Pros: It was very near Padre Pro's church which is on top of a hill. Less climbing every day! The service was so friendly and the dinners were tasty and priced right.

Pros: Hotel Abete is a charming family run hotel and restaurant. The rooms are very spacious, clean and away from street noise which is refreshing! The restaurant is absolutely excellent- the food and the service. Plus, the owners are very helpful and friendly. Very comfortable place to stay in San Giovanni Rotondo and close to the Chiesa San Pio- an easy walk. I highly recommend this place!

Pros: All, staff more than helpful and friendly, the room perfect

Pros: The receptionist who was the only one that could speak English and communicate. She was lovely and kind, and was genuine in her approach. Also, the landlady was lovely and kind to serve as a second plate of eggs when requested. Thank you.

Cons: Crossiants were your standard type with jam packed in the centre. Beds were beyond firm. they were uncomfortable, small and we really didn't enjoy our sleep nor did we sleep well. The mattress was rock solid hard, if your of a bigger size in frame the bed would be unsuitable as it was quite small. There was no hot water, had to query with reception to use hot water, this took 20 mins to resolve. Electricity would be shut off and we had to ask a cleaner to switch it back on as we wanted to use it. During breakfast we had to ask for eggs although we explained that all our needs would be catered for. No cereal, no tea, no milk, no eggs, cappuccino machine was switched off. Although when asked eggs were served but a small plate for 1 person, I find this unacceptable when there were two of us. We also checked out a day before but was not offered a refund and explained booking.com was arrange for this. We said our goodbye and left. I personally wouldn't like to recommend this hotel to anyone for longer than 1 day.

Pros: The view from our room and small balcony was great! The hotel and the room we had was very clean and comfortable. It was pretty quiet as it's October and may not be a busy month there, but we did bump into 2 other couples at the restaurant and at breakfast. We checked in late but was able to have dinner at the restaurant. The food was freshly prepared and was very good. The lady who took our orders also cooked the food. Her English was limited but she pleasantly explained the menu as well as she could and we understood her :) The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful. The language barrier was not a problem at all. Light breakfast was included. There is parking at the property. The hotel is near the Padre Pio Shrine and St. Michael's cave. We drove from the hotel and parking was available at the religious sites.

Pros: The owners and the staff at Le Terrazze Sul Gargano were super friendly and helpful. The owner Pepe will go the extra mile to help and make you comfortable. The hotel is in superb condition, well maintained and very beautiful. The bed is very comfortable. Close to the Sanctuary of Padre Pio but since the hotel is situated a little uphill, you get a very panoramic view. At the foot in street level at Viale Cappuchini you also get a shop that is open until late to get supplies like bread, a selection of cheese, ham, salami and Italian Prosciutto and home made pastas (these are to take home and cook your pastas like an Italian)

Pros: Location is really good, just a few minutes from the city centre.

Cons: The air conditioning is noisy and placed down in the wall therefore the cold air is mainly located in the lower parts of the room. Also we payed for the breakfast but the food options is quite limited. There isn't not even self service milk. You are only allowed one small cup of hot drink or milk.

Pros: Worked for a nights sleep. I really needed wifi connection in the evening but unfortunately it was only available in the morning.

Cons: There was not internet! I have stayed in this hotel four times before and the internet was always poor, and this time it was non existent. The staff said that it could not be fixed over the weekend! My reservation included a kettle in the room, I had to ask for it the next morning when I realized it was not there. The room smelled of cigarette smoke which affected my asthma.

Pros: All. The house is pretty good equipped with all you would need.

Pros: Nothing.

Pros: The building is a bit dated, but everything was adequate to excellent. Rooms were clean, bed was comfortable, the restaurant was excellent, the staff was outstanding especially Paulo who acted as a concierge, driver, valet, and good friend. He made our stay very comfortable. The location of this hotel is the closest to the Padre Pio sanctuary on mostly level ground, a plus in this area which has a lot of ups and downs.

Pros: Location being close to Padre Pio Sanctuary

Cons: Air conditioning was not cold, paid parking in their garage was crammed with vehicles and maneuvering to exit was almost impossible. Tried breakfast the first morning of 4 and did not return due to old bread, old croissants, watered down pineapple juice and not much else to choose from. Bath facilities were not acceptable as our bathroom had a bath with a shower head and no shower curtain. Impossible to use.

Pros: In order: 1. Staff which was friendly and very patient. 2. Location which was just down the street from both St. Padre Pio's church sanctuary and the bus station. 3. Breakfast which was delicious, nutritional, filling, and good variety of meats, cheeses, & pastries.

Pros: Clean and great location. Perfect for people without luxury expectations.

Cons: I would suggest some coffee in room and/ or vending machines or something. We arrived late, the restaurant in hotel had just closed and we had not had even lunch in our journey, so we missed dinner too. Not the hoyel’s fault, but if there was a vending machine at least we would have not gone to bed so hungry. Just a suggestion. I loved my stay here and would definitely come back.
