"Grote, mooie kamer in Polignano. Alle basisbehoeften zijn aanwezig. De jacuzzi is zeker een pluspunt! Gemakkelijk in gebruik en leuk op het terras. De badkamer is wat aan de kleine kant, kan voor sommigen misschien een probleem zijn. Wandelafstand naar oude stad. Wij hadden wat moeilijkheden met het vinden van de ingang maar na even wachten en contact kwam Valeria ten hulp met de sleutel! Wij raden het zeker aan. Ontbijt zou het nóg net dat tikkeltje beter maken. Parkeren kan gemakkelijk in de...

"We had a wonderful stay at Tre Le Mura! Matteo was incredibly attentive, kind, and helpful throughout our stay. The place is absolutely beautiful, and the room was surprisingly quiet, even though it’s located right above a very lively and busy bar. The location is perfect, especially if you want to be close to Grotta Palazzese and explore the area on foot. Everything was just wonderful, and I would definitely stay here again without hesitation. I highly recommend Tre Le Mura — a thousand times...

"I had a really great stay at this hotel. The front desk staff was incredibly helpful, especially Doriana, who went above and beyond to assist me. They were available on WhatsApp and super responsive. The breakfast was incredible and the terrace with the hot tub was amazing. The room was very beautiful. Really great recommendations for the restaurants in town. I highly recommend this place!"
