La Fiermontina Palazzo Bozzi Corso Hotel

The Bozzi Corso is one of the finest properties we have ever experienced, only to be exceeded by its amazing staff! The hotel is located on one of the main streets in Lecce, but once we entered the private courtyard, it was like being in a different world with artwork scattered throughout the property. The staff greeted us on arrival and made us feel like family during our entire visit . Our room was spacious and comfortable with a large bathroom that was well lighted ( apparently something important to my wife) Breakfast in the garden was a morning treat, with fresh fruit, local pastries, and excellent cappuccino by Iman. The beautiful rooftop bar was an afternoon ritual with mixologist Aldo and his creative cocktails. Another enhancement to staying at Bozzi Corso is access to the other La Fiermontina properties located a few minutes easy walk. Dinner at their Zephyr restaurant, in the garden among the ancient olive and citrus trees, was a special experience. Although I'm not usually interested in art museums, I highly recommend taking advantage of the private tour... an incredible story. From either property, old town Lecce is easily walkable with numerous bars, restaurants and ample shopping. The staff arranged a private walking tour for us, and our guide, Gabriella, was a real expert on the city history and culture. Another special experience arranged by the staff was a cooking class by Livio, a fun and educational hands-on cooking and eating afternoon. Without exception, every staff member happily provided excellent service, with Sarah being the true ambassador of the property and Lecce. The best hotel experience in Lecce!

There is nothing special to say about the rooftop bar. Yes, it has a view but not spectacular. The only thing that was spectacular was the price of a cocktail at 25 Euro each. The entrance to the building is magnificent but you can just see that from the street.

A gracious owner and host welcomed us to her special palacio. The staff were attentive, offered knowledgeable information and ensured our dining was to our satisfaction. They offer additional services with their sister property An enjoyable Italian experience

Beautiful historic building with thoughtful modern interiors. Absolutely lovely.
