Hotel Astoria

The breakfast buffet had plenty of variety, and the hotel is only a few steps from the sea. We had a spacious terrace, and the room and bathroom came with the comforts we needed, including air conditioning, a TV, and a small fridge that worked well. Everything was elegant, tidy, and clean. The staff were exceptionally friendly and professional, always ready to help. There’s covered parking, though spaces are limited. If you get a room facing the sea, the view is hard to beat.

There’s a lovely traditional feel to this charming hotel, just a short walk from the sea. The guests were polite and quiet, which made for a calmer stay than at many seaside hotels with noisy families. Breakfast offered plenty of fresh ingredients and good variety. The managers and staff were very kind without being intrusive.

Breakfast was good and varied by Italian hotel standards, and the location is hard to beat, just steps from the private beach with an umbrella and loungers. The room felt stuck in the 1980s, bare of art or any little details. Its bathroom had a shower without a tray and a really awful curtain. The sheets had holes, and both the mattress and pillow were basic. There was no dental kit, and the shampoo and shower gel came in single-use sachets. The air conditioning switched itself off during the night. The stay was pleasant, but at €100 a night in September, it was definitely overpriced for what you get. The staff were friendly, just not in a way that made us want to return.

The breakfast, included with the B&B, had a big selection of sweet and savory food and felt complete. We stayed three nights and were happy with our stay. The hotel faces the sea, and in about three minutes you’re on the private beach, where the umbrellas are spaced out nicely. It’s close to the train station, but that caused no disturbance at all, so we’d recommend it for a relaxing holiday. The property isn’t new, but it’s clean, comfortable, and the staff are friendly and helpful. Marianna, Samuela, and the owners were always ready to meet our requests. We’ll be back soon. Highly recommended! Titty and Gian Luca Bologna
