Grand Hotel di Lecce
Breakfast was incredible and plentiful. Fresh fruit and vegetables with Salento products. Room was spacious but a bit outdated. However that is the style of the hotel. We could not use the pool due to bad weather but the pool area seemed nice.

Borgo Egnazia
A truly world class hotel. All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The concierge staff in particular went above and beyond normal expectations. The property is very well situated to explore the many must see towns in Puglia. Would advise to rent a car
