Excellent room, all around. Very fun and stylish, as was the whole facility. Location was perfect; secure back entrance opens directly into the historic center, and just minutes walk to attractions and food/drink. Our room had a balcony, and overlooked the road inside the walls. I would recommend a balcony room for this purpose. The balcony was large, with 2 chairs and a table. There are also pleasant looking outside lounge areas on each floor. Although the downstairs area includes a bar and restaurant, the soundproofing is exceptional; one night, we returned to the hotel and very loud EDM music was playing in the bar, but none of the sound leaked into our room. For the season, the room's climate control had been set to a minimum 20 degrees, which was too warm for me, so we asked the reception desk and she turned off the limiter to our room and we were able to adjust the minimum and maximum at will. (A cool thing to know!) Breakfast was ordered from a menu, with abundant choices, and served quickly. Bacon and eggs was on the daily menu, and it was a treat; at least 3 or 4 eggs, fluffily scrambled, with yummy toast and 3 strips of American-style bacon.

This hotel is a little gem. We picked it up blindly, and stayed for 2 (not consecutive) nights - and we were far from disappointed: super clean, comfortable rooms, polite and helpful staff (btw - our hosts speak very good English, which was completely different from our recent experience in Sicily - to our surprise @a large & expensive hotel), reserved parking spot, excellent breakfast. This is the first “10” rating that I gave on Booking, and please believe me I am a very picky guest. :)

We absolutely loved our recent stay in Hotel Sciali. The rooms we had we perfect for ourselves and our 3 children. They were modern, clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Breakfast was my children's favourite part of the day with so much selection and the beach facilities were top class. Overall our stay in Vieste was amazing & we will certainly be back!

FAQs about hotels in Apulia

Rich Legacy and Natural Beauty

One of the richest archaeological regions in Italy, Puglia has received the influx from Greeks, Romans, Goths, Lombards, Byzantines, Normans and Spanish, amongst others. Together with an unusual and amazing landscape, Puglia is an Italian must!

With lower mountains than the rest of the country, it mixes fertile tablelands with dry landscape, rocky plateaus, and green hills. Kissed by the Adriatic and Ionian seas, its crystalline waters, rocky inlets and small sandy coves, well deserves a stay in some of the Puglia hotels on the beach.

Don’t miss the beautiful promontory of Gargano, nor Lecce’s stunning Baroque historic centre. Alberobello’s ‘trulli’ stone houses are a picturesque must. Being Apulia’s capital, Bari offers a number of cultural offer highlights as well as a lively nightlife, also famous in the summer resort of Gallipoli.

Its food is probably one of the best kept Italian secrets. The spaghetti with sea urchins is a typical delicious dish, while the ‘burrata’ cheese melts in your mouth with its creamy centre. You should also try the black olives, the ‘orecchiette’ pasta, and the amazing wines!

Whether you look for Puglia hotels with 5 stars, B&Bs or private villas, don’t miss the wide offer available on Booking.com!

Amazing location. A pleasant option to use the hotel transfer to the beach. The hotel has a dedicated section on the beach with umbrellas for hotel guests. The pool at the hotel is very large and clean. The food is absolutely amazing. For breakfast there is a great selection of delicious and fresh food, great cakes and pastries. Even the staff will fix you a fresh coffee at the bar in the morning. I recommend ordering with half board, dinner was served 4 course menu. Excellent choice of Apulia cuisine. Every night we tasted a bit of southern Italy. We had an amazing time staying here

Me and my boyfriend stayed for a long weekend in May at this beautiful, truly private, magical place and we had the best time. The people, especially the host, Adriano, were extremely kind, warm and welcoming, it was hard to leave. The property is stunning, a dreamy place with history, the rooms we saw (we had to switch at some point) were very classy and beautiful. The perfect place to charge batteries, also, incredible food. I am absolutely thrilled and will hopefully be able to come back some time!

Three swimming pools and a short trip to the private beach, super easy and enjoyable. Great location, 10mins from Ostuni where there are plenty of restaurants and bars and we also drove down the coast to beach clubs and other beautiful towns like Monopoli. We had a great stay!

Everything. It was absolutely beautiful!!! We hired a car but we actually didn’t leave the Masseria for 3 days because everything was so gorgeous. The pool is so great for a toddler with the shallow walk in entrance. The food is divine. The drinks were great. The staff were wonderful. The shuttle to the beach is great. For a hotel that’s so good with kids and with a little kiddie play area splash park, it felt so adult and so gorgeous.

A day trip to Bari is probably enough if you just want to experience the old part of town. The rest of Bari is very typical busy city that is fringed by high density shipping yards & industrial zones so its pretty rough and in general lacks the character of places like Napoli or Rome. I've been to many places in Italy I wouldn't go back to Bari.

Polignano a Mare is a stunning place. Not too far on the train from the city of Bari. If you like a quieter town in the off season, this is the place for you. It has stunning costal views and great places to eat. Definitely put it on your bucket list even if you only have a few hours to spare. I have based myself here for 5 days without a car and have been able to see many places from here, Bari, Monopoli, Alberello, Locorotondo to name a few.

If you like exploring a city by walking, it's an excellent choice for you. You are within 10-15 minutes walk to most sites of interest in Brindisi if you stay in the historical centre. And it's a good base to use for visiting the surrounding area..Lecce, Oria, Otranto, etc. I especially enjoyed walks around the harbour and taking a ferry across to the Monument to the Sailor, having a coffee & pastry at Valentino Café just behind the monument.

I loved the stay here. It was accessible on foot, the weather was great, (September.). The locals were friendly. The environment was beautiful and greenery edged around the lovely architecture. Its a hidden gem with a heartbeat of Catholicism within its foundations due to the site offered to Pilgrims in honour of the faith and Padre Pio. Do visit if you can!

A delightful small city with an undeveloped historic centre on an island. Good train connections to Bari and Lecce, less so to Naples. Convenient for excursions to Matera, Alberobello (trulli houses) and the southern Puglian countryside. Taranto cathedral full of pietra dura and, in the crypt, medieval frescos. Interesting Archaeological Museum with Greek and Roman finds, especially Greek black and orange vases and Roman mosaics.

For those, who enjoy Italian history and architecture, Foggia is a place to avoid. Its historical centre is in the poorest condition compared to 20 other cities in Puglia we visited during this trip: lots of decrepit buildings with walls covered in graffiti and dirty streets. As a "basecamp" for driving around and visiting other cities in northern Puglia it served us well
