Al Console Luxury Suite

Be very careful! My sister and I were booked. confirmed and had paid for our stay. We had the confirmation. The manager of hotel met our taxi, checked us in and all was fine. We had unpacked and decided to go for a walk. We were gone for about 2 hours and were in the market place when the manager came looking for us. They said our reservation had been cancelled. They had accepted and checked in another reservation. Packed our bags and had them waiting for us. We are requesting a refund, and now the hotel is claiming we stayed there! We have proof that we did not stay there! Do NOT trust them.

I have to say, I was blown away with the whole stay, the views were amazing, roof top romantic, cold jacuzzi needed in 30+ heat! The staff (even with a language barrier at times) were lovely and helpful. They provided room service and roof service when ever you needed it. The token for breakfast was probably the downside, would have been awesome to have breakfast on the rooftop at the hotel while enjoying the views. The street noises were not an issue and we were there during a very busy time. The glass door to the bathroom, broke the mystery that as a honeymooning couple was still slightly there haha.. but never the less amusing. We were in room 103 the rain headed marble shower next to the bed, and we were very impressed and it had all the LED lights. The room does need places to dry swims suits etc, which we ended up taking things up to the roof. Small beach is about a 7 min walk away, sea is lovely but it’s crowded!

-really comfortable bed and not as much street noise comes through the windows as I thought there’d be—good soundproofing -The place they give you a coupon for breakfast has horrible service and wouldn't serve me before 9a even though they were open. -I hate complaining about this but it’s really not ideal that the staff only speak Italian - no English at all . The man who checked me in kept speaking to me rapidly in Italian even though I told him many times I don’t speak it. It would just be nice to be able to ask them for local advice etc - or pretty much anything. I was able to ask a couple questions over WhatsApp -I stayed in the king seaview suite - very nice and spacious - but fyi, the water view is only in the room foyer and the bathroom. The bedroom window is directly across from another building/on the street -Rooftop is very nice but it’s kind of odd that the jacuzzi is freezing cold. It’d be so nice if it was a hot tub (it has jets etc), at least in the non-summer season -Overall it’s a very nice place but if I returned to monopoli I’d stay somewhere less expensive, on a quieter side street, and with breakfast in house.

Can't say enough amazing things about the staff here. Truly 5 star service. Though there is a bit of a language barrier at times, they are always at your service, literally always on WhatsApp, and willing to work with you to make every part of your stay amazing. Couldn't have asked for more. The rooms are true suites - well appointed and spacious, with lots of amenities. Amenities and offerings in the rooms are replenished generously daily. The shower is amazing - 5 different nozzle/stream types to choose from! Breakfast is a voucher to use at the cafe next door - nothing special (no knock on Al Console). Note - there is no elevator, so you will need to bring your luggage up a flight of stairs. The hotel is super helpful with where free parking is (about 10min walk away). The one and only downside is the noise. The hotel is really conveniently located on a main street in Monopoli - which also means it's hip and happening until 3am. The music from a nearby restaurant downstairs is loud..and goes until 2-3am. I slept with ear plugs every night but it was still an issue. Note for any light sleepers!

Splendida location, a 10 m da piazza Garibaldi con un affaccio stupendo sul porticciolo dei pescatori, stanza grande è molto confortevole, pulitissima ed arredata con gusto ci siamo trovati molto bene, se torneremo a Monopoli non esiteremo a tornare lì!

Bellisima camera grande curata arredata con cura bagno grande pulito con tutti i confort...vista diretta sul porto di Monopoli bel impatto visivo. Sul terrazzo una jacuzzi con bar e sdrai per un pò di relax che chiude alle 18 un pò presto.Colazione nella caffetteria convenzionata a 20 metri dalla struttura. L'unica cosa negativa un pò di rumore che arriva dai locali sotto la struttura che si trova in centro
