Hôtels en bord de mer de Apulie, Italie

Unfortunately this was a stay of two halves, and I wish I'd heeded other people's low reviews about the host's attitude before booking. The place itself was lovely. A cute, clean little room that seemed authentic and had some nice finishing touches. The area around was beautiful and it's a great location. I was excited to see the room description, stating a spa, billiards room and other amenities that would account for the higher cost of this place. I saw the warning that the booking was non-refundable but took a punt.... I was wrong for doing this. Soon after booking, I received the first of many messages stating the jacuzzi in the photo was an extra 209 euros, which was apparently written in very small print, the large fridge in the photos was just for show and alongside this were given a set of house rules including not being allowed to eat in the room! I didn't like the attitude from the messages and I tried to cancel, over 2 weeks before our stay, but was refused. Cut to the day of stay I was sent another set of rules, this time warning us that if we change the temperature of the air conditioner or any other settings then ”the consequences will be on us”, it also told us to re-read the rules carefully and reminded us we couldn't eat or drink in the room. Self-check in was simple, although on the website it states there's a front desk and luggage storage on site... There isn't. It was 39 degrees outside and 27 inside. I messaged saying that in the heat setting, 24 degrees, was too warm and asked if we could lower the temperature, she refused, I asked for a fan, she pretty much accused me of lying, saying it WASN'T too warm, and after a long and draining conversation she ”allowed” us to change it to 18 degrees. After this, I tried to be civil and she responded with some suggestions of places to eat and visit. We ”respected the people who work for you” as she demanded in the messages. The apartment was equipped with basics but for the price, would have expected extras like small toiletries or glasses for water. It all went well until the last day on check out, I suggested some things to make the stay better such as a friendlier manner, trash cans in the room and more toiletries, as this was quite an expensive stay. I suggested she revisit the description of the hotel and that she didn't send ”the rules.” She didn't like this. In all honesty, the woman, I believe, is a narcissist, and can't take responsibility for her mistakes. She wouldn't accept there were areas for improvement and when it came to asking for help that linked to her apartment, she took it as a criticism on her part and went on the attack. She sent a final message which was copied from one previously sent, so this suggests she's had similar issues before. I had to block her because she wouldn't stop messaging me! I have all the messages saved and complained to trip.com who have been extremely helpful. If you want to stay in a nice place, this is lovely, but there are similar ones out there with nicer hosts. Don't give this rude lady business. I never did get to play a game of billiards.

ottimo hotel sotto ogni punto di vista, a voler essere puntigliosi il parcheggio e' a pagamento all'interno della struttura, tutti i servizi sono abbastanza vicini. L'ombrellone e' in dotazione ma non e' garantita la presenza quindi bisogna prenotarlo ad un costo aggiuntivo.

Do not stay at this dangerous hotel. Our first room was old , smelly, and awful with a broken fridge, a kettle that could not be plugged in and peeling paint. The second room has 3 different paint colours exposed fires and a bathroom that floods every time the shower is used. There are holes in the ceilings, no staff apart from 1 young girl at reception. Rooms have the cheapest, most basic facilities. The toiletries are what you would expect in a 2 star hotel. No nescafe machine if you want sn expresso you must pay €3.50. The hotel is run down and clearly management care only for money. Private guest information is stored in a public cupboard. Maintenance is ignored, and breakfast is basic. The breskfadt consists mainly of prepared sweet pastry and cakes. A small glass of tetra pack orange juice us €5 If you wish to iron, you need to either iron on the bed or the floor.. The hotel does not have a bar that operates. There are no umbrellas or comforts of a 4-star hotel. Service is zero. The hotel only offers breakfast. No lunch, dinner, or room service. But the most alarming concern is the hotels noncompliance with fire safety. If there was a fire at this hotel, guests would simply lose their lives. On both the 2nd and 3rd fll Oor parts of the ceilings have collapsed. The police gave arrested the hotel due to serious concerns for staff and guests.

L'hôtel est très situé, très proche de la plage et à quelques pas du centre-ville, ce qui a fait l'exploration de la zone facile et agréable. Le détector de fumée a été placé directement au-dessus du lit, avec une lumière LED verte brillante tous les secondes. Pour dormir, j'ai dû déplacer la madrague de la chambre et la placer dans le corridor près de la salle de bain pour se débarrasser de la lumière, qui est évidemment inacceptable dans un environnement hôtelier. Il s'agit d'une question qui doit être réexaminée, soit en réglant le placement, soit en réduisant l'impact de la lumière. Globalement, bien que l'emplacement soit un point fort, cette question a fortement affecté mon séjour.

Reception bit unorganized, we were waiting for room more than 1 hour (check-in 5:00 pm, we called in advance around 4.15 pm if possible to check-in earlier, no problem, but than waiting more than 1 hour because they were cleaning the room). They had this calling service once room ready, for us they didn't have even papers ready (needed to search, so more time wasted), wifi was not stable at the room (lack of proper coverage for our part of the area of the resort), breakfast not bad, but seems to me like stuck in 1998 when it come to food choices. Room was clean, but bath could be renovated a bit, there was no minibar and there was cigarette left in the candle glass on the balcony, parking was good, location also good.

In one room from air condition running water down, we i told it in recipient she told me all i can do is to clean, In second room there were no air so we ask to move to another room ( in that room was pregnant women), they asked us to wait for day after, and they changed, but by the end they asked for change 20 euro And in the third room we noticed that the close room can look inside the bath room . We complained about it and they said the they are not the bosses . I refused to pay until the boss will came but he ignored us. I want my money back

Definitely a highlight of our 2 week Puglia family (of 4) trip. Regret we only stayed there for 2 nights - could have been longer so after 11 days of road trip we could just stay there and chill. We had all our meals at the hotel which were excellent (be it poolside or the bar). Breakfast (buffet+a la carte) was beautiful with a wide range of choices. We also went Go-Karting nearby which was another wonderful experience for our children. The hotel was simply beautiful and elegant. Its private beach club was also a huge bonus!!!

bel emplacement, dans le centre-ville de Gallipoli, hôtel complet avec piscine, solarium et salle de gym. chambre très confortable; petit-déjeuner copieux et complet avec tout le sucré et le salé, crêpes chaudes du moment ; navette pratique pour la mer. Je ne le recommande pas car il s'avère que je ne trouve plus de place dans mes réservations. Ah ah ah ah Raphaël.

Guy de maupassant odiava così tanto la tour eiffel che per pranzare sceglieva sempre il ristorante al suo interno per apprezzare il panorama di Parigi senza il mostro di ferro. Con le debite proporzioni, lo stesso vale per l'hotel bellavista. Palazzo a specchi fuori contesto in una città bassa ed a ridosso della città. Però... Dall'interno, godi di vista meravigliosa. Stanza grandi con tante vetrate che offrono uno spaccato della città e sull'infinito.

Hotel Montecallini has been a fantastic surprise, we loved it. We couldn't have asked for more: friendly staff, spacious and clean room, more than generous breakfast and delicious food at the restaurant. You may need a car but at short distance (max 10-15 mins) you have some shops, restaurants, beaches and Leuca. We loved spending the day at the beach and having a spritz by the pool in the evening surrounded by the the botanic garden.
