Al Console Luxury Suite | Bed & Breakfast in Centro Storico, Puglia

“Loved our stay, small hotel but really cute. Great location & vibe. The restaurants & shopping center in front of the hotel. Only 12 mins. walking to the train & bus station. Helpful staffs. Highly recommended for anyone who would like to visit Monopoli.”

“We could not fault the staff, the room, the location. It is an amazing place to base yourself. Many thanks to the great staff.”

“The entire staff was wonderful and always happy to help us. Maria, Nino and especially Najlaa. Beautiful rooms right on the harbor and close to restaurants. We will return.”

“Parking is terrible but all else was great.”

“Friendly helpful staff. Excellent breakfast. ”

“Friendly staff and a great location. Old building but a great renovation. Little noise at night but right in the centre of restaurants, harbour and attractions. Good trade off for the location.”

“This is an unusual sort of quirky place with lots of good things and a few things to be aware of. The good: - It’s located just inside the historic center so it’s a short walk from a taxi drop to the hotel and staff are willing to come to where you are dropped to help with your bags. - The shower is wonderful - lots of hot water, good pressure, spray jets and both a handheld and rain can. - Bathrobes are provided as is water, coffee & tea. - There are only 3 rooms in the main building and there is a table for each in a reception area so you have a space to sit outside your room. Things to be aware of: - The bed was described as a King but it seemed small and short. - There is no elevator which may make access difficult for some guests. Thankfully staff helped get our luggage up and down the steps. - The safe was extremely small so if you have larger things or want to keep an iPad in the safe you are out of luck. - There is no breakfast room in the hotel but the owner has a cafe that is very close. It does however mean walking there and we had some very stormy days. While the coffee and pastries were good, the rest of the food was not (e.g., fruit that was not yet ripe but served anyway, a very burnt omelette). What we did really like about the cafe was that it was usually full of locals so we experienced a less touristy slice of Italy. On balance it was a good pick for us but the quirky features meant we couldn’t rate it more than a 3/5.”

“Good central Location on the port. Comfortable room. Water replenished every day. Breakfast at nearby cafe was very good. Nice small rooftop although only open in afternoon. Check in was ready early for us. Host was very helpful. Clear glass shower room in bedroom which was unusual.because on a busy road it was noisy at night but it didn’t put us off. ”

“Wonderful clean and spacious flat walking to everything. 5 minute walk to train station and ferry and located on great shopping street next to old town. I would highly recommend. Very comfortable and even an ocean view and breeze! ”

“What a fantastic stay... loved the seaport view from the bathroom and the sitting area. Even though it’s right in the heart of everything, it was peaceful. The bed was spacious and comfortable, the air conditioning worked flawlessly, and the rooftop is the perfect spot to unwind. The room itself is beautifully designed, with soaring ceilings, elegant window coverings, and a stunning, modern bathroom. The multi-head glass shower enclosure with built-in LED lighting felt like a spa experience. Nino and Beatrice were gracious, professional, and welcoming. The off-site breakfast is just a 30-second stroll into the main square and was hands down the best out of 10 different stays during an 18-day whirlwind through Puglia. This quaint little hotel, with its stunning views of the port, was a true highlight. A beautiful boutique hotel. **Grazie di cuore, Nino!** ”
