Very Good

Staff were very friendly and helpful ; in particular the lady who checked us in on arrival.The food was very good - we dined there in the 2 evenings we stayed & choices were good. I must comment on the plentiful selection of choices available at breakfast which included local specialities - delicious. The rooftop area with loungers of various types was lovely. We had a sea view room which was spacious and comfortable . Nice area to stay to visit here and other places on the coast down to Santa Maria de Leuca & inland.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Was a lovely clean hotel , room was at the back of the hotel and was a little warm even though AC was on . Location was a little quiet .
The placement of the property is perfect, but it was probably a four stars 30 years ago.
If you look at the pictured they are not for the standard room, but probably for the better rooms. I would describe it as being in a university dorm.
We can easily hear the people in the others rooms and when they pass in the hallway. The shower drain did not function well and had to close the shower so it did not overflow. The air conditioning is centralised so it his not possible to control per room and it was really humid so much it stank because our bathing suits would not dry over night and even after a day.
Please note that there is a public place to swim in a bay about a 10 min walk from the hotel and you not not have to go to the places in front that cost money unless you prefer to get tanned.
There also seems to be a free bus shuttle, but we only saw it when we lefted.
I do not know if it was the language barrier, but that information was never shared with us by hotel staff.
The breakfast and coffee was good.
Das Hotel ist sicher etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber es liegt halt traumhaft i erhalb des Meeres.
Nicht akzeptabel sind allerdings die mangelhafte Kühlleistung der Klimaanlage und das instabile und extrem langsame WiFi.
Posizione magnifica sul lungomare di Santa Cesarea. Stanza comoda e spaziosa, un restyling non guasterebbe. Qualche difficoltà per assenza di scuri alla porta-finestra.
Buona colazione. Servizio gentile e disponibilità parcheggio riservato ai clienti.
ottimo hotel , pulito e con una buona qualità dei servizi , comodo parcheggio riservato ,stanza confortevole location direttamente sul mare spettacolare
Le site+++
Manque peut-être une piscine !
Personnel très agréable
Chambres vastes un peu vieillottes mais l’ensemble est bien agréable ! Vue sur la mer magnifique...
Centrally located.Good breakfast.Friendly and helpful staff.
Due to its location,it was extremely noisy (outside) at night,mainly due to loud music which didn’t quieten down till 1am, on the 2 nights we were there.
Our room was adequate.

Albergo un pò decadente. La camera puzzava di chiuso (probabilmente eravamo i primi clienti della stagione). Buona la colazione e personale gentile. Dimenticatevi della quarta stella

Ottima posizione, ma forse troppe pretese
L'hotel mostra di aver avuto un grande passato, sia per le stanze che per gli ambienti comuni, ma attualmente per i servizi offerti, delle 4 stelle è possibile trovare solo il prezzo (quasi 200€ al giorno è davvero tanto per questo albergo). Nel complesso si può parlare di un ottimo 3 stelle ma niente di più. Nemmeno la cucina (ho potuto provare la colazione - abbondante ma tutto surgelato e cotto - ed il pranzo) meritano una valutazione elevata, buono si ma non vale il prezzo pagato.
Siamo stati accolti con eccezionale cordialità e simpatia in questo bellissimo albergo affacciato su di una baia mozzafiato.
La nostra stanza era ampia, luminosa – grazie ad un balconcino con vista sul mare – arredata con cura, confortevole e pulitissima.
La colazione al buffet, servita in un elegante salone, era varia e squisita.
Tutto il personale si è mostrato estremamente gentile, disponibile e molto professionale.
Unico rammarico: siamo rimasti troppo poco tempo (un solo giorno…) per godere appieno di questa eccellente struttura.
Abbiamo alloggiato in questo hotel per 7 giorni a luglio 2016. Personale gentilissimo e molto disponibile. Camera e bagno standard, un po' datati nell'arredo. Colazione abbondante con buona scelta di dolci e salati, di buona qualità. Nel complesso un'esperienza positiva da consigliare.
La posizione dell'hotel è strategica e ottimale, il personale è stato molto gentile ma la struttura deve fare un bel restyling globale....perchè per un 4 stelle mi aspettavo di più.....
Trevligt hotell med vaken personal, som gav hög service. Bra frukostbuffe, där man förutom individuellt gjord cappuccino kunde få sockerkaka och youghurt naturell. ( sötad fanns också )
Wi-fi fungerade vid receptionen och var kanske inte så stark, men vad gör det på denna udda trevliga badort med klippbad. Nära till allt. Trevlig altan på taket. Fungerande kylanläggning och sköna sängar.
Nettes Hotel mit freundlicher, familiärer Atmosphäre. Mein Einzelzimmer war zwar eher klein, aber schön eingerichtet und mit Blick auf das Meer.
Das Frühstücksbuffet war für italienische Verhältnisse recht umfangreich, das Frühstück auf der Terasse mit Meerblick ein besonderer Pluspunkt.
Das Hotel müsste unbedingt renoviert werden, es ist kein 4 Stern Standart mehr. Das Frühstück ist sehr dürftig... hätte 1 Stern verdient. Die Lage ist traumhaft.
