Loved the renovation of the building! Old historical tobacco factory turned into a modern hotel. Clean, comfortable, excellent location, parking for the car just outside the window. One night wasn't enough.

The place is incredible, the team’s welcome is lovely, and we feel right at home. The historic Renaissance palazzo is stunning. The room is spacious and very beautiful, and the place is very quiet even though it’s located on the pedestrian street. We enjoyed the garden to read and relax, the dinner was excellent — I highly recommend it — and the breakfast was delicious. We will be back, thank you.

You couldn’t ask for a better location - very close to the historic center and a big car park which is very convenient. The staff is very kind, polite and super helpful - they have sent us the exact location to the main entrance of the hotel prior the arrival to facilitate the check in. Breakfast is truly exceptional - there is a wide selection, everything is fresh and at really good quality. Later check out was not an issue either. Highly recommended!

FAQs about hotels in Salento

A Magic Southern Jewel

Comprising the south part of Italy’s Region of Puglia, the Salento peninsula is located in the ‘heel’ of the Italian ‘boot’. With an unusual and beautiful landscape, it also has traditions shaped by explorers and invaders from a variety of cultures that reached its coasts.

If Salento is a jewel, the main piece is definitely the city of Lecce. Its walled historic centre is greatly admired for the uniqueness of its Baroque style. It also has a Roman theatre and a Greek amphitheatre, both still in use. Try a hotel in Lecce’s old town and go back in time!

Blessed with the waters from the Ionian and the Adriatic seas, its rocky coves and small sandy inlets contrast with the light blue waters. Popular beach hotels in Puglia’s Salento region are located near the Alimini Lakes and the Portoselvaggio Bay.

Other important coastal areas are Porto Cesareo, Torre dell'Orso, Santa Maria di Leuca and Santa Cesarea Terme. Gallipoli and Otranto deserve a visit not only for their beaches, but also because of their beautiful historic centres, mostly shaped during the Aragonese domination of the area.

    It was so lovely everything being single storey. Such a sense of space and escape. The food was so great. Some of the buffet can be a bit underwhelming, but when you figure out which of the counters to go to for the best food, you're on to a winner. The speciality stall at lunch was incredible. The apertivo times were so good. Such amazing variety. And to cook pasta on mass and still be brilliantly at dente is super impressive. The flavours were amazing, the olive oil available for the tables was so delicious. The staff were all so lovely and accommodating. The kids club and the entertainment activities were so much fun. The beach is small but paradise. The main pool is amazing. Always more than enough sunbeds and umbrellas, and an excellent temperature.

The people, especially the host, Adriano, were extremely kind, warm and welcoming, it was hard to leave. The property is stunning, a dreamy place with history, the rooms we saw (we had to switch at some point) were very classy and beautiful. The perfect place to charge batteries, also, incredible food.

    Breakfast is divine. A healthy selection of fruit, yogurt, juices and the most inviting selection of pastries. I loved the grounds and patios - so beautifully decorated with large pottery urns overflowing with blossoms. I loved listening to the bees buzzing and the birds singing when I first wake up of a morning and seeing all the colourful blossoms - particularly the brilliant bougainvilleas.

    The city was charming. Too many churches to choose from, so we hand picked a few. Good and lovely restaurants and cafes. Tried and really liked Caffe leecese. A short car or train ride to a number of uncrowded beaches.

    Ostuni is a beautiful city located near so many other unique neighboring cities. The people were wonderful, helpful, and so many go above and beyond to understand your needs or questions. While staying in Ostuni, there was a really nice celebration for the city's patron saint, Saint Oronzo, that they had a parade for, and fun parties in the historic city center.

    Otranto city itself is not special for us and we had two BAD dinners there - imagine bad pizza in Italy! We much preferred the coastline and beaches in the surrounding area. Would not return to Otranto, will try Santa Maria di Leuca next time and do the coastal path and visit the western beaches.

    Brindisi is a good place to stay. There is a good selection of bars and restaurants and the waterside is very pleasant. It is an ideal base to explore Puglia as the transport links are good. The rail service to (for example) Lecce, Polignano a Mare is cheap, clean and comfortable.

    Nice beaches, plenty of fast food vendors, or dine-in restaurants if you prefer. Beaches were very clean, and locals very helpful. Prices were very reasonable too, with local shops providing local produce. For a real treat, try Cosimino Restaurant on Via Cosimo Albano; you can book a table overlooking the sea - its great food, and a fabulous atmosphere. It was not a noisy resort, in fact, we thought it was quiet, however, on weekends there was live music after dark. If you are planning a stay, Porto Cesareo is the perfect place to unwind and capture some Italian sunshine.

    We were completely satisfied with our stay in Taranto. The walk through the old town on the island was amazing. I am attaching a video of my works that I upload to my YouTube channel and specifically from southern Italy: ΣΚΥΛΛΑ! 🏰 SCILLA Calabria ⚫ ITALY⚫ by drone【4K】(Subtitles in many languages) ​​by #TravelFanDroneView https://youtu.be/31g7zqAHG6M?si=ffkw0ALZr5NSAu6H and in Sicily: Naxos Sicily!!!

    A truly beautiful place, so much to see and some great restaurants. The museums, churches, architecture all beautiful. I would say three days would be ideal, an excellent place for a short break. Traffic into the old town is restricted across the middle opf the day, which enhances the appeal.

    The water is something else! We could not get enough of it.

    The water is something else! We could not get enough of it. It is so clear, the color varies from emerald to turquoise blue, indescribable. Highly recommended, one of the best places in Italy for a seaside vacation. Delicious fresh seafood adds to a great experience. Pescheria 3.0 was a great place to visit for fresh seafood, also Orchidea Marina or Da Mimi (reservations are highly recommended). We enjoyed the beach at Salinas within a 10-min drive from Torre Lapillo.

    Tenuta Cursano is a wonderful place to stay.

    Tenuta Cursano is a wonderful place to stay. Silvia and Marcello make you feel completely at home. They are very hospitable and have worked hard over the past few years to convert a farm into a beautiful vacation home. We had a wonderful vacation and were able to take fun trips to cities and the coast from here.
