Palazzo Candido Tours and Activities

Excellent place to stay. Good value for money. It is a bit off from Bari and most attractions so renting a car is essential (but that is good idea when exploring Puglia anyway). The room was superb. Very spacious and a powerful AC that can keep it cool during even the hottest summer weather. The private whirlpool on the roof is a nice touch in the evening though we only used it twice. Family room has private room for parents and a separate for kids. Food is good and reasonably priced similar to most nearby restaurants, though it makes sense to plan meals at sites that are visited for convenience and variety. Staff has been very kind and caring. You could tell they took extra steps to make guests feel welcome.

The property is very unique and the staff helpful. However, no one asked us to register, people were very relaxed about paperwork and didn't seem aware of our stay as we hqd to confirm it many yltimes. Staff helped ua load our vehicles and took our keys but nevwe asked to settle the bill. About an hoir later while we were well on our way, they called to ask us to pay. We gqve them our visa number and info but the demanded a cheque, money transfer or cash. Terrible. My nephew who had hia wedding there ended up paying as they refused the crefit card. Not impressed!

There is some sidereal distance between the way the hotel is advertised and the reality. Amenities almost non existing, very cheap tv and shower box, roadside motel toiletries, AC barely working, slowest elevator and don’t even try to get there with your own car. You are forced to parked 25 mins away (at extra cost) and then someone comes and pick you up. The are is nice but the hotel is simply and unequivocally overrated.
