This hotel has it all. Great location- walk to the port or the castle; on the ocean and near the main shopping district. They have a shuttle that will take you to the port. Taxis on Ischia are very pricey (no meters that I could find) so the shuttle is a great bonus. The building has a wonderful old world feel, and the rooms are quiet and peaceful. The beds are comfortable and the linens crisp (I love that). Lots of soft towels as you use them. The thermal pools are perfect and clean, and a joy to use even when the weather is a bit iffy. The beach area is fine, with lots of chaises and a beach attendant who was attentive and friendly. The hotel staff could not have been better. All the front desk staff speaks good English and are very helpful. Got a great recommendation for dinner in town (Ristorante Dortas - no need to go to Naples for Pizza, as this one is fabulous) The breakfasts are wonderful and the chef makes great omelettes. Fresh squeezed OJ to start your day. The restaurant staff are terrific, all in white suit jackets like the finest (old world) establishments. The housekeeping folks are always greeting you happily (“buongiorno!”) I would like to say congratulations to the Manager, Mr. Cipolleta. Somehow the staff is always ready to help and seem to enjoy their jobs. To hear the staff laughing with the guests is wonderful and a rare thing. It’s not easy to find a hotel of this quality.
