Extremely clean hotel in a fantastic location directly in Monopoli’s old town. The bed was very comfortable, our room had a lovely fireplace, and the golf car pick-up/drop-off service from the parking was genuinely appreciated and very practical inside the historic center.

“We would love to return but would like to try the full facilities when the hotel is fully open .”
Stunning place to stay - we had the immaculata suite that was simply sublime. We enjoyed spending time in this split level sanctuary that worked well for us given it was low season and cool temperatures, as we did not require outdoor space. The decor was incredible and we ended out 10 day trip in Sicily and Puglia in the lap of luxury. It was my birthday when we were there and we were touched by the nice bottle of fizz.

“Two nights in Monopoli as part of Puglia touring holiday.”
Lovely sea view room with small balcony. Roof-top bar a must in the evenings. Quirky terraces and sunbathing areas to explore. Charming staff and everything beautifully maintained.

“Lovely hotel, great location, nice staff and we’d certainly look at returning in the future”
Very good hotel with loads of charm. The location of the hotel is excellent. It’s in the old town overlooking the sea and you are right in the thick of it, without it feeling too busy. The hotel has its own golf cart that will pick you up outside of the old down and take you in with your cases. The pool is small but so is the hotel, so it’s never busy and sometimes it was only us in there. The rooftop area is a real feature of the hotel and you can chose to sunbathe, sit and have a drink or eat at the restaurant which is very good. Strong seafood bias as you would expect and done to a high standard. Breakfast was average.
