Where to stay in Apulia

The rooms and the facilities are very good

Clean rooms and the breakfast were amazing

Staff was great. Rooms were clean. Food was awesome and a great location between center of town and the shrine to Padre Pio

Brill location close to pio church and town centre dont miss scruffy duffy bar best place in san giovanni for food snd drink !!!!5 mins walk fro hotel finni where staff were super to chat with as taught me some basic italian , really nice friendly hotel and people

Staff are friendly and go above and beyond. Giuseppe was fantastic and provided many ideas of where to eat authentic food and he didn’t disappoint.

Great location. Very helpful, nice and friendly staff. The best place to stay.

It's a wonderful place because all trulli are nearby (moreover, that hotel was part of trulli church in the past). All right variety in breakfast and staff does their duties well.

This place is in Alberbello and super convenient! Plus, the front desk is so friendly—you’ll love it. Definitely recommend!

Old but well maintained hotel. Right next to the Trulli and a beautiful park. Breakfast was very good. The room was a little hot, but there’s a fan that helps. Would come back.

The room was large enough with a small balcony facing the local park. The facilities were average and the breakfast was a typical European breakfast. The location was good, as the hotel was right next to a bustling alley.

Located in a monastery, the breakfast is rich and delicious, and transportation is convenient. Although the price is a bit high, it is worth it and you get what you pay for.

The staff at the hostel were very friendly and helpful. I asked them to book a taxi to Matera in advance, and the price was clearly displayed, so I was able to make the reservation with peace of mind. Also, when I asked to change my taxi destination from directly to Matera to going via Locorocondo, they immediately called a taxi company on the spot and accommodated my request. The hostel was very accommodating...

Great location, room and breakfast.

Very well located hotel; beautiful decoration baroque art, in the spirit of Italy; very good full breakfast; attentive staff and good advice.

Hotel is very close to train station. Very convenient for hopping on a train to get to hotel and to next destination. No convenience store in close proximity and hence difficult to buy tooth paste and tooth brush that hotel doesn't provide. Only one kebab shop is in close proximity to the hotel and if you do not like kebab you have to walk quite a distance for food.

As soon as the window was closed, the room smelled of decay, a rather unpleasant smell. The elevator was also very old, and it took several presses to get the elevator going while waiting in the lobby. However, it was very close to the station, and taxis were available right outside the hotel, so transportation was quite convenient.

Wonderful weekend in a very beautiful city that I did not know. Hotel practically in the square in front of the station. Structure that has maintained the classic standards well cared for. Very spacious hall with various areas with lounges with classic furnishings. Spacious room with separate wardrobe area and large and renovated bathroom. Well-stocked continental breakfast. The choice was dictated...

Don’t go! Hygiene below zero. Aee picture of carpet in room. Not worth 4 stars. Pitty because location is good and it probably once was “grand”. Today however no grandeur left.

Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The grounds beautiful and set in a quiet rural environment which allows you to truly detach from everyday’s life. Rooms were big and clean, and the dinner was lovely and typical. The only downside was the pool which needed a cleaning as the edges were all green from the sea-weed and sea-moss meaning there was a bacterial imbalance that needed to be addressed

The staff were really helpful, but there weren’t enough of them.

This hotel is the perfect relaxed retreat. The grounds are beautiful, seems to be restored old buildings with rustic charm. The room we had was huge and very clean and modern. The pool was beautiful to relax around. Little kittens and the beautiful dog Gina welcome you. The staff go over and above for you. Alessandro, helped me personally after my car broke down and not able to speak Italien he helped...

TRES BEL ENDROIT AU MILIEU DE LA CAMPAGNE tres bel endroit, reposant, un peu loin de l aeroport certes mais très accueillant, le personnel et le service sont au top.

We had a very good stay at Masseria Malvindi as a family of four traveling with two small kids. The staff were very professional, service-minded, welcoming, and interested in your stay without being too much. We had room number one, which was two “rooms” perfect size for us, very spacious, clean, and modernly decorated. The breakfast was very good with fresh, local options and on the weekend we...

A Truly Exceptional Stay – Beyond All Expectations! From the moment we arrived, this masseria exceeded every expectation. The service was impeccable warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive without being overbearing. Every staff member we encountered went out of their way to ensure our stay was flawless. The room was a haven of comfort and style spacious, immaculately clean, and thoughtfully designed...

Great beach hotel near Porto Cesareo We had a wonderful stay at the end of May before the busy season picked up! Very friendly staff and nice facilities. The beach club immediately in front is excellent with a very nice restaurant and soft sand beach. Good breakfast too!

Área was walkable, beach was very nice. Staff was helpful and friendly. Would stay again if I’m the area.

The hotel is a little seedy looking from the beach, but overall is ok. Room was clean, a bit small (especially by American standards). Breakfast was good--lots of cakes options, a few meats and cheeses for the keto folk (that would be me), good cappuccino, cereal, yogurt, fruit, etc. We didn't have dinner here--menu options a bit limited. The rooms come with an ombrellone and two lettini on the beach...

Nice, well-maintained beach... You can book online, it's very convenient. They have a car park that customers can use located just outside the entrance. You can only use the parking lot if you have the license plate of the vehicle you are using! They have a small restaurant and service right up to the umbrella by ordering through the app! The sea is very beautiful and clear, about 30 meters from...

A place where you can relax in peace. The structure is very well maintained, there is an elevator and our sea view balcony room was large with air conditioning and a mini bar. The room is thoroughly cleaned daily, towels and sheets are changed every 2 days. The mattress is brand new and very comfortable. A hearty breakfast is served at the table, even gluten-free. For lunch we always ate very well...

Great place, very polite staff, clean and cozy. 10 mt from the coastline. Recommend for sure!

Paul Keogh Ireland Dublin It’s was amazing staff brilliant food excellent Hotel stunning swimming pool wow restaurant something that you would dream about ‘ I am going back sooner than later so clean everything that you would need’ The Italy dream that gives all ‘ so close to town’I did the wine tasting amazing , looking forward to my return trip’ Cheers again…… ‘

Very welcoming and functional hotel with breathtaking views from which you can breathe an air of nobility, excellent exteriors and service, nothing to say, the rooms are slightly uncomfortable but still very welcoming, all in all an almost perfect experience.

Good structure, well-kept green space and beautiful swimming pool, excellent breakfast. The only negative note is the gym

Superb reception, nice room, beautiful surroundings

The place is beautiful and well-maintained, with no mosquitoes or flies. The lawn is magnificent. The lobby staff is extremely kind and always available. Breakfast is plentiful, and there's also a gluten-free and vegan option.

A magnificent 4-star resort with a beautiful park, featuring, among other things, an ancient oil mill and magnificent succulents. There's no shortage of amenities, including a swimming pool, a seafood restaurant, and rooms for ceremonies and private parties. The rooms are large and cozy. Situated on the outskirts of Gallipoli, it has ample parking and is just a few minutes' drive from the center...

A very special experience that we will always remember. The staff and breakfast were absolutely amazing! The place is rustic and we met the most darling little kitty on the property. I would highly recommend for a quiet stay.

Its different. We loved using the Terrace, and had cocktails there every night. Roberto the GM and Chef, treated us like family and cooked whatever we wanted. Its home cooking - nothing fancy - but made with love. It’s close to the beach - so they tell us - we never made it - but not close to town. It’s a 200 year old building, so dont expect modern amenities. But it is authentic.

All staff were very obliging and helpful. Chef Roberto was at your beckon call with creating your own menu. It was like being at home.

Friendly staff, great breakfast and great location

SERVICE A REVOIR Le site est très joli. Dommage que le service n'est pas à la hauteur. Pas de machine à café dans les chambres, malgré nos demandes, un petit déjeuner qui commence à 8h du matin et pas avant, des serviettes de plages payantes .... Chaque demande faite à l'air de leur couter!

This is a lovely hotel, with some interesting features, making it quite unique. Our first impressions of the hotel was a little underwhelming; our room was quite basic, and not particularly spacious, and the decor seemed old fashioned and a bit sparse. That said, we had pretty much all that we needed, despite the fridge which wasn’t cold and the shower that wasn’t amazing. The staff however were just...

Room innovative, comfortable and clean. Breakfast very cool about sweets, not many options on salty

One night in Tricase for local visit's, nice hotel for a small city, the only negative point is the breakfast

I’ve stayed at Callistos many times. They always offer a good service and quality that is consistent. I highly recommend!

We stayed at the aparthotel. It was okay for the price. Nothing to rave about. Hotel staff was great, helped us with everything we needed. Breakfast had lots of options. Eggs were a bit undercooked. Got a massage at the spa. Felt super relaxed, but everything hurt the next few days. Overall good experience. If you need a place to stay in tricase this is a good option.

We stayed at the Callisto Spa Resort while walking through the Puglia / Salento region with Puglia Walking Tours. We had walked from Casto 15Km and were hot and tired when we arrived. The reception was perfect from the staff offering cold drinks, espresso and something to eat. I also had a massage at the spa which was fabulous. The spa area is very well set up, relaxing and welcoming. The massage therapist...

Cleaning and Front of house staff are to be commended for their excellent service and professionalism.

Great hotel room and very spacious. The downstairs pool was chilly and overlooked though pleasant to sit by. Food and drink particularly breakfast was excellent. The breakfast is made to order with an additional buffet table. Gym was a litle basic with dumbells up to 14kg only. Overall highly recommended.

The shower was blocked and they didn't fix it. The water came out of the room to the corridor. Regular and very expensive restaurant. Menu with few options.

Lovely stay in this hotel. Nice, spacious room, overlooking the sea. Dinner was delicious with lovely people serving. But the highlight were the breakfasts which were absolutely gorgeous - and we ate so much! Very special thanks to Giusy who served us every morning with a smile and a chat, she was so friendly and helpful and lovely, nothing was too much trouble. We would stay here again

Really good hotel as everything is high quality including the staff. Don’t bother with any boat trips as the one we had was not good value. They organised a wine tasting trip for us and that was fantastic. It’s called Castello Frisari and not only is the wine fantastic but the place is beautiful with a lovely meal at the end. Definitely going back to the hotel though as San Foca is great and if you...

We had a wonderful stay at Posia SPA and Retreat. The location is stunning, with beautiful sea views and a peaceful atmosphere that’s perfect for relaxing. The rooms were modern, spotless, and very comfortable. A special mention to the breakfast staff Giusy @ Domenico who were always smiling, attentive, and made each morning feel like a treat. The front desk team, Francesca, Alessia & Francesco were...

As soon as you walk in the door and greeted by the reception staff you know that that your stay is going to be special. Our stay was truly special. The cleanliness of the entire Hotel is faultless, every piece of furniture, decor etc is spotless. Our room was simply (but elegantly) magnificent. Comfort at every level re the bedding, nice spacious bathroom and the sea view was an added bonus. We didn...

Everyone that worked there was so kind and helpful. The hotel was in a perfect location, clean, comfortable and safe.

Worth a walk in from the street.

Excellent location for visiting Gallipoli, right in the historic center, 100 meters from the beautiful Spiaggia della Purità. Very friendly and efficient staff, spacious and very clean rooms, as is the lobby where breakfast is served. I highly recommend it.

The property is greatly located with proximity of anything in historic center. Staff accommodated us as much as they could and did extra Steps to make things happened. The breakfast was awesome.

Simply perfect. Incredibly stylish and furnished with great taste and attention to detail. Very committed staff and a balanced breakfast leaves nothing to be desired.

Standing location. The building is beautiful. Staff is friendly and the rooms offer anything you need and more. Parking is very close and easy to find. Lots of restaurants, bars and shops within walking distance.

The most beautiful hotel in the world.

Very nice, clean, conveniently located. We were able to swim, relax and see close by towns. Rooms were very spacious, 2 bathrooms. Beautiful patio overseeing the sea! Staff was great! Very attentive, professional, kind!

Amazing experience in the middle of Adriatic Sea quite near to Ostuni and Monopoli, staff were exceptionally nice , location is amazing and all three days spent were an intensive experience in Puglia. Grazie A tutti

Fantastico Fantastic We really loved our stay Everything was incredible

Nice location but…. First the good, the location is amazing, nice concept of serving breakfast in your private terrace so you can just roll out of bed. Breakfast was pretty sparse, fruit consisted of 5 grapes, 2 tiny pieces of pineapple, melon and passionfruit. First morning we were not offered any extras then we found out they do eggs, pancakes etc. when you are paying upwards of 1000 euro a night...

This place is heaven on earth and so unique. Beautiful room with the sea out 1 door and giant pool out the other. Service was top notch. Food excellent especially breakfast delivered to your private terrace each morning. Everything you could dream of including private beach.

The hotel was beautiful with quiet surroundings, the staff was polite, helpful and efficient. Also close to the airport and shuttle service is a big plus.

The hotel exceeded our expectations.  It is very close to the airport and the shuttle was very much appreciated.  The room was very large and very clean, with useful amenities.  We were pleasantly surprised that we had one of our best meals of our vacation at the reasonably priced restaurant.  Definitely a recommend.

The building is a bit old-fashioned but clean, with decent rooms. Breakfast could be improved.

Great place to overnight before flying out the next day. Our room was ready early and the place was large & spotless. The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. Our only complaint was some loud music and neighbors. But even this stopped by 10:00 p.m., so we slept well in a very comfortable bed.

Functional, clean, quiet, modern, and pleasant room. Friendly and professional staff: immediate shuttle service and a light meal at midnight...

This was a really solid hotel. The rooms were super nice and the beds were also comfy, the bathrooms were clean. The service was alright, but one of the maids took my father's wedding ring, but the receptionists were really helpful. The location of it could be better, if it would be at the coast. The pool was very nice and the diving board was a nice addition. The food wasn't that good but I can let...

This was a last minute booking on our part and it turned out to be an excellent choice. A good location within easy walking distance to the old town. The staff were really helpful and knowledgeable, helping us navigate parking on our trip to Lecce, making sure we took umbrellas with us which they provided. They gave us restaurant recommendations and other useful info. Breakfast was varied and really...

This is my second visit to the Hotel this year . Came in May for 2 weeks . And September for 2 weeks . The hotel is a very good in all ways . Spotless clean every day . Front of house is very friendly will help you out if you need information about places to visit . It’s a very modern hotel. I recommend having breakfast at 15 euro all very fresh and homemade on site . Beaches 3 mins walk from hotel...

From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with genuine warmth and professionalism that instantly made us feel at home. The staff went above and beyond at every step always attentive, courteous, and eager to help with a smile. The hotel itself is spotless, with a modern design that balances comfort and style beautifully. The location couldn’t be better close to everything yet quiet enough to truly...

Great staff. Breakfast was pretty decent as well. Not crazy about the location. Parking is brutal here as well. We drove to the beach each day about a 10 minute drive south. Beaches are some of the best I’ve been to. It’s a bit far from the old town so it’s a weird spot with tons of teenagers everywhere.

Great location, by the sea. Clean and nice staff. The swimming-pool isn't really a swimming pool, more a jacuzzy, but nice to be on the roof and enjoy the view on the sea.

Very nice rooms. They upgraded me to a balcony suite for free. Nice beach views. Roof top pool is nice and there is a bar. Parking isn’t too hard to find in front and on the nearby streets. 5 min drive to Central Gallipoli. Very friendly staff.

Nice hotel, close to the beach and not too far from the lovely town Vieste

The hotel is located among olive trees about 800 meters from the sea (a 10-15 minute walk). Other hotels on the same street offer a free shuttle, but the walk is actually doable without much effort. The exterior could be more well-maintained; for example, it's a shame not to take advantage of the outdoor space in front of the pool: umbrellas are always closed, leaves are everywhere. In the evening...

The room was decent and very clean, with a comfortable terrace and a well-functioning bathroom. There's a convenient elevator, a nice little pool in the back, and indoor parking (not for everyone), but they have another nearby. Breakfast is self-service, with a decent variety of sweet and savory options, but don't expect the savory fare of a grand international breakfast. The staff is available 24...

We've just spent 10 nights in this hotel. The breakfast food was far from fresh. The scrambled egg was burnt most days or soggy other days. Tinned fruit and pastries that tasted like they were left over from the previous day. The evening buffet was so bad that the amount of food left over on plates was shocking. There was no lunch available when we enquired even though we were told it was available...

Fairly average but clean hotel but a good location between two small, but charming villages. Lovely restaurants in Santa Maria Al Bagno and the promenade walk to Santa Caterina was lovely too. Breakfast is not good…tinned fruit, burnt scrambled eggs and some mornings there was a real lack of pastries - not really acceptable at a 4 star. It’s like the food was sometimes left out for day two if it wasn...

Nice 4-star hotel perfectly located next to the sea in a lovely little seaside resort town, not far from Gallipoli. Rooms are clean and functional. The breakfast buffet is good, there is a pool and a small private beach (but no sand) just across the street. The parking lot in the back is perfect, the reception staff was very nice and professional, housekeeping and breakfast team as well. Bartenders...

Good in parts Stayed here with a group of travellers from a Great Rail Journey tour. First impression, the sea front setting is quite stunning. The rooms are bright and have various outlooks, some have sea views, others no view. The balconies are on the small side. Although bright, there is limited artificial light when it comes to the evening and I could only use one power point for charging...

I cant really add anything to the reviews which are marked Good or Excellent. Its a long time since i have felt such service by every single member of staff, most places have one bad apple but defiantly not this place. i am sat here writing this trying to remember one bad thing but i cant. The only poor thing i could say was the parking on site was a bit expensive i have had to dig deep to think of...

We’ve just got back from this hotel after a short visit for my Special Birthday! Lovely location within walking distance to lovely harbour and 2 small towns! Room was ok but after paying for a upgrade thought it could have been a better view and balcony, (very small) Food was very orthentic but would have been nice to have more variety! Staff in restaurant very helpful but my husband tried to organise...

Our experience at Tenuta la Baronessa was outstanding from start to finish. The entire team, from the manager to the housekeeping staff, was exceptionally professional, kind, and always greeted us with a smile. Their constant willingness to assist made our stay truly enjoyable and worry-free. The culinary experience was another highlight of our visit. Each day, the chef prepared authentic regional...

Stayed in June with a large family - as expected on the pictures and description! Great large hotel garden with farm (bourses, cows, fruit garden, Olive Garden), nice pool with palms abs sun beds in the shadow. Calm! No music in the pool which is GREAT! We really enjoyed calm stay in the estate of 17th century! Apartment is in fact a sletate house in a form of white Apulia cheese - nice design ; anti...

%100quality great facility. Horses in the back was incredible. Well organised.

It's second time for my family to stay in this Resort and that explains a lot. Not just the apartment but the whole place is huge. The swimming pool is quite big and well managed. Indeed, i saw salvataggio guy keeps cleaning the pool and the sunbed all day whenever he can. He managed whole place very diligently. I also loved to stay in the swimming pool bar with some cocktail. Staff at the bar...

Everything was wonderful. The staff took excellent care of us from arrival to departure. We received good recommendations for dinner. The hotel rooms and territory are very clean and well cared. We started to miss the hotel and the staff as soon as we left. We will definitely come back here.

Really great spot that epitomizes the south west of Puglia. Lovely old buildings that have been renovated. Great pool. Unfortunately this was out of action the day we wanted to use it, but I still had a dip in the bambino pool! Horses surround the property too, so day hello. Great, grand main building too, with a lovely Edra lounge in the entrance, and frescos all throughout. Definitely worth a stay

We stayed for three nights in this wonderfully peaceful hotel and enjoyed every moment. The breakfasts were super as was the food at nights in the superb and airy restaurant with as you might expect a brilliant selection of wines. The staff were fantastic who helped us to settle in and then maximise our stay, always done in such a friendly and thoughtful way. I am so disappointed but I forgot the lady...

Vincenzo is the best waiter! beautiful place with wonderful foods and people beautiful landscape I stayed here for the residential program of speak up. Nice swimming pool and garden! Comfortable room you can’t find anything better! You have to come here to feel the real sound of Salento

Beautiful installation kept in excellent shape - rooms, gardens, pool. Very kind and friendly people, always with a smile or a helpful suggestion

Great hotel, wonderful staff excellent food. Beautiful grounds. Located a longways out in the countryside, which is no problem if you have a car, but a taxi ride to a restaurant is about 40 euro.

The hotel is 4* worthy. You do need a car to explore the area around it as there is hardly no public transport.

Very nice place to make a break, not to big, not to many people, not to crowded. Very nice and helpful people. The distance to the first nice place is close but the way is to dark for walking of biking so you always have to use the car.

Lovely Lecce! We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Delle Palme. Tamara went there extra mile with recommendations and assistance. Such a beautiful personality! Our room was comfortable and clean. Every aspect of our stay here was A+. Grazie mille!

A clean and contemporary hotel in a nice area. The rooms have been modernized - comfortable bed and nice bathroom. We enjoyed the balcony. Neighborhood is quiet. Parking on site. Friendly and accommodating staff. Takes about ten minutes to walk to the Lecce historic center. Good value for the area. Highly recommend.

A hotel with fully refurbished rooms, all new and clean, minimalist and comfortable. We had a midsized dog and when we arrived to the room there was a space set for him with water and food bowls and sleeping cushion. We felt welcomed the entire time and the personnel was kind and helpful, discreet. Parking comfortable, at the premise, against a reasonable price. The location is walking distance to...

Incredible service and great rooms. Good value and a short walk to the main piazza. Really enjoyed our time there.

The highlight of this hotel is, without a doubt, the staff. They’re incredibly welcoming and genuinely kind. Special shout-out to Chiara—I’m traveling with my infant son and hadn’t reserved parking, and they were already full. Without hesitation, she said, “I’m not letting you go find parking with your kid. Leave your keys—we’ll take care of you.” That kind of care made all the difference. The hotel...

Very comfortable stay. Receptionists are very friendly and helpful!

We totally enjoyed our stay here. It was super clean, modern and had a beautiful breakfast set in a lovely room with outdoor seating also possible. The garden looked wonderful with many pretty flowers and delicious looking vegetables as well as a large, clean swimming pool with a water feature and great areas to sun. Birds also happily chirped in the trees. Our balcony had gorgeous views of the gardens...

Rooms are very clean, and the staff are lovely. Made us feel very welcome

This hotel is a truly unique find. Most hotels in the 4-star category resemble more of a 3-star experience, whereas this one feels more like a 5-star hotel. It’s even more beautiful in reality than in the pictures. The rooms are exceptionally clean, spacious, and airy, with views of the pool, well-maintained gardens, and the sea, or of gardens filled with cacti and stone walls. The staff is fabulous...

My wife and I had a great stay at Montecallini for our honeymoon. The staff were amazing and are a real credit to the hotel, particularly the team on the front desk. Our room was immaculate and very comfortable, the pool was lovely & refreshing, and the on-site breakfast/dinner was delicious. It’s a short walk down to a local cove to swim (with a couple of bars too), plus e-bikes and buses to local...

Absolutely fabulous hotel. Beautiful decor. Wonderful pool with hydromassage area, set in the gardens. Breakfast provided plenty of choice and all servers throughout the day were very friendly and efficient. Room was large with good sized bathroom and balcony with garden and sea view and perfectly quiet. What made our trip special was the amazing reception team. Julio and Chiara, supported by Nicolo...

Montecallini is an absolutely beautiful hotel with amazing staff who make you feel so welcome. The breakfast is superb. The bedroom was spacious with a large bathroom and a balcony overlooking the gardens and a sea view. Giulio, on reception, organised a variety of excellent tours for us and car hire at a very good price. He always responded promptly to emails. Chiara, his colleague, planned a day...

A nice hotel in the center of Vieste. Good service. Can be recommended

Stayed as part of an InnTravel walking holiday. Great location for both walking and restaurants & bars in Vieste. Hotel a little dated. Breakfasts basic. Staff, however, lovely and bed comfortable. Shower tight and fridge didn’t appear to work. Might be worth noting Vieste doesn’t come to life until late. We found i gioielli di famiglia in the old part of town … Anna and her family couldn...

The hotel is nice and central to the city. The wife signal was weak. Quiet and clean and very nice staff

The hotel is well located very near the old town and marina. It has a nice lobby/reception area. The staff spoke limited English and there was no one available when we wanted to check out. The room was nicely decorated with a very comfortable bed, but we could not get the air conditioning to work so it was too hot. The breakfast was very poor. There was insufficient staff. The food was not...

Nice hotel and very centrally located. Parking right in front of the hotel. Very nice host. Rooms are large and furnished with antique furniture. Rooms with balcony and sea view. Breakfast was good. Can highly recommend it.

This property is very nice and the staff is exceptional. It is a bit of a walk to the beach
