These are meant as constructive criticism. Finding a meeting spot when first arrived in Ostuni turned into an hour ordeal as Waze kept re-routing us. Street names sometimes posted so difficult to find. Guests should park somewhere in Ostuni and call the hotel and let them come to where you are located. Ostuni is a relatively small, charming town. The staff projected our needs and fulfilled them as well accommodating everything we asked without hesitation. Thank you La Sommita staff. If you can't walk up hills, then be aware that La Sommita is at the top of the highest hill in Ostuni behind the main Church. We found the walk relatively easy and especially after going to dinner in the main Piazza an enjoyable walk. We are a relatively older couple. We enjoyed the terrace, pool, and all the amenities.

The hotel is absolutely beautiful. The photos don’t do the property justice. The staff was absolutely amazing. My daughter and I stayed here in May 2024. We arrived in the early evening after driving all day. We didn’t want to have a real dinner so after talking to a manager, Salvatore, he arranged to have the chef prepare us “something” to enjoy on one of their terraces to enjoy the sunset! It couldn’t have been more perfect! Everyone was wonderful, the servers, the front desk employees, their drivers. We decided upon arrival that we didn’t want to move our car from the parking lot to visit Lecce the following day so the hotel arranged a driver for us. It was perfect! The room was beautiful, large and had a steam shower with a waterfall! We highly recommend this hotel!!

Disappointed with the stay
Our room was very loud (number 15), so if you get given that room change immediately as you will not get much sleep in there are people in the restaurant. The pool was quite dirty, the amenities were old fashioned, no coffee machine in the room which I would expect at a 5 star hotel. The service was good at breakfast and the breakfast was nice. Overall I would not stay again as I don’t think it’s worth the money at all.

This hotel was a truly 5 Star Hotel. We stayed in a suite and it was really cool and big. The Hotel offered a shuttle service that helped get to a train station and even took us to the restaurants. The staff was amazing ready to help in any way and to make sure that our stay was unforgettable. Would definitely stay again. Great location in a beautiful Ostuni.

Beautiful views as property sits high above the city. Unfortunately due to cool weather there were limited options to enjoy outside space. Front desk very helpful and friendly with dinner suggestions and reservations. Hotel rooms are very loud as the structure and design accentuates all sounds, voices and doors closing etc. Bed set up on platform in middle of room makes the space seem smaller even though large room. You have to walk around the bed which has an additional step down to the floor. Kind of odd and really limits function of room. Enjoyed our 5 nights and price was reasonable. Fabulous breakfast daily with friendly staff.

Fabulous Property in Ostuni
I booked a stay in Ostuni well in advance of our trip and spoke extensively with the front desk staff with all my questions. Everyone was very helpful. We selected one of the largest rooms with its own private patio that had views of the sea. Unfortunately it rained the entire time we were there so we couldn’t utilize the patio but it would have been fabulous. Our room had a large whirlpool tub which was nice, given the fact that the weather was not cooperative. The tub does look like it needs some updating, though, as some parts didn’t work properly but it worked well enough for us. We were grateful to have it. The room was spotless and the bed was lovely. The entire property is kept so nicely. I had made to order crepes each morning for breakfast and my husband had omelettes. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating. The only issue we had with the property was the lack of a bar. They had a bar but there were not many options for mixers and they had no beer! There was also no beer or liquor in the mini bar in the room. This is not something we would expect from a five star hotel. And it would have been helpful due to the weather, if we had the option of having drinks in our room. Otherwise, everything was great and I would stay there again, without hesitation.

Not at all a luxury hotel. Room was tiny and uncomfortable even for European standards. (deluxe w/ terrace) There was no pool side service. Literally sat by the pool with no one there and never received towels, water, or anything basic. Location is great but that is it. I wouldn’t stay here again,

You Absolutely Mustn’t Stay Anywhere Else! 5 Stars
We were pleasantly surprised at how luxurious this hotel was. The staff were over the top with customer service. The room was more like an apartment in size and was unique and truly lovely. Daily breakfast was beautiful and plentiful with home made, organic everything. Dinner in the Michelin Star restaurant was a special treat. The property is called the summit for a reason—the views were spectacular. The manager was always on site, checking in to see how everyone was and if anything needed. Walk out the front door and your just steps from everything. We would never stay anywhere else. All that being said our room barely heated and the only solution was to change rooms. We loved the room so much though so we didn’t change—we opted for more blankets. Hot water was also an issue after day one though we never informed the management because again we loved all else so much. Tip: if plan to arrive by car, contact hotel in advance for instructions on how to access as you won’t drive to hotel—they will immediately collect you from parking lot.
Room #14 with welcome bottle of sparkling lemon water, italian bread and cookies, and welcome letter.
