Wow what a fabulous hotel! We stayed for a couple of nights after a friends wedding further south. Our room was upgraded as the SPA had been closed for re-furb however the upgraded room, the dining areas, generally the whole hotel and the pool were fabulous! The staff could not do enough for you and were happy to stop and... More

We stayed here for a few nights for a 'minimoon' after getting married in Italy. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left the service from this hotel was impeccable. The staff were so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Our room was luxurious and spotless with a free soft drink minibar. The food and the... More

Driving up to the hotel, we were terribly lost and not especially confident in our choice as the drive up isn't so pretty. But how deceptive first appearances can be! The staff was incredibly warm, the style of the rooms was beautiful, service very friendly and the price we paid for the size and style of the room was unbeatable.... More

This is perhaps the most luxurious hotel we have ever stayed in: spacious grounds, huge rooms, wonderful bathrooms, charming multilingual staff everywhere. It is way out of town, hence quiet and peaceful, and its superior restaurant frees you from having to leave for dinner, since you could not do better anywhere else. Terrific local wine list, too. It does require... More

The most spaceous rroms i've seen. The whole venue is so relaxing. Like a big resoirt in the middle of no where. Worst bit is that it does not exist on any GPS device. I got lost 2 hours in Taranto farms before i bumped into it by chance. But it's worth the effort. Service is good although they always... More

What a disappointment after reading the reviews on Tripadvisor and checking their website... We arrived at 13:35, a bit in a hurry as we knew that the hotel only serve lunch until 14:00.

This hotel is the epitome of style - from the well placed designer signs on the approach roads to the toilet roll holder in the bathroom elegantly and efficiently placed at exactly 45°. The elegant group of buildings that comprise the Relais Histó (Histó stands for history) are in part reconstructions that harmonise beautifully with each other and the surroundings.... More
