Guest Reviews
Location
Visitors commend the hotel's convenient private parking and favorable geographical location, facilitating trips to various points of interest like Giovinazzo, Molfetta and Santo Spirito. Many highlight its suitability for road trips, thanks to its accessibility from the SS16 highway and short driving distance to notable destinations such as Matera, Polignano a Mare and Alberobello.
The quiet town setting away from the hustle and bustle of Bari provides a serene atmosphere, particularly appealing for those looking to relax by the picturesque beach and pool.

Proximity to a busy railway track and the hotel’s relatively isolated location might be downsides for those sensitive to noise or without transportation.
Overall, Ibis Styles Bari Giovinazzo receives commendation for its ideal location near the airport and the sea, offering a peaceful yet well-connected base for travelers exploring Puglia.
Breakfast
However, there were also recurring criticisms about the limited selection and lack of variety. Some guests mentioned the breakfast could be improved, citing it as basic or ordinary with minimal offerings during the Covid-19 period. The breakfast room itself was said to be in need of an update and complaints about breakfast items being wrapped in plastic and lacking fresh vegetables were noted. Despite these drawbacks, the breakfast was often described as adequate or meeting Italian standards, suggesting that while improvements could be made, it still leads to a generally satisfying start to the day for many travelers.
Dinner
However, the restaurant could improve on several fronts. Some found the dinner options limited and suggested the evening menu could be enhanced. A few guests found the food akin to a cheap cafeteria and not up to standards, describing certain dishes, like overcooked hamburgers, as disappointing. There were also comments about the need for more snack options throughout the day and some dissatisfaction with the clarity and experience of the breakfast service.
Overall, while there are areas for improvement, many guests found the dining experience satisfactory with good quality food and friendly service, suggesting it could be a reliable option for dinner, especially for those valuing convenience and value.
Rooms
Nonetheless, there are notable concerns. A recurring theme is the outdated decor and furnishings with mentions of old-fashioned furniture and worn carpets. Some rooms are described as tired and in need of renovation with specific complaints about the state of bathrooms and overall maintenance. Noise was another issue for guests, particularly for rooms located near the railway tracks, which experienced constant noise from trains.
In conclusion, while the rooms are generally spacious and clean, improvements are needed in updating the decor, better soundproofing and addressing maintenance issues to elevate the overall guest experience.
