Un posto perfetto per soggiornare a Carloforte
Pros:

L'albergo e' una bellissima struttura in una posizione ottima: vicinissima alla zona di arrivo dei traghetti e anche al centro del paese. Lo staff è stato eccezionale nel rispondere alle richieste e ad aiutarci con la sistemazione.
Le ragazze alla reception ci hanno subito indicato i modi migliori per spostarci sull'isola e descritto le spiagge più belle da visitare. Anche l'affitto dello scooter è stato interamente gestito dalla struttura, molto comodo.
La stanza era davvero grande e comodissima e la pulizia eccellente.
L'intero soggiorno è stato davvero piacevole.

Cons:

Solo un paio di note (davvero minori) sulla colazione:
1. Non mi e' piaciuto avere un turno per la colazione: mi sveglio sempre presto, ma trovandomi in vacanza può capitare di svegliarmi più tardi del solito e non è il massimo dover correre per fare colazione
2. tra i prodotti per la colazione mancano del tutto prodotti per intolleranze alimentari come glutine e lattosio (c'era solo il burro senza lattosio) e non ci sono indicati gli allergeni nei vari prodotti (torte, biscotti, brioche) che credo siano anche obbligatori per legge. In ogni caso mi sono sempre potuto arrangiare.

Very Nice Stay
Pros:

Location
Cleaness
Breakfast

Cons:

Arriving drinks not with ice… People from reception should pay more attention to it since customers arrive from outside with high temperatures and feels good to have fresh water not hot water…

Only some waiters talk english…

Badly managed lovely position needs refurbishment
Pros:

Perfect location right in the town centre facing the sea, on the lungomare by all the restaurants. Top floor terrace has potential but is a disaster used with places chairs bad food and pathetic cocktails. It could be fantastic if managed by competent people: just hire a superyacht hospitality team and give them access to a Swiss hospitality school, facilities / engineering support, a good interior designer fir a refurbishment and stick to some non negotiable principles: natural, healthy, customer first, personal warm service

Cons:

We need well-trained hotel management and staff who exhibit Swiss hotel school standards and superyacht-level attention to detail, rather than an improvised, guesthouse-level approach. Let’s start with the basics:Artificial Scent Diffusers: Get rid of them. If you want to scent the air, never use chemicals. Instead, deep clean the property with natural products, place plenty of fresh flowers, ventilate the spaces properly, and use natural fragrances. Relying on volatile organic compounds from synthetic air fresheners is both unhealthy and a sign of a cheap establishment; guests notice it the moment they walk in.Staff Presentation: Staff must be polished. This means tidy clothing, not poorly fitting or disheveled uniforms. Professional accents, excellent presentation, and freshly pressed clothes must be the absolute baseline requirement for everyone, from housekeeping to the front desk.Management Presence and Guest Recognition: Management must be visibly present, and staff must remember guests by name, preferences, and individual needs. As it stands, walking in feels like entering a pensione, not a well-run hotel.Facilities and Infrastructure: The facilities require a total technical overhaul. For instance, as many guests have pointed out, the air conditioning in the sea-facing rooms cannot keep up with the heat from the sun. The system lacks the capacity to cool the rooms down to 20 or 21 degrees because it cannot exchange heat efficiently. Aside from running constantly—which is highly annoying—it simply does not work. This is just one example; all technical infrastructure is outdated, inadequate, and needs fixing.Breakfast Quality: The breakfast merely ticks a box. Are the pastries freshly made from scratch? No, they taste frozen. Are the juices freshly squeezed? No. This is a basic breakfast designed just to say it is provided. It offers nothing memorable, delicious, unique, or healthy to write home about.
