Avis Villa Ascosa

J’ai vraiment aimé cette petite hôtel privé Mais nous ne pouvons pas dîner et souper sur place Déjeuner excellent sur vin place

Très bel hôtel avec petite plage privée à Trani, ce qui est particulièrement agréable car les plages publiques sont bondées. La Villa est très belle et bien restaurée, elle est un peu à l'écart du tumulte du centre ville (comptez 30 minutes à pied) mais le chemin longe le front de mer et est très agréable comme promenade. Les chambres sont confortables et modernes et la literie est particulièrement de très bonne qualité.

Let me start by saying this hotel is a beautiful hidden gem. The staff were extremely attentive, kind, and very thoughtful. We were leaving before 7 AM in the morning and that evening they brought breakfast for us knowing that we would miss breakfast. The room was extremely clean. They have beautiful terrace with a pool lemon trees growing around the rooms. It was a very authentic Italian experience. However, you do have to ask if they will be having private functions as this hotel is used for private functions quite a bit, there was an anniversary function when we went, but that didn’t affect our stay at all. The main doors to the restaurant were shut so we couldn’t hear the music playing.

Language barrier was an issue / no taxis in entire town which was ludicrous. A friendly local took pity and gave us a lift to hotel

We stayed here Friday through to Sunday in June 2019. With only 7 rooms, a great waterside location with roof garden terrace and restaurant overlooking the bay, this should have been lovely. But the hotel seems, at weekends, to be essentially a venue for large private functions, so paying guests are an inconvenience. On Friday there was a private party with a DJ and on Saturday there was a wedding with a live band. On both evenings the entire roof garden terrace and restaurant were occupied by these private events, and the noise and disruption continued until 1:30 am. As hotel guests, we were politely informed that dinner could be provided in our room on Saturday evening. Whilst our room was spacious, clean and well-appointed, we would have been confined to taking our dinner in our room so as not to interfere with the wedding. For the entirety of Sunday morning the roof terrace was unusable while staff cleaned up. When we booked there was no warning that we would not be able to use the normal hotel facilities for the duration of our stay. We had been looking forward to staying at this up-market hotel, but for us it was a disappointment; our money would have been better spent elsewhere. Had our stay not been marred by the noisy functions, we would have given the hotel high marks. So, check with the hotel beforehand if there are any events, otherwise be wary of staying at weekends. The staff were friendly and attentive, however.

Fabulous personal service from staff generally however exceptional service from Gaia at reception. Beautiful location particularly at this time of year as so quiet. Staff couldn’t have done more for us, highly recommended
