Da Intini

We recently stayed at the Barion Hotel for three nights. Overall, our experience was just okay—not terrible, but definitely not great either. One of the best features of the hotel is the view from the room window, and the rooftop terrace also offers beautiful panoramic views. Unfortunately, that might be the only thing the hotel truly has going for it. The property seems to cater more to business travelers and conventions rather than tourists or guests staying multiple days. During our stay, we found the atmosphere lacking warmth or hospitality that one would expect from a vacation destination. The hotel has a bar, but it feels inconsistent—on some nights it’s completely empty, and on others it may have one person serving. If you miss the set breakfast, lunch, or dinner times, there are no other food options available, and the menu itself never changes. The location is also a major drawback. It’s about 30 minutes away from the city center, and we found it difficult to get taxis or any food delivery—which might be due to either the hotel policies or its remote setting. In short, if you’re a tourist looking to explore Bari and enjoy flexibility and local flavor, I’d recommend doing thorough research—this hotel may not be the most convenient or comfortable choice for that kind of stay.

Well located close to Bari airport

Close to town, clean, and very helpful staff!
