A solid 3.5 star hotel in my opinion. The pros: - The Staff! Every single staff member that we interacted with was very professional and kind. 5 stars for the staff - cleanliness: The hotel was honestly quite spotless. All the common areas were very clean, and our room when we arrived, and when we asked for it to be made up, was cleaned very nicely. The cons: - thin walls: we could hear everything in the room next to us. The tv, coughing, talking, and a screaming baby for two nights were all very clearly heard in our room, and we had to put on ambient noise a few nights to try to drown out the noise from the room next door. Our bed must have been right up against the wall where the tv was in the room next to us. We also had loud disco/rave music coming from somewhere (we never did figure out from where) for the first three nights of our stay - the location: just a little too far from Ischia Porto or Ischia Ponte for our liking. It's also up a hill, so if you have mobility issues you might want to book something a little more central. Overall: This hotel was booked on a half board basis (breakfast and dinner) with an Air Canada Vacations package. We were happy with the accommodations and thought the hotel was a good value for money. The breakfast was standard continental, with bread, cheeses, cold meats, yogurt, pastries, plus some scrambled eggs and occasionally sausage and bacon. The dinner was 4 courses, and they did their best to accommodate dietary restrictions. I'm a pescatarian and my partner is lactose free, and the servers were great at providing options we could eat. The dinner was honestly almost too much food. By the time I got to the main course I often couldn't finish it. We were in room 309 which had a double bed and we had a lovely large balcony with a view of the Castle and the sea, a patio set, and two loungers. Our bed was comfortable enough, and the bathroom came with soaps, hair/body wash, etc. There was a shower stall, a toilet, a bidet and a sink. It was nice that there were two hooks so that each person could hang their towel. We didn't drink anything out of the mini-bar, there's a little store close to the hotel where you can purchase the items like sodas, water, juice and wine/beer for much cheaper. There's also a grocery store about a 10 minute walk from the hotel towards the main road for snacks, etc. We purchased cocktails and wine by the glass from the bar before dinner on several nights, the prices were pretty much on par with local restaurants. The heated pool is a lovely touch, especially at this time of year when the evenings are cool. The pool closes at 7pm, but it would be nice if it was open much later. I would recommend bringing your own towel, as the towels that are in the room are not to be used by the pool. You can rent a housecoat or towels from the front desk as well. The WIFI is included and it works well. This hotel worked well for this trip. For future trips, we may choose to stay a little closer to Ischia Porto or Ponte, since that is where we spent a lot of our time.

“Great base to explore Ischia”

This hotel was exactly as anticipated. Clean, simple, beautiful in a great location. The balcony had an amazing view of the Castelo and the ocean and even though the room was small it had everything we needed to enjoy Ischia thoroughly. The food was fine and there was lots of choice.

“Very charming hotel, really friendly staff”

We stayed in this charming hotel for 5 nights on a half board basis (booking agent voyage Privé). The photos on the hotel website don’t do it justice, the hotel is spotlessly clean and has a vintage charm.

We stayed in this charming hotel for 5 nights on a half board basis (booking agent voyage Privé). The photos on the hotel website don’t do it justice, the hotel is spotlessly clean and has a vintage charm. We had a room on the 4th floor with a lovely view of Ischia and a little garden outside with seating area. It was very comfortable. We thought the food was very good quality for half board. It is a La carte rather than buffet and the service from the waiters was exceptional. The dinner service was very professional and the waiters are so friendly and helpful. We really liked the waiters and the lady at reception. I would book this hotel again. Also of note, there are two thermal pools, one indoor and one outdoor. This would be perfect out of season when the weather is a bit cooler. Just one note of constructive feedback … it would be nice to have complimentary bottles of water in the room and complimentary usage of spa towels rather than renting spa towels. Grazie mille for an excellent stay 😎
