Spent 3 nights in Relais Palazzo Vaglio and it was trully the best time. An absolutely amazing place to stay - I will come back for sure. Ceilings in a very spacious suite was probably 4 meters high, fresques on the walls and mosaics on the floors: keep in mind, this building is from 19th century. Palazzo Vaglio is beauty that is not extravagant or ‘loud’, but historic, real and very unique. The guy who will warmly greet you upon arrival - Jacopo - is also the owner of the place. Jacopo’s attention to detail, generousity and honest care is outstanding; you can not compare this dedication with the work of ‘payed managers’ at the usual mainstreem hotel chains.. The location of Relais Palazzo Vaglio is fantastic: 3 minutes walk to the main square of Nardo. And the city itself is an absolute pearl; the beauty of baroque at its finest simply blew my mind. I also felt that Nardo is still something out of the mainstream touristic radar and it makes the whole experience even more special. The beautiful sand beaches with clear waters are around 10 minutes by car (Jacopo will recommend you best places after listening to your expectations, checking wind directions of that day etc.) and the Restaurant of Roberto (Jacopo will tell you the exact name and the address) was my best choice for tasty and super authentic dinner in Nardo (the food is more important there than the design of the place or else...) Many other beautiful towns and cities are just 30 minutes drive by car from Nardo. I managed it all with having rented car which I easily and for free parked just by the front door of the Palazzo. Also great roof terrace; everything you need in the rooms; good air conditioning; nice breakfast.

Palazzo Relais is a distinguished looking building, inside and out. Jacopo was most accommodating with regards to check-in and our room, high ceiling and spacious- it was lovely. He was a very attentive host and gave many restaurant recommendations. We loved his Rintocco recommendation. Breakfast the next morning was sublime:fresh figs, baked products and great coffee.

Nothing

The hotel was elegant, peaceful and unique. The service was second to none, calmly delivered and expertly handled. The room was super clean and the bed and pillows were so wonderfully comfortable. The owner was calm and gave good advice about places to visit.

There was nothing to dislike

Beautiful hotel in the heart of town. Jacopo and the rest of the staff were extremely effecient and professional. Our room was a great size and beautiful. Well worth the price. Highly recommend!!!

Everything was great

It’s a beautiful property, incredibly well preserved with a combination of vintage furniture and contemporary art. A true boutique establishment. The staff is very kind and attentive. We got an upgrade to great room. Highly recommend staying here if you go to Nardo!

Beautiful accommodations in what turned out to be one of our favorite towns in Puglia. Classic palazzo and furnishings made for an authentic experience. Wonderful staff. Loved the location, breakfast, and room. Everything about it was perfect.

we loved the renovation and attention to detail of the hotel, the light and atmosphere were perfect! the owner of the hotel is friendly and very caring of his property, it is an absolute pleasure to stay here! the town of Nardo is beautiful , the people are friendly and the restaurants we were recommended y the owner of the hotel were fantastic !

The room was super and had everything we needed. Nardo is a wonderful town the surrounding countryside and beaches are great.

The building was beautiful, there was on street parking directly outside and it was perfectly positioned at the edge of the Centro Storico. The host Jacopo was extremely welcoming and helpful and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Relais Palazzo Vaglio. When we visit Nardò again, we will be staying here.

Fabulous Palazzo and the perfect place to stay when visiting the charming town of Nardò. Highly recommended.
