Dimora Intini - Hotel di charme

We stayed in one of the hotel’s suits in the converted Palace. With painted ceilings plenty of space and a hidden room upstairs it was a lovely surprise. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was very generous and good quality and dinner was so good we ate in the hotel both nights. The town was a nice stop and we would stay again if in the area.

Dimora in Italian translates into English as mansion. Intini is indeed a mansion, with the largest hotel rooms I have seen. Noci itself is not a draw, but it is well located as a base to access the major sights in the area, such as Alberobello, Locorotondo, Cisternina and Martina Franca, as well as a visit to coastal cities Bari or Monopoli. Intini was a very good option in the area, given the quality of the rooms, breakfast and cost. The bed was large and comfy, pillows were good, and there were ample seating options and storage space for clothes and luggage. The bathroom was large and modern, everything worked well. Parking is on the street, where you can find it, and the hotel provides a card to avoid paying the metered rate. The hotel has a restaurant where you have breakfast, a very satisfying affair, and dinner if you choose. Our dinner there was one of the best we had on our trip. The one big downside was our room location, which overlooked the front of the hotel. The restaurant, with outdoor seating, is in front and open all day until late, and they insist on playing music, a selection we found quite annoying, while the restaurant is open. Daytime is not an issue but, in the evening and later, after a long day, the music was intrusive and bothersome. Even with our windows closed, the sound found us. We requested it be lowered, which they sort of did (not enough to suit us) but that’s bad for the ambiance they want to portray. As this was a daily issue for us, it mitigated an otherwise very positive experience.

La dimora Intini è stata ricavata da uno storico palazzo del 1800 e si trova al ridosso del centro storico di Noci. La camera dove ho soggiornato era composta da tre zone separate, c’era la camera da letto, l’ingresso dal quale si accedeva al balcone ed il bagno molto grande. Era dotata di tutti i confort è sempre molto pulita. L’unico problema è per me l’assenza di un parcheggio per gli ospiti e ci si deve un po’ arrangiare con ciò che si trova lungo la strada dove sono presenti soprattutto parcheggi blu a pagamento (quelli bianchi sono pochi e distanti). La colazione, non molto varia, è nella forma continentale. Il personale è veramente cordiale e mi sento di consigliare questo bellissimo Hotel.

Hotel molto bello e dotato di molti comfort. Camere semplici ma ben arredate, abbastanza ampie. Accoglienza ottima e gentilezza del personale. Posizione centrale vicino al centro e ben accessibile con auto. Ottimo ristorante con ampio menù
