Bottom Line
The 8piuhotel is fine example of a sleek, contemporary hotel that balances sophisticated technology and uber-modern design with a welcoming atmosphere and quirky touches. While the location doesn't offer direct access to Lecce's city center, parking is ample and free and bikes are available if the 20-minute walk into town is too much. Rooms are high-tech, with large TVs, mood lighting, and digital climate control. The bathrooms have rain showers and chromotherapy lighting. If the setting on a busy road on the outskirts of town doesn't put you off, this hotel offers great value, especially considering its abundance of state-of-the-art amenities and innovative contemporary design.

Scene
Innovative 21st-century design with welcoming ambience
An immaculately crisp, white facade, clean contemporary design, and wonderfully quirky futuristic furnishings set the scene for this ultra-modern, technology-driven property. Just past a statue of two ghostly figures and through a pair of large glass doors, the lobby continues the ambience of 21st-century chic, with swivel chairs, elegant but playful molded furniture, and a liberal smattering of freshly cut flowers. The mood is hushed but welcoming, attracting a blend of business guests who use the reception area for casual meetings and leisure travelers looking for somewhere less traditional.
Location
Set just on the outskirts of historic Lecce, a 20-minute walk to the center
The 8piuhotel is set in the Porta Napoli district of Lecce, in the southeastern "heel" of Italy. The city center and Lecce Old Town are about a 20-minute walk away, and the train and bus stations are a 40-minute walk or 5-10 minute drive from the hotel. The hotel's location on the outskirts of town gives it easy access to the ring road. Brindisi's Salento Airport is a 30-minute drive away. The nearest beaches are 15 minutes by car, as is the Acaja Lecce golf course.
Rooms
Stylish, contemporary rooms with impressive range of tech
The hotel has 83 rooms, all of which are decorated in a sleek, uber-modern style with stylish design pieces and elegant molded furnishings. The neutral color scheme of whites, browns, and grays is soothing, and the fresh white bedding is higher quality than what is often found at this price point in the area. All rooms have large flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, innovative mood lighting, digital clock radios with orientation night lights, and digital climate control. The contemporary bathrooms have large rain showers with chromotherapy lighting. Other nice touches include pillow menus and minibars with free water.
Features
Plenty of free on-site parking and Wi-Fi throughout
The hotel provides breakfast each morning and snacks throughout the day in the sleek, self-service dining area, and there's a lounge bar serving evening drinks. The lobby has an Internet corner with three terminals, and the hotel's fitness center has various exercise machines. A play/relax area is available for guests to unwind, with game consoles and movies. Bikes can be rented from the hotel to cycle into town, and those arriving by car have access to free parking.
