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. :)
