Palazzo Scotto in Alberobello, open June–October.
Palazzo Scotto stands as a meticulously restored 18th-century aristocratic residence in Alberobello's UNESCO-listed trulli district, transforming a centuries-old family home into a luxury hotel venue.
Built in 1750, the palazzo retains its original limestone architecture and period details while offering contemporary event facilities.
The restoration preserved the building's historical integrity across its multiple levels while integrating modern amenities for hosting celebrations.
Nice apartment, but falsely advertising the entrance to the apartment. Advertisement show a lovely entrance, however that did not exist. The entrance was simply a door directly from street level. Not sure what other shower roses are like in southern Italy, these ones were terrible. You either had a direct jet or hand held rose.
