What our guests say
A few words from the guests who made Bella Bari their home.
Can’t wait to come back — highly recommend. Thank you!What a lovely place! We had a lovely time at Valentina and Dave’s B&B. The hosts both went out of their way to help with advice on places to visit and eat. We had a really wonderful experience in Bari in large part due to them and all their advice. The room was perfect. The bed was really comfortable and despite the heat outside, the high-quality air conditioning provided us with the best sleep we had in Italy!
I highly recommend this as an authentic experience in BariThe property was in a perfect location in the old town so gave you a good sense of the real Bari. Accommodation was excellent — well maintained and recently renovated, a lovely large room with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Valentina, the owner, couldn’t have been more friendly or helpful. She really wanted to make sure our stay was most enjoyable.
Thank you Valentina and keep up with the good job!Great location right in the heart of old town. Shops and parking really close. Clean and stylish rooms. Valentina is a wonderful host, ready to respond to any request.
The owner was extremely helpful and always available for us.We stayed here for 8 nights and had a wonderful time. The owner was extremely helpful and always available for us. We were glad to have access to a mini kitchen and fridge to store any purchased food. The rooms were clean and newly renovated. Our room was also cleaned every 2 days which was much appreciated. WiFi worked well. Location was great. Loved being in the middle of old Bari to get a real traditional taste of Italy. Highly recommend!

A place in the old town.
You’ll find us at Corte Altini, 4, in the heart of Bari’s historic centre, a short walk from the port.

From the Port
Exit the port, cross the road and walk to the steps. Walk up the small set of steps which enters the old town and follow the laneway about 50 metres until it finishes. Turn right and you will see a yellow arch about 50 meters to the right. Enter and you will see another smaller arch straight ahead which is the entrance to Corte Altini. Enter and turn right and we are number 4 on the left!
From the Station
If arriving from the station take bus 50 to the port and follow the instructions above. You can walk (30 minutes) by exiting the station and going straight ahead to tree-lined Piazza Umberto. Continue straight onto Via Sparano da Bari and refer to the map linked to the photos of our property on this site.

From the airport there is a train which runs to Bari Central Station every 25 minutes and costs €5. Local bus number 16 which leaves every 45 minutes also runs to the train station and costs €1 but is much slower. From the train station follow the instructions given above.
