Hotel Manzoni

The room was comfortable if a little tired. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was good to begin with but when the restaurant became very busy (serving 150 covers) it was like being in a school canteen so it was very noisy and often the food was only luke warm. The breakfasts were adequate but the hot option was often cold!

The hotel is dated .The net curtains around the hotel are stained and old.The furnishings are old the whole place needs an overhaul to bring it up to a decent standard.The waiters and waitresses are very attentive, especially Simone!The reception staff are not people friendly .They don't greet you with a smile ,they can hardly lift their eyes form their work to hand you your keys each day and their daily interaction is non existent. We went with Newmarket Holidays .The two reps Danielle and Elizabeth are excellent staff who seem to be constantly at hand to help.Elizabeth even had a close family bereavement and was back to work after to one day to help Danielle. The hotel food was average .Great fish meals ,some great beef dishes and nice pasta.It was all quite salty ,so be aware.There is an area of some vegetables and salad to add to your meal each night .The bottles of wine addd up to your bill-for example red Syrah per bottle =24 euros and white Vermentino per bottle =9 Euros, a bottle of water = 3 Euros and 1 Coca Cola =6 Euros ,1 Tanqueray gin and tonic= 12 Euros.The location of the hotel is good with easy access to the lovely park and local bars and restaurants.The local tourist information centre is 50 metres away at the end of the Roda. The swimming pool was covered as it was not great weather's we did n't use it.Others did .It is mandatory to wear a purchased swimming hat and bath robes.It id not look as nice as the hotel pictures.We had a room with a balcony and the view is just of the front of the hotel ,so no great views.The last night we were there we found a cockroach in our room .We did not notify staff as there was another cockroach sighting in the dining room the following morning when we left and guests notified staff of this.I would not want to stay again due to this issue.Well done to. the restaurant staff ,we hope you have a good season!!
