Parco dei Principi Resort & Spa

Guests praise the abundant and delicious breakfast in a panoramic room with friendly staff. The hotel's stunning elevated position offers breathtaking views near the beach. Daily towel changes ensure excellent cleanliness.

We have just returned from a week at this super hotel. It's by no means boutique, but it is freshly painted and redecorated and spotlessly clean. There is a lovely pool and hot tub with plenty of clean new loungers. Pool towels are 3 euros per day. Rooms have a free security safe. Beds and pillows are firm. It is built into a hillside with lovely sea views. All the staff are exceptional - the reception staff could not have been more helpful in resolving several problems caused by out travel agent's errors. The restaurant staff are charming, helpful and attentive without being effusive. Staff do not wear name badges so I cannot single out anyone, but all were the best we've come across in all our travelling. Dinner starts with a wide choice of buffet salads, then table service of a pasta course, a meat/fish/vegetarian course and finally dessert. The fish was delicious and perfectly cooked, the fresh fruit top quality. We enjoyed good local wine at realistic prices. We found all the food to be excellent - breakfast and dinner - with a wide range of dishes. Dinner is chosen at breakfast which could be an irritant, but it results in all choices being freshly cooked and served as required......and reduces waste. A hotel shuttle bus can be booked for trips to Forio and the beach - probably other places too, but that's all we used it for. The hotel is right beside the famous Mortello Gardens - a must when you are there. Overall we cannot speak highly enough of this simple hotel and its wonderful staff on a beautiful island. Thank you!

Definitely not a 4* hotel. We travelled with Voyage Prive, will not be using them again. Our first room 703 was dreadful, the young receptionist escorted us down, didn’t put on the lights just left the key with us, no wonder! Paid to upgrade the next day, the view was great, mattress much improved but the room still shabby. Broken wardrobe handle, mini bar fridge sitting beside unit it should be in, not 4* ! Garden full of weeds. Pool bar more like a kiosk, limited food served. You can’t have lunch in the restaurant unless you order at breakfast. Dinner served from 8-9 but they really expect you at 8. The food was nice and the room was clean, our maid was good, and one of the receptionists was cheery and helpful. But really no other positives
