Historic B&B in Altamura with falconry heritage, 50 meters from Cathedral bell towers
Historic Building & Architecture
Il Nido Dei Falchi B&B occupies Palazzo Santoro, a building reflecting the ancient origins of Altamura's historic center. The restoration used local craftsmanship, preserving original draw-wells and fountains that create a natural ambiance. Guests are surrounded by authentic historical architecture, with rooms that evoke the era of Emperor Federico II through ancient terracotta and natural lime plastered walls.
Rooms
Each of the six rooms has a private entrance and offers air conditioning, a private bathroom with bidet, and free toiletries. The rooms are designed with family-friendly options, including family rooms with additional space. Accommodations feature tiled floors and inner courtyard views, with heating and non-smoking policies throughout the property.

Guests can join hiking and horse riding excursions organized by the property in Alta Murgia National Park. A shared lounge area with TV and a vending machine are available for relaxation between outings. Daily housekeeping, luggage storage, and laundry services are provided to support extended stays.
Points of Interest
The bed and breakfast sits within 50 meters of two Cathedral bell towers in Altamura, steps from local dining options and cafes. Castel del Monte, the city of Matera, and the Trulli of Alberobello are all within driving distance. Bari Karol Wojtyla Airport is 48 km away, and Bari Cathedral is 47 km from the property.

The hotel's name, Il Nido Dei Falchi (The Falcons' Nest), pays homage to Emperor Federico II's passion for falconry.
