Overall it was a good experience. The pool was great. Not overly friendly staff. Bed was too hard for me. Public transport was just outside the premises so it was easy to get around. Would stay here again.

The staff and overall the entire property is wonderfull , my only complaint is there is no insulation in the walls so you can hear even the smallest noise from any room near yours.

Dragonara a beautiful spot in Abruzzo Italy!
Dragonara is a beautiful hotel and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms are very clean . The food was fantastic. The Expresso bar and its staff were superb! Their pool was beautiful and very clean. Staff members always kept watch and made sure their customers were taken care of. I would highly recommend Dragonara and I would stay there again without a thought. I would recommend getting security boxes in the rooms and having access to an iron and ironing board . Regardless I would stay there again.. parking was free and easily available.The airport in Pescara was only 3 miles away.

Convienient to the airport
This hotel is basically all you need if you have an early flight the next day as it is a short drive to the airport. There is a shuttle but it doesn't run until 7 am or so and you have to pre-arrange. The parking is fairly secure. There is a nice little grocery across the street. The restaurant opens at 7 pm and is fairly priced.

Nice hotel for a short visit
Nice hotel. Nice pool with plenty of shade and sun beds. Tried their restaurant a few times and it was better than what you usually expect from hotel food. Reception staff very helpful and accommodating when we requested to change our room as it was looking over to a big wall. However the hotel is next to a motorway and in the middle of nowhere. You will need a car. Another issue is that they hire out the poolside for weddings. They push the sunbeds and the hotel customers aside to accommodate the wedding party. Not nice trying to swim when there are wedding tables and wedding guests pondering around

Ok, if you want to crash somewhere
The hotel is situated about 10 minutes from the airport. We choose to stay there after a long flight before driving further in land.
The hotel is ok but a bit tired. Decor needs updating. Staff speaks some English but generally friendly.
Rubish breakfast (if you want some eggs the only option there is boiled egg, no omelette or fried eggs are available).

Nice Hotel, excellent breakfast
Hotel is very nice, clean rooms , well equipt and comfortable . The staff are helpful by picking you up from the airport not all of them have a good understanding of English but they do make an effort and most are helpful and friendly it is a family run hotel and they do run a professional service .It has a lovely pool area and breakfast is of great value and standard especially if your hungry the buffet is excellent and has a lot of variety especially when you have children. I would recommend this hotel however the only downfall is the area as there is limited places to go and eat, but there is a supermarket across the road , a car is advisable to get around and the hotel has a large protected car park.
There is a bus stop close by that will take you to the town centre and beach as the centre it is not close by.
Excellent hotel for a stop over after flight and before you go or leave to your destination but I wouldn't use it for a week holiday break unless you have a car.
