This is the most beautiful hotel in Tropea. With only 10 rooms, it feels like the perfect boutique hotel to stay in on vacation. Staff are beyond excellent, and the location is quiet and only a few minutes to the centro.

What a beautiful property, with a lovely pool area, and buffett breakfast with coffee baristas, and hot egg dishes on request. I'm guessing the breakfast room doubles as a bar for the pool. Entire property looks brand new.

We travelled throughout Italy for 6 weeks and stayed in a lot of nice places. Sui Generis was the best of all places we stayed. The staff were excellent. They were always friendly, helpful, and willing to answer any questions or give helpful tips. Free, easy parking in a place where parking can difficult to find. Breakfast was fresh and almost like being in an a la carte restaurant. Compliments to the chef for the delicious cakes and pastries made fresh every day. The rooms were spacious and decorated well for the property. If I were to stay in Tropea again it would be at the Sui Generis.
