Palazzo Calò

What a great hotel. The rooms were lovely and it was close to everything including a 10 minute straight walk to the train station. Highly recommend this hotel if staying in Bari. The restaurant food was outstanding. The owner was so personable, she recommended a fabulous Primitivo to pair with our meal.

We have stayed in many places in Italy and have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Palazzo Calo the most. The staff were professional and friendly and very helpful. We stayed for a week in November, so outside the tourist season. I can only imagine how challenging it would be to install modern facilities into these ancient buildings. I think some tourists don't understand how challenging this must be and what limits it can impose on the facilities provided. In my opinion they have done a fine job. Our room was clean and comfortable. Our room had a loft bed, but if you have trouble with stairs, be sure to request a room without a loft bed when booking. Breakfast provided consists of cakes, croissants, meat and cheeses and some vegetables. Scrambled eggs too. The dining room is clean and comfortable and very well managed. Bari is our favourite city in Italy. We found Bari unique in that tourist hotels like Palazzo Carlo are nestled amongst homes of the Bari people so it is perfectly located to access the old and new city on foot. Memories we treasure were simply walking the tiny alley ways of the city mixing with the beautiful Italian people who live in the streets of this exceptional city.

Loved the place and truly adds higher quality dimension to the stay at Bari, especially that it’s located right at the clam and charming historic city. Special thanks go to Francesca for going extra and beyond, to make every details and step as smooth and practical as possible. Will repeat the stay in this great place whenever repeating the visit to Bari.
