My wife and I checked in at the office opposite a large, free car park and were then escorted by a very pleasant amn through the narrow streets to our home for the next three days. We'd only booked a day or two before and the available house (for that's what it was) turned out to be the two bedroomed Casa degli Angeli; a twin bedded room and bathroom on one floor then, up some narrow stairs to a kitchen /dining area and a double bedroom. We chose to use the twin room for easy night-time access to the bathroom! From the second floor, another set of stairs led to a large rooftop terrace with a cracking view of the Duomo and a good array of furniture; perfect for a quiet evening drink or for a lie in the sun! This is the main attraction of this particular property I'd say. The furnishings were fairly ordinary and the house isn't especially attractive inside but it's clean and more than adequate for a few days stay. Outside is extremely pretty; the location is excellent and Locorotondo is a perfect base to explore this part of Puglia. Breakfast involves a short walk down the street and was pretty good, served by pleasant staff in nice surroundings. We had a rainstorm the night before we left and somehow this caused the lights to go out! A phone call had the owner (sorry, can't remember his name) round within a few minutes and although he couldn't fix it late at night he did all he could to make sure we were OK and we managed fine with the emergency lighting. Albergo diffuso is a strange concept and it's difficult to know whether to judge it as a Hotel or as a holiday let /Air BnB sort of place. If the latter, then I'd have to mark it down on the very basic kitchen equipment. For a hotel however, the presence of tea and coffee making facilities, wine glasses and basic cutlery would be a selling point! All in all we enjoyed our stay and would at least consider 'Sotto le Cummerse' again if we were to have a short visit to Locorotondo. If staying there for the major part of a holiday we might look elsewhere.

Omg!!! Such a lovely town and simply lovely accommodations. We were 2 couples in a 2 bedroom with a beautiful rooftop terrace. Great breakfast. Wonderful hosts. Highly recommend this location. Hosts were lovely

Wow! We loved it. Beautifully decorated and fantastic location. Staff was great told us all about the area and the breakfast was amazing.

We had an amazing stay in our Suite in Locorotondo. The 2 floor suite was just wonderful. A restructured room from the 1700 with all the current amenities you would want. Wonderful views of the town from every room. Comfy beds and very spacious quarters with a fully equipped kitchen and dining area. Coffee machine with complimentary coffee and tea kettle also available. Plenty of free parking right next to us. Staff at check in was super nice and helpful. Gave us a lot of suggestions as far as restaurants and things to do. Plenty of restaurants and shops right at your door step. Will definitely be back!

Great place. Locorotondo is a beautiful town. Some many option to eat. A lot of places to go. We stayed for 2 weeks and really enjoyed every moment. Roberto and his staff are wonderful people.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. The room is very clean and beautifully furnished and has clean linen. The kitchenette could do with a few extra bits if you really want to self-cater eg chopping knives and board, drying up cloths, better labelling on the hob. However there are so many catering options you don’t need to eat in unless you prefer to. There are lots of shops and a reasonable supermarket within walking distance as well as the market on Friday morning. Parking is free and easy. The bed was super firm - too hard for us but not lumpy etc. The building is one of the oldest in the village and full of quaint features and there are restrictions in what can be done with it. This means it is both beautiful and also not allowed to install external air conditioning units. So the unit that is allowed is more of a fan. However as it is a cooler room anyway it is much cooler than outside so not unbearable but also not as cool as full air conditioning. There is so much to see within walking distance and lots of very pretty towns a short drive away. I would definitely stay here again.

We stayed here in 2017 for our 50th wedding anniversary. Italy with Pleasure Tours were so wonderful and accommodating that we returned for their Culinary tour in Ostuni June 2023 and brought our whole family of 10 (78-14 yrs.) We went on a day trip to Locorotondo, our kids were mesmerized as we had been with everything in and around Locorotondo.
