Historical stay in Lecce
Experience a slice of Italian luxury at Risorgimento Resort. You’ll be staying in a 15th century mansion, right in the heart of Old Town Lecce, perfect for soaking up the culture on offer.
During your stay you’ll be just a few steps from the ruins of the Roman Amphitheatre and the Piazza Sant’Oronzo, with its amazing Baroque architecture and ornate mosaics. A 5-minute stroll will take you to another of Lecce’s elaborate squares, Piazza del Duomo, where you’ll find Lecce Cathedral and the Campanile. Meander through the narrow streets and discover cafés serving signature Leccese pastries and quirky shops selling crafts and ceramics. Look for papier-mache art – cartapesta – which is the city’s signature. Take a class in the craft or visit the papier-mache museum at Lecce Castle, about a 5-minute stroll from the hotel.
If R&R is on the agenda, you’ll love it at Risorgimento Resort. The hotel spa has everything you need to unwind. Treat yourself to an indulgent massage or relax in a calming Turkish bath. If keeping fit while you’re away is a must, there’s a fitness area on-site, too.
Expect to be well-fed here. The hotel offers a continental buffet breakfast, and the gourmet restaurant serves classic Italian cooking. Visit in the summer and you can enjoy a meal in the roof garden, with views of the cathedral bell tower. If you fancy sampling what other culinary delights Lecce has to offer, you’ll have plenty of choice within a stone’s throw of the hotel. Get into the local spirit by taking a passeggiata – a leisurely pre-dinner stroll through the streets.
