iH Grande Albergo Delle Nazioni

Probably the only hotel in Bari offering a comfortable combination for your holidays. Great location close to the beach, shopping street and also the old town. Delicious breakfast with a spectacular sea view. Rooftop pool. professional personel

I dont like the style of the bed. Not sure if this is South Italian standard but I dont like that the duvets miss the linen, instead they are naked in between two sheets which sooner or later puts you in contact with the naked duvet. Also there are two mattresses instead of one big which creates a hole in between and is bad for… things

Room, view, helpfulness of staff

No drawers for clothes in room- strange Breakfast buffet was large but not too well looked after: eggs were cold, etc.

The location is outstanding. It is on the beach, first line of the Bari promenade. Excellent view from the balcony. Superb breakfast. The hotel has paid parking available.

The room did not look very fresh. The room was clean, but the floor and furniture is with scratches and shows some ware. Also the rooms design is dated - looks as from Austin Powers movie. The room was expensive, because of the location and sea view, but the condition of the room did not match the price.

This us an exceptional hotel from all points of view. It’s not cheap but it’s worth the money. The staff are excellent, the service is very good, it is clean with very good facilities. It delivers good quality but without being snobby or stuffy and without constant overseeing eg the pool and gym are open and you take a towel and are trusted to stop it in the bin no overbearing staff breathing down your neck ie you are treated like an educated adult snd respected client which is so rare

It was very easy to get to. We liked the retro vibe of the place. The spacious room had a fantastic view that looked out to the sea and left to the skyline of the old city. The hotel has a small but nice rooftop pool and a rooftop restaurant with a great open terrace. It’s situated a short distance from the newer part of Bari and the charm of Old Town with plenty of great restaurants and bars along the way.

The promenade out front got very active late at night so we couldn’t sleep with the balcony doors open. However when they were closed we couldn’t hear much if anything.

Clean room and hotel. Location ideal as a base and easy to walk around Bari from here, for shopping, old town, many bars and restaurants nearby, and hotel is in a beautiful setting on the waterfront. (If you arent renting a car and not a keen walker consider Bari station a 25 minute walk - we stopped off for breakfast on our way there). Rooftop sun beds and small pool relaxing (we used on Sunday when thought beaches busy). Rooms very quiet. Netflix etc on a good smart TV. Nice and large bathroom and shower. Reception staff very friendly and welcoming upon arrival, giving local tips on what to do, and any support we needed. (We did not try the restaurants).

Hard bed. Double bed from two twin beds. No proper bedside lamps. No drawers for clothing. Gym facilities limited.

Room was exceptionally comfortable. Every ementity was available. View of the harbor from the balcony was a real treat. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Can't say enough how beautiful the whole hotel was. Would definitely stay there again and if this was an example of iH hotels we will definitely consider a stay at another of their properties if we have the opportunity in the future.

Breakfast was good but they could done a better job with the eggs.

Great location. Reception staff are fantastic and very efficient. Valet service for parking your car very good. Breakfast is adequate and well priced. The sea view room with balcony was ideal for this location.

Breakfast staff were a great disappointment. No-one at the restaurant entrance to guide you to a table when the place was full of uncleared tables or fully occupied. .The restaurant is nowhere near 5 star standard... slow service, bad presentation. I had a lobster pasta which consisted of an old used shell with two pea sized pieces of lobster in it piled onto a cold Pasta, and my wife's steak was tiny and made to look sufficient by piling a few sliced pieces on a mountain of potatoes large enough for 4 portions ! Eat out... the Pizza next door is a better option, and very good indeed.

Excellent hotel and great service from all the staff. Free room upgrade on arrival. Excellent top floor restaurant with great views, food is exceptional and good value. Excellent roof top pool with large sun terrace and sun beds. Plenty of choice for breakfast.

Town beach is not great. Some amazing towns and beaches within 15 minute ride on the train. Tickets are really cheap and services are really good.

Clean, smart and centrally located. Superior service in every way, loved the parking service and spa setup on the rooftop.

Nothing to not like, friendly, hard working staff who are committed to making your stay a wonderful experience.
