Minor Hotels, an international operator, investor and owner in the hospitality industry, a firm founded in 1978 and headquartered in Bangkok, Thailand, has unveiled plans to open a new Tivoli hotel in Lecce, a city in Italy’s southern Apulia region, famous for its outstanding baroque architecture, earning it the nickname of “Florence of the South”, built from the local soft, creamy Lecce stone, also highlighted by ancient Roman ruins, vibrant city life, and its status as a relevant centre alongside its province for producing olive oil, wine, and papier - mâché art.
The opening of Tivoli Palazzo Risorgimento Lecce aims to enhance the city’s hospitality offerings in the city, a development which marks an expansion of Tivoli Hotels & Resorts in Italy and contributes to Minor Hotel’s portfolio, which will include 60 properties in the country.
Following a comprehensive renovation the hotel is scheduled to open in April 2026 and will be situated in Lecce’s historic centre, on Via Imperatore, between the iconic squares Piazza Sant’ Oronzo and Piazzetta Santa Chiara, providing an easy access to several key attractions within walking distance, such as the Roman Amphitheatre, the Basilica di Santa Croce, and Lecce Cathedral.
Tivoli Palazzo Risorgimento Lecce is also approximately a 20 - minute drive from nearby beaches, accessible via Brindisi Airport, which is 35 - minute drive away, and is connected by high - speed rail to major Italian cities.
The hotel will feature 45 rooms, a ground - floor restaurant, and a rooftop lounge bar offering views of the Cathedral Bell Tower, a wellness area with pool, treatment rooms, a Turkish bath, and a gym.
The property will be part of the Tivoli Hotels & Resorts brand founded in Portugal in 1933, known for its elegant ambiance and unique local experiences. The brand features properties in cities, beaches, and resorts across Europe, Brazil, the Middle East and Asia, emphasizing a philosophy of “slow living” encouraging guests to stay in the moment and discover the local culture through curated services and distinct hotel personalities.
