The city of Lecce is known for its Baroque architecture and historic monuments. It was founded by the Romans in the third century BC and later became a significant hub during the Middle Ages. Despite being relatively small, it is considered one of the most interesting and beautiful cities in Italy. Lecce has undergone a huge amount of restoration. The majority of ancient buildings and streets are very well preserved. As is the Pollicastro Boutique Hotel.
Throughout its existence, this elegant and refined hotel has been lovingly restored and maintained, preserving its traditional charm while adding all the necessary modern comforts. Today, the restored palace stands proud as a symbol of old-world Italian luxury — with stunning original frescoes adorning its walls and spacious light-filled rooms looking out over the surrounding cityscape.
