Reviews of Hotel Gioiella 2 stars

Great value hotel in the Miramare beachside area. Closer to the metro station. Spotlessly clean. Friendly, helpful staff.

The breakfast was just ok - the coffee machine seemed to only pour a tiny amount each time, and the eggs and sausages were overcooked and tasteless. Their seemed to be pigeons nesting in the recess directly above my bed as I could clearly hear them cooing and flapping against the drywall.

I spent a few days at this hotel and was very pleased with my stay. The staff were polite, smiling, and helpful from check-in to departure. It's a very family-run hotel. You feel like you're in an Italian home. The room was clean, well-appointed, and serviced daily. I really appreciated the comfortable bed and the quiet – perfect conditions for rest and relaxation. The breakfasts were varied and delicious – both sweet and savory, as well as hot options. I've stayed in many hotels, but the breakfasts at this one are impressive. The location was a big plus – close to the airport and the beach. I recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and pleasant place to relax. I will definitely return.

Next time I am there

Very friendly staff made us feel like home. Very clean.

Friendly staff, very close to the beach

The breakfast was surprisingly good. They previously said that they did not have anything vegan, only for lunch or dinner. But the breakfast was a classic continental one, had many fruit, alternative-plant-based milk, cereal etc. It was such a pleasant surprise, and makes the price-value range better. Other than that, the staff was also friendly, and the common toilets, the restaurant and the lobby very clean and nice. What I had a bit of a problem with was the room itself - I could not use the WiFi even with the right password, it was super warm even though the blinds were down the whole day, and the AC could not be switched on. But more on that at the "bad parts". Overall, a day later at another hotel for the same price I got a way better room, working AC and WiFi, in the room bathroom and toilet, and an even better breakfast. It really put the price in perspective. Don't get me wrong, I was not expecting luxury for the price, but basic decent stuff I did.

To circle back a bit: the staff did not really speak English when I was there. It made it hard for me to try and solve stuff, also I was super tired when I arrived because there had been a strike and I was travelling for 24 hours straight by train. So after the WiFi did not work, the AC did not work, and the room resembled more like a prison than a hotel, I just slept and woke up the next morning, had breakfast (again, surprisingly decent) and left. This is just to give a hint on what and how I could experience stuff. I can imagine that they offer better rooms for more people etc. But for me, it wasn't overall a pleasant experience. The English-speaking part bothered me, because at that part of town that is 100% full of hotels and depends solely on (international) tourists, I would have expected the staff to speak more. Later at other hotels, restaurants etc. I had only good experiences.

Great place to stay for few nights. Aircondotioning worked perfectly, room was clean, beds convinient, personnel very helpful

Very central location and clean room, breakfast good in the morning

Bathroom and wc could be better if they were seperate but it was clean

Breakfast was very good. Very friendly owner

Seperate private bathroom was not ideal however was not inconvenient because i stayed only one night.

Very good place to stay for a family visit and a quiet place to stay I recommend it to you

Everything was perfect, from staff, breakfast, tidyness, location..

Nothing major that you can spot

The host at the reception was a funny young man, everything was smooth and easy. As we did not speak Italian(besides few words like ciao and com e stai) that funny (guess Albanian) guy took cell phone and we spoke thorugh google translator - np. Parking was not at the hotel but the process of parking like 500m away was OK. Just don't forget to drop your stuff at the hotel before parking ;) This info we knew before. For the 2 star hotel I was expecting small very economy breakfast but the oposite was truth. Breakfast was great, sweet stuff as well as eggs, salami, cheese, whatever you like. Sure caffee too ;)

There is a shower without space for shower :o When you take the shower you close the curtain which separate toilet and bidet out of the ther part of bathroom. When water starts flowing water goes also on toilet :D I've never seen that before but it is funny. Also the drain was little bit clogged. For us one night only stayers it was OK, adventure anf fun.

We thank the hotel staff for their hospitality and comfortable accommodation. The room is clean, cozy, and convenient, with fresh and hearty breakfasts. The hotel staff responds promptly to all requests. The hotel is very conveniently located, with everything within walking distance. We really enjoyed our stay.

The welcoming, the flexibility and the kindness of the staff.

Quiet, small and clean.

Dear travelers. I spent a wonderful week of relaxation in this 2* hotel and a great variety of breakfasts. Besides, everything is close and the hotel deserves a much higher award. I've traveled a lot, but I've never seen such a friendly atmosphere. Thank you very much to the young owners. I would like to come back here. .

delicious breakfast; large room and bathroom; good location : not so noisy. parking a little bit far ( 500m) but it is. So no need to wary about your car. Staff is really helpful and friendly ( assisted with cable for iPhone).

lack of sockets for devices
