La Fiermontina

City
Puglia, Italy

A family hotel like no other – La Fiermontina is a hotel brimming with sophistication yet retaining a warmth and sense of place. Art, culture and hospitality are at the heart of La Fiermontina, offering the guest an opportunity to experience a stay showcasing the regions heritage and hospitality.

Scented gardens, delicious local food and a peaceful pool are highlights of this wonderful property. The bedrooms vary from deluxe to suites with two Suites a Cote, which have outside space and decorated with furniture from places such as Le Corbusier, plus art from the family collection. The staff at the property are on hand to guide guests through share their knowledge and secrets of this beautiful region.

Why we like La Fiermontina

The style in which they present this hotel is breathtakingly but it is the family connection and intimate nature of the hospitality, which makes La Fiermontina stand out. The gardens and pool offer gentle respite from a day of exploring Lecce’s Baroque alleyways. With delicious food and the wellness area of its sister property at Palazzo Bozzi Corso, just five minutes away, make hotel the perfect choice to base yourself.

Facilities

Shady terraces and a warm pool are key to the relaxing nature of this hotel. Combined with the central location and facilities of his sister property five minutes away, La Fiermontina offers wonderful dining options, wine tasting and ideas for your exploration of Lecce and this beautiful part of Puglia.

Take advantage of the owners insider knowledge with a visit to their family museum – M.A.M.A. This museum is an art gallery come social space and is a connection between the two properties. A place for dinners, wine tastings and cooking lessons. Everything is on hand, as expected with a hotel of this quality – Lavazza coffee makers in the rooms, WiFi, breakfast and meals in the garden or by the pool.
