    The only small complaint I could have was there could be some parasols or some kind of shade around the pool area

    Beautiful old building in a perfect location.Staff were very helpful (Especially Joseppi the guy on the front desk at night)

    Despite the fact that there is an air-conditioning in the room, the air was musty

    The hotel is very charming and modern also, and the view from the swimming pool is amazing. The breakfast is very special and not the usual intercontinental. The location is perfect, close to the restaurants, bars and city center. We were really satisfied and the staff is also so kind and helpful.

    The garden with “garden rooms” is not really a garden but a square. These rooms does not have a window only a door and seating outside.

    Extremely noisy at night when guests came home, noisy out towards the harbor when they start emptying glasses in the morning. Breakfast was not good.

    Nice accommodation down by the harbour, comfortable pool and the rooms were functional. Good location by the harbour and up to the Main Street. the staff was extremely good.

    There was nothing to dislike!

    Location was fantastic! Staff were fabulous, always smiling and couldn’t do enough for us. Loved the pool area, so peaceful and the views were amazing. We had drinks on the upstairs balcony overlooking the harbour before going out into the town, which was wonderful! Looking to book again for October!

    Lovely hotel in a beautiful location near the marina. Room was well sized and comfortable and facilities were great. The pool is fabulous, with views of mountains. Staff were extremely helpful - even organised a very early coffee and breakfast for us prior to usual breakfast times, so that we could catch our plane.

    An interesting group of old buildings beautifully combined in a stunning harbour front location, with a swimming pool at the back. Staff were lovely

    We had one room facing the marina which we knew could be extra noisy and on Monday night was especially noisy with motorbikes riding up and down the marina well into 2am. Maybe hotel could supply ear plugs. Would suggest they add more chairs near the pool or even in the courtyard.

    Great location with lots of restaurants within walking distance. Breakfast was served in beautiful restored building in the property. Amazing breakfast with lots of sweet and savoury choices, fresh fruit, delicious variety of croissants, and best cappuccino! Pool area had amazing mountain views. Location was a few min drive away from beautiful sandy beach called Spiaggia Playa.

    The rooms were great but no room for big suitcases

    Perfect location right at the port, lovely pool area, great breakfast. The hotel had kindly warned us prior to arrival that our room facing the port could be noisy, but being mid week the noise was minor.

    WiFi in rooms was not working at the time we were there, therefore we had to sit in the hotel lobby to access.

    Beautiful hotel and conveniently located. Great breakfast every morning, eggs, bacon, an assortment of sweets, pancakes, cereals, fruit, etc. The staff are wonderful and friendly. Boat tours as you cross the street from the hotel. Restaurants a stone throw away. Lovely location! Shops up the steps (many steps) as well as the best gelato (as shown in picture). Would definitely stay here again.

    We do like a firm mattress on our bed but this one was just a bit too firm.

    The location is amazing, right on the marina in the heart of the old town. Beautiful building, sympathetically restored with a stunning layout. The hotel surrounds a central courtyard with a terraced swimming pool and sun bathing area tucked under the promontory above. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast selection is huge. We can't recommend this place highly enough, a real gem.
