Guest review
The hotel is in a quiet neighbourhood, easy to find (as there are also signs on the road directing to the hotel), not too far from the town centre (which can be reached on foot in about 10 minutes or by car in 2 minutes; however, parking in the town centre can be a bit of a problem, especially in the evening). The hotel receptionists speak good English, are always smiling, polite, helpful, and solve any problems in a blink. The good-sized room that we got (412) was spotlessly clean. The mattress was very comfortable. The air conditioning system worked like a wonder while we were out (chilling the air in the room while outside it was scorching), and it turned off every time we inserted the room card, so it did not disturb us while we were in the room, which we liked a lot. The air in the room was so cool that, although it was August (so really hot outside), we even used the light, fluffy blanket that we found in one of the closets. There was plenty of storage space for clothes and trollers. There was also an extra bed, a table and two armchairs, as well as a fridge (with minibar), large enough to chill the water bottles that we bought extremely cheaply from the relatively close Penny shop. The roller window shutters prevented the heat, light, and noise from entering the room, so you could sleep later if you wanted to. The bathroom, although rather small, had all the necessary facilities (including a bidet, which we really appreciated). The towels were changed daily, and the bathroom supplies refilled. The shower had good water pressure and good drainage. The breakfast had plenty of options: omelette, yellow cheese, ham, tomatoes, Iceberg lettuce, yoghurt, cereal, bread, fresh and canned fruit, homemade sweets (including delicious fluffy, freshly baked croissants), coffee, tea, milk, juice, and, of course, water. The hotel's restaurant offered a different menu choice for dinner every day, which was printed and displayed in the elevator.

It has been a nice place in the middle of the countryside, a large area actually divided into two buildings. One building was a restaurant and grocery store where you could buy some probably homemade jams, salami, cheeses, etc. A little further away was the other building where there was a B&B and factory that you could perhaps go in and look around, but I didn't. The room was nice, reasonable, comfortable beds, large bathroom and an outside walkway so it was nice to be able to go out and not feel trapped with only windows. Wifi worked well. The staff was very nice and helpful. The downside was that it was relatively cold inside, probably central A/C and it couldn't be regulated in the room. But there were warm blankets so I didn't freeze at night anyway. The other downside was that although there was a dining room in this building, breakfast was still served in the first building and it was a bit of a walk. I had to take the car as I am after leg surgery and have a bit of difficulty walking. So the place is not very suitable for a person with reduced mobility. The breakfast was good and there was also salami and cheeses, not just pastries. There was also a restaurant so you could have dinner or lunch and refreshments so that was nice. As I said it was a nice place, a real agricultural place and a lot to do around as there was a forest too with different activities so it might be nice to stay there for a couple of days and explore a bit.

This place was the most gorgeous location with the most perfect pool we’ve ever been in. Spotless, great interesting history, just a short drive or ride to Polignano for restaurants and fun, also the iconic Bari beach and best sites in Puglia. Donatella, our hostess, was so sweet and attentive; she made excellent recommendations, and even helped our mother locate residents with her father’s family name! Annalisa also provided wonderful service, and our host Benedetto could not have been nicer. SO BEAUTIFUL I did not want to leave there. 100% recommend for a day, a week, a wedding, or bachelorette/bachelor party. Absolutely outstanding. Quiet, amazing setting. So peaceful and breakfast and dinner were also wonderful, especially the orichetta with orange tomato sauce. I’ve never had anything like it. Delicious. What a very, very special place. Grazzi mille, Messaria del Crossifisso!

Lovely atmosphere and picturesque place which you can easily walk around in a day. Lots of interesting shops. Good restaurants and we would recommend Trattoria Rosso. Eat slowly as the tasting menu never seems to stop but is all utterly delicious with wine pairing too. You will need to book to be sure of a table.

Alberobello is a very clean and tidy town and felt very safe. Being there in late October, to us it felt a little busy and touristy but I am sure no where near as busy as the peak season. We prefer the off peak season to avoid too many tourists. We stayed only a short walk from the main square so it was fairly quiet around our hotel. We requested a traditional local restaurant recommendation from our hotel and it didn’t disappoint.

Locorondo was a good base to visit Alborello and Martina Franca without the crazy crowds of tourists. Nice old town to walk around, not big. Nice park across from the piazza. The railway station was getting renovated when we were there, so no services, and the bus info from the tabacchi ticket sellers was not up to date. Bus stop signs minimal or non existent. We went mainly by google and asking a lot of questions and hoped for the best. There a multiple bus and train companies which can also make it confusing. This confusion was not limited to Locorotondo but to Puglia generally. Hopefully it will be much better after all the road and railway projects are done. We got everywhere we wanted to go but sometimes had to go to the "bus stop" the same time the day before we were travelling to check the bus arrived, especially for our longer journey legs.

Altamura is a very vibrant town with a great culture, nice warm people, great food. Place to visit when in town is the Cathedral of Altamura, the historic center with their intricates narrows cobble streets, the many restaurants and antic forni that makes exceptional bread and focacce. Not to forget the near by town of Gravina, Matera with the mitical site of Sassi. Altamura is a town that will remain in your heart for all the things that I mentioned but mostly for the beauty of the town.

Giovinazzo is a historic, charming, quiet, and clean town.

Giovinazzo is a historic, charming, quiet, and clean town. Its old town is a medieval fortress with buildings and churches dating from the 12th to the 15th centuries. You can take long walks right by the sea, past the small harbor and along the pier. Although there is no direct public transport connection from the airport, the town has a train station with great rail links to Bari and other points of interest. Very few people speak English in Giovinazzo, but you will easily manage as everyone is extremely friendly.

We had an excellent stay in Noci, and Dimora Intini made the experience even more special. The staff were outstanding — friendly, kind, welcoming, and always willing to help. Noci is a beautiful and authentic town, with a stunning old centre, wonderful traditional Puglian food, and a peaceful atmosphere away from the crowds. It is also perfectly located, very close to famous places such as Alberobello and Ostuni. A truly memorable stay in the heart of Puglia. Highly recommended.

Valenzano is a small town near Bari (20km from Karol Wojtyła Airport in Bari), and a good starting point for visiting the Puglia region. We liked the central park of the town, the old buildings, the palm trees, the blossoms on the side of the streets: leander, Californian lilac, and bougainvillea. When it comes to meals, the main inconvenient is that all restaurants are closed from 2 pm to 7,30 pm. We ate at Bistrot Da Carlo, where the owner went out of his way to welcome us even before the opening hours (which we really appreciated, as we were thirsty, hungry, and exhausted from too much walking that day). We recommend their "Frittura di Calamari e Gamberi"(fried seafood), which is absolutely delicious and quite affordable (12 eur), accompanied by the Prosecco wine (15 eur/750 ml bottle). Orechietti - their traditional pasta - is tasty too, and we also liked the antipasti (which are appetizers), the best of which were the fried zucchini (utterly fabulous). The sweets were good, too. Everything was inexpensive at this restaurant (even the "coperto", which is the equivalent of the tips in Italy, was only 1,50 eur/person, while in other restaurants it is 2,50 or 3 eur/person). We didn't find much to do in Valenzano, not even shopping - just two "salumeria" shops from which to buy some traditional cheese and cold cuts.

Conversano is a nice little town.

Conversano is a nice little town. It is quite charming and we used it as a base for traveling around in the region. It is kind of in the center of everything that is worth visiting. Matera and Lecce were the places the further away. Polignano a Mare is only 9 km away. So if you plan to visit the region Convesano might be ideal for your stay to use as a base or if you prefer you can split the stay across different cities. We chose to come back to Conversano every evening and head to our next destination next morning. It also have a quiet old city with a castle and several beautiful churches. The best thing is that it is not that tourist crowded since it is not a major point of interest as say: Polignano a Mare, Alberobello, Matera, Ostuni. If you have time, go visit the Safari Zoo in Fasano. For Matera, you need at least one FULL day. Alberobello can be combined with Locorotondo. Monopoli and Bari are also amazing. You can easily spend a month traveling around the region and visiting everything. To begin, do trip of about 7 nights and you will have a blast, I promise you. I can write a lot about what can be seen...the region is really beautiful. Do some research beforehand so you are prepared and you plan for the 8 days accordingly. Enjoy the food and wine...the cuisine is quite diverse in this region and absolutely delicious.
