Retreat to Lecce’s reborn Palazzo Zimara, a baroque gem from 1557

Palazzo Zimara, Lecce hotel review.

Tucked behind grand carriage doors on the main thoroughfare of Lecce’s Via Giussepe Libertini, the 16th-century Palazzo Zimara has reopened as an exclusive, 18-room boutique hotel and hideaway in the historic city centre. Originally built in 1557 as the family home of an aristocrat and Renaissance philosopher, the Palazzo has been masterfully restored by architect Raffaele Centonze to reflect the grandeur of its heritage.

Palazzo Zimara joins the refined D’Angelo Family Collection alongside Lake Como’s ‘Villa Mojana’ di Limonta, Matera’s Palazzotto Residence & Winery and Francesco Radino Winery.
