  : Location is very good. Property garden is beautiful as well as the decoration. Breakfast was very good. Cleanl area. Good hospitality.
  : As it was a very old hotel, rooms were too old and small and air condition was a bit problem as its central. Douche was leaking water.

  : A great location on the main promenade; the staff were helpful and friendly, and very patient while we practised our italian; breakfast was plentiful. Evening drinks on the terrace while people-watching was a delight. The car park was well sited and it was interesting to see an array of smart sports cars each day. The hotel pool was large enough and not overly busy.
  : Non-dairy products (oat milk, non-butter spread) would have been helpful to complement the fresh fruit, toast & jam options for vegans. The use of sunbeds/umbrella on the private beach was a bit hefty at 50 euros a day.

  : The location was excellent. Right in the heart of the restaurants and bars yet not too noisy and just across the road from the beach. Only ten minutes by foot from the train station. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Room service was good too - the electronic indicators on the doors which showed if someone was in the room or not were useful as we never were disturbed despite sleeping in later some mornings. The 24 hour manned reception desk was great especially as we had to leave very early on our last day.
  : The air con was not very strong and made a loud noise so we didn't sleep well some nights when it was too hot. They did offer for us to move rooms to be fair but we weren't sure it would be any better elsewhere as we were told the air con was working as normal.
