All hotels should be like this! Stylish, ultramodern, ultra comfortable and professional, helpful and really friendly staff. It really does have the “wow” factor. Loved the no-touch screens which we used to operate the lights, aircon, blinds etc. Loved the big, glassed-in terrace that we enjoyed a drink on in the evening while watching people do the passagiata on the main shopping street below. Beautiful linen, nice toiletries, big fluffy towels, a safe, a well-stocked mini-bar, great communication before and during our stay. Breakfast was in the cafe connected to the hotel downstairs, called Facula. Orders from a menu were taken by a charming waitress (of course!) There was a huge choice of pastries, hot foods, yoghurt, and so on. Fabulous. It was an absolute pleasure to stay here. We can’t recommend it highly enough.

The room was spacious and had all facilities needed and mentioned. The breakfast was excellent, it exceeded our expectations. The staff were very kind, polite and helpful. The hotel has a private parking space and it is positioned ideally to travel and explore Puglia (Monopoli, Alberobello, Polignano a Mare….all places are 10-20 min drive). The hotel is pet friendly with no additional charges.

This little gem of a hotel was a great find. We cycled from Ostuni and arrived earlier than expected. They let us check in early and even offered us a cappuccino! The staff were very helpful, the breakfast was amazing and the location of the old town was great! A must stay if you're in the region.

FAQs about hotels in Apulia

Rich Legacy and Natural Beauty

One of the richest archaeological regions in Italy, Puglia has received the influx from Greeks, Romans, Goths, Lombards, Byzantines, Normans and Spanish, amongst others. Together with an unusual and amazing landscape, Puglia is an Italian must!

With lower mountains than the rest of the country, it mixes fertile tablelands with dry landscape, rocky plateaus, and green hills. Kissed by the Adriatic and Ionian seas, its crystalline waters, rocky inlets and small sandy coves, well deserves a stay in some of the Puglia hotels on the beach.

Don’t miss the beautiful promontory of Gargano, nor Lecce’s stunning Baroque historic centre. Alberobello’s ‘trulli’ stone houses are a picturesque must. Being Apulia’s capital, Bari offers a number of cultural offer highlights as well as a lively nightlife, also famous in the summer resort of Gallipoli.

Its food is probably one of the best kept Italian secrets. The spaghetti with sea urchins is a typical delicious dish, while the ‘burrata’ cheese melts in your mouth with its creamy centre. You should also try the black olives, the ‘orecchiette’ pasta, and the amazing wines!

Whether you look for Puglia hotels with 5 stars, B&Bs or private villas, don’t miss the wide offer available on Booking.com!

    A great place to stay to visit the surrounding towns, Locorotondo, Alberobello, Cisternino, Martina Franca. And also only 30 min from Polignano a Mare and Monopoli. The room was great, with a wonderful private porch. The property is very beautiful and apart from visiting the towns around you can also relax in the wonderful pool and also the common living room and greenery. Breakfast is cooked at the hour you choose and is ready for you with what you chose the night before. All the staff is vey nice and helpful, giving you all the information you need and ask for. And the suggestions for lunch and dinner were all great: 5 stars. They even arranged for the restaurant bookings. Thank you Manuele and Luciana at the reception and also Francesca at breakfast!!

The people, especially the host, Adriano, were extremely kind, warm and welcoming, it was hard to leave. The property is stunning, a dreamy place with history, the rooms we saw (we had to switch at some point) were very classy and beautiful. The perfect place to charge batteries, also, incredible food.

Three swimming pools and a short trip to the private beach, super easy and enjoyable.

    The old town was a delight, so long as one was aware of the bicycles, scooters, motorbikes and even cars sharing the narrow streets with you and lots of other pedestrians, in both directions! Plenty of nice restaurants, a few interesting museums, many churches and pleasant walking along the sea and harbour edges as well as on the remains of the city wall.

    Leece is an amazing historical town. It is wonderful to see how the buildings are being preserved with such care and attention to detail and that there is so much excavation activity going on to preserve the history for generations to come. The restaurants were serving amazing and authentic Italian dishes which made our stay even more enjoyable.

    Beautiful old town, with a huge number of restaurants and bars. Food was excellent throughout. Staff everywhere were exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to help. We visited in September and it was very busy - We can only imagine it is too crowded and too hot in peak summer months. Be aware that beaches are small, but there are a number of them, within walking distance, or by taxi to larger beach clubs. The old town is really beautiful, with tiny streets, squares and alleyways. Worth packing comfy shoes and just wandering.

    We chose October to avoid the crowds. It was very pleasant and quiet not very touristy. It’s easy to get around on foot to many eateries and transport via train and buses to other locations. I did not find the local beach very interesting/ attractive and for that reason I would not return for a longer stay. Not much of interest for younger travellers. No parks within walking distance. Ideal for short stay 2-4 days. No car needed around the town but to access beaches you do need it. Parking is a definite problem.

    I spent 11 nights in Otranto and used it to visit many areas in the southern most part of Puglia. It is a beautiful place with the warm Adriatic Sea to cool you down after the exertions of shopping and sight-seeing. Restaurants are plentiful but if I was to select one that we loved, it was Retro Gusto. Getting around Otranto is relatively stress free and if you enjoy people watching, then you are in your element in Otranto.

    I wouldn't rush back to Taranto.

    I wouldn't rush back to Taranto. The modern town is very built up and feels a bit poor/run-down -- imagine a slightly more upmarket Naples. The old town is very dilapidated once you head away from the castle. Parts are totally derelict with more stray cats that human inhabitants. We chose Taranto as a base to explore Alberobello, Locorotondo and Matera, but would have been better staying somewhere more central.
