Where to stay in Santo Spirito
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Santo Spirito lists six churches, a war monument and a fountain statue among its fixed points, and no lodging at all, so the room goes elsewhere. Il Titolo pulls a different visitor. Palese Macchie shares Municipio V with the quartiere, so a desk in Bari proper covers both halves of the municipio without changing hotels.
The chiesa dello Spirito Santo names the quartiere and marks where to start.
