Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very spacious, bright, and the balcony was a nice addition, but the bathroom felt a bit dated. Unfortunately, the view from the room didn't impress me much.
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms, though the interior decoration could be cozier. The service was very friendly and helpful, especially Christina, Roy, and Angela who went above and beyond. The location is fantastic near the sea, but the dining experience was a total disappointment. The facilities are well-maintained, with enough space for more seating by the pool.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were cozy and clean, opening onto the swimming pool area, but had some defects like the shower and curtain. The service was friendly and helpful, especially for scheduling transport to the nearby Paestum ruins. The location, near the sea and convenient for exploring Pompeii, Mount Vesuvius, and Sorrento, was fantastic. However, some items went missing during my stay, which was concerning. The dining was disappointing, with limited and unappealing options, and the facilities were satisfactory.
I had a pleasant stay overall at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and had a nice view overlooking the pool and gardens, making it a comfortable choice for families. The service was excellent, with friendly staff ready to assist at every turn. Though the location was fantastic near the sea, the dining experience fell short with limited options and disappointing food quality.
The hotel location is fantastic near the sea, but staying just for that might not be worth it. The rooms didn't appear that clean and lacked enough space for accommodating a whole family, though they did have a bigger TV screen. The service, starting from reception to waiters, was not friendly. On the bright side, the staff for scheduling to stations and transportation to Paestum ruins were friendly and helpful. The dining experience, with truly disgusting bread and croissants and inedible fruit, was a total disappointment. The facilities were just average with no standout features.
