Paragon 700: A Restored Palazzo  Now Shines as a Boutique Hotel in the Heart of Ostuni

In the heart of Ostuni, Puglia, Paragon 700 is an 18th-century palazzo-turned boutique hotel and spa. The fifteen luxurious rooms and suites exude an eclectic atmosphere, combining the palace’s historic features like high vaulted ceilings, rich wall colors, and frescoes with contemporary and antique furniture and art pieces. Some rooms offer private balconies with picturesque views. Inside Palazzo Rosso’s walls is a private garden—the largest in the city—spanning 1,700 square meters with terraces to lounge and dine and a 15m pool to refresh. Paragon 700 Boutique Hotel & Spa has recently been awarded a Michelin Key.

At the Michelin-recognized Restaurant 700, a variety of organic vegetables and local Apulian ingredients are carefully combined to create an intimate gastronomic adventure with a contemporary twist.

Originally an ancient water cistern, the spa is 7 meters below ground, making it an exclusive experience for up to two people only. Treatments include massages and facials with organic skincare.

Discover one of the beautiful Apulian beaches, go wine tasting, or take in the culture and history of Otsuni. Draw inspiration from the frescoes that hint at the property's past as a convent, and book a painting class, or even try your hand at a stone carving class. Let your imagination soar at Paragon 700, or simply use your stay to detox and relax by the swimming pool. Finish your day at the bar and try the Potion700 Gin, the best-kept secret of Leonardo Gorgini, the mixologist.
