A guest looks out over the trulli cones and the twin bell towers of the Basilica of Alberobello, from Palazzo Scotto

Where to stay in Alberobello: a 19th-century palazzo among the trulli.

Nine rooms, no two alike: five in the palazzo, four in its Widespread Collection, a short walk away. Our guests from the US and the UK book two to three months ahead, and May, June and September fill first. If you're planning, this is the moment to choose the room you want, not the one that's left.

Planning ahead

Nine doors, nine different rooms: a trullo in the palazzo garden, a suite under a cummersa roof with its own terrace, a balcony over the lived-in trulli of Via Monte Grappa. When one is taken, there isn't another like it.

A small balcony with a round table, two white chairs with grey cushions, a potted cactus and, beyond the railing, the conical roofs of the trulli

Why the room you want goes first

  • May, June and September: The months our guests from the US and the UK ask for most, and the ones that fill first. Most of them book two to three months ahead.
  • Two or three nights: One day for Alberobello, on foot. One for the hilltowns of the Itria Valley, Locorotondo at 9 km, Martina Franca at 13, Cisternino at 18. One for the sea at Monopoli, 23-26 km away, or for doing nothing.
  • Stay in a trullo: The Suite Trullo is a real trullo in the palazzo garden, for adults only. The Trullo Maestro, in the Widespread Collection 40 metres from the palazzo, is a whole trullo on two levels, and children are welcome there.
  • One base, the car parked: Dinner is on the ground floor of the palazzo, the trulli are a few minutes on foot, the valley is a day trip. You park once.

Getting here

Two airports, both an hour's drive. A railway station ten minutes on foot. And a palazzo you can reach by car, the practical things, said before you book.

At the palazzo reception, a guest is welcomed on arrival

From Bari or Brindisi, about an hour

  • By plane: Bari airport is about 55 km away, Brindisi about 70, an hour's drive from either. An airport transfer by private driver (NCC) can be arranged on request, priced by destination.
  • By car: The palazzo is not in a restricted traffic zone. There is no stopping on our street: pull up in Piazza Curri, round the corner, and unload the luggage. Then the Marinelli garage (we book it for you), free street parking at Largo Italo Svevo, about 400 metres away, or paid public street parking, no booking needed.
  • By train: Alberobello station, on the Bari-Martina Franca line, is a ten-minute walk from the palazzo, nearly all of it flat.
  • Times: Check-in 15:00-23:00, check-out by 11:00, for other times, write to us in advance. Reception is staffed 08:30-22:30: if you arrive after 22:30, let us know and we will send you the instructions to get in. Luggage is stored free of charge on arrival and departure days.
  • Palazzo rooms: adults only: The five palazzo rooms are for guests aged 18 and over only. In the Widespread Collection, children are welcome, and a cot is available on request, with a supplement.

The rooms

Nine rooms, no two alike

In the palazzo

Five rooms in the 19th-century palazzo on Corso Trieste e Trento. Reception, breakfast and NOS are downstairs.

Widespread Collection

Four doors in the old town, 40-150 metres from the palazzo as the crow flies, one or two minutes on foot. We say it first: it's the quiet side of town. Check-in, breakfast and reception are at the palazzo for everyone.

Mornings and evenings

Breakfast served by NOS. Live piano on the evenings it is open.

Breakfast is served by NOS, the restaurant on the ground floor of the palazzo, from 8:00 to 10:30, sweet and savoury, with fresh local produce, and a seat at the table for every guest, including those sleeping in the Widespread Collection.

Come evening you come home to the table: NOS cooks, and there is live piano on the evenings it is open. Then a short walk among the trulli which, once the coaches have left, belong to those who sleep here.

Breakfast at the palazzo: fresh fruit, pastries and juice on the table

Booking ahead

Book early, choose your room.

Booking early doesn’t buy a discount here, it buys the choice. Nine rooms, no two alike: two or three months ahead, the one you have in mind is still there, the trullo in the palazzo garden, the suite with its own terrace, the balcony over the trulli.

Before you book

Questions we're asked from abroad

Two to three months, as most of our guests from the US and the UK do. With nine rooms and no two alike, the room you have in mind is the first to go, and there isn't a second one like it.

It is served by NOS, the restaurant of the house, on the ground floor of the palazzo: every morning from 8:00 to 10:30, with a seat at the table for everyone, including guests sleeping in the Widespread Collection. Sweet and savoury, with fresh local produce. If you have preferences or intolerances, tell us in advance.
