We were there during a slow time of year. Very few guests in the hotel. We received excellent service from the staff. Not many dining options in Bovalino so we ate dinner in the hotel. The food was excellent.

Fint hotel for en enkelt overnatning
Overordnet set et rigtig fint hotel, dog var der høj fest indtil ved 1 tiden om natten på hotellet, så det var en smule svært at falde i søvn. For en enkelt nat kan hotellet sagtens anbefales.

La struttura si erge nel lido di Bovalino Marina, a pochi chilometri da Locri, Siderno, Gioiosa Marina, ed altre frazioni nei dintorni. Molto comoda è anche la stazione dove il treno raggiunge verso sud Reggio Calabria mentre verso nord arriva a Catanzaro e Crotone. L'hotel a sua disposizione ha un suo tratto di spiaggia, dove dispone di ombrelloni e sdrai.

Vorsicht wenn Sie dieses Hotel buchen. Wir sind angekommen der abgebildete Pool der angeprissen wird war gar nicht verfügbar. Vom Strandservice keine Spur. Der Strand war leer. Keine Schirme keine Liegen keine Strandbar. Der Ort gleicht einem Geisterort. Ich glaube das niemand dort wohnt. Das Hotel ist keine 3Sterne wert und absolut keine 5Sterne. Wir können das Hotel absolut nicht weiter empfehlen. Es ist das Geld nicht.wert. Wir sind unverzüglich abgereist. Sehr Sehr schade. Ein 5 Sterne ohne Pool und ohne Strandservice und das Mitte Settember geht gar nicht.

Ikke et 5 stjernes hotell men hyggelig for et kort opphold på et ellers så sørgelig sted. Fantastisk mottagelse når vi ankom med kanapeer og prosecco i resepsjonen.

Wird wohl das beste Hotel in der Umgebung sein. 5 Sterne sind verdient. Leider ist der Ort eine Katastrophe, speziell in der Nebensaison.

Hotel imponente con camere dotate/datate di ogni comfort. La struttura si vede che ha ormai diversi anni e che all'inizio è stata costruita senza badare a spese. E' presente la jacuzzi in ogni camera (almeno al 3° piano), un ampio terrazzino e gli spazi sono comodi. E' evidente che negli anni non si è provveduto ad effettuare la dovuta manutenzione, così come l'aggiornamento delle tv (tubo catodico e con le immagini ingiallite). In terrazza è presente una piscina ormai dismessa. Credo sia un albergo che punta più sui ricevimenti che sulla parte vera e propria di albergo. D'altronde è anche vero che si tratta di un 5 stelle in mezzo al nulla. In definitiva se avete bisogno di dormire in zona, visti anche i prezzi dell'albergo che sono più che buoni considerando che altrove si paga 160 euro per un 3 stelle con gli stessi problemi.
