Albergo Terme Villa Svizzera

“4 nights stay for a business trip in Ischia - totally recommend! Great service and well positioned hotel.”

This hotel is super well positioned, approximately 300 metres of the sea and the beach, just across the main street in Laco Ameno, and just near the bus station.

This hotel is super well positioned, approximately 300 metres of the sea and the beach, just across the main street in Laco Ameno, and just near the bus station. The hotel has a great and big patio with large swimming pool which has terminal water at 38 degrees Celsius. Is family friendly and offers 24/7 reception. I spent 4 nights there in a business trip and I had a big double room with garden view. Super clean and had every day clean towels and the bed was made every single time. I had only breakfasts during my stay. Which was a buffet breakfast with large variety of cereals, cheese, ham, bacon, eggs, sweets such as home made cakes, juices and lemonade, as well as still and sparkling water. All waiters speak English and Italian of course as Spanish and German some of them. I totally recommend this hotel ad for a week stay in Ischia.

“Friendly, tranquil hotel”

Lovely location, quiet, peaceful, friendly staff throughout. Fantastic swimming pools and amenities local to the hotel. All the staff were very accommodating and welcoming. The hotel has excursions on the desk you can get yourself on really cheaply.

I spent three nights at the Villa Svizzera and have to say that for what I was paying it was excellent value for money. My room was very comfortable and well maintained, the quality of the food overall was good and staff were courteous and professional for the most part. However, throughout my stay the indoor pool was cooler than I was told it would be (and bad weather prevented me from using the outside pool although it was also cold) which made it quite unpleasant to use, and every time I asked about this the member of staff basically said they hadn’t been aware. In terms of food, the concept of ordering both meals at breakfast time, i.e. lunch and dinner, while I understand the necessity did feel quite limiting and the menu was very restricted. What I would also say is that while pasta or first courses were largely exceptional, the second courses were far more hit and miss and side dishes genuinely felt like an afterthought. I was also conscious that it felt overall like meals were on a timer and you were expected to eat your meal and leave the restaurant as soon as possible, having said that there really wasn't somewhere comfortable to then set especially since the hotel was quite busy with a large group who occupied almost the entirety of the common areas. I also found the fact that I was not allowed to take a glass of wine out of the restaurant to sit in a more comfortable seat to finish it quite uncompromising. All in all yes the hotel is lovely and for an off season break it is a good choice and is good value for money but perhaps I wasn't their ideal clientele.
