I didn't stay at the hotel but ate at their sidewalk restaurant. It was wonderful. The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and the view was spectacular.

We stayed in one of the suites on the 2nd floor. What a wonderful experience! A beautiful 19th century building with lovely architectural details, the suite had high ceilings, the sitting room and bedroom have balconies facing the sea, the bathroom was spacious and airy. An exceptional breakfast is served in front of the building on the lungomare. The location is fantastic: right on the sea without car traffic in front as is usually the case, and a great lido is just next door (highly recommend Lido Santa Maria). Plenty of restaurants within easy walking distance. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful - with recommendations for restaurants, boat tours, parking, etc. The hotel's bar serves a fantastic aperitivo, i.e. cocktails that come with an assortment of snacks, which were excellent! Perfect place to watch incredible sunsets. Highly recommend this hotel without hesitation! The only warning is that there is no elevator, but if you are able to walk, it shouldn't be a problem. The staff will gladly help you with your luggage.

One of the best hotels I've stayed in. Quiet, private with great service. Secure parking is available a 5 min walk from the hotel. Incredible sea views and short walk to the beach and local shops. We had an amazing sea side breakfast every morning and our room was cleaned everyday. Highly recommend.
