The city's Baroque style is evident in its stunning piazzas, fountains, and churches, such as the iconic Piazza del Duomo and the Basilica di Santa Croce. Lecce has a rich cultural identity, with a strong focus on music, art, and food.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to B&B Triangolo, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the upper floors (3rd or 4th) to minimize street noise from the busy Lecce streets. The B&B Triangolo's location in the city center means there's always some level of ambient noise, but higher floors tend to be quieter.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the service entrance or lift, as they may experience noise from staff and guests. Given the 3-star rating, it's likely that rooms on lower floors (1st or 2nd) near the lift or service entrance may be noisier due to increased foot traffic.
Best views
Given the address, rooms on the 3rd or 4th floors with a south-facing orientation may offer a glimpse of the city skyline, although the view might be partially obstructed by nearby buildings.
Quietest floors
3rd and 4th floors are likely the quietest, as they're away from the main street noise and lift traffic.
🔊 Noise notes

Insider tips
Request a room with a private bathroom, as some rooms may share facilities. This is not uncommon for 3-star B&Bs in Italy. If you have a car, consider parking at a nearby lot or street, as on-street parking in Lecce can be challenging and metered.

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)

Top Attractions in Lecce
💡 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.
