S. Martin Hotel

Location close to local “ancient wall beach” and historic town. Close to the airport. Delicious breakfast. Stylish, elegant hotel.

Not staying longer.

We were in #206 and we were quite pleased with the room. It was spacious and comfortable. The morning breakfast has a nice array of offerings and the cappuchini were delicious.

We encourage you to do maintenance on the walls and ceiling where the paint is spalling from the inevitable moisture in the stone. It's constant maintenance, we know (we live in a stone house in Polignano a Mare), but it matters for health and appearances. Additionally, leave printed instructions (multiple languages) for the AC so that the light does not blink next to the matrimonial bed all night. That started about 3am in our room (earlier in our friends' room). It was so annoying we had to get up to figure out how to make it stop (we got it to be less bright, but it continued pulsing on and off all night).

The hotel has a unique atmosphere and is located in the best place in the city - in the middle of the old charming streets and right by the sea. The gentleman at the reception is very helpful and kind. Very nice and smiling staff at breakfast (with great pastries and coffee). None of our requirements were a problem for the hotel staff.

We would have appreciated a fridge in the room given the extreme heat outside. The only thing that slightly spoiled our impression of an otherwise perfect accommodation was the mold in the shower.

The location and hotel itself are lovely.

We had room 320 and there was black mold everywhere in the bathroom and evidence of it in the bedroom. We informed the front desk woman and she blew us off!

The bed was very comfortable! We slept very well! The location is obviously one of the best in Giovinazzo.

The shower was a bit small.

This is a hotel in a 12the century Norman monastery. We liked the architecture, the decor, the location, the staff, the food and the Sky Bar. Has a great restaurant and there are other good ones near by. All good value for money and great food. The hotel has a good selection of local wines. The staff can't do enough for you.

Kettle in room.

Location and helpful staff

Nothing

This historical building is beautifully decorated and a joy to wonder around. All of the staff were extremely attentive. We really enjoyed the breakfast selection and the location is perfect for wondering around the town.

The shower cubical in our room was very small and did not have anywhere to put products.

Beautiful building and nice outdoor setting areas. Everything was very clean and the staff was very helpful.

Kitchen facilities in the apartment were fair. No coffee maker. Refrigerator was not very cold.
