Palazzo Rosso, the luxurious art and architectural boutique hotel in Ostuni, has a long and fascinating history.

Once the home of Ostuni’s first mayor, Don Paolo Tanzarella, its walls tell the tumultuous story of the White City. Located in the heart of Ostuni, this gay-friendly hotel is just steps away from the present-day Villa Comunale park and the charming Ostuni cobbled streets. The venerable stone building has always been at the center of the city’s social and cultural life: it was here that the trainieri (carriage drivers in Apulian dialect) awaited their daily assignments, and it’s here today that guests can immerse themselves in Ostuni’s historic landmarks and attractions.

The luxurious rooms and suites are individually designed to provide you with a unique atmosphere for a memorable and extraordinary experience. They strike a perfect balance between the palace’s architectural features, impressive vaulted ceilings, rich and deep wall and object colors, pure volumes that evoke the history of a bygone era, in stunning symbiosis with the eclectic mix of furnishings, furniture, and art pieces sourced from flea markets in the region and exhibitions from around the world.
