Northbridge
Get a feel of times gone by at this completely renovated hotel and restaurant, dating back to the 13th century and set in La Terra, the old quarter of Ostuni. Hotel Rione Antico La Terra is located in the heart of the so called White City, and offers impressive panoramic views over the town. Next door to Hotel Rione Antico La Terra, you will find the Benedictine convent of St Peter, just one of the many architectural sights in this lovely town. The hotel's restaurant, and some of the elegantly decorated rooms, still display traces of the ancient stonework of the original building. For a real taste of how the locals live, you can enjoy some typical cuisine in the restaurant, together with wines carefully selected from the best producers in Apulia. Hotel Rooms: 17

Perfectly located in the centre of the old city of Ostuni. Hotel and room were cool, a welcome relief from the hot weather outside when we were staying. Being located on a quiet, virtually traffic free street, there was no noise to spoil sleep. Street parking is available, but hotel's car park is just a few minutes walk away, (5 Euro per day). The hotel will take you and your luggage to and from their car park. If lost (as we were...) staff will happily find you, and take you to hotel. Staff were pleasant, helpful, friendly, and professional always. Restaurant was closed during our stay, but a number of excellent restaurants and bars nearby. Beaches are just a 10 minute drive away Lots of characterful touches within the hotel I would definitely stay here again

Excellent staff who went out of their way to make our stay extremely pleasurable. A young lady named Fausta was a joy. Warm, friendly and knowledgable who spoke excellent English. The rooms were comfortable and each floor had a balcony area for enjoying the sunset with a glass of wine. Excellent location for walking the city center. The breakfast served at the Restaurant San Pietro, right next door, was excellent, with great staff. The free secure parking area is a short 5 min. Walk from the hotel, with easy access, once you are shown it's location. While staying in Ostuni, be sure to make the 6 km. Trip to the Masseria Il Frantoio for dinner and a tour. It is an amazing experience. The hotel staff made reservations and arranged transportation. Our only dificulty was finding the Albergo La Terra. The hotel is marked on signage as simply "La Terra" and the gps became confused as it is on a non driving street. No one seemed to recognize the name "Rione Antico La Terra". Find the Piazza Liberta, park and walk to the "Albergo La Terra" reception. They will gladly pick up your luggage and accompany you to the parking area. Also, plan a day trip to nearby Grottaglie, the ceramic "capital" of Puglia. Amazing artisans and craftsmen.

This hotel was completely amazing. The rooms have been designed to make use of features of the old building, but the amenities are completely modern. There were rooms upstairs available to guests as well as a "lounge" downstairs and a rooftop balcony with incredible views. The staff was wonderful, friendly, and helpful. The woman at the desk even parked our car! The breakfast was outstanding with espresso and cappucinos available. Our favorite hotel in Italy. My only complaint has to do with the various names used for the hotel. The signs in town called it "La Terra," while in front of the hotel it said "Albergo La Terra," yet online it's called "Rione Antico La Terra." When I saw this name I almost clicked "I didn't stay at this hotel" as I forgot that name is the same hotel. It is especially confusing to a foreign traveler booking online. Also someone should mention that you can't actually drive to the hotel as the streets leading up to it are so narrow! But we just didn't do our homework about Ostuni. We loved walking around the city but don't try to drive if you aren't used to tiny winding roads and stick shifts!

We couldn't find the old town when we drove in, so we parked in front of a church and called the hotel. A few minutes later, a young man in a small car arrived and told us to follow him. He led us to a nearby guarded parking facility where we left the car (5 euros) and then took us and our baggage into the old city to the hotel. The public rooms on the first floor of the hotel are comfortable and charming; WiFi Internet is available there. The hotel is well located. Up the street in front of the older cathedral is a small gelateria that has the best granita di caffe we ever tasted. We also had an excellent meal at the Osteria della catedrale a bit further up the street.

Definitely not the 4-star accommodation it claims to be: hasn't been renovated to ages which is reflected in its rooms. Moreover, the breakfast isnt up to par either.However, the extremely friendly staff, the excellent location and authenticity of the hotel, make up for its imminent flaws.

L'hotel è stato di recente ristrutturato, ma ha mantenuto il fascino ed alcuni elementi architettonici del palazzo antico, del 1200, adiacente al monastero delle Benedettine, in pieno centro storico.

La posizione e la cortesia del personale Unica vera pecca, la non completa separazione del bagno dalla camera. Una parte della parete è in vetro e non chiude completamente quindi, a meno che si sia soli, uno degli ospite può disturbare l'altro con luce e rumore se ha orari differenti o alzate notturne.

Ottima struttura, molto curata, nel centro storico di Ostuni. Personale molto cortese e disponibile, si sono presi cura del parcheggio dell'auto - gratuito - e hanno risolto una piccola mancanza durante la colazione in meno di cinque minuti! Da raccomandare!

Ho trovato l'Hotel, strutturato in un antico monastero beninserito nella parte medievale della città. E' molto confortevole,la camera era bella con una visione del lato opposto della città veramente notevole. Il bagno ben strutturato e ben dotato. La colazione del mattino ottima ed abbondante. Il personale molto gentile ed efficiente da rendere inavvertibile la mancanza di un garage nell'albergo (cosa ovviamente impossibile per l'epoca della costruzione) e ben usufruibile quello esterno. Lo raccomanderei tranquillamente ad amici e parenti, anche per il rapporto qualità prezzo, oltrechè per l'ubicazione. Paolo ed Anna Maria Mombelloni E' un pò indaginoso all'interno l'accesso al Ristorante

Purtroppo c'era un problema al router internet per cui non era possibile collegarsi dalla camera, ma lo staff ha tenuto a precisare che era un problema della compagnia telefonica che stava aggiornando i software. In ogni caso c'era una postazione con un computer collegato ad internet nella hall dell'albergo.
