This hotel is not for people who enjoy food! I was so looking forward to beautiful pasta dishes, cooked to perfection but I was sadly extremely disappointed. Each day you had to choose a starter and a main course for the following day! 3 choices of starters, 2 of which were usually pasta or noodles and 3 choices for main. If the main was chicken with roast potatoes you literally received a small piece of chicken with about 8 small cubes of potatoes - no vegetables and no seconds. Portion size was the same for everyone - small! I watched other people being as disappointed as I was. Who offers ‘a selection of cheeses’ or ‘melon and Parma ham’ as a main course? The table at which you were seated remained yours for the length of your stay and was the same number as your room number. We were very lucky that ours was at the front window overlooking the lake but that was only because we had changed rooms. Having booked a twin room we were given a small double bed which couldn’t be separated so asked for a different room. If we had kept the initial room number our table at dinner would have been bang in the middle! We gave up eating the evening meals after 4 days and ate out in Limone as there were plenty of lovely restaurants and not overpriced. I have to say that the buffet breakfast was fairly good although the only hot food offered daily was scrambled eggs, boiled eggs and bacon. The fruit selection was really good. Also, in the evening you could help yourself to the salad bar but nothing changed with that - the same food on offer each day. Apart from the food the hotel was ok, no more, no less. Tiny rooms with small balconies which could barely seat 2 people. The hotel is set fairly high up overlooking the lake, so beautiful views, but not great for anyone with poor mobility. We travelled with Newmarket Holidays, going on coach trips for 4 days, for each of them we had to meet the coach transfer at the coach park in Limone, which involved a 5 - 10 minute walk down a steep hill and back up at the end of the day. The coach wouldn’t drop us outside the Hotel even though it drove past it - bizarre. Ladies, if you need to use the hairdryer you will need a lot of time! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a hairdryer like it - it’s a hose attached to the wall which you have to keep clicked out for it to work - plus it has no directional capability at all! All in all, a dreadful hotel which I shan’t be revisiting, and by the way, it’s exactly the same at it’s sister hotel, Hotel Azzura, so beware and avoid at all costs.
