Centrally located, states on booking site there is a pool, but there is no pool, very dissatisfied with this as I specifically booked and paid for that. Beds are very uncomfortable. Our bathroom smelt of rotten eggs even after it was serviced everyday, and TV channels did not work

One of the best locations on the island for first time visitors. You get off the ferry and in a three minute walk you are at the hotel. The hotel is italian-style with the owner checking you in and someone else at the front desk helping out too. The owner takes pride in his hotel you can tell so make sure to not complain or give him any problems and then he is friendly. The breakfast buffet has fresh fruit (watermelon when we stayed), pastries, toast, and juice and coffee machines to pick your own drinks. The location was quiet since it’s not on the Main Street, but close enough to the main area where you can walk. There is free parking behind (up the sidewalk) the hotel if you rent a moped (40/day) or a car (60-70/day). The hotel has an uppper roof Terrance great for photos of the island 360 and a Terrence in the second floor and the bottom floor has a court yard with trees and feels like you are walking in a forest. The breakfast room is large the waitors cleaning the tables dress up to clean your dishes like people working at a fancy restaurant with black pants and white dress shirts. Nice touch . We did not try the massages there but there were options to book them. The beds were italian-style as expected in a less expensive hotel in Italy ( they could use a memory foam topper if you are use to American beds); they were hard mattresses but as expected there. The quadruple rooms are small (two single beds and one queen) but have nice balconies and a mini fridge. Recommend

Hotel datato, ma funzionale. Un buon compromesso se si cerca un hotel a buon prezzo in centro a Lipari in alta stagione. Camera minimale ma ha tutto il necessario. L’ambiente in generale risulta un po’ lasciato andare e buio, con qualche miglioria potrebbe diventare un hotel di buon livello, soprattutto data la posizione.

L’hôtel est très bien situé, dans le centre ville et à proximité du quai de débarquement du ferry. On aime sa touche de deco à l’italienne! En revanche, la literie est assez sommaire, quelques insectes dans les chambres assez humides, et allez au petit déjeuné assez tôt si vous voulez des œufs…

sono molto affezionato a questo albergo, dove sono tornato dopo esattamente 21 anni, trovandolo come lo ricordavo, con la stessa atmosfera piacevolmente démodé. La cortesia del personale è massima, ma ovviamente si deve avere consapevolezza di trovarsi in un luogo assolutamente old-style

La struttura è datata, poco curata e fatiscente. L’igiene lascia molto a desiderare. Una macchia sul pavimento è rimasta lì per 3 giorni sui 4 di pernottamento. Il bagno grande nota dolente, rubinetteria ossidata, privo di piatto doccia, sanitari scheggiati degli anni ‘60. Impianto elettrico obsoleto. Il personale è deludente è appena sufficiente nei modi. Il momento della colazione è come elemosinare cibo all’angolo della strada. Consiglio vivamente di leggere le molte recensioni presenti su internet e dargli credito. Pensavo fossero esagerate ma ho provato con mano tutto quanto descritto da altri. Provati sia hotel di lusso che campeggi e questa struttura sembra poter non essere affiancata nemmeno ad una esperienza di camping. Il costo non è commisurato al servizio offerto. Unica nota positiva la posizione centrale. Necessita di urgenti lavori di manutenzione e ristrutturazione. Sconsigliato.
