Hotel Boston is very close to the centre of Bari - this was helpful as we had been let down on another booking the Hotel boasts a nice reception, with free juice and water on arrival for guests, the hotel staff were friendly, the rooms are comfortable nice shower etc, nice bed quality, fair size rooms, the breakfast in the morning is delicious and you can ask for correctly made Cappuccino Latte in a glass etc, very nice, the spread of food has options for most people, cold cuts, cheeses, cereals breads, yoghurts, boiled eggs, scrambled egg, bacon the usual good quality breakfast materials and the room is pleasant with a help yourself coffee machine, plenty of juices and good help from staff, overall, the hotel met all our expectations reasonably priced for the centre of Bari, its a fairly long walk to the Tren italia Station but suggest a taxi, door to door, its much easier, I would not suggest you go by private car, parking is a premium in the area, best to arrive by taxi as its on a main street, other than that nothing to complain about 2 nights of successful stays.

Nothing

The room was lovely as well as clean & had a huge terrace (no furniture). We were only here for one night as a stopover to the airport. The facilities were fine with tea & coffee supplied. The location was good, central & easy walking distance to everything. Breakfast was very nice with a small hot & cold buffet and continental options. Has an area in front where you can drop passengers/luggage before going to park. If you book the car-park, it's just around the corner, a 2 minute walk. Many restaurants within walking distance.

The tv on the wall was fixed, would have been nice to turn it a bit as it was one sided.

We arrived by taxi provided by Booking.com, that was a real bonus, late evening on the 9th September. The location was excellent and enabled us to walk to all the main places of interest, we loved Bari. Our room was very comfortable, a good size, and provided everything that we expected. We had breakfast in the breakfast room each morning; there was a great selection of different foods which we enjoyed. The guest reception provided us with a bottle of wine and some fruits on our final evening. That was a lovely gesture and very well enjoyed !!

The safe in the room didn't work, but we managed ok. The hotel tried to put the matter right and no doubt it would have been fixed for the next guests.

I loved everything about this hotel. A quick 10 minute walk to the main piazzas, has a grocery store right across the street, large rooms that are updated and clean, staff was so helpful in answering questions, calling taxis, and allowing me to stay an extra night. The breakfast is probably the best I’ve ever had in European hotels. Caters to everyone (so there’s eggs, bacon, and the traditional Italian breakfast).

They overstuff the mini bar so I didn’t have much room to add my own beverages. But that’s not even really a complaint. The mini fridge was stocked with a variety of items!

Great location for exploring the city since the hotel is really close to old town and main shopping streets. Staff was very hospitable and their english was great. The breakfast was also very good and we really loved family connected rooms - big and clean.

Hotel has a deal with parking lot nearby. The price is 30 EUR but not per day. Parking time ends with hotel's latest checkout time (11:00). After that you pay additional 3 EUR/hour. So, if you arrive later afternoon and want to stay in the city after checking out, you can do cheaper with other parking garages.

Great location, walking distance to center and bari vecchia. Rooms were small but lovely, modern, and very clean. Bed was comfortable! They charged quite a bit for my dog compared to all other hotels in Italy, but they provided a bed and bowls, which was a nice touch!

The parking was more expensive than anywhere else we stayed (30 euros per night). They also didn't let us reserve, so when we got there, we could park, but there was no space for my sister's car (who had reserved another room). The parking has about 4 spots, so something to be weary of.

The hotel is very well located, in walking distance to the old center. The rooms are nice and spacious, and have everything expected from a 4star hotel. Everyone is friendly and ready to help. I loved that during breakfast there was the option for fresh coffee and not only the one from the machine. The breakfast was good, not very diverse, but much more than expected from an Italian breakfast.

Even though well insulated, there’s still noise coming from the trafic outside. The bathroom did not have any kind of ventilation.

We enjoyed our 4-night stay at Hotel Boston while using Bari as hub to explore surrounding sites reachable by train. We looked forward to starting the day with the awesome breakfast buffet, and returning to an impeccably clean room with fresh towels in the evening. Staff was gracious and efficient. Both the old town and the train station were within walking distance. It was fun peeking at the Bari Grand Prix on our way back from one of several tasty restaurant options nearby.

We have stayed here several times each year recently. We love the location of the hotel, the comfortable modern rooms since refurbishing and breakfast. Very comfortable stay, this time in a suite, as all others were booked. A lovely room and great service in particular from the very pleasant and helpful gentleman on reception on 15th Sep who even went to the trouble to fetch us a mini breakfast while we waited for our early morning taxi at 6.15. Outstanding! We will be back.

Nothing negative

Very good location for exploring both the new and old parts of the city. I did not dine at the hotel, so no comments on that. Breakfast provided a good selection, staff were always avilable to assist and very polite. When not eating at the hotel, there is an extensive range of resturants, cafes & bars within 10 minutes walking - including the old section of the city, which provides great atmosphere on a summers evening.
