    Gloria welcomed us with drinks & locally produced snacks and invited us to sit & relax while we checked in. Our room was so tastefully decorated as was the entire restored monastery. It is a true treasure with a walled garden in the centre . Our room had the original monastery floor exposed in the bathroom, which was a lovely surprise . Breakfast was a wide selection of locally produced meats, cheeses, breads, etc. Gloria was such a superb host she was so pleasant and helpful. If you book the deluxe suite, just rem there isn't a separate shower,there is a hose in the bathtub. Ostuni is just beautiful and I highly recommend doing a tour .

    Great reuse and decorating ideas for an old monastery. The beautiful town is replicated in the configuration of the facility itself with careful preservation of its originality The courtyard garden is a comfortable touch from all the city limestone walls and hard roads.

    Key access everything so don’t put your keys in your pocket just yet. Parking is remote and taxi is pricey

    The hotel is outstanding, I'd go back anytime, they could not have been nicer. The decor is fabulous, location is perfect, and the staff were brilliant.

    The room with the jacuzzi didnt have a shower which was slightly difficult, but that was the only criticism I could have.

    Unbeatable location in the heart of Ostuni. It's fairly easy to reach when parking outside the city center. The hotel is beautiful, with a relaxing patio and warm communal area. We received a very warm welcome and were explained about the history of the hotel. The breakfast was simple, but really nice too!

    The air conditioning unit wasn't working. Also, while its a personal preference, a shower unit would be great because showering in the spa bath is quite uncomfortable.

    Allot to like about this property situated in the heart of the old town and close to everything including dozens of restaurants , bars and shops . the hosts led by Gloria were fantastic and very helpful attending to all our needs .

    Our stay was lovely overall, we had an upgrade to a separate one-bedroom room. The hotel had a charming character, and the main building featured a peaceful, private courtyard that we really enjoyed. The staff was absolutely wonderful, and the location was ideal for exploring the area. Breakfast was delicious and offered a nice variety.

    Outside noise can be heard in the evening which which could be challenging for light sleepers.

    Extremely convenient location providing with a very easy access to every city's attraction. Very original interior design combining some ancient architecture with numerous contemporary elements and furniture . Room with the citrus orchard private entry. Good breakfast selection served on the replica of original ancient china. Good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Acceptable Wi-Fi connection. Very attentive staff. Great communication.

    Room size is much smaller than advertised and clustered with the furniture, which makes it hard to navigate around. No hooks in a restroom for bath towels. No shelf for toiletries in the shower stall. Too many uneven steps around the premises. All rooms located below ground level.

    Perfect small hotel with a nicely attentive host. Quality breakfast offering and lots of nice touches around the superbly furnished accommodation. A pre-dinner drink in the walled garden was a wonderful bonus feature.

    The communication from the staff was superb, help with the location of the car park and the positioning in Ostuni is perfect The beds are exceptionally comfortable! Breakfast was also superb!

    maybe tea and coffee in the rooms could be good? Check out on a Sunday morning is a little too early.

    Very large room, nicely furnished and decorated. Also had a large bathroom. The property consists of a series of linked cavern-like chambers formed by the arches of the structure, quite a cool layout. Also has a nice internal courtyard with fruit trees shading tables, although it rained when we were there so couldnt use it. The breakfast was very nice and the property manager Annapaola was very polite and helpful. Good location in the heart of the town.

    Fantastic location with fantastic staff to match. We were met by Francesco and offered us coffee or wine on arrival. The property is just beautiful, clean and very well kept and with luxury features. Like, a small swimming/jacuzzi right there in the bedroom. The A/C worked just perfectly and a radio where it can be controlled from a control panel and can be heard throughout the apartment. The apartment we had was door number 2. It consisted of an entrance leading up to the sleeping area, then the kitchen, living room and a stupendous bathroom surrounded by mirrors. Breakfast was well organised. With fresh local produce, served with juices, tea and coffee... All just wonderful...
