Hotel la Tavola Rotonda

The hotel is indeed, as many other people have commented, in need of maintenance. The potential is certainly there but the upkeep is quite poor. We had a large, superior room which is quite basic. With a little paint and some new furniture it could be so much better. It feels as if it was just left in the current state without having any work done for decades. The bed was comfortable and the air conditioning certainly worked very well. The bathroom was spacious but needs a good scrub. The toiletries were the cheapest possible and only had soap and shower gel. The breakfast had a lot of sweet pastries so if you’re trying to maintain a somewhat healthy diet, it’ll be nearly impossible. The selection was also very inconsistent so on some morning they had boiled eggs and on others they didn’t. 90% of the food available was sweet. The pool area is also very basic. It was, however, clean and had a bar where you can buy drinks, ice cream and lunch. We ordered two poke bowls, 15e each which were very disappointing so definitely not recommended. The pool is also heavily used by people who are not staying at the hotel. On the weekend, when they had a lot of external visitors, they point you a sun lounger so you are not able to choose one yourself. This was very confusing as we were the 1st ones by the pool that day. We did manage to agree on where we wanted to stay but it did feel very strange that you don’t have any say in where you want to stay by the pool. You get pool towels from the reception which are not changed so we had to use the same towels for three days. The general look and feel of the hotel is quite poor, unfortunately. There’s no consistency and everything is rusty and in need of maintenance. We didn’t eat at the restaurant (there are some very nice options nearby) because of our poor experience with the breakfast and the poke bowls.
