“Enjoyable experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011

Hotel La Terra is well located to enjoy Ostuni, and a good place to use as a base for exploring the region, or for visiting the beaches.

Having got very lost trying to find the hotel, a call to them meant there was soon a friendly face who lead us to the hotel car park (5Euro a day) and then took us onto the hotel. (The hotel will also take you back to the car park with your bags at the end of the stay). The car park is only a 5 minute walk from the hotel for when you use your car during your stay.

Located in the Centro Storico of Ostuni, the hotel is excellently located for exploring the city, and for using the many bars and restaurants nearby, plus visiting the historical sights of Ostuni such as it's churches and cathedral.

Service throughout was friendly and professional.

Visiting during a very hot spell of weather, the air con in the hotel and room was efficient and appreciated.

Our room was a decent size, very clean, with a good size shower room. Best of all was a view across the city over the roofs.

The hotel, although modern, had characterful touches throughout. A roof terrace just outside our room, another elsewhere, plus the cave like bar with well.
Second floor rooms have some rather grandly furnished rooms close by, plus a terrace

Although centrally located, there was little or no noise.

Breakfast was fine. The hotel restaurant was not functioning whilst we were staying there - not a problem due to the large number of other options to eat locally.

If ever visiting Ostuniin the future I'd stay here again

Room Tip: Rooms on the 3rd floor can have good views. Don't miss out on exploring the old city of Ostuni

“Good hotel in great location...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 August 2011

The hotel is really quite impressive, meaning the building id beautiful and full of little quirky bits that u just dont see from a modern building...the restoration work really couldnt be faulted, and its lovely...

Now, the actual hotel... Firstly, for the money I would personally think that u should get a.bit.more.. Like really comfy pillows (they weren't), or a flat screen tv thatis bigger than a 19 inch (didnt have a tv remote either), thick towels, free parking, etc, etc...

That being said, there was nothing wrong with the hotel or the stay, just feels like there are parts missing that would make u really feel that u were in a boutique hotel.

The room was not tiny, not massive - perfectly reasonable. Breakfast had all the usual continential choices. Staff were visable without being annoying. So, yeah, good hotel, great location (not sure there are even that many other choices of hotel) in a lovely little town.

“Overall charming with some room for improving”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2011

The hotel is really well located. Right in the center of the "Città Bianca" . The staff is definetely kind, efficient, professional and attentive. Rooms are rather spatious (on request ) and wonderfully mixing ancient charme and modern comfort .The hotel restaurant worths a visit ; pretty good quality/price ratio . Few improving points would be : better parking facilities , fancier technology equipments (TV rather small, Wi-Fi connection unavailable unless in the common spaces , small shower ) .

“Do not miss Ostuni and stay at Hotel La Terra when there”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 April 2011

person found this review helpful

We toured Puglia in March. Many nights we had no set destination or reservations. Being off season we knew we would easily find accommodations, what we didnt know was what they would be like. We arrived in Ostuni on a grey and rainy afternoon and were amazed at the charm and beauty of this ancient white hilltop village. The Hotel La Terra is inside the old city walls so one must park a bit away in a public lot. It is worth the walk to the hotel which is set in a lovingly restored medieval building in a perfect location to wander up and down the maze of enchanting streets. The rooms are very comfortable. The pretty tiled baths are new and have good plumbing . The furnishings are simple and tasteful, the king size bed very good quality. The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast is served in the lovely restaurant adjoining to the hotel and it was ample and delicious. Go to this wonderful town and stay in this perfect hotel.

“Perfect location for exploring Ostuni”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 September 2010

Perfect location in the historic centre of Ostuni.
Very friendly staff. The renovation of this hotel has been very kind. Original stone features, beautiful sitting areas and antique furniture around the hotel.
Although it is in the centre I had a wondeful sleep here and found the stay very relaxing.
I would return.
