Tivoli Palazzo 1880 Lecce Hotel

In the old centre of Lecce, the Risorgimento Resort, WorldHotels Elite in Lecce, Italy, is a refined hotel set in an 1880 palazzo, a short stroll from the cathedral square, with spacious rooms and suites, marble bathrooms, free Wi-Fi, and a roof garden looking out over the rooftops. Three restaurants serve everything from fine dining to easy meals, a spa and fitness centre offer a place to unwind, and modern conference rooms suit events. The roof terrace makes a memorable spot for a sunset drink high above the honey-coloured rooftops of the city. Lecce is the jewel of the Salento, a golden-stone city famous for its extravagant carved facades, often called the Florence of the south. Ornate churches and palaces crowd the Piazza del Duomo and its soaring bell tower, a Roman amphitheater sits half-buried in the main square, and lively lanes brim with wine bars, papier-mâché workshops, ice-cream parlours and pastry shops. Beyond the city, the Salento peninsula runs out between two seas, its coast lined with sea caves, white-sand coves and old fishing harbours, and the grand old towns of Puglia scattered across olive country. Secret gardens, craft studios, wine bars and warm evenings fill the lively old centre all around. - CIR: 075035A100021380, CIN: IT075035A100021380
