La Sommità Relais is a charming 5-star boutique hotel located in a 16th century mansion in Ostuni city centre.
Its name derives from the hotel position, which is on the highest point of the White City; this is also why you will enjoy a breathtaking view over the valley of olive groves and the coast.
Parking is a bit far from the hotel, but guests are escorted to the entrance with a nice Ape Car or Mini Cooper.
The hotel consists of several buildings featuring suites, restaurant, spa, meeting room and terraces; the interior has shades of cream and white that help your peace and relaxation.
Relais La Sommità boasts a 1 Michelin star Restaurant run by the chef Sebastian Lombardi; he creates traditional recipes with an innovative touch. Each dish is accompanied by wines from Puglia and Italy, kept in the underground cellars; a stone staircase leads to the wine cellar, a room with three ancient tanks, once used to store oil and now location for wine tastings.
In summer you can dine outside, surrounded by the orange and olive trees in the garden; moreover, the restaurant organises cookery classes, wine and olive oil tastings, business lunches and events.
