Hotels near Bari Airport (Palese)

Pros: Clara has been a great host! Always avaliable for any extra-need or question. The place is peaceful and beutiful. Rooms were big than expected and cleaning standard very very high! definitely a place to come back!

Pros: Stayed here as no accommodations were available in Bari. It was a great choice though. The accommodation is in an old building, making it authentic, but with all the conveniences. Parking was available in the court yard, nice restaurants at a walking distance.

Pros: Clara's B&B provides an elegant, cosy and comfortable base from where you can visit places of interest around Bari. The place has been renovated with lots of good taste, and the breakfast area in the garden is simply beautiful. Clara is very personable and she provides help in offering information, organising airport transfers, etc.

Cons: The window of the room I stayed in gives onto the road, so there's a bit of noise especially in the morning, but a pair of good earplugs can solve that.

Pros: The proprietress was wonderful. I arrived late, so she rang to find me a restaurant. When no place was open, she made me a light dinner herself. It was characteristic of Puglia and delicious. Breakfast included home made tart and fresh fruit, served in a beautiful garden. The whole experience was unexpectedly delightful given that I was just looking for a night close to the airport.

Pros: Kind people, clean and beautiful room, delicious breakfast with a variety of options in an amazing garden full of trees and flowers and parking space They very kindly cooked the vegetables for my 7-month-old son too. Amazing Italian hospitality at its best. I definitely recommend it for a stay near Bari!

Pros: I loved the owner which is there for you anytime and helps you with everything

Cons: N/A

Pros: Good location for airport . Comfortable bed, clean bathroom

Pros: Everything went well so Bari ... I am coming back!

Cons: Everything

Pros: Surroundings, room, staff, facilities, restaurant - this is all just too beautiful to have any complaints at all. We didn't almost leave the property for 4 days and only visited the famous Montegrosso restaurant for lunch which is a 15 minute drive. Our son loved the swimming pool, hot tub (in the room) and the dogs! Perfect family stay in the fantastic surroundings of Masseria!

Pros: The flat was very clean and had a nice old-school spirit. Nicely located and close to the downtown.

Cons: Due to Covid, breakfast (pre-packed croissant and zwieback) was brought to the room (in which eating was not really feasible) the day before, which is of course in principal ok, but then no "fabulous breakfast" should be advertised.

Pros: Everything works, more or less. Great location for old town, marina, main station etc.

Cons: Very noisy! Lighting could be better. Rain shower not working so you have to hold the shower head while bathing. A leak makes the whole bathroom floor wet. WiFi is on the slow side. There's a shelf where your head is supposed to be when you're on the toilet...

Pros: I liked the large room, het airport shuttle service, breakfast is fine.

Cons: The Spa ciuld have a larger outside space, the water of the pool is crazy hot, not healthy if you ask me. Wearing a swim cap is not pleasant.

Pros: The staff was very friendly, helpful and flexible. Early checking and late checkout allow us to met our flight itinerary requirements,. The dinner and breakfast was superb; time at pool was relaxing. Comfort. The location near the train station makes it easy to visit Bari. Transportation to/from airport was also efficient. Great value for money. I will definitively return.

Cons: n/a

Pros: Close to the airport , efficient shuttle service

Cons: Breakfast is poor

Pros: the flexibility

Cons: the breakfast could start at 6 maybe

Cons: —-

Pros: Friendly personal at the reception and restaurant. The room was clean. The hotel was close to the airport. Good for one night.

Cons: Breakfast has much room for improvement. The pool area only consists of concrete and artificial grass. The surrounding neighborhood is not nice.

Pros: Extremely helpful staff, they picked me up from the airport at 1am for free. Very respectful too. The room was sparkling clean. This is a business that cares.

Cons: The breakfast could be a little better. All the options were there, but a little higher quality would be appreciated. But at this price can't complain.

Pros: The list of pluses is very long. First of all free shuttle bus to/from Airport. Second of all- breakfast tasty, sweet and salty, so many drinks, coffee/tee/juices/water. Staff in restaurant very friendly. For lunch and dinner there is alacarte menu, which is not expensive- for pasta 8-10€. Rooms are very comfortable, clean, staff was cleaning everyday our rooms, giving us more cosmetics and water to the fridge. Pool was clean, water was hot. Good location- 10 mins away from the Palese train station. With train to Bari Centrale we were going 12 mins. I really recommend this hotel for everyone! We are really fulfilled about this hotel.

Cons: The only two minuses- in room there was smell of cigarettes(probably staff was smoking) and WIFI was not working so good, sometimes was disappearing.

Pros: Nice pool, big bathroom, great bed, pleasant garden to sit and sip something. Free transfer to and from the airport is also great feature. Breakfast are typical Italian but you'll find some bread, prosciutto, cheese and scrambled eggs. The restaurant is very pleasant. They cook good Italian food at affordable prices and the plates are huge.

Cons: The neighborhood isn't special. The sea is quite close but the beach doesn't shine ;) The view from the window is also depressing.

Pros: The room for 3 people was huge, the bathroom was spectacular, everything was super clean, the Wi-Fi was strong and perfect, the bar was good for between meals, the breakfast was big, the room service dinner was fast and delicious, the shuttle to from airport was fast and the staff was super friendly and helpful to all our needs. We had a problem in our travels and they helped us. We felt safe and cared for. We returned twice! The location is near the beach if you want that.

Pros: We picked this hotel because of its perfect location. It’s really close to the airport, we rented a car and we parked in the free hotel parking. They also have a free shuttle. This place is quite unique, Bari is only 15 min by train, there’s free parking, pool, free breakfast. Things that for us were convenient and hard to find all in a single place, at a fair price. The staff was really friendly. Specially the waiters and waitresses at the bar and restaurant.

Cons: Just a few small things that could be improved: - Humid/cigarette smell that was sometimes on our room (we didn’t smoke). - Bathroom door was broken. - Pillows could be a bit better.

Pros: Location, tranquility and overall facility.

Cons: There were no slippers for the bathroom and the room.

Pros: All excellent

Pros: Excellent Giuseppe is fantastic!! Very helpful and kind.

Pros: A 15 minute drive from the Airport Clean room Super comfortable and warm for winter A nice selection for breakfast Perfect for late check in

Pros: The property is well renovated. They gave a modern twist to an old building giving it character without losing on comfort.

Cons: The mattress was not so comfortable.

Pros: Excellent location for early Morning flights from Bari Airport. Very good restaurants and bars within 2 minutes walking distance!

Pros: The gentlemen at the reception, i forgot his name but very helpful guy. He wears spectacles and he did our check-in in the midnight of 29th september and he called the cab too. Good holiday i would say.

Cons: There was no good breakfast. On holiday all we want is good food and good sleep to have a good explore. But there was no good breakfast. You can definitely add more to the breakfast.

Pros: Hotel situated close to the train station that’s a plus! 15 minutes walk to the city center. Terrible and overpriced breakfast. The rooms are big but definitely not 4* hotel standards.

Pros: We went there for a weekend as a couple- pool was nice and room was spotless clean- it is only 10 mins away from centre- garden surrounding the pool is idyllic The only negative thing is breakfast- very small and plated due to covid

Cons: The only negative thing is breakfast- very small and plated due to covid

Pros: Rooms were spacious. Very convenient parking garage. Breakfast was good and plenty, especially during these covid times.

Pros: Really a super hotel, can really recommend it, the staff were very helpful and it was a great holiday

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The bar, the pool, the common area and the hotel environment in general. It was very big with a lot of different facilities. The hotel itself is beautiful too.

Cons: A bit slow for the morning check out. Only one person was working and a lot of people waiting to check out...

Pros: The staff

Cons: Dated , needs update

Pros: It's a big classy hotel in a nice central zone with adequately sized rooms and average facilities. I was visiting Bari in the middle of the summer and I am happy to report that the air conditioning worked perfectly. I particularly liked the staff working in their restaurant and those serving breakfast: they've been very polite and helpful, despite the stressful COVID rules. In all the Italian hotels I've been staying this summer - it's the same: the buffet has to be distributed by the hotel staff. This hotel handles it absolutely appropriately. The breakfast itself was absolutely decent and was served in a rather pleasant area with a nice terrace. The room was clean and had a balcony.

Cons: 1. Half of the reception staff, especially older gentlemen, are extremely rude. I wouldn't attribute it to the intricacies of the intercultural communication, as I speak perfectly fluent Italian. They constantly talked on the phone during both the check-in and check-out, almost throwing the key at you and getting irritated for any extra question, while forgetting any earlier bits of our conversation. The friend of mine who doesn't speak Italian reported exactly the same attitude. 2. The adequacy of the privacy intrusion by the receptionists seems to be utterly questionable. I was travelling over Apulia with a friend of mine. We rented separate rooms in this hotel (him on the 7th floor and me on the 6th). Returning from a lunch together, I've immediately received a phone call from a younger receptionist who saw us entering the elevator together - asking "when my friend is going to leave". Since I was alone and about to take a shower, I was so stunned with this question that first I didn't even get what the gentleman from the reception actually means. But I had to communicate to him the room where the friend of mine stayed, so he could check it. I wouldn't justify this type of questions by any COVID restrictions. This sort of behaviour and innuendos are clearly medieval and outright homophobic. If they question their clients for brining a guest (let me add, in the middle of the day!), this is absolutely appalling and inappropriate. I've stayed in Italy for work since April 2021, every weekend traveling to a new town, thus, checkin in for about eight Italian 4-to-5 star hotels by now (all during 2021-COVID restrictions). This is the first hotel that would make a drama for bringing a visitor to a room, which is ever more ridiculous since that wasn't even a real visitor but a friend staying on another floor. The world beyond provincial Bari has very much changed since the 1960s...

Pros: Fantastic beds, very quiet room, very good airco, fabulous terrace and breakfast

Pros: The only good thing about this hotel was the location. 18-20min by foot to the Central Railway Station (Bari Centrale) and Largo Sorrentino (where the bus for Alberobello departs from). 5min by foot to the Centro Storico and Via delle Orecchiette.

Cons: More negative things than positive. 1. The air conditioner was not working properly and when we went to the reception to ask why the temperature is going only up and we can't lower it, they said that "we cannot change the temperature but only modify the speed of the fan". This shocked us since the hotel pretends to be 4 stars and not to be able to regulate the temperature in the middle of July for a 4 stars hotel is unacceptable. We asked for someone to come and at least to make the temperature lower again and suitable for the weather and to be honest the man at the reception was kind of rude. 2. When someone was showering the whole bathroom flooded, because there wasn't a proper isolation and protection from the bathtub and the water happened to be everywhere after that even if we were careful. Again, not acceptable for a 4stars hotel. Plus, on one of the towels there was a hair. 3. Another super disappointing thing was when we wanted to go on the 7th floor restaurant (we read that there is a nice view over the city). When we went there, one waiter told us that the whole restaurant is booked for 'private event'. No one even notified us, or they could have at least put a note in the elevator. 4. Probably because of that, this night it was noisy when we went to bed around 23:30, having the fact that our room was not on the street.

Pros: The receptionists were really friendly and helped us a lot! :)

Cons: There is a second breakfast room on the ground floor but there you only get a slimmed down version of the breakfast buffet - quite disappointing. However, in the other one the service was bad, as they were understaffed.

Pros: The hotel is located in the centre of everything: restaurants, shops, historical things. Breakfast on the rooftop is beautiful with a fantastic view.

Cons: Wifi in the rooms is super slow. It was very strange the receptionist didn’t have a spare mask for customers during these times.

Pros: Alberto from the front desk staff , very helpful and wonderful Everybody !!! Thanks

Cons: During breakfast you can improve the sistematic, is not helping to prevent covid, and is very uncomfortable for the guest, you have to make a line without distance, tell in front of everybody what you want and take everything with your hands to the table…. Not covid free at all, i had been in many places this years and i tell you, you can do it better ! And every day guest needs soap and shampoo … thank you Thanks

Pros: It clean, easy and the location is perfect

Cons: The parking is expensive, our room feel old and the view was terrible. Its expensive for what it is !

Pros: The view from the restaurant is fantastic

Cons: The breakfast was good, but we had to queue to order what we want, normally everyone is simply helping themselves

Pros: Good location. Good breakfast buffet

Cons: Room corridors had smell of cigarettes

Pros: Staff, restorant service and unique environment in the hotel.

Cons: Carpet and curtains in the rooms badly need good cleaning or even replacement ( look neglected and derty) while rest of the furniture looks antique and very comfortable.

Pros: Convenient location for old city and train station. Good breakfast Very helpful staff

Pros: Close to the historic city center. Nice, clean, real 4* hotel.

Cons: no parking around the hotel (not even for motorbikes).

Pros: Rooms clean - night manager extremely assisting.

Cons: That so called breskfast. After complaining that : egg was cold, orange juice warm, coffee was spoiled when service came, as well as those panini was warm as well. But like a stone. Only warmed up - never ever fresh. Complain was accepted and fruendly staff brought the same panini again. 2 of them, again stone. Not even possible to cut with a knife. Very very embarrassing. I told on checkout - sorry Sir was the answer but gladly took my money for that lousy breakfast. NEVER had such a bad breakfast at a BEST WESTERN. That is by far a BAD WESTERN. Try to avoid, if you can

Pros: The staff was helpful

Cons: Hot water from the tap very slow, wifi slow, near to the sea, but not for swimming, breakfast is very poor,

Pros: Convenient location near the airport and the train station. Great customer service and breakfast served on the rooftop terrace

Pros: The receptionist were extremely nice and helpful, especially one girl with perfect English was very professional and kind. Room very comfy, location also good. Over all I would definitely recommend this place for a couple of days in this particular area. Thank you guys....:)

Cons: The hotel needs a serious renovation or at least some maintance from time to time. There is no breakfast menu for customer to read so they can order at staff.

Cons: Breakfast was very very poor. Almost no choice and Coffee tasted bad... When I asked for an iced latte, I got a hot latte with ice on a separate glass, so funny...

Pros: Basic room close to the sea and the airport. Balcony with a little view to the sea Huge tv Friendly staff Very good value

Cons: Not much of a choice for breakfast, but the restaurant is placed on the top floor and offers brilliant views

Pros: The reception is so professional and polite! Breakfasts are wonderful! Rooms are great and big

Cons: No such a thing

Pros: Amazing staff both at the reception and during breakfast. All very helpful and try their best to speak English.

Pros: Good location, clean hotel, good staff, breakfast is good for what you pay for it, nothing extraordinary.

Pros: The room was very nice and comfort. The location was great next to old city and in the middle of restaurants and cafes.

Cons: The breakfast was a disaster as they only served sweet goods, no eggs, no cheese or ham or any other savoury food. As most of the people we prefer to have a savoury breakfast than sweets.

Pros: Good location.

Cons: Bath water was not sinking away. Beds was too hard. Hotel needs total renovation!

Pros: Location - 10 min from bari centrale, friendly and helpful staff.

Cons: Breakfast - we stayed there 4 or 5 nights and the breakfast was the same - croissant. For me that was big minus.

Pros: Very great localization Easy ton find

Cons: Too old building, rooms not fresh at all and many material issues The wifi is not working The walls are too thin, you can hear the neighbors snoring The fridge is not working Shower gels of the previous occupiers still in the bathroom at the arrival (open and used in the shower) Cakes for breakfast taken out on the restaurant table since the night before

Pros: The location was very nice. It was easy to walk into the old town.

Cons: It seemed to be impossible to connect to the Wifi.

Pros: We liked the proximity of the hotel to the old town and central station, you can easily walk even with luggage. The room was big and clean and part of the staff very pleasant.

Cons: The worst thing was that the safe didn't work in our room and we were naive enough to leave money in the room and we got part of it stolen by the cleaning lady! Otherwise, the twin beds kept falling apart and the foam mattress that was on top of them keeping them together made like a ditch in the middle. There is no balcony, the shower head is fixed in the wall and can't be moved, thus quite uncomfortable to use and breakfast is a joke, no cheese, no cold meats, you have to ask for croissants and drinks and they serve only jam and honey and some kind of cake.

Pros: very helpful and friendly staff

Pros: Location close to main roads and town but in a nice secluded olive tree garden Pool with bar Staff Room private patio Free parking on site

Cons: Rooms are below ground level on one side, so not very bright/private

Pros: The swimming pool

Cons: The location

Pros: Well isolated place, perfect for relaxing time, especially for a great massage center. Delicious food, big rooms and helpful and polite staff.

Cons: The location is not convenient, you need to have a vehicle if you would like to go anywhere else. There's no a footpath for you to walk safely out of the hotel property.

Pros: exception transformation of an old villa to an ultra modern hotel, nice and cozy

Cons: good car parking but easy to miss the car entrance to the hotel

Pros: Staff very friendly Hotel unusual character old Villa sympathetically restored and furnished. Gardens containing 19th century Olive Groves Free parking

Cons: Access strictly by car with care from busy road Strictly no chance of walking outside grounds . No footpaths or local bus access .

Pros: Location was good as long as you have a car. The hotel itself is lovely, a beautiful old building with spacious rooms and the staff were very helpful.

Cons: We had intended to eat in on the night we stayed as we had an early flight the next morning, but the hotel restaurant was closed so we had to make a journey into town for an evening meal which wasn't easy given the amount of traffic you have to negotiate. We were not aware that the restaurant would not be open as this was not mentioned when we booked. The hotel also has a large swimming pool set in pleasant grounds, but this was also closed and so unavailable to guests. The weather was warm and we had intended to relax in the pool on the last day of our holiday so again this was another facility which we were unable to use. Breakfast was OK but not enough variety of standard items.

Pros: Great hotel on our way from the airport. Nice swimming pool, good breakfast. Room vas clean and spacious.

Cons: Not a great location if you're staying for longer.

Pros: Great property, lovely staff and beautiful pool!

Cons: Nothing! Exactly how we expected!

Pros: Room was clean

Cons: No WiFi, budget breakfast, poor location, unfriendly and arrogant owner, no glasses in the room, no cork to have a bath, this"comfort room" was far away from any hotel standards. NOT RECOMMENDED!!!!!

Pros: The view of the balcony

Pros: Friendly and extremely helpful spotless room highly recommend

Pros: It is a nice and clean accommodation. The property has a very well maintained garden. The owner kindly offered us a pick up service at the airport as we had a small issue with the car rental. Quick and efficient response to our requests.

Pros: Very kind and hospitality service.

Pros: William is the best. The breakfast is very Nice and really competitive

Cons: When i was alone without William

Pros: We booked this hotel to sleep one night before taking the ferry in Bari. We just wanted a comfortable place to spent one night. For this we were very happy with the hotel. It had air conditioning and a private parking space. The staff was very friendly and helpful. It was a good place for what we were expecting.

Cons: The advantage of this hotel is that it’s very close to the road and easy to find. But of course you can hear cars during the night when the window is open. But it didn’t bother us

Pros: I stayed here for work, which was nearby. The hotel is very good value, rooms were clean and comfortable and recently refurbished, it was warm in February, and they have a restaurant which did 2 courses and water & wine for €15 - simple food, but OK and convenient. Right next to a motorway / SS16 exit, so easy to arrive/leave and free parking.

Cons: If you want to visit Bari city it is on the outskirts in an industrial/commercial zone.

Pros: We were on a late flight into Bari so just wanted somewhere, close and inexpensive for 1 night and this fitted the bill perfectly. The staff were really friendly and the room small but clean.

Cons: It’s on a sort of commercial business park so not pretty.

Pros: Nothing in need of demolition or a bomb would sort it out

Cons: Poor location, dirty, meals were under cooked and inedible

Pros: Nice personal and clean room. Like it

Pros: Staff extremely friendly (Guglielmo in particular), they also offered us a small breakfast which was not included. Close to the airport; closed parking lot.

Cons: The hotel is quite old, it needs a modernization.
