We were enthusiastic and very impressed by this extraordinary B&B. Elisabetta contacted us a few days before our arrival, organized everything perfectly and even provided us with a parking space. The homemade breakfast was plentiful and very good! The rooftop terrace(s) are amazing. We will gladly come back!

Our stay was perfect. Elisabetta is super awesome and very kind and generous. She left us a goodie bag on arrival which had some yummy stuff to munch on. The breakfast was amazing and more than sufficient to get you going for the day. The house itself is perfectly located and walking distance from amazing bars and restaurants. It has multiple beautiful terraces to enjoy the sunset. Everything about our stay was excellent and we would definitely come back to stay here for a longer time. Thank you Elisabetta once again for being a perfect host.

Our hosts Elisabetta and Pierangelo were the most kind and attentive hosts, they went above and beyond to make our stay perfect! From the beautifully designed B&B, large gorgeous terrace, delicious and plentiful homemade breakfasts every morning, suggesting and arranging excursions, beach clubs and taxis, even taking my mother who had an ear infection to the pharmacy to help her get medicine! They were incredible. Our B&B was exceptionally clean and cleaned everyday and its walking distance to all the Lecce sights and restaurants as well as the train station which is ideal for day trips. We can't wait to come back!

Highly recommended! Starting from the friendly contact during booking to the very friendly reception and assistance on site with a rich and always varied breakfast basket at the desired time, everything was just perfect. A basket with small specialties helped us feel welcome right away. The apartment is spacious, generous, and fully equipped. The highlight is the wonderful rooftop terraces directly in front of and above the apartment, which offer both sun and shade. We looked forward to this oasis of peace and relaxation above the old town of Lecce both for breakfast and upon returning from excursions.

Such a warm hospitality is truly unique, from communication via bedandbreakfast before arrival, reception, basket with many welcome gifts, coffee and tea, breakfast basket with wonderful homemade contents, daily refill of water and coffee to the beautiful location, good beds, quiet sleep everything wonderful. The three terraces provide enough space for beautiful days in Lecce. The room is rather small but sufficient, a small wardrobe room for clothes and suitcases, rather small shower, kitchen with everything necessary.

Elisabetta's apartment was exactly as described in the photos. It was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities that one could wish for. The bed was comfortable and the linen bed sheets made a wonderful surprise that were changed every other day by the wonderful Christina who delivered breakfast and kept the apartment spotless daily. Everything about the apartment screamed ‘quality’. Its situation was right in the heart of the old city and all amenities were within walking distance. Elisabetta provided helpful recommendations - she met us on arrival, was extremely friendly and helpful. I would have no hesitation in recommending this apartment to friends and family. A&J.

We have traveled extensively and this was one of the best (if not the best) B&B we have stayed at. Elisabetta and her husband - what can I say - the best. Always available to answer questions and make suggestions if we asked. Location was absolutely perfect; we could walk to a wide variety of restaurants, cafes, and bars. Our space was charming and tastefully decorated and fully equipped. We appreciated that it was refreshed daily and the fridge restocked with water. We really enjoyed the breakfasts and the chance to eat on one of our patios. The car park was very close and easy to access. We were escorted to our car upon leaving and the housekeeper would not let us carry our bags. Thanks so much to her and Elizabetta and her husband. We hope to return one day.

Very nice place in the heart of the old (historic) part of Lecce. Many typical little streets, lots of atmosphere and lovely restaurants, bars or coffee shops. The address is a nice base if you want to go to the sea or to another city or village. Very easy and convenient (to buy) with the bus. The B&B is fully equipped including air conditioning. Breakfast is brought up in a basket and you can arrange the desired time. Daily cleaning and if you need beach towels, they are even ready in a nice beach basket for you. \n\nYou do have to take a few steps of stairs before you reach the terrace, but it is definitely worth it!

Staying at Roof Barocco is like awarding yourself with a visit to Lecce, you will be in the pedestrian center just two minutes from Porta San Biagio and Chiesa di San Matteo, everything in the historic center reachable in 10 minutes. A very beautiful historic house in a quiet square, functional and well-furnished interiors, majestic outdoor spaces, we had 3 terraces for personal use. Elisabetta will welcome you with splendid courtesy and excellent breakfasts. Stay absolutely recommended.

Our host Elisabetta was fantastic. She arranged parking for our rental car nearby and was at the parking site to greet and help us with our luggage. The 2-bedroom apartment was immaculate and had fantastic views from both the sitting area outside the apartment and an additional rooftop area that we had all to ourselves. Elisabetta's breakfast basket each day with fresh homemade goodies was amazing and delicious! If I had known I was going to enjoy this property and our stay so much, I would have booked longer than our 3 nights. Lastly, the location was in the center of Lecce's old town. What more could one want or ask for?

The property was hard to find. There were 48 steps to reach our room, but once we saw it we were very happy with the accommodations, i.e., terrace overlooking the city, fully equipped kitchen, fabulous breakfasts, and a wonderful host. There were 2 bedrooms, although we used only one. All in all, it was a very positive experience & the 48 steps became a minor negative.

Simply put OUTSTANDING on all fronts. The great location and fantastic roof-top balconies were made even more special by our amazing host and her wonderful breakfasts that arrived freshly baked every morning. Less a B&B and more a boutique hotel.

Elisabetta was extremely kind and an excellent hostess, with many little touches that make a difference and with truly excellent breakfasts. We will return soon, hoping it becomes a reference point for us in Lecce. Claudio and Maria.

We spent 2 nights here. Elisabetta welcomed us warmly and provided us with tips and information. We could park the car for free in an underground garage. The room is spacious and very nicely furnished. The highlight is the beautiful rooftop terraces with a view over the Old Town of Lecce. The excellent breakfast is brought to the room and you can have a wonderful breakfast on the roof. The location is really great, quiet in the Old Town and an ideal starting point for exploring the city.

Everything is superb! Very nice apartment furnished with taste. Antique furniture adds charm to this bed and breakfast! The owners have a garage close enough for parking. Breakfasts are delivered at the time of our choice and are also superb: stracciatella, fresh fruit, local pastries. The terrace is also a great asset for this very well-maintained bed and breakfast.

Staying at Elisabetta's incredible retreat in the heart of Lecce was a highlight of our trip to Puglia. The apartment is spacious, elegant, centrally located, very comfortable and a real value. The private upper deck has sweeping views across the rooftops of the city. The lower patio, although adjacent to the patio for the second apartment Elisabetta rents, was also quite private and a great place to eat breakfast or soak in the spring sunshine. There are two bedrooms, a full bath, a half bath, and a well-equipped kitchen - more than enough room for the two of us to feel completely at home. Elisabetta greeted us upon arrival with an overflowing basket of homemade treats, and prepared a very generous and delicious breakfast for us each day of our stay. She is a charming, cultured, enthusiastic hostess who clearly has a passion for her adopted city. Elisabetta also owns a wonderful women's clothing shop a 5 minute walk from the apartment that stocks custom items made from natural materials at reasonable prices. The only thing we regret about our stay at Roof Barocco is that we didn't book a two week stay.

Elisabetta, our host, made us welcome from the moment we contacted her. She was quick to reply to questions throughout our planning and during our stay. Lecce is an old city full of beautiful Baroque buildings, with narrow streets, perfect for wandering on foot. The B&B is in this lovely, old center but visitors should know that car traffic and parking is limited. Fortunately, Elisabetta has thought of that and offers her guests the use of a safe and secure garage near the B&B. We were delighted. On arrival, Elisabetta met us at the garage and guided us to the B&B, which was a short walk over cobbled streets. We had the Loft Suite and could not have been happier. The room was well designed with many thoughtful touches, including crisp, ironed sheets with lovely embroidery along the edges, a full kitchen and well supplied refrigerator (containing homemade Limoncello!), homemade traditional snacks, a welcome bottle of wine, and supplies for making tea and coffee. The bathroom had a great shower, with good water pressure. We had access to four terraces for our sole use, which allowed us to enjoy sun, shade, or panoramic views of the rooftops of this ancient city. Flowers were dotted all around the terraces adding charm and natural beauty. Each morning breakfast was delivered to our door and contained a mixture of sweet and savory dishes made by Elisabetta that day, from products from the family farm. Elisabetta was a gracious and thoughtful host, always offering suggestions for places to eat or sites to visit. She even helped us find a store so that we could replace a piece of luggage that had been seriously damaged during our flight to Italy. Elisabetta is a wonderful ambassador for Lecce and exemplifies hospitality. We will definitely return!

Spectacular! If I could give this property and our hostess an 11 out of 10, I would. The terraces were exactly as I pictured them to be, what a relaxing place to return to at the end of our day. Basket of treats, waiting in our room when we arrived, water and juice in the fridge as well as our special request for some wine and beer. Lots of plugs beside the beds to plug in all your electronic devices. A basket filled with savoury pastry, freshly baked croissants, yogurt, jams, fresh fruit, brought up to our terrace every morning. Fantastic place to use as a base when travelling in the area, we did a day visit to Ostuni, but you could also visit Gallipoli or Otranto, but best of all, the hostess, so accommodating and welcoming. This is the best B&B we have ever stayed at and we have stayed at many.

We have stayed in some lovely Bed and Breakfasts but this was the best ever. Firstly, it was the cleanest and most immaculate place we've stayed in. Also, the building is beautiful and interesting, with four different areas to sit and relax or eat outside (lovely planting, comfy seats) with amazing views of the rooftops of Lecce (which is just a few minutes walk away). But what we really appreciated were Elisabetta's delicious and generous baskets of goodies! Those pies! Cream-filled croissants! The breads. The jams! The fruit salad! (Water, juice, milk, coffee, tomatoes, olive oil, etc. were also generously provided). The limoncello was the best we've ever tasted. I could go on forever, but suffice it to say that if you want to stay in the area, stay at Roof Barocco Suite for as many days as possible! We're definitely coming back. Thank you so much Elisabetta.

We arrived at Lecce by train and just had a 10-15 minute walk to Roof Barocco Suite B&B. We were greeted on arrival and shown our accommodation by Elizabetta, the owner. The apartment was really well furnished, including air conditioning and a huge fridge stocked with milk, juice, and limoncello, and we had the sole use of three separately furnished terraces along with a higher level viewing terrace - the views were incredible (despite the many aerials!). The main terrace also had a wonderful array of plants in pots. On our arrival, there was a welcome basket of goodies and this set the scene for our breakfast baskets which appeared with a varied selection each morning at a time to suit and were all very delicious - especially the pastries/pies and yogurts. A map of the historic center of Lecce and the use of a guide book were also given to us. A truly amazing place to stay in the historic center of Lecce.

An absolutely beautiful experience from beginning to end. It was easy to find in the old town, underground parking was provided nearby and we had 5 lovely days in our "home from home". A welcome basket of goodies was left for us on arrival. X We were given the two-bedroom suite although we only used one but our hostess felt as we were staying 5 days we'd be more comfortable there. We loved being able to sit out on the patio in the evening & just relax. The antique furniture was beautiful, linen bed sheets, a small kitchen & a breakfast delivered to our door every morning in a lovely ribbon-dressed basket. A magical few days.

We spent 2 lovely nights in the loft suite. Although in the center, very peaceful, other than the pleasant sound of church bells. For us, the highlight was all the private rooftop terrace areas available to us, a number of different outdoor rooms, great spaces for breakfast or a drink, and a great panorama of Lecce. Elisabetta was a superb host and provided amazing breakfast baskets. A very unique B&B.

I consider this B&B to be the best I have had the opportunity to know as the attention to every detail is extraordinary, as is the quality of everything that is available to the guest. A welcome basket is full of typical local products with cookies, jams produced by Elisabetta. The entire apartment is at the guest's total disposal, which includes a well-equipped kitchen. The breakfasts are abundant and made up of products of the highest quality such as artisan yogurt and orange juices.
