On the main road not in the village

The Hotel sits on its own next to the main road. Its possible to walk to the Vizzavona station but out of season there is nothing open. The evening food is tasty and plentiful - the 20€ plate of cheese and local meat was more than sufficicent for 2 as a starter and the mains are filling. Wine was a bit pricey. Great interior, an interesting old building and the owner plays live music apparently at the weekends.

Nicht mehr auf Höhe der Zeit.

Last minute Buchung. Das Hotel hat seine besten Jahre weit hinter sich. Der Service war moderat, das FrĂŒhstĂŒck außerordentlich ĂŒbersichtlich, Kaffee musste in der KĂŒche abgeholt werden, nach zwei Glas Orangensaft waren die VorrĂ€te erschöpft. Unser Zimmer war nicht nur klein, sondern auch dunkel. Selbst tagsĂŒber war elektrisches Licht nötig. Woher die formalen vier Sterne kommen, ist mir ein RĂ€tsel. Zwei wĂ€ren angebracht.

TrÚs bon établissement. Bon hotel et trÚs bon restaurant. Une seule suggestion : mieux gérer les accÚs à l'hÎtel: Que les clefs des chambres permettent d'ouvrir la porte principale de l'hÎtel sans avoir à demander au réceptionniste.

Bergsemester

Personalen var mycket vÀnlig Mycket dÄlig frukost med bara marmelad till bröd. Hotellet drog dessutom pengar för första natten lÄngt innan incheckning. Middag halvbra. Det finns restauranger i nÀrheten, men man mÄste gÄ pÄ skogsvÀg genom skogen och ficklampa behövs.
