Grand Hotel Biffy

We were in the area to do some family history research. Ariano Irpino was an excellent base, and Hotel Biffy was a great place to lay down our heads at the end of the day. Great beds, pillows and duvets. Breakfast was pleasant. Thank you to multilingual barista Jasmine. A supermercato is just around the corner for picnic supplies.

Great location, clean, large room, comfortable bed. The staff was very helpful. They spoke English. The breakfast is served on the rooftop. They make you whatever kind of coffee you want. The breakfast is mostly pastries. They do have cheese and meats but no eggs. You can walk to cafes, hair salons ,and restaurants.

Arrived after a two & half hour drive from Bari to be told we could not use any facilities because of a wedding , we traveled with our son on a Sunday with the town closed, we was on route to Rome. I think the hotel just expected us to stay in our room. I asked reception if a manager was on site to which he said no , I find that hard to believe with a wedding on. Poor poor services ..

Hotel Biffy is a beautiful property. The rooms are nice. The staff are professionaly, courteous, helpful and most speak English. On the flip side, Hotel Biffy is primarily a function venue. I stayed for 8 nights. Of those, there were events 4 of the 8 nights. 2 went well past midnight. 2 went until 2AM. There is no soundproofing for the rooms. Every plastic chair being dragged across the tile floors is heard throught the hotel. The music for these events is always played at a level 12 out of 10. Meaning, if you're not part of the event, you're not getting any sleep until the event is over. There are 3 event locations at the hotel: outdoors, a hall on the ground floor and a smaller hall on the 4th floor. There is also no advanced notice of events. You're just surprised to have the music start at 6PM and go for 8 hours. The 4 events I survived completely ruined my trip. Had I known the hotel management had no consideration for the other guests at the hotel when scheduling and controlling event functions, I wuld not have stayed there. Biffy will remain on my list of potential hotels but only as a last resort option. Which is too bad because it is a nice hotel in a nice area with wonderful staff. I kinda like to get my sleep at night, though and that's not guaranteed at Biffy.

Great property

Very clean.
