Hotels near Grotta Piana, Polignano a Mare

Lovely small hotel near the old city and beaches.   Simple and well done.   With slowest elevator in Europe. Haha.  Only 4 floors thankfully

Convenient location and thoughtful service

Parking is easily possible for free at train station. Easy to get to hotel, walk 10min or TukTuk.

Wonderful service and comfortable room. What stood out was the great service and breakfast. The reception was super helpful in arranging dinner and activities

quite close to the train station snd easy to find need to walk one stair up with no elevator, made sure not to carry too heavy baggage not a hotel and no front desk, make sure to have contact by message to get the instruction yo get in the apartment the room is clean and balcony very comfortable stay anyway

The service was mediocre. Beach access requires advance booking, which wasn't mentioned at check-in but only when you're ready to go. Cleaning was also subpar. Avoid this place.

We came from France to attend a wedding and stayed at this wonderful resort. From the very first moment, Laura, the reception hostess, stood out for her professionalism, kindness, and extraordinary attention to detail. She organized a special welcome for us, making us feel truly welcome. Throughout our stay, Laura always made sure everything was perfect, making our experience unforgettable. A heartfelt thank you to her and all the staff for making this moment even more special. We will definitely be back!

Dino was so kind and it was such a pleasure to meet him and stay at his place! I’ll definitely come back!

Nice hotel and really good breakfast with freshly squeezed juice. Good and comfortable sunbeds by the beach. Nice private and free parking. The things the hotel could do better is that their staff generally don't understand English. We got the wrong pizza...The hotel's private beach and jetty were also used by local people, which was annoying.

Unfortunately this was a stay of two halves, and I wish I'd heeded other people's low reviews about the host's attitude before booking. The place itself was lovely. A cute, clean little room that seemed authentic and had some nice finishing touches. The area around was beautiful and it's a great location. I was excited to see the room description, stating a spa, billiards room and other amenities that would account for the higher cost of this place. I saw the warning that the booking was non-refundable but took a punt.... I was wrong for doing this. Soon after booking, I received the first of many messages stating the jacuzzi in the photo was an extra 209 euros, which was apparently written in very small print, the large fridge in the photos was just for show and alongside this were given a set of house rules including not being allowed to eat in the room! I didn't like the attitude from the messages and I tried to cancel, over 2 weeks before our stay, but was refused. Cut to the day of stay I was sent another set of rules, this time warning us that if we change the temperature of the air conditioner or any other settings then ”the consequences will be on us”, it also told us to re-read the rules carefully and reminded us we couldn't eat or drink in the room. Self-check in was simple, although on the website it states there's a front desk and luggage storage on site... There isn't. It was 39 degrees outside and 27 inside. I messaged saying that in the heat setting, 24 degrees, was too warm and asked if we could lower the temperature, she refused, I asked for a fan, she pretty much accused me of lying, saying it WASN'T too warm, and after a long and draining conversation she ”allowed” us to change it to 18 degrees. After this, I tried to be civil and she responded with some suggestions of places to eat and visit. We ”respected the people who work for you” as she demanded in the messages. The apartment was equipped with basics but for the price, would have expected extras like small toiletries or glasses for water. It all went well until the last day on check out, I suggested some things to make the stay better such as a friendlier manner, trash cans in the room and more toiletries, as this was quite an expensive stay. I suggested she revisit the description of the hotel and that she didn't send ”the rules.” She didn't like this. In all honesty, the woman, I believe, is a narcissist, and can't take responsibility for her mistakes. She wouldn't accept there were areas for improvement and when it came to asking for help that linked to her apartment, she took it as a criticism on her part and went on the attack. She sent a final message which was copied from one previously sent, so this suggests she's had similar issues before. I had to block her because she wouldn't stop messaging me! I have all the messages saved and complained to trip.com who have been extremely helpful. If you want to stay in a nice place, this is lovely, but there are similar ones out there with nicer hosts. Don't give this rude lady business. I never did get to play a game of billiards.
