Room 216, a bit dated, but comfortable, Food very poor and never hot. Dining room tables too close infact we were with the travel company, travel department, who kept all the group in one part of the dining room and it got very very noisy as people were sitting at long tables and having to shout to each other, rather than in smaller groups at smaller tables. The dining room staff were rushed off their feet, and sometimes had to wait a long time for food. Would I return to this hotel, definitely NOT.

“Food is awful”

Very mixed review with this hotel. We will start off with the good - * Perfect location. 5 minute walk into the centre of Limone and to get the ferry. * Room was spacious.

Very mixed review with this hotel. We will start off with the good - * Perfect location. 5 minute walk into the centre of Limone and to get the ferry. * Room was spacious. Bed was made and clean towels early, before 12 everyday. * Good views from the balcony. We were room 402 and the view was stunning. There was a terrace beside our room also which overlooked more of the lake. Now for the bad - * The food. The food in this hotel is the worst that I have ever ate in any hotel anywhere. Since coming home I have read reviews dated as far back as 2017 with complaints of the food. And obviously, 7 years later, the hotel has done little to nothing to try and rectify this clear issue. I have had better school and hospital dinners. The breakfast was mostly cake?? Not sure who is wanting that for breakfast. We are not fussy eaters at all, but after a couple of days we ate out of the hotel. * The pool - the pool is extremely cold. The lake itself is warmer than the pool. The hotel has a hot tub which was visibly dirty and was never cleaned the whole time we were there. The pool was also dirty. Both also had leaves that had fell into them and again, these lay the whole time we were there. The pool is also seen from the road so everyone walking and driving by can clearly see, so there is no privacy there at all. * Poor facilities in the spa which is made up with a sauna, steam room and a tiny hydropool which is cold. Although our room is spacious, I wouldn't recommend if you were traveling with a friend as the shower is in the middle of the room. We tried to contact reception from our room several times and it just kept ringing with no answer. When we went downstairs to reception there was a staff member vaping. The only reason why I would go back to this hotel would be on a room only basis for the location. Unfortunately, we were half board and lost a lot of money. If the hotel was based on the food alone I would give it 1 star. The only reason why it's been given 3 is due to the location.
