Hotel is in a perfect spot. The common areas are really nicely done, including lobby and breakfast area. Breakfast was included and was great. Only issue is the rooms are dated and a bit musty. The air conditioning is OK, not great. Packets of shampoo and shower gel were provided but was kind of amateurish. The staff is really very great and really help with any concern. All were super nice. Even let us change room as the first one was too musty.
Paolo, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

One of the reasons we came back was the parking service and they didn't have it available but no one told us anything at booking! Things were braking down in the tmroo. Like toilet paper holder outlet covers, etc...
Ismael, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We arrived in late morning. Left our bags at reception--when we returned, they were already in our room. The Zona Traffico Limitada limits automobile access times to the hotel, but you just want to take your car to a parking area (after 2 pm, their garage will send a valet for your car; we used Parkejoo, an underground garage, until then). Nice breakfast. No need for a hotel restaurant or bar, plenty of choices nearby. Room was quite attractive with great woodwork and curtains--fitting into the Baroque spirit of the city.
Jonathan, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This hotel sucks

Do not believe this hotel when they say they have parking. They do not and told me so when I arrived with my bags. Very unhelpful. Simply shrugged shoulders and did little to help. To be fair the city of Lecce is almost impossible for cars so little surprise they don’t allow them into the centre. Had I known, had the hotel actually said something beforehand, I could have made a different decision. Maybe still stay but accept what was to happen. Or not to stay and find somewhere else that could better accommodate a car. We are on a road trip so the car aspect is very important. That the hotel did nothing to assist is unacceptable. The fact that the hotel is fine, location great, city lovely is sadly beside the point. The hotel management sucks. Their attitude ruined our stay. I am very very disappointed.
Mark, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible. 2,5 stars at the most

Terrible experience. The website said “parking available” (15 euro). Street parking available. Arriving I was told that THER WAS NO PARKING, even on the street. There was a parking lot 800m away (25 euro!). At the room there WAS NO WINDOW, just a skylight in the ceiling that opened about 5 centimeters, so no ventilation. it was 17 to 20 degrees outside, but 27 degrees inside the room ALL THE TIME. The air conditioning WASN'T WORKING. At the reception I was told "as it was cold, only the HEATING was on. And that they couldn't turn on the air conditioning and the heating at the same time because it was just one system for the whole hotel. !!!! I asked for another room and there wasn't one. My wife had to sleep covered in a wet towel to withstand the heat in the room. It's worth mentioning that the staff were not at all welcoming and when I complained about these absurdities I was told very unwillingly that I should write to the manager. In addition, the room's electronic password safe was broken. In the bathroom, soap and shampoo came in small sachets and not in bottles as is normal in 3-star hotels in Italy. I had to open 5 sachets of soap plus 5 of shampoo for each shower. RIDICULOUS. Breakfast was reasonable but well below the average for 3-star hotels around here. Finally, the slippers, which in any self-respecting hotel or B&B in Italy are offered as a courtesy, were charged 5 euros. A hotel which claims to be 4-star when it should have a maximum of 2.5.
