Hotel Delfino Taranto

"I am surprised this hotel does not score higher for the staff alone.Every member of staff are incredibly friendly and can't do enough for you; from the handyman who sorted a faulty room key in minutes( most likely caused by the magnet on my husband's phone); all reception ( especially Alexandrio) and the staff at breakfast and evening meals. The breakfast exceeded expectations: cooked good, 6 different juices, cold meats and cheeses, cakes, croissants, fruit ( dried and fresh), yogurts- all of a high standard. The shared spaces are modern and stylish with a small but well maintained pool. We opted for a sea view and the bay offers plenty to look at. Our room was if a good size and decorated naturally. We stayed in Taranto for 10 nights so did feel the need for a hire car for some of the time but we also managed the local bus service to get to pretty beeches nearby ( 1.3 Euro)"

"Excellent"

Hotel Plaza

"The only good thing is the location and the low cost. Obviously you have to ask yourself: "what are you willing to give up for the price?" Breakfast (perhaps it is called this because the first ones who get up early eat something and the others don't) has some shortcomings, just look at the photos taken at around 09:00. Not all rooms have a mini bar, which is separate!! The manager or the person who manages the hotel would do well not to bring his dogs inside the structure, especially if they bark continuously every time a guest enters or leaves. I don't recommend it."

Palazzo Matà Boutique Hotel

"Without any doubt I highly recommend this hotel. I stayed here for 5 days and it was just superb. The hotel is located in the traditional part of Taranto with a fantastic view of the harbour area which is literally across the road. It’s a short, easy 10 minute walk to the commercial side of town. The rooms are large, spacious and well equipped with everything you will need. A super comfortable bed and a super powered shower. The free mini bar was restocked daily. Breakfast was excellent and the restaurant of the hotel is outstanding serving a great selection of Italian dishes, fresh fish and seafood at very reasonable prices. The is no ‘bar’ in the hotel but very attentive staff serve drinks promptly all day long to an outside area which overlooks the waterfront and tied up boats. Simply stunning! (and the local wine is very drinkable!) All staff are very friendly, attentive, professional and so very helpful. The atmosphere is so special. All respect to the staff and for the owner/manager Angelo, who does a great job here; a true sample of excellent Italian hospitality!"

Albergo Del Sole

"I paid 360 euros for 2 nights through a travel agency, having seen the amazing photos on the website and believing that all rooms have a balcony or window. Upon arrival, the very kind employee, informed me that my room was in the 2nd building, on the opposite side of the square, but the surprise was that it did not have a balcony, even a window with view, but had a window that when opened led to a dark staircase in the next building (photo). There were not even any safety bars and anyone could break the window or enter the room if you left it open to air the room a little. Consequently, I stayed for 2 nights in a room without natural light, which was very clean, but it was like a "prison cell". I was forced to have the air conditioning constantly on, which caused me to freeze. Look at the photos of the hotel, in a small seaside town, and imagine expecting to have at least a beautiful view of the square or the sea and being given a "prison cell", and at the outrageous price of 165 euros. The ending was with the "manager" of the hotel, who was dressed not in a suit but like a "Hawaian summer tourist" and told me in a very bad and provocative tone, that next time I go I should pay more to be given a room with a balcony. ....Not even an apology."

"Beautiful place... The property couldn't have been better located for visiting Taranto... Sea views, clean and well-appointed rooms. But the happiest thing, which drives me to write such a wonderful review, is the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff... Arcangelo runs the B&B with a passion that would inspire many others who do it without love... Greetings also to Pamela, who is also extremely helpful. What more can I say? If we return to Taranto, there's no doubt we'll stay at their wonderful property again."

Hotel Europa

Bacã Suites, Restaurant & Bar

"We have been this October long weekend in Aveiro and they told us that we had to have dinner at this restaurant. And we really loved it!!! The waiters were very attentive and efficient and recommended creamy rice and two varieties of Bacalado with a different glass of wine for each choice...a success!!!! And then the desserts left us speechless!!! Unbeatable quality-price!!! I definitely recommend it."
