“Excellent value for money, with prices that don't break the bank. The rooms show careful attention to detail with simple, stylish furniture and spacious bathrooms. The balcony was a highlight for city views, and soundproof windows ensured a quiet night. Breakfast included warm bread that was simply delicious.”

9Verified guest

“Very central but not easy to find, due to Bari's complex road system. The room felt a bit spartan, like a hospital room, but it was spotlessly clean with a newly refurbished bathroom and good quality towels. No breakfast room in the hotel; we got vouchers for a nice café nearby. A very good pizzeria is open late just opposite.”

“Good, but the room was a little dark.”

“Exceeded expectations in many ways. Value for money was excellent; the location was perfect, a short walk from the train station. Rooms were modern, spotless, with a balcony for relaxing. Breakfast was delightful with warm, freshly baked bread and a variety of options. Great value, central location, comfortable rooms, delicious breakfast.”

“Great-sized room, great balcony, great kitchenette, great shower. However, the room was very hot and dark because air conditioning only ran for 3 hours per day, centrally controlled. We had to keep the room closed since the window faced north. Plenty of lights but not the same. Location is good, close to the train station (5 minutes walk), 20 minutes to the water and coast, and 20 minutes to St. Nicholas Basilica. The kitchenette had no utensils or equipment, but we could hire them for €5 a day; we were happy to pay but weren't charged at checkout. Aircon really wasn't sufficient. Staff spoke English and the desk had tour details and maps. Tourism is growing in Bari; there are free government tours, though little in English. Would return without hesitation. Great access to southern Puglia, especially Alberobello and Molfetta.”

“Room is very quiet, the hotel is downtown, good location in Bari.”
