First of all the staff was great. The room was clean and fine, with no amenities. The modernisation of a very old building is not an easy task, but they did a great job here with Akropolis hotel. There is great food in town, but not at this hotel. There is no parking space in the area.

L'hotel è in centro a pochi passi dal duomo, ma la strada per arrivare è molto angusta. Le camere sono pulite ma antiquatr soprattutto la doccia. L'immobile è storico e ci sarebbe un ipogeo da visitare che però è chiuso nelle feste... colazione accettabile per un 4 stelle ma niente di eccezionale. Molto bella la terrazza

Et dejligt hotel beliggende i den gl. by del af Tranto. Tæt på havnefronten og et par rigtig gode restauranter. På ca. 25min. kan man gå til en lille lokal badestrand hvor de sælger drikkevarer direkte fra fryseren.....super hyggeligt og billige for øl og vand. Vil I opleve det originale syd Italien så besøg Tranto´s gl. by del og bo på Akropolis.

La vieille ville n'a aucun intérêt comme l'hotel!

Déjà la vieille ville de Tarente est infréquentable : insécurité, insalubrité, palais abandonnés, et cet hotel est dans cette zone qui est une ZTL = amende très lourde par des caméras? Et quand j'ai demandé l'hotel s'il était dans la ZTL et une "Alessia " a répondu non. Donc elle a menti mais elle nie avoir menti donc c'est ce genre de personnel qui "travaille" et surtout parle beaucoup que vous allez rencontrer. Non seulement elle m'a envoyé dans une zone qui va coûter cher, mais l'hotel payera,le cas échéant puisque son personnel a menti. Et je suis passée à la police locale en charge de la ZTL : elle m'a dit que l'hotel devait envoyer un document pour m'exonérer de l'amende et cette charmante Alessia a refusé alors que c'est une procédure normale. Elle a appelé les carabinieri qui n'ont rien à voir avec les ZTL sans doute pour me faire peur. Mais cela n'a fait que renforcer ma détermination d'obtenir justice. Elle a hurlé une explication pendant une demi-heure , en couvrant ma voix et s'imposant alors que sa présence n'était pas désirée. Bref je vous laisse apprécier la qualité et la grande classe du personnel de cet hotel qui est à éviter, tout comme la vieille ville et Taranto. Aucun intérêt touristique. Et vous n'avez pas que la ZTL comme piège qui attend les touristes car rien n'est en anglais. La route autour de la vieille ville a 2 voies : une où vous recevez une amende et une où vous pouvez circuler mais le panneau est en italien.
palais en face de ma chambre, abandonné pour insécurité - fénêtre cassée
la merveilleuse cour de l'hotel avec des murs en mauvais état et j'ai largement regretté d'avoir réservé dans cet hotel dans un quartier insalubrre

L'Hotel è situato in Taranto Vecchia. Non si potevano, quindi, pretendere ampi spazi in un edificio antico. Tuttavia la pulizia avrebbe potuto essere MOLTO migliore. I vetri delle finestre erano sporchissimo , il piccolo balcone era ricoperto da un dito di melma verdastra. Una nota positiva è stata la gentilezza delle receptionist che si è prodigata per procurarci un posto macchina visto che il misero garage dell'Hotel aveva esaurite la disponibilità

Great family hotel

We loved the hotel, it is family friendly and well situated. We were able to go to Salerno for dinner and sightseeing and in the morning we had a short drive to Paestum. The hotel pool is gorgeous and the beach access across the street was very well maintained.

IMMERSO NELLA TARANTO ANTICA

Ho alloggiato in questo delizioso hotel durante una trasferta di lavoro. Immerso tra i palazzi della vecchia Taranto, l'hotel è situato in una posizione strategica sia per la visita delle principali attrazioni della città. Molti i ristoranti nelle vicinanze. Personale gentilissimo e molto disponibile, camera ampia, pulita e con tutti i necessari confort. Terrazza panoramica, all'ultimo piano del palazzo, assolutamente da non perdere!

Okay stay!

Staff were very helpful and spoke some English. Paid parking was interesting, but worked for us. The room was really small. For some reasons the 2nd night we had ants in the bathroom, cleaned them up then they were back the next morning. Other than that it was in good location to the city and water.

Óvænt og skemmtileg upplifun

Hótelið kom okkur hjónum skemmtilega á óvart. Staðsett inni í þröngri götu í gamla bænum. Hótelið var snyrtilegt og starfsfólkið hjálplegt. Komum á miðvikudegi í lok ágúst á sumarleyfistíma Ítala, í lok dags lifnaði yfir bænum. Fjölskyldur og vinir komu saman, spiluð var músik á hverju horni og stemningin var frábær. Hótelið leyndi á sér með diskóbar á toppnum á hótelinu þar sem pör, vinir og barnafjölskyldur dönsuðu og skemmtu sér.

Nice hotel in the historic centre of Taranto

Nice, charming hotel in the historic (island) centre of Taranto. The historic centre gives a bit of a double feeling since it is authentic on the one hand, but on the other hand pretty dirty and rather dodgy. However the hotel itself is very good with nice authentic furniture and a good look and feel overall. Just note that the staff at the reception barely speaks English.
