Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Nitti 43, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the higher floors (above the 3rd floor) for a quieter stay, as the hotel has a relatively old building and the floors above the ground floor have concrete flooring that can help reduce street noise. You may also consider rooms on the south side of the hotel, away from the street.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor, especially those near the entrance or service area, as they may be prone to noise from guests and staff. Also, rooms near the lift may experience some vibration and noise, especially if the lift is frequently used.
Best views

Top Attractions in Taranto
💡 Don’t miss the marble floor mosaics near the altar — they’re original and patterned like a medieval carpet. The crypt is often quiet, and you can see the saint’s tomb. Dress modestly.
💡 Head straight to the second floor for the 'Ori di Taranto' gold collection — it’s the highlight. Allow 1–2 hours. Entry is €8 normally, but free on first Sundays.
💡 Start at Piazza Fontana and aim for the waterfront along Via Duomo. The best views are from the quayside near the Ponte Girevole. Go early morning to see fishermen mending nets.
💡 The best section is the Gravina di Riggio — a short walk from the car park. Bring sturdy shoes and water; there’s no shade. Wildflowers are spectacular in spring.
💡 Entry is cheap (€2–€5 depending on exhibitions), and the sunset view from the ramparts over the Mar Grande is worth every cent. Go on a weekday morning to avoid queues.
