Fun, great spot, great restaurant further up the hill on the right from Hotel a must try.

8.0

The view and location were wonderful, room was amazingly clean and the staff were wonderful especially Housekeeping!!!!!!! At the top of the hill so it was a good walk back from the beach but through the shops and restaurants so entertaining journey. Breakfast was okay nothing special, breads were dry (cut early and left to sit out) good coffee, staff were sweet.

− The first glitch was I requested pickup help from the Port due to a back injury..........that was not there as requested. Then we were informed just grab a porter...we did but he would only take the bags not us! After bribing financially another porter we got ferried up to the edge of town and then had to walk all the way up the hill to the hotel! Not the arrival I had requested and had trouble navigating that with our hand luggage. It was pretty chaotic. Second glitch was sister hotel with pool, not next door actually back down by the ferry. Stunning location but not next door.

Lovely Roman hotel surrounded by landscaped gardens

Great garden area to eat breakfast and dinner. Close to the Colosseum and Circus Maximus. Food was great for breakfast and dinner.

− Our room was at the front of the property , the traffic at night was noisey.

Incredible service, views and an unforgettable experience!

8.0

In a great location for the best views. Breakfast was plentiful and the service was great. We turned our room key into the front desk when we left for the day, which I thought was a bit strange. But to our surprise they turned down our bed and even folded my wife’s pajamas and laid on the end of the bed for her. More properties should provide this level of service.
