Hotel Park Novecento Resort

The building is an old mansion tastefully refurbished. The grounds are very good and there is an excellent swimming pool. It is in a good location near Ostuni. To get into the main square is a 30 minute walk, or a 20 euro taxi ride or you take your car. Rooms are very comfortable with nice patios with views over the gardens. Breakfast is good with a reasonable choice and the staff are very friendly. The restaurant is only open for breakfast which is a pity as after a day sightseeing you may prefer to dine in but that is not an option. Reception staff are very helpful and professional. Besides checking in and out they also provide a bar service, arrange taxis and recommend restaurants. This a very comfortable and welcoming hotel with its lovely building and grounds. I would happily stay here again in the future.

We arrived in Ostuni on the 30th August and booked into a hotel that did not live up to expectations. On Saturday the 2nd we had suffered enough and decided to move. We were fortunate to find the Novecento and what a find it was. I was greeted by Sonia who showed me round the rooms and I made my choice. I then collected my wife to get her thoughts and as we drove up the drive, she said 'I want to live here!!'. The hotel is fabulous!! We were offered an immediate coffee by the lovely Anna, who made coffee, breakfast, lunch & rinks though out our stay. There are lots of details to admire. Reception is 'old English' and there are loads of quirky bits & pieces to admire. There are lots of exposed rocks that add real character and the common parts are very tastefully lit & decorated. The hotel itself is beautiful and looks like a traditional Italian Palazzo. We moved into our room with a fab bathroom (the shower is set into a rock-wall) and the bedroom was large, brights and clean. We also had a private terrace. The pool is gorgeous and as it is a small hotel it does not get crowded. The grounds of the hotel are well maintained and it also helps that it is only a 30 minute walk from Old Ostuni!! All of the team (Sonia on reception during the day, Giorgia late afternoon, early evening and Luigi at night plus Massimo are all delightful. Nothing is too much trouble and you are always greeted with a smile. Raffaella does a great job at keeping the rooms clean and up to scratch and Anna (see earlier) is a superstar!! If you want a wonderful, romantic stay in a fabulous hotel in Ostuni then do not look elsewhere!! You will not regret it!!

We only spent one night at this wonderfully atmospheric hotel but we will definitely return and stay longer. The ambiance of the place is like something from an Agatha Christie novel. Beautiful old building with immaculate grounds and a beautiful pool. We were in a superior room with a terrace. Very comfortable with a lovely modern bathroom. Breakfast was good. The main selling point of this place though is the wonderful staff. They were warm, kind and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. What a wonderful end to our trip to Puglia

Firstly, I have to thank the staff for their excellent service! All of the members of staff were extremely helpful and upon check in I was given a tour of the property. There is a lot of pride in this hotel, and guests are accommodated for. This is like staying at a beautiful Italian Villa. The room was very adequate, it did have in room air conditioning, although I do wish it had been a bit stronger. I’m sure if I had spoken to the staff they would have been accommodating in some Fashion. I’m just grateful they had an air-conditioning unit! The bathroom was beautifully remodeled and was very modern. The pool is beautiful, again it feels like you’re staying at a beautiful Italian estate, because you are. I was in town for a wedding in Ostuni, all of my friends who rented Airbnb‘s remarked that my accommodation was the best! I can easily see that this is the best resort in Ostuni proper! The front desk was very helpful with arranging taxis and answering any questions I had.

Beautiful lobby, comfortable rooms, calm environment and most of all, the best staff we’ve ever met! We felt so welcome and they were so helpful beyond our expectations. We are so grateful especially for the lift they gave us to the event we were attending when our taxi was late and also for the delicious cake they offered for our daughter’s birthday, the next day. Lovely Italian hospitality. Grazie Mille!

I can only say I have had the most sublime stay ever. made by the best customer service I have experienced to date. Many thanks to Marilin, Francesco, also Fransesco,Giovanne, Mia, Leo and Angelo. Apologies if I got any spellings wrong as they all have superior English compared to my Italian xx

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Park Novecento. It was our favorite hotel during our recent trip to Italy. What sets this hotel apart is the attentive service (even being at half staff), peaceful garden setting and beautiful property close to town. The service is top notch! We loved being greeted by Marilyn and the office staff every day. They gave us the best recommendations around Puglia and we were blown away with the restaurants that they recommended to us in Ostuni. In terms of location, this hotel is 5 - 10 min from Ostuni and an easy drive into town. The grounds are immaculately maintained, the pool is relaxing (wonderful to return to the pool after a hot day sightseeing) and the setting is serene. It was so nice to hear the birds chirping and to relax on the balcony each day. I can’t tell you how nice it was to wake up and enjoy our breakfast outside on the patio. The breakfast was plentiful and generous. We relaxed under a shaded canopy during breakfast (there was also indoor seating if one preferred). The night before we were going to leave, the hotel arranged a pizza for delivery for us. When it arrived, Marilyn noticed we were going to eat out of the box with waters in the dark. She went out of her way to bring us cutlery, plates, cocktails and even a lantern to make it a romantic evening on the terrace. Additionally, we had to leave for our flight at 5:30am the next morning and she made us a nice breakfast to go. We felt so cared for and it was such a wonderful experience to be looked after like that. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The shower is nice and the bed is comfortable. The rooms are a bit older but everything is very clean and well maintained. All in all, I would highly recommend this hotel. I had a hard time picking out where to stay when I was looking for a spot in Ostuni. I must say that I am so glad that we chose this hotel. This was the perfect spot - family managed, tranquil setting, close to town- and I am eager to return soon! **Thank you Marilyn and team for all that you did to make our stay so special! We wish we were still there with you. :)

The hotel has character and most of the staff are attentive and try their best to help as much as they can. The one thing that ruined our stay is that the Hotel is understaffed and they do not provide guests 24 hr access to the Hotel. Despite advising reception we were attending a wedding and we needed to get back at a specific time. Upon our return we were left locked outside of the front gate stranded. In my wedding suit I had to climb over the gate to access the hotel. An absolute disaster, and potential health and safety risk. My wife was distraught, we informed the reception the next morning and all that was provided was a mere sorry. They didnt even keep to the agreement of not charging us for that night. A real shame as the hotel had so much potential.
