10/10 Exceptional

This is a family run hotel and honestly could not fault it. The location was excellent in the heart of the old town next to the port. The train station and bus area was a ten minute walk away and boats to various places less than 5 minutes. The hotel was excellent, friendly staff and happy to help and chat. The reception team were brilliant and the whole place had a calm and friendly feel. Really good restaurants nearby , ice cream , shops, laundry services etc and the breakfast was delicious, set you up for the day and could be enjoyed outside. This is one of the nicest hotels we have stayed in during our travels around Italy. The room was clean, comfortable with quality bedding, plenty of towels, hot shower with good toiletries. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely stay great location for bars restaurants and the ferry terminal. Beautiful view from the balcony. Only complaint about the room was the shelf above the headboard which we did hit our head on a couple of times. Loved the blackout blinds and the room was very quiet with the doors closed. Loved the included breakfast. The staff were lovely. Would definitely recommend.

Small room but bathroom modern and clean. Balcony overlooked the square which was busy and noisy at night but wasn’t too late and the power window shutter blocked a lot out. Breakfast was on terrace and nice. Staff were lovely. They were excellent. Station is up the hill. We took a taxi as it was too hot. Nice hotel.
