Rude staff, zero service, questionable security. Overpriced for what it is
Pros:

The location and once you are inside the room - its great

Cons:

The service is below sub-par. We asked if we could store our luggage- however it turns put storing only possible after 8 am (not a minute before), and weekend breakfast is also from 8 am (not a minute before). They dont have a solution for esrly checkout breakfast.

Checking is through an app (have we needed one more to download?) and a tedious registration. Though an email prior to arrival say to ring the bell when you arrive - this doesnt work. There are actually 2 doors next ro each other with codes - the actual door is on the right.

There was a lady once standing outside of rhe door stating that she is from the Office of the palazzo, however she couldnt get the code right - and wanted to enter. (Questionnable security).

I would say its amazing location - but priced as a hotel, however they are rude and offer no service whatsoever. You can have the same location Airbnb and better prices at any given time - so dont bother with this.

Ideal location, comfortable modern room, slightly impersonal
Pros:

Location, location, location

Cons:

No reception, all automated. You can’t arrive earlier than check in just to drop bags off. Early drop off of bags is 9kms away.

Mauvaise expérience, je ne le recommanderai pas !
Pros:

Confort des chambres et emplacement.

Cons:

Absence de réception.
Obligé de s’inscrire sur un site dédié avec des informations erronées.
C’est juste une pompe à fric et que des problèmes avec les codes erronés, les guidages également erronées guidant dans des mauvais établissements qui leur appartiennent aussi …
De nombreuses personnes totalement perdues …
Ce matin une erreur de code ( ça peut arriver a totalement enfermé dehors en bloquant notre clavier pour le code .
Heureusement dépannés par la femme de ménage qui a été appelée par une personne du PDJ à qui nous avons demandé de l’aide .
Apparemment ces problèmes viennent de nous qui ne savons pas nous servir de l’application.
Ils devaient rectifier les erreurs mais au vu des commentaires précédents, rien n’a été corrigé !😡
Heureusement nous sommes toujours arrivés à résoudre les problèmes mais avec beaucoup de pertes de temps et d’énervement.
Facebook vous mentez , il ne s’agit pas d’un hotel mais de RBNB !
Honteux !
Dommage car l’emplacement, les chambres ainsi que PDJ corrects .
Je ne comprends franchement pas la note globale annoncée .

Good location. Good room.
Pros:

There was an app to download to access room but that all worked smoothly. Room was small but had everything we needed. Good location and useful to have baggage storage before we could get into the room though this is a different location maybe 5 minutes away. Left too early for the breakfast.

Cons:

The black sinks showed lots of limescale which made it appear dirty.

We really enjoyed our experience at Palazzo Gatto Bianco and would definitely come back!
Pros:

Overall, our experience with Palazzo Gatto Bianco was very positive. Location of the hotel is perfect (10-15min from the train station, 2min from the main shopping street, 5min from the old town). The staff was very helpful and responsive via booking chat. We really appreciated the opportunity to leave our luggage in the main office before our check-in and after check-out. We really liked that everything was managed by an app (entering through the main door and to the room), however, we know that it might be challenging for less tech-savvy guests.

Cons:

We think there is room for improvement in the breakfast menu. We came down for breakfast around 9:00 am and there was already no hot food left (scrambled eggs, bacon). The selection is quite limited, and not everything was tasty. Additionally, the room was lacking a proper duvet.

De paso por Bari, una ciudad increíble, no así el alojamiento, la falta de atención humana se nota en estas desprolijida
Pros:

Buena ubicación, bien el desayuno

Cons:

No me gusto que nos dejaran casi 40’ afuera con las valijas esperando que nos proporcionen las claves de ingreso, la habitación era pequeña y no tenía como calentar agua, solo la cafetera
