Situated in the historic heart of beautiful Lecce, this elegantly-converted 16th century building was once the home of a nobleman.
Today, the Residence Vico Boemondo has become a residence with 8 suite-apartments for 2-4 people.
Close to the centre of Lecce, all of the city’s historic attractions and artworks are within easy reach of the hotel. Lecce’s cathedral, the Roman amphitheatre, the Piazza Santo Oronzo and the baroque Chiesa di Santa Croce (The Church of the Holy Cross) are all within walking distance. Lecce’s shops, bars and restaurants are also just a short walk from the tranquillity of the area surrounding the hotel. Like the Residence Vico Boemondo itself, a stay at the Residence-Vico Boemondo offers the best of both worlds - 16th century tranquillity with 21st century levels of comfort.

The Roman amphitheatre (0.7 km) – built in the 2nd century the amphitheatre was once able to hold more than 25,000 people. It is now half-buried because other important monuments were built above it over the centuries.
