Beautiful exterior, but rooms are quite old, toilets are not well maintained with rusty tap (in a 5-star hotel?) Pool was closed in end of Sep, but on the Expedia website hotel description, it says seasonal pool is only closed from October. Receptionist is not helpful nor friendly while check-in. It is not a 5-star experience that is expected. Restaurant staff is attentive though. Overall, do not recommend this hotel for this price.

Simply amazing
The hotel is incredibly, it is literal in the middle of nowhere which might be a bit difficult to find if your driving but I’m that also makes it very special being away of noise and crowds, it’s a place simple to relax and enjoy, service is absolutely excellent, if you want to have a completely different holidays, to really relax or to celebrate something special this is the place, you won’t regret it 😊

Fantastic hotel and spa.
My wife and I stayed for two days at this grand hotel and spa. Service was first rate and the facility is extraordinary. Food was excellent, although the dinner menu is primarily fish dishes. The spa was fantastic and professionally staffed. A memorable couple of days and we look forward to a return visit.

Fantastic hotel, ultimate Italy experience
The hotel is located a few kilometres outside of Taranto on a small hill within massive olive groves. Driving up to the hotel I first thought it is a small village just to find out that the village was indeed converted into this amazing hotel. Walking into the courtyard towards the reception one immediately got the feeling of grandeur and class. A feeling that was confirmed over the days of our stay. The room was very impressive with a cathedral ceiling and exposed brick. It was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. The restaurant is amazing with impeccable service and outstanding food. The prices are definitely comparable to good restaurants in the region. I have to mention the quality of service again as it was truly first class. This is a place I will never forget. Do yourself a favour and treat yourself to this gem.

What a great facility. Location and style like nothing I have ever stayed in before. Must have a car though. The hotel is located in the middle of nowhere but a close drive to Taranto, which was a great city to visit, and Lecce.

This is a definite if you want to relax near Taranto, Italy. The job of reconstruction of this ancient property was done to perfection. The restaurant is definitely five star and the breakfast service and food quality was unbelievable.

Don't go! this is my little gem!
The Hotel was absolutely amazing, out of the way, almost tranquil. We arrived very late and unfortunately the restaurant had closed but the bar was able to make us a snack, though limited. The room was clean and the complimentary bar was a god send as there are no nearby shops to go grab a drink., non alcoholic of course The breakfast buffet was as to expected and the pastries were irresistible. We did make it a must to have supper from the Restaurant, We are so glad we did. If you are going to order, don't order the full Italian courses, the portion are so large. you're not going to finish it unless you're Italian.. The staff are amazing pleasing and friendly. . never felt unwelcome one bit. We will be back!

An oasis in Puglia
I cannot fault this hotel in any way. The web-site photos do not do it justice. Everything was of the highest quality and spotlessly clean. The interior design was relaxing and sympathetic to the original architecture, high quality comfortable beds and linen, discreet friendly service and an excellent restaurant on site.

Perfect Relaxation
My daughter and I stayed here in the middle of a 2 week trip through Italy. A perfect respite from the trains, planes and cars. We had Spa massages and spent some time in the Lagoon. Lagoon, maybe overrated, but the massage was the best I've had in my 56 years! A bit of moist mold on one of the walls in the room needed to be pointed out to the staff. I'm sure it was fixed immediately. Probably happened because someone spent hours in the incredible shower with room for at least 4 people. Pleasure for sure.

Remote but peaceful
Relatively remote from Taranto (which we did not want to visit anyway). If you can put the industrial estates on the horizons out of your mind (actually easy as the hotel definitely looks inwards) then a pleasant stay. Staff very attentive and excellent food.

An amazing hotel
This hotel is the perfect places for couples and friends to relax. The room was excellent and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was decent as well. The restaurant was very good; we can especially advocate the pizza nights on Wednesdays! The only con was that the tap water was warm and we could never get could water out of them. Definitely can recommend this five-star hotel!

Beautiful architecture, but not a 5star
That the spa is not included is important to write in the description of the hotel. Also the spa is not up to the standard I have seen of 5star hotels all over Europe. The gym didn’t have good air condition. We ordered a deep tissue massage but got just oiled in and it’s by my experience not a 5 star educated massage professional hired doing the job. The positive side and stars of this hotel is the food and the service in the restaurant and pool bar. There has been a careful thought out in to the architecture and overall construction and gardens making it peaceful and elegant.
