Accommodation, position and cleanliness were all to be commended. Service was well below par which left us very disappointed.

Gorgeous.
Gorgeous hotel in a great location for historical centre, restaurants and beach. Check in seamless and all staff excellent. The courtesy ‘kart’ to collect us to and from train station was an added bonus. Only observation was that in the room we had (Anemone) the space around the bed was tight, however this would not stop us booking again…..we loved it!

we loved this property and exceeded our expectations on all levels. parking was 3 Euros per day and a 5 min. walk from the hotel. Rooftop patio for sunsets was great. AC worked well and shower pressure was great. Super convenient to many great restaurants as well. We would definitely stay there again.

We had a bad experience with the room condition at the arrival: bathroom was dirty, we requested 2 twin beds but we had a double bed. Parking is a real issue, I really don’t recommend this place if you are planning to move the car often. Staff is not very well informed on what is going on in the area and not good in problem solving. Besides this, the building is really nice and central in the old town. Breakfast is good.

Wanted to love it but not...
Great location and quiet rooms. Great rooftop terrasse for breakfast and drinks. Rooms are very dated and not really comfortable. Many of them are on 2 levels hence an issue if you want to go to the toilet at night. During our stay (April) weather was bad and rooms were terribly cold and humid. Bathrooms were tiny and freezing cold.

Used to be grand..not this time
Front staff indifferent about issues…noise… Air conditioning… Television… Parking… No call from the general manager when I asked the front desk to contact me…. Also this is the only hotel on Hotels.Com that didn’t reply to two messages directly to the hotel on the Hotels.Com website, all the rest do… it makes a difference when you’re trying to find parking in an overcrowded seaside town with an advanced message with questions…. We are world travelers and stayed at this hotel for six nights three years ago and did not have these issues… things have changed….

In Gallipoli - don’t look further, stay here!
Loved Relais Palmieri!!! Hotel is extremely well placed in the historic centre of Gallipoli - parking was offsite but extremely easy and they picked us up from the parking (although easy to walk to - when u have luggage)! Hotel was just adorable - plenty outdoor sitting space to enjoy the weather and comfort of the hotel. I liked Gallipoli but loved the hotel!!!!

finding parking is terrible. city police loves to issue tickets to tourists. without a car you would miss the best beaches. town overcrowded by young and even drunk tourists. a chaos. the city is overwhelmed by young noisy unrespectful tourists. in the streets zero respect for covid measures.

This was a great location for exploring Gallipoli. The property is beautiful, and the many terraces are great for enjoying a glass of wine or watching the sunset. The room was very small and only had one small window, so the room itself felt very dark, which was my only complaint. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hotel.

This was one of the best places I stayed during my 2 week vacation. It was very clean with excellent amenities and the staff were very helpful with every request. It was in a perfect location with breathtaking views from the rooftop sitting areas (there are multiple). The included breakfast was always local and fresh food and I made sure to never miss a breakfast! At the end of our stay, they transported us to the train station for no charge. If I every return to Gallipoli - I will only stay here. I highly recommend to anyone in the area.

Arrived to be told we were liable for a fine for driving onto the island and to remove our car immediately. There was a parking area over the bridge and walk back. It was 10 euros , only took coins and no they did not have any change. We were told to go and buy a coffee next door to get change. When we checked the bedroom there was a empty room with a bathroom to one side and a spiral staircase leading to a mezzanine floor where the bed was. I have limited mobility and there was no mention of the ban on car traffic on the Island or the spiral staircase. We did not stay. The front desk staff were young, inexperienced and did not grasp the problem of the stairs or the lack of information about transportation.

Dear Sirs, we are sorry if we have not been able to help you, but we did the best. We have also said to you that usually we have change for the parking, but unfortunately that day we probably had finished it for this reason we suggested you to go to a cafè. About the limited traffic zone, once arrived, we talked about it and asked for your plate number (in order to fill in a form and avoid a fine), so we think there was no problem for you. Moreover, as an ancient building, each room is different from the other ones. We have one level and double level rooms. Anyway, our web site mentions that some rooms have a double level and in Expedia there are some pictures about this type of rooms.

Pretty spot
Friendly staff and lovely riad style building. Would have loved a kettle in the room so that we could make tea/coffee and somewhere for us both to sit in the room other than on the bed. Breakfast ok - no hot food, but that seems to be the case in most Italian hotels. Fruit would have been good.

Hey beautiful white boutique hotel perfectly located walk anywhere. Superior room was one of the best you’ll find in Europe, spacious, clean, well decorated, balcony view, comfortable bed, quiet air conditioning, perfect water pressure. The staff especially Sirena and Davide were extremely kind, welcoming and helpful . breakfast on the upper Terrace is excellent compared to other European standards.

Damp and smelly rooms on lower ground
We had a room on the lower ground which we asked to be swapped as the smell of damp and mold was unbearable. We were given a temporary room; which was half the size of the room we booked online, we did not have space to keep our suitcases open and no wardrobe but just a pole running across the TV. Forced to pack all our staff once again we had to wait till 3pm for a room to become available. This was of a good size and damp free but the shower was not draining and blocked, no one to tell since the reception staff leave at 11pm and we took a shower before going to bed, before leaving we realised that our water bottle we kept in the fridge was not been refrigerated, maybe the fridge was not working. The wi fi in this hotel is very very poor, no kettle for tea and coffee in the rooms. The staff never informed us that they provided a free of charge service to bring us and our suitcases up and down the pier where our car was parked but we drove through narrow allies to get to the hotel upon arrival and departure and we risked to get our rented car scratched (of €3,000.00 excess); I only realised when I saw other guests using the service but it was then too late. The breakfast on the other hand was decent. Not a good value for the money at all, it has been very stressful.. disappointing!

Pleasant stay after unpleasant start
The hotel is in the old section of town and cannot get their by car , so if you have big luggage it is difficult although we did receive help from Matteo who was outstanding .We booked a standard room and were given a room with small spiral stairs going up to a mezzanine bedroom . This was not what i was shown when i booked the room . I went back to reception and told them that I am 71 years old and and cannot go up and down those stairs in the middle of the night to go to the toilet , as the bathroom was downstairs .The receptionist did not handle the problem very well . She said she can only give me an up grade room and I must pay about 60 Euros more per night . If i had known this was the room I was booking I would not have booked it . If you are elderly make sure you are not getting a room with Mezzanine and spiral stairs . Eventually after asking to speak to the manager I was given another room which was very nice . The breakfast was excellent and the hotel had a lot of charm . I would stay there again , but make sure I have the right room

Excellent hotel in great location
Stunning, authentic hotel Old Town Gallipoli! The staff were friendly, welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them! Our room was on the top floor (there were lots of steep steps so request a lower floor if mobility is an issue) we were not disappointed though, our room was beautiful! It was spacious with a vaulted ceiling and four poster bed. It was immaculately clean with great attention to detail. The terraces were lovely, especially the roof terrace with its stunning views! There was plenty of choice of freshly baked foods at the buffet breakfast. Parking was at the harbour car park, which was within easy walking distance of the hotel. We used the shuttle service to the beach, which we would recommend. We felt we found a little gem of a hotel and would definitely recommend it and would stay there again ourselves! Perfect!!!

It is a lovely hotel located in the old town. Good location, good service, very clean room. However, there is no parking space, and difficult to park somewhere else. It is only a good B and B but definitely, it is not a 4-star hotel.

Beautifully tranquil hotel with excellent staff
Relaxing 2 day break. The hotel was very pretty and had a unique fresh, Mediterranean design. Many secluded balconies and patios with chairs and sofas to enjoy a book or just relax. We were both very impressed by the friendliness and helpfulness of the distaff in the reception area. They could not do enough to help us and made us feel extremely wel one. A special thank you to Nicoletta, who was a wonderful help and made us feel at home immediately. We loved relaxing on the roof terrace to watch the sunset with drinks brought to us. The outside spaces were charming, as was the beautiful terrace for breakfast. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Overall we loved this hotel.
