Best Hotels in Lido Azzurro, Italy

A good place: it is certainly worth a visit. The hotel is located almost on the beach (in fact not very beautiful and not equipped): but between the hotel and the beach there is a swimming pool, very beautiful and clean and that certainly does not regret the lack of the equipped beach, The hotel also has an animation service, There are also tables on the pool to dine, stripped from the noise of the sea for a romantic dinner. The kitchen is scary but well cooked. This is a well-managed, well-organised structure: staff is discrete and professional. In all aspects, the cleaning, pleasant to view, the rooms are comfortable and most of them with pleasant views of the sea and the pool (which insists between the hotel and the beach). I mean, a happy oasis but the surroundings are to forget and it is a sin, we are attached to Taranto and a minimum of urban decoration one would like it. In conclusion, 5 stars in the structure and 1 star in the area where the hotel is emerging: there is nothing and you can't really do anything.

Stayed here for business for a couple of nights as part of a large group. It was not a great hotel and a lot of our group were unhappy with this property. It's a medium rise on the waterfront - the waterfront here is a working container port and what seems to be anItalian Navy port. Not what you generally think of when you say waterfront. The hotel checking was fine and the staff were nice. However...... Major renovations going on / one elevator working out of 2 and sometimes that one was an issue / really lacklustre breakfast options / swimming pool unusable. I can see why they're renovating - everything about this hotel seems old and dated - but you're not in a resort / holiday area. The room was an ok size, the wi-fi worked, but a bit slow. The room could be made nice and dark (good curtains) and the view of the bay was still a nice water view. There's many other old looking hotels all around this area and I don't thin this is the only one in this state of repair. There is a great Pizza place right across the road. The Old Town of Taranto is a 20min walk away and it's well worth is with great photo ops and plenty of bars / restaurants that seems to all be reasonably priced. Maybe this hotel will be OK when they finish renovations, but it's not in a very touristy area.

Must try to experience one night stay at Trulli. Very cold inside and no need to turn on air-con. Strategic location and just 5 mins walk to the main attraction. Reasonable price and with complimentary breakfast at one of the cafe. Nice croissant offered by them :)

Hotel that can't be defined as a 4-star honesty. Surely quiet and with a good cleaning degree. The rooms are very spartan, the bathroom within the limit of acceptable. The kit provided is limited to two bottles of shampoo nothing more. I have to say that by applying directly to the reception you are immediately active to answer the request ........ma why not find what is needed before! Kitchen is not bad and staff is kind and professional. Breakfast is very poor, two sticks of cooked pig and soft as cheese. The soda eggs they offer are GELATE!!!! and unfortunately not fresh, better avoid them. Thank you to Mr. John, who is responsible for the room , hyper-infarkt in meeting the customer's demands.

Don’t get me wrong the rooms are nice but the place has bars in front of its windows. We also were asked not to open the windows due to the airconditioning. In our room the mini fridge was happily buzzing but didn’t cool anything. The shower was amazing and the bed was good. Also If you can’t find the TV check the mirror 😜 On top of the hotel is the pool with bar and a restaurant. We were there 2 days and both days there was a party of none guests with a dj. We were “allowed” to sit there as paying guests how nice of them right. Last day we left early so we got breakfast at 7:35 as it only starts at 7 am and they managed to have cold sunny side up eggs, cold bacon and cold sausages which is surprising as it was the only thing that needed to be warm in the otherwise splendid selection of foods ( yes the pancakes are cold too) with loads of fruit great honey and cakes. All this stuff isn’t more of a missed opportunity then anything else for an otherwise great hotel. Just don’t get run over trying to leave with your car at the front gate :-)

saving grace of a holiday ruined by bad weather. Whilst one might expect to use the aircon in the South of Italy in late May, the heating was needed, and worked a treat. Rooms were kept extremely clean, even under the bed - I dropped something and had to go under, scrupulously clean. As was the entire hotel. beds were very comfortable (and I do like/need a hard bed) for my back, but all went very well. The pool and area looked lovely but far too cold to think about using it. The grounds are kept very well too. Breakfast was the usual italian display of cakes, but they also catered for the UK contingent with some bacon and scrambled eggs, and the normal platters of cold meats and some cheeses for other european nations. We also had half board, and had a 3 course meal every night which was always delicious., and never cold. we also got receipts for our bar bills, so very easy to add up what we had to pay at the end of the holiday. the hotel is in a lovely small village, but if not in a tour group, you will need a car to get around anywhere. There seems to be a very good restaurant next door, but it hadn't opened for the season when we were there.

Nice hotel, great environment.

To start I want to make it clear that the staff were very friendly & helpful, and I am not commenting on the rooms in the main hotel as I did not see them. This review refers to the 'country' rooms and the pool. We arrived in your hotel as agreed on the evening of September 30th and were shown to the smallest hotel room I have experienced (14). It had a shared ‘patio’ and no windows…..plus the safe was locked, not that that mattered as it wasn’t attached to anything so anyone could have walked out with it. The bathroom was perfect for a slim person but being a little portly, it was a challenge. A genuinely large person would not have been able to get into the bathroom!! at all. It was tiny and not comfortable to use. The decorations were fine and the room was clean. To say that it was small was an understatement. I had to go outside to change my mind!! We immediately complained and the next day we were moved to a larger non-refurbished room (5). Whilst larger it was unmodernised and still had no windows. The room was in poor condition with cheap furniture and a separate bed in the ‘entry room’ that was not exactly clean. There is no way that this was 4* accommodation. It reminded me of the Australian soap called Prisoner Cell Block H (we immediately christened the room as such!!). It was like a cheap motel and warranted 2* at best. Like I said, I am commenting on the 'country' rooms only. Breakfast was very basic and the 'chef' seemed genuinely shocked that someone might want an omelette. The coffee was awful but the bottled fruit juices were a nice touch. The final issue was that when my wife enquired about pool towels, she was told that they would be €10.00 per towel and that if we wanted to change it when dirty we would need to pay another €10.00. Bearing in mind that the plastic beds by the pool were filthy, this would have been cost of €20.00 per day. The pool itself was okay but you had to wear a swimming cap to use it...which of course they charged for!!! I have never stayed in a hotel where you were charged for a pool towel and this should certainly not be the case in a 4* hotel. This was denied by the hotel after we walked out but my wife absolutely validated the information. In addition, the wifi was utterly useless, even in the main building. We left on Saturday Sept 2nd as we had simply had enough of staying in the 'country' rooms, which did not meet 4* standards in any way.

I'm almost Tarantino, I've been here at least twice a year from 1998 to today, I realize that standards have fallen from the 1990s, but here it is overdrived. The rooms are aestheticly bad, old and uncomfortable. You don't feel a little cocktailed by entering one of them, among other things they define ”superor” rooms with a refrigerator (watch) and a ”unique” matrimonial mattress. The breakfast is sad and hospitalized, especially because it is made of discount stones and a NUMERO coffee. It's a box, the minimum flexibility of everything, the keys must always be left at reception, don't raise your voice, if someone comes to you, they must leave the document and cannot stay too much in the room (this already before Covid). It is sorry for the staff, who do his duty and sometimes is also kind, but they also seem to be undergoing a bad management and move like robots, fearing to be wrong and to bear account of any small decision. The guilt of who is but not who manages it, among other things, when I found a more prominent employee than others, the same disappeared in a few months, but they pay them at least? Or do they prefer to keep only those who are able to claim the ”Caserma” without wanting to grow and make the structure grow? I'm sorry to say that, but would it be better if it was detected by a Chain more than to continue like that ...
