Tucked inside the historic Palazzo Tamborrino, this apartment puts you a few steps from Lecce's pedestrian shopping streets and the grand piazzas that define the city's Baroque heart. The suite overlooks a quiet internal courtyard, so the buzz of the city stays at a comfortable distance – and blackout curtains mean you'll sleep well after a day of exploring Roman ruins and ornate church facades. A premium artisan mattress and a dedicated work desk make it equally suited to business travel, and lift access adds a practical ease that's easy to appreciate at the end of a long day.
