“Lovely B&B Experience in Putignano”
I chose this B&B because there was a restaurant in Putignano that I wanted to visit. The friendly hosts welcomed me warmly, and staying here gives you the chance to experience a traditional historic home in Puglia. The Italian‑style breakfast prepared by the couple was delicious, and the warm, homely atmosphere was wonderful. Sharing a table with other guests also added to the charm of a classic B&B experience. Although the building itself is traditional, the guest rooms have been nicely renovated, and the shower and heating were very comfortable. Due to the narrow and steep stairs typical of this type of house, it’s not suitable for large suitcases, so I recommend coming with smaller luggage.

“Everything was perfect!”
I didn't expect to love Putignano and its historical center so much, but that's exactly what happended. The B&B is very well located and the hosts were so welcoming and helpful. They will give you information on where to eat and drink, supermarket, drugstore, anything that you might need just a few steps away. They even helped me with my transport to Monopoli the day after. The breakfast was very good! The room and surroundings are clean and well decorated. My room had a nice balcony too! Very pleasant experience!

Very cozy room in the beautiful and very tipical historic centre. Our host was helpful, flexible and kind. Vegan options were available for breakfast like fruit, jam, nuts, plant based milk and bread.

“Authentic charm, warm hospitality in the heart of the old town.”
We really liked Santo Stefano B&B Putignano. The hosts were extremely kind, the rooms were well heated (it was cold days in April) and extremely comfortable. The breakfast was very charming and nice, every morning we woke up in a good mood. The house and its location in the old part of the town are extremely authentic. It’s not a remark, but it’s important to know: some rooms are reached by steep stairs. Parking is free very close - public parking or on the street. In April we had no problem with parking, but maybe during the busier season it will be more difficult.

“Charming, historic accommodation in Putignano”
Charming, historic accommodation in Putignano, ideal to see the city and also for a trip to the sea (Polignano a Mare and Monopoli). Lovely hosts who live upstairs. Breakfast was held in their dining room and was delicious and with a lot of options. Would definitely recommend to stay here!

“Quiet B&B with great access to old town”
Quiet top-floor room with a little balcony though we didn't get to enjoy it, but air-conditioning together with a fan saved us from the heatwave so that was good. Wonderful spread for breakfast. Great location for wandering the old town.
