Casa Calamondino

Roger was a host worthy of a 12 on a scale of 10! A model of what a host can be! He carried luggage, took care of laundry, gave recommendations and just overall took care of us. He made our Bari experience top notch! Thank you so much. Place was clean and spotless. Excellent breakfast.

Only negative is steps if you’re not used to two floors.

A truly special stay in the heart of Bari Vecchia Casa Calamondino is one of those places that completely exceeds expectations. Beautifully tucked away in the heart of Bari Vecchia, it is perfectly located for exploring the old town, with restaurants, bars, cafés and all the charm of Bari right on your doorstep. From our very first contact, Ruggiero was exceptional. His communication before and throughout our stay was warm, thoughtful and incredibly attentive. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and that genuine hospitality really set the tone for our stay. The hotel itself is stunning. Ruggiero’s background in interior design is immediately apparent the moment you walk through the door. The rooms are beautifully designed without feeling overly styled, with wonderful attention to detail, soaring high ceilings and a real sense of space. Everything feels both luxurious and incredibly comfortable, with excellent amenities and those little touches that make you feel you’re somewhere rather special. Breakfast was another highlight. Before we arrived, Ruggiero asked what we would like, and each morning it was delivered to our room at the time we requested on a lovely little trolley. The local produce was absolutely delicious and made breakfast feel like a genuine treat rather than simply another hotel service. But what really makes Casa Calamondino stand out is Ruggiero himself. There is a warmth and personal touch here that you simply don’t get in larger hotels. The whole experience felt effortless, personal and genuinely welcoming. We absolutely loved our stay. Casa Calamondino is stylish, beautifully located, exceptionally comfortable and wonderfully hosted. I genuinely couldn’t recommend it highly enough — and I would return to Bari in a heartbeat just to stay here again. A very special place, made even more special by its host.

Casa Calamondino was perfect for our short stay in Bari in every way. Ruggiero was an exceptional host who met us after a late flight into Bari to carry our cases to the beautiful room. He also gave us great tips for things to do & places to eat. The accommodation was in a great location in the middle of the old town. Not noisy & very handy. The room itself was very spacious, actually more of a suite than a deluxe room, with its own walk in dressing room. Beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was all local products, beautifully presented and delivered to our room at a time to suit us.

Nothing!

Our room was in the heart of the old town, and so comfortable. Everything looked new and we slept well due to efficient and quiet aircon.

An additional waste paper bin in the bedroom would be useful.
