The swiming pool was nice even though had a layer of human fat on the top, the doors of the shower box was broken. A very outdated hotel. The only thing which was amazing was the breakfast. For one night it was ok but i wouldn't suggest to stay more than that.

Aircon not working

Aircon not working for our 2 nights stay. I think it was since a few days looking at the comments. Nobody seems to care. They say it will be resolve by tomorrow morning (everyday) and that it’s not that bad…!! It was 28 degrees in our room. Our 7 months old baby is sleeping very well at night usually, and those 2 nights were terrible. Otherwise, the pool was very plaisant. Restaurant was ok, I would suggest to go explore other restaurant on the boadwalk.

Ok, men langt fra 4 stjerner

Rent og korrekt med god frokost, men langt fra et 4 stjerners hotell. Gammelt og slitt, rommene bærer preg av ikke å ha blitt oppgradert på denne siden av årtusenskiftet. Bildene på nettsiden ser mye bedre ut enn virkeligheten. Bra beliggenhet rett ved stranden, men området er dødt og stranden lite velholdt. 30-40 minutter å gå til Scala dei Turchi, og 15 minutter å kjøre til Valle dei Templi. Da vi var der i tidlig mai var det for tidlig for å bruke bassenget og uteområdet var avstengt pga arbeid.

Porto Empedocle è un posto terribile. La struttura è un buon appoggio per visitare la Valle dei Templi, è tenuta discretamente (anche se un po'datata), è pulita. Il rapporto qualità prezzo è corretto, ma non la sceglierei nuovamente.

Das Hotel strahlt den Charme eines edlen Hotels vergangener Zeiten aus. Die Lage direkt am Meer ist toll, auch wenn es direkt am Hotel sehr flach ins Meer geht. Obwohl wir im Oktober da waren, war der Pool bei Sonnenschein geöffnet. Beim Frühstück hat mir der Service gar nicht gefallen - Plastikbecher für uns, Gläser für Studiosus. Den Kaffee bekamen wir z.T. erst nach dem Frühstück, obwohl 2 Damen an der Bar waren und eine servierte und abräumte. Der Frühstückssaal ist sehr elegant. Die Auswahl gut, auch wenn frisches Obst fehlte. Die Rezeption war jederzeit zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit.

The staff are great; friendly and polite. The hotel was very clean however the condition is dreadful, well past its sell by date! Some major works need doing. The rooms are on the small size too, and do not have any tea/coffee making facilities. A shame because you can see the hotel has so much potential. Great to be right on the beach, plenty of parking. The pool is a good size but again needs some TLC although it is cleaned daily.
