About Us — Our story
Laterza · Taranto · Puglia
An experience beyond hospitality
Where it began
La Suite del Marchese was born from a deep passion for the authentic beauty of Southern Italy and the art of welcoming guests. Located in the historic centre of Laterza, in the province of Taranto, the property is set within a historic building with exposed stone barrel-vault ceilings, where every stone tells centuries of Puglian history.
01
The Tufa Cave
The heart of the suite is our centuries-old cave carved into tufa rock, where we have created an exclusive spa. The hydromassage tub, sculpted into the rock itself, is bathed in atmospheric lighting that transforms every bath into a ritual. The natural tufa maintains a cool, constant temperature, enveloping you in ancient silence.
02
Our Values
We believe in personal, not industrial hospitality. Every guest is welcomed directly by us with fresh fruit and prosecco. There are no televisions in the room — only music, candles, and the pleasure of disconnecting from the world.
03
Small gestures
We offer a complimentary breakfast at the historic centre bars and free parking 50 metres from the property. Because the small gestures make all the difference.
04
The Ideal Location
Laterza is just 20 km from Matera, UNESCO World Heritage Site. The beaches of Ginosa Marina and Castellaneta Marina are 25 km away. Bari Airport is about 57 km, reachable in under an hour.
