Nothing , it was all great!

We absolutely loved our stay here . The rooms are immaculately clean, as is the whole hotel and grounds. The pool area is a little oasis and the roof terrace is perfect for an aperitif. The location is quiet and peaceful , just a short walk to the beach where you can then walk into Forio centre along the coast. Or you can catch the bus from the end of the road into Forio and around the island. All the staff are brilliant, we were made to feel very welcome and we had great advice on where to visit on this beautiful island. We stayed half board, and the food was really delicious and plentiful. Perfect stay 👌

I can not rate Iris hotel enough! My sister and I came here for 3 nights. We were greeted by the hotel owner- Gianluca, who was just lovely. He gave us so much information about the island which was so helpful. We were given room 2, which had a sea view and balcony, where we could watch the sun set every night. The rooms were extremely clean, and were cleaned daily. The breakfast was great, basic but all fresh. The pool area, we popped to see but didn’t stay there, was also very clean. Every body here was just so friendly, we were greeted with a welcoming smile all the time. It’s about a 20 minute walk into Forio centre, which was great of an evening. The bus stop is just down the road, literally a 3 minute walk and the nearest beach and restaurants are a little further down. I would highly recommend this hotel and would definitely come to stay again. This is a 5 star, 3 star hotel! Thanks for having us!

That we couldn't stay longer!

Everything! We were welcomed warmly by Gianluca, who really made our stay memorable. We ordered some drinks on the balcony to enjoy the sunset and he gave us such an overwhelming complimentary grazing spread! Our room was a great size for us as a couple, comfortable bed and the air conditioning was a dream. The bathroom was clean and came with great olive oil products to use. The hotel is up on a slight slope which boasts amazing sunsets views, especially from our room 1. There is also a large terrace which you can enjoy a drink from too. Aswell as a view, the hotel also has a pool, jacuzzi and a beautiful setting for an evening meal. It's about a leisurely 15mins walk to the centre of the beautiful Forio, and 25mins walk to the stunning Giardini la Mortella with places to stop for food and drinks. There is a bus stop right at the bottom of the road a 3mins walk from the hotel, going in both directions, so easy access to and from the port of Ischia, Forio and sant'Angelo. We only stayed for 2 nights, but we can't wait to go back for longer as the people on Ischia are so friendly, the food is really 👌 and we really loved this hotel! So again thanks to Gianluca for welcoming us to the island of Ischia!

Can't really complain. There is a street going past the hotel, and you will hear some motoring. But nothing really disturbing, more like the odd Vespa or car. Stay on the side when you are walking to the beach, though; the streets are narrow.

Lovely, little hotel. Staff was absolutely brilliant, always extremely helpful and friendly. If you wish, you may have your dinners there (as well as a very good breakfast buffet). Food was delicious, and lots of it! Rabbit on Thursdays - be there... The hotel can also fix you up with massages and spa services. We had a room up on the top floor, next to the terrace. Both places had great views over the neighbourhood, and the beach 400 m away. We went to Chalet Nonna Carmela, and were very happy with that. You will see beautiful sunsets, either from the hotel, or maybe from one of the small restaurants along the beach. We tried L'Ancora, La Ruota and Mare Chiaia; all were good in their own way. Also went to Saturnino, which was great (albeit a tiny bit on the pricey side). Enclosing a drone shot of the hotel and an example of the sunsets you are likely to experience from your own balcony. All in all: Ischia can be warmly recommended, for so many reasons - and Iris Hotel is just one of them.

We wished we could have stayed longer.

I could not imagine a better boutique hotel. The staff are all very friendly and helpful and they become your friends. The hotel is a short walk to the beach and we also used the pool everyday. The meals are very tasty and surprised us with their high quality.

This hotel was amazing it’s literally 2 minutes away from the closest beach, it was super clean. the best part honestly was the amazing people who work there, they were the nicest people. They gave us recommendations on beaches and restaurants to go to. it was also nice to come down and chat with Jean Luca while my husband got ready. this place made our weekend trip to ischia 1000x better. it was our home away from home, we will definitely come back and recommend to our friends!
