Pros:

Struttura e posizione eccellente, colazione ottima e potenzialità elevate. Rispetto ai giudizi negativi letti prima di partire, probabilmente relativi alla precedente gestione, devo dire che ha pienamente soddisfatto le nostre aspettative. Grande plauso alla nuova gestione per l'impegno che sta attivando, personale gentilissimo e disponibile, piscina favolosa e panorama bellissimo. Da ritornare.

Pros:

Erg mooi gelegen hotel, royaal en mooi aangelegd. Vriendelijke en behulpzaam personeel. Goed ontbijt en keuken de uitgevoerde renovaties beloven veel voordekomende jaren..

Cons:

Het restaurant blonk niet uit in gezelligheid. Hopelijk verbetert dit in de komende tijd. Het personeel in het restaurant was jong, onervaren en niet voldoende gecoacht.

Schöne Aussicht
Pros:

Einzigartige Lage, Blick auf Elba.
Das Essen sehr gut 👍.
Sehr schöne Anlage, aber etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Gehört renoviert.

Cons:

Die Straße zur Anlage hinauf befindet sich in einem sehr schlechten Zustand, da ist Gefahr im Verzug.
Das Service ist eher demontiert, bis auf den Maitre, der ist sehr bemüht kann eben nicht alles machen.
Rezeption super und sehr hilfsbereit.
