    It was no fault of the hotel but a ferocious wind blew up. This meant our shutters had to be closed for 2 days. So we didn't benefit from the seaview room we had paid for. Bear that in mind when booking.

    Its position on the harbour front was great. All the reception staff and restaurant staff were great. We were there for Valentine's Day and had a good evening with a special dinner with a soothing duo. It is great walking round the alleys of the old town.

    In winter it is an error to choose an hotel on the north side of the island. It is too windy and cold. If we had known this we would have chosen an hotel on the south side

    The staff was very jelpful and wonderful

    Some rooms are not fully accessible with a lift. Parking a car is an issue, since the hotel does not have a parking lot, but you can rely on the reception to help with finding a parking space. It can be a bit noisy at nights, because the hotel is on the promenade, but that is part of the fun of the town.

    Fantastic location on the threshold of the Old Town. Kind and very helpful staff. The hotel is in a charming old building, fully renovated and rooms / ours at least/ are with a sea view.

    Very limited facilities: no bar, no lounge, no entertainment, bit overpriced fir the facilities it offers. Needs a bit of tidying up also; painting, mops and cleaning equipment left out in lounge areas, bikes, etc. The air conditioning also is not strong enough and the bathroom taps and shower weak.

    The hotel was beautiful and the location perfect. The staff were all super friendly and helpful!

    The worst part was the wi-fi, we couldn´t connect in the room, too week. Breakfast should be improved: only one person cleaning tables, serving a good Italian coffee (espresso, cappuccino, etc) and replenishing the reasonable buffet was not enough: he worked a lot, but at the end it was slow and there were missing items in the buffet. Charging extra for an orange juice was also not nice. Shower box was too small.

    Fantastic hotel! Perfect if you are driving (you can drop the bags inside the ZTL – restricted traffic zone – when you check in and get them when you checkout) and park – free, in May – ate the Port Parking, a short walk in front of the hotel. Services were outstanding, specially at the reception, where they gave us a lot of information about the town, maps, how to park the car, and helped with the (heavy) baggage. Location could not be better, at walking distance to all the attractions, churches and restaurants. Room – sea view, which I strongly recommend – was very good: comfortable, great view (apart from the parking just below, but the horizon and the fishing boats returning in the afternoon and mooring just in front were beautiful). However, the shower box was too small.

    Everything was good, but if I had to give one slight criticism it would be on the breakfast. Although there was plenty of choice (cereal, cakes, fruit, croissants, cheese, ham etc), I thought that the quality of food did not match the 4 star rating of the rest of the hotel eg no nice crusty freshly baked bread (something I particularly enjoy when visiting Europe) and the fruit 'salad' was cut into very thin slices, so that you had to take many to get a reasonable portion (which meant it frequently ran out and needed to be refilled when the staff noticed), no choice of NICE cheeses or ham. I would describe the breakfast as 'okay' rather than 'excellent', which was a shame as this would have been easy to improve without great cost.

    The reception staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful and (thankfully for us) spoke english. They gave good recommendations for places to eat and visit. There is lots of choice for restaurants and cafés nearby and also shops where you can buy supplies for a picnic. The hotel also has its own restaurant with some very fresh looking fish on display. We liked the large rooms and the location in the Old Town was convenient. The rooms were very clean and, despite the road directly outside the hotel, pretty quiet. It's only a short walk to the beach and there are a choice of bars in the Old Town where you can enjoy a drink whilst watching the sunset. No noisy bars near the hotel. You cannot drive your car or park it in the road around the Old Town during the Summer but you are allowed 2 visits (on arrival and departure) to drop off/collect your suitcases (they filled out a form to ensure we did not get a fine from the camera that monitors this). There is a car park by the harbour (about 5 minutes walk) where you can park for free and access in and out of the Old Town without restriction during your stay. I felt the staff made a great effort to ensure our stay was as pleasant as possible. A nice peaceful atmosphere in a lovely old building.

    This hotel is marked as 4* so I do compare it with hotels in the same category we visited during our road trip in Italy this year. We booked private monitored parking in advance (in near location of hotel for 48 EUR - we got written confirmation from hotel). At the reception, after our arrival we got information, there is no option for monitored parking and we have to use public parking. Based on reservation we booked room with 22 meters square, but room we got had barely 16 meters. Beds were very uncomfortable. Air conditioning was noisy, and not working properly, so we were rather not using it. Wifi not working at all during our staying in this hotel. Whole night we heard some strange mechanical noise, with increased intensity from 1am to 5am. No noise isolation in rooms, so you hear oder guests as well. Me and my husband we were not able to sleep whole night. We raised our claim at the reception in the morning. From receptionist we heard only: Im sorry for that. No try for change of room, or any corrections. We decided to leave hotel after very poor breakfast and passive attitute from reception. Even if we stayed only one night, we havent got any discout or recharge back from hotel for 4 paid nights. Think twice before booking this hotel. You may lose your money for very low value.
