    The restaurant was closed due to a technical problem. The hotel arranged for the guests to have breakfast in the terrace of our rooms which I enjoyed very much.

    My view from the room was amazing. The location was also very good not far away from the beaches but still with a great view. The staff was very kind and friendly.

    There is no lobby in this hotel. When you come there is no place for you to sit down and rest. Also no restaurant or bar only room service. Breakfast is very limited. I would say breakfast very poor.

    The views are breathtaking. Hotel is located just next door at Le Sirenuse. Walking distance from the Ferry station, however you have to walk uphill quite a while. Room was spacious and clean. Friendly staff.

    No dining option (other than the breakfast in the room)…the restaurant/bar with the view has been shut down for what sounds like political reasons.

    Great location, clean, great staff

    No restaurant, so breakfast served in the room which was mostly cold foods and doesn’t provide the Italian touch of breakfast of full spread

    Breakfast was not good at all. Maybe it was because their breakfast hall was closed and they were serving in the room. Was expecting better.

    Great location and friendly staff!

    Rooms could use a bit of updating but we were happy with it for the cost.

    Location was prime. We had a room with a hot tub and balcony and it was sooo worth it. Dreamy views, helpful staff, breakfast was a bit basic but did the job and was good every morning. We loved our stay and would recommend it!

    Breakfast wasn't the freshest food but had a good spread and a great location. There is no parking available and there is no pool or hot tub unless you book a room with a hot tub.

    The service was consistently excellent and our room was great, with a large balcony with sun-loungers and a jacuzzi bath in our en-suite. The breakfast view was beautiful and the coffee was very good.

    We were not informed that the hotel offers a service where they come and pick up your luggage from the port. So we had the drag our suitcases up the whole to the hill which was really exhausting. You should contact the hotel before arriving and tell them to send a car for your suitcases (if you're arriving by boat or ferry).

    The location could not be better. Also the view from the rooms is magic. The staff was also really helpful booking us a car, a taxi back to the airport etc.
