부동산 — Costa D'Oriente
The Costa D'Oriente is a straightforward three-star on a quiet side street just inside Lecce's old city walls. Its lobby feels more business-trim than boutique: tiled floors, a small reception desk, and a competent but cool front-desk clerk. The real asset is the rooftop terrace with views over the baroque skyline, and the free parking — a genuine rarity in central Lecce. Best for couples or solo travellers who want a clean, no-frills base, not a design statement.
Lecce 연대기
Lecce was founded by the Messapii before becoming a Roman colony (Lupiae) in the 3rd century BC. Its real architectural boom came under Spanish rule in the 16th–17th centuries, when local craftsmen sculpted the soft golden limestone into the exuberant, flower-like 'Lecce Baroque' that coats the historic centre. After centuries under the Kingdom of Naples and later a quiet agricultural role, the city reinvented itself as a tourist draw in the late 20th century, now balancing a university buzz with a reputation as the 'Florence of the South'. Its identity stays firmly tied to paper-mâché craft, olive oil, and strong coffee at half-century-old bars.
방문하기 가장 좋은 시간
Lecce 완전 가이드 →최고의 달
May and September: daytime highs around 24-28°C, little rain, and crowds thin enough to walk the main thoroughfares without queuing.
Peak / Festival Surge 근처 오락거리
July and August: temperatures push 32-36°C, and the city fills with Italian beach-goers and package tourists. Hotel rates jump 40-60% above shoulder season. The main driver is the summer holiday window; no single festival, but the July 'Sagra di Santa Oronzo' street fair adds to the crush.
Budget Shoulder 시즌
April, early June and October. April can still be cool (16°C) but has wildflowers and cheap rooms. October offers 22°C days and autumn olive harvests, with prices often 30% lower than summer peak.
날씨 & 포장
Lecce's summer humidity is deceptive — it feels hotter than the thermometer reads thanks to the trapped heat in the limestone streets. Pack only breathable linen or cotton; leave all synthetics at home, and bring a wide-brimmed hat and refillable water bottle.
City Briefing 근처 오락거리 — Lecce
- The city's central piazza, Piazza del Duomo, underwent a resurfacing of its flagstones in late 2024; the work is complete but expect occasional pedestrian-only routing around the cathedral entrance.
- A new direct bus service, 'SalentoLink', launched in May 2025, linking Lecce's train station to the main beaches (San Cataldo, Torre dell'Orso) every 30 minutes in summer, bypassing the rental-car queues.
- Seasonal note: the city often enforces a 'water saving ordinance' from late June through August, restricting garden watering and car washing; visitors are unaffected, but it signals the real dry heat.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Costa D'Oriente, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the third floor facing the internal courtyard. These rooms are furthest from the street and lift noise, and the third floor avoids overhead footfall from any rooftop terrace or upper corridors.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first floor facing the street. The address is on a main road in Lecce's historic centre, so first-floor street-facing rooms will catch scooter and bar noise until late, plus ground-floor restaurant smells. Also skip rooms directly opposite the lift shaft – you'll hear the motor and chime day and night.
Best views
Corner rooms on the third floor, or any room with a side window looking over the tiled rooftops towards the Basilica di Santa Croce. Street-facing rooms give a view of the historic street life but come with noise trade-off.
Quietest floors
Second and third floors – above street-level clatter but not under a potentially busy roof terrace. At a 3-star hotel with no lift to fourth floor, upper floors are quieter by default.
🔊 Noise notes
A 3-star on a main historic street will have late-night pedestrian and scooter noise, plus early bins collection. The hotel's own entry/exit and any adjacent bar or restaurant will add clatter from 7am to midnight.
Insider tips
1) If arriving by car, park at Porta Napoli car park (10 mins walk) – the hotel has no private parking and the ZTL zone is tricky. 2) Ask for a room with a window that opens – some 3-star rooms only have AC vents, and Lecce gets stuffy in summer. Request 'camera con finestra apribile' at booking.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use bank ATMs (Bancomat) for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at Brindisi airport and tourist offices near Porta Napoli, which take high commissions.

Not expected. Round up the bill by a euro or two in restaurants (service charge is included); no tip for taxis, but leave a few coins for hotel cleaners if you wish.
식사, 쇼핑 & 여행에 대한 예산

Pizza al taglio (by the slice) or a panino from a forno (bakery) near Via dei Perroni: €5–7.
A pizza margherita and a beer at a local pizzeria off the main tourist streets: €8–12.
Try the friggitorie (fried food shops) around Via Palmieri or the market area near Piazza Mazzini for rustici (stuffed pastries) and puccia (stuffed flatbread) at €3–5.
Conad, MD Discount, and Eurospin are the common budget supermarkets, with branches on Via Salvatore Trinchese and Viale Marconi.
Check the stalls at the weekly market on Via Caduti di Via Fani (Saturday mornings) for cheap basics; also OVS and H&M in the city centre for affordable high-street.
Walk—the historic centre is compact. For longer trips, the SGM bus day pass (€3.10) covers city buses. From Brindisi airport, take the regional train (€4.90–7.50) from the airport shuttle to Brindisi station, then direct train to Lecce.
Eat lunch at a bakery or rosticceria (rotisserie) instead of sit-down restaurants. Buy water and snacks at supermarkets—tourist-area prices are double. Visit in summer for free evening concerts and festivals in public squares.

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →주위를 둘러보는
Find train tickets →Prisma Hotel (Piazza del Duomo stop) → Lecce City Centre (any point)
💡 The Prisma Hotel is a 5-min walk from the historic centre, so you won't need city buses much. Use them only for reaching the train station or Tesoriera area. Buy a 10-ride card at a tabacchi.
B&B Antica Corte (Via Nazionale, stop 'Lecce 14') → Lecce city centre (Piazza Sant'Oronzo)
💡 Buy a 10-ride card (€10) at any tabacchi for cheaper hops to the centre. The B&B is a 10-minute walk to Piazza Sant'Oronzo anyway—I'd leg it unless you're loaded with shopping bags.
Lecce Train Station → Prisma Hotel (via city bus or short walk)
💡 From Brindisi Airport, take the shuttle bus to Brindisi train station (€2, 20 mins), then a regional train to Lecce (€7.50, 30 mins). Cheapest door-to-door for solo travellers.
Brindisi Airport (BDS) → Lecce Bus Station (near Porta Napoli, 15 min walk to B&B)
💡 Buy tickets at the airport newsstand or online—drivers don't sell them. The bus drops you at Via V. E. Orlando; walk east through Porta Napoli to reach the B&B.
Brindisi Centrale (connect from airport via shuttle bus) → Lecce Centrale (10 min walk to B&B via Via Palmieri)
💡 Take the airport shuttle (€2, every 30 mins) from Brindisi Airport to the train station. For B&B Antica Corte, exit Lecce station and walk straight up Via Palmieri—it's a flat 10-minute walk.
Brindisi Airport (BDS) → Prisma Hotel, Lecce

Lecce 주요 관광지
💡 Walk to the far end of the piazza near the Roman column for the best overhead view. If you want to go down, the small entry fee is €3 — worth it for the close-up of the stone seats.
💡 Entry is free from the street level—don't pay for the underground tour unless you're a Roman history buff. Come at sunset when the stone glows warm.
💡 Walk west along the walls for 200 metres to a small park with benches – good picnic spot with a view over the olive groves.
💡 Visit late afternoon when the sun hits the facade — the stone carvings of animals and saints pop. Skip the paid museum inside unless you're a dedicated art historian.
💡 Step inside during weekday mornings — it's often empty. The 18th-century altar is a stunner and gets overlooked by tourists rushing to the bigger churches.
💡 Come in the early morning before 9am—nobody else is around. The cathedral's interior is free to enter, and the bell tower climb costs €5 but gives panoramic views.
💡 Visit late afternoon, around 4–5pm, for the best light on the stone carvings without the morning tour crowds.
💡 Come at dusk when the cathedral lights up and the crowds thin. The cathedral itself is free to enter, but check mass times for access to the side chapels.
