Hotel Hermitage, near Lecce

Around 20 minutes from the renowned beaches of Gallipoli, sitting in acres of private parkland, and with both an outdoor and indoor swimming pool, tennis court and football pitch, the Hotel Hermitage offers four star comfort in the heart of Italy's lovely Salento area. The Salentine peninsula is the very heel of Italy, the southernmost reach of the lovely Puglia/Apulia region.

This Puglian hotel is in Galatina, right at the heart of the peninsula. Rooms are singles, doubles and suites. All have minibar, bathroom, satellite TV, air conditioning and work desk. The hotel has a superb restaurant in La Pulcinella, with an atmosphere both elegant and cosy, with traditional local Puglian cuisine as well as Italian and international dishes. During the summer months you can enjoy your dinner, or sip a cocktail, on the terrace overlooking the swimming pool and the gardens.

Services here include WiFi internet access, currency exchange, meeting rooms, babysitting for when parents want a night off, and much more. The front desk will arrange airport transfers, laundry, packed lunches ... whatever you need to make your vacation go smoothly. And when you head out from the hotel you have the beautiful coastline and stunning historic cities of Puglia to enjoy. Explore the Baroque delights of Lecce, historic Ostuni and Galatina itself: this area is known as 'Grecia Salentina' as the area was Greek in culture and language until Medieval times. Its scenery and architecture resembles Greece rather than Italy in many ways.
