What a place! The town has a cool Cannes vibe but nicer and less crowds. The hotel is terrific and a time capsule from the 30’s with great upgrades notably a pool. Food was great at the hotel as well. Staff friendly and accommodating

Old Italy meets Great Gatsby

I loved this place, felt like something from an old film. My teens were even a little "wowed" by the place. The breakfast was great, something for everyone. The pool wa great and of course access to the beach. Great place to spend 2 nights

8/10 Very good

Room ok, but... the FRIDGE was NOT WORKING and had a very bad smell in inside!!! I had my my medications to keep cool in there and realised only on the third day that all was not right! Also, the windows - the hotel being very old - would not open/close easily. The outside green shutters totaly rusty and hard to open. Staff ok, although following my request for extra pillows&douvet - there were none in the wardrobe like in ALL the hotels I have ever stayed! - a member of staff entered my room while the "do not disturb" sign was on and just THREW the items on my unmade bed, in a very uncerimonious way, it seemed to me, and I found them on my return from my breakfast. The correct way I would have expected from such a 4☆ hotel, would have been to place them tidely on the table, perhaps, or the chair or the wardrobe!? Not just chucked on the unmade bed! Seemed to me a rather SHODDY way of doing things! Breakfast: totally marvellous! Bar, not used.

Fabulous Old Style Hotel

The public areas and rooms are fantastic and the staff very welcoming. The pool area could do with an update, but perhaps this is next as our room was freshly decorated with a lovely new bathroom. Excellent breakfast and perhaps the best ever scrambled eggs from a buffet. Dinner was fine, but not nearly as good as breakfast. Lovely pre dinner drinks in the cocktail bar with a nice selection of canapés. If you enjoy old world style, you will enjoy staying here.

Beautiful location and hotel. Clientele is elderly. Would recommend for older crowd. Younger people may want to consider something else.

This was a last minute one night booking...the hotel front desk staff very nice, helpful, the only thing we arrived late and parking was full. The front desk lady who checked us in ( forgot her name) offer her parking spot if we couldn't find street parking. We did find parking behind the hotel. This was very thoughtful of her. Breakfast was delicious with plenty to chose from...wish we could hv enjoyed more of this beautiful hotel.
Carmen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Struttura suggestiva e storica, stanze pulite spaziose e bagni funzionali, grave pecca la prima colazione che è assimilabile all'offerta di un *** middle profile, visto il costo della stanza con la I colazione inclusa non si comprende questa mancanza. Personale gentile e cortese, vista la categoria e il costo sarebbe utile prevedere a favore dell'ospite pagante la possibilità di late check out perché sentirsi bussare alla porta alle 10,50 per liberare la stanza è poco elegante e sicuramente imbarazzante.
Marco, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fint hotell, med flott hage, god service og fint bassengområdet. Det trekker ned helhetsinntrykket tilgang til strand koster ekstra. Det samme gjelder om en vil ha omlett til frokost. Det koster 16€.
Tarjei Ræder, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Second time staying at this beautiful property. What a treat to stay at this perfectly preserved beachside resort. So elegant! Front desk told us it’s all original to the early 1900’s and it’s wonderful. Breakfast buffet is superb. Dinner menu changes every night and we enjoyed dining in 2 of our 3 nights there as the menu, service, and food is better than anything across the street at the beach. Lunch by the pool is no exception to the fabulous food and service. The hotel, and area in general, had a Studio Ghibli vibe - antique and old world infused with modern amenities. We pulled up “Kiki’s Delivery Service” on Netflix and snuggled together watching it our first night. If you know, you know. If you don’t, watch the charming movie!

Loved everything about it - It was beautiful - great breakfast spread and the location was great right in front of the beach - The only downside was the weather - the 2 days we were there it rained constantly
