B&B Murex

A delightful property in the heart of the old city. Directly at the beginning of the street where table after table of hand made Orecchiette are offered for sale. Walkable to all parts of the old city. The best gelato shop is only a few meters from the Murex. Service and amenities and breakfast were all very good. Recommended for adventurous travelers!

A cute and charming Bed and Breakfast in Bari,Italy. The host is friendly and attentive. He helps with luggage and accommodates requests readily. The room was very clean and well appointed and included all necessities. Our room had a small balcony. Our room was called “La Citta”. The small lounge has an area to make coffee and has water and other soft drinks for guests. Breakfast was served in our room (due to weather), and we were able to select the breakfast items we wanted. The B&B is across from the Castle and in a very central location. It has a steep staircase that should be noted if you have mobility issues. However, this is clearly advertised in booking platforms.

One of our favorite stays in Puglia! Antonio was the perfect host, made sure we had everything we needed and helped us find good parking nearby. The room was comfortable and the breakfast on the quaint rooftop was authentic and delicious. It is a prime location - so cute.

We stayed for four nights and rented two rooms, both of which were very comfortable and each had its own private bathroom. With individual air conditioning, the rooms provided a calm haven from the extreme heat outside. Antonio is a very attentive host, supplying all the necessary items for a comfortable stay, including towels, a Nespresso machine for coffee at any time, and complimentary water and soda. The breakfast was a delicious selection of fresh bakery, cheeses, meats, yogurts, and fruit to be enjoyed on the rooftop. The location is also perfect. It is situated at the edge of the Castle Normanno Svevo and is easily accessible to major roads. The piazza right outside the door is perfect for enjoying evening gelato and people-watching. Additionally, the old arches of the town are just steps away, where you can stroll and watch women making their famous orecchiette pasta.

I stayed at B&B Murex in Bari Vecchia, and it was an incredible experience! The accommodation is absolutely beautiful, and I couldn’t find a single fault. Due to my early flight, Antonio kindly let me check in much earlier than expected. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything you need.||One of my favorite parts was the 24/7 access to the stunning rooftop terrace, where breakfast is served. The breakfast was absolutely delicious, with all ingredients being local and fresh. They were also happy to accommodate any special requests for breakfast, which was a lovely touch. Besides coffee and water, there was access to other beverages throughout the day, making it feel even more welcoming.||The location is perfect—right in the heart of the old town, just steps away from Strada delle Orecchiette, where the local women prepare fresh Orecchiette every day. I also really appreciated that sustainability and recycling are priorities at B&B Murex, which made the stay feel even better.||Antonio was incredibly helpful and friendly, offering great tips and taking the time to ensure every guest had a great stay. It was a flawless experience, and I highly recommend B&B Murex to anyone visiting Bari!

What an exceptional location and accommodations. Alice and Antonio, owners of the BnB have poured their love and hospitality of Bari into making this property a stay you don’t want to miss. The property is located just inside the old Centre of Bari steps away from the magnificent restored castle. Rooms were nicely decorated and updated to standards of a 4 plus or 5 star hotel. ||Our host and hostess provided amenities throughout our stay including wine, beer, colas, bottled water and coffee. Our choice of breakfast items each morning was served on the terrace overlooking the rooftops of adjoining buildings. During evenings we enjoyed sharing a nightly glass of wine while taking in the cool breeze and sights. The terrace is furnished with very comfortable furnishings. Recommendations for local dining and sightseeing were shared including a map with directions. Alice and Antonio deserve a 10 for their thoughtful renovations and hospitality throughout our stay. BnB Murex is a stay you don’t want to miss if visiting Bari.

This was a fantastic place to stay in the lovely city of Bari. It was sunny and sparkling clean. Host Antonio provided lots of suggestions and helpful ideas, and could not have been more welcoming, and provides a terrific fresh breakfast up on the gem of a roof terrace. Location is perfect, rooms are quiet and spacious. Steep stairs can be an adventure with luggage but not a problem for us. Highly recommend! This place had something special you would never get with an Air BnB or with a bigger hotel.

Definitely the best place we have stayed at. Breakfast is really really good, good quality en lots of variety. Everyday you can choose what you want for breakfast. The list to choose from contains a great amount of variety in products. So you can have a great filling breakfast without unnecessarily wasting food. The host Antonio is clear and friendly in communication. When we arrived he gave us a lot of good recommendations. A part of our luggage didn’t come with the plane and needed to be brought later but Antonio was really helpful and wanted to help as good as possible, which was really nice. So if you want to stay in Bari this is the place to go to.
