Hotel Punta Imperatore

Beautiful laid back boutique hotel just a few minutes walk from the hotel to the sea, thermal spa and quaint town center with amazing restaurants and some cute shops. You will love the casualness of this hotel, the their thermal pools that are nice and warm and the relaxed ambiance that surrounds you. Look for Elena at the Front Desk, she is so helpful, polished and professional and a wonderful person all around. Also, at the Bar, Francesco will amaze you with his delicious (using the freshest ingredients and his skilled techniques), Instagram ready cocktails. He is so personable and will make your evening so fun. The Hotel closes for the winter. You must add this to your Bucket List. We'll be back!! xoxoxo

We went as part of a Broadway travel package that included excursions and were under the impression it would be 4 star accommodation. This venue is old, tired and unkempt. The reception staff were dismissive and sarcastic so it's certainly not 4* by British standards. The transfers and excursions organised not by the hotel were mostly well executed. The poolside at the hotel was lovely with great views. There is no entertainment to speak of and we witnessed another guest being charged €10 for per bottle of beer on the 'show night' which was normally €4 and they were not told there would be such a big uplift ( they'd had 4 so were not happy!) The cleaning staff regard the 'do not disturb' on the door as permission to enter and the room itself (129) was so dated with dirty sheets, plug sockets that didn't use our eu adapters and lights that worked intermittently. No tea/coffee making facilities and when we asked for a kettle they don't provide them and it was a nightmare trying to get some hot water (which was microwaved!!) from the bar. The barman was the friendliest staff member in fairness. Breakfast was poor, mostly cakes and pastries everyday, hard boiled eggs, awful scrambled version. No toast making facilities and average rea/coffee/juice selections. Some fresh fruit mostly melon, plums & pears. There are no dinner options and in October very few external choices that you can walk to so finding dinner was such hassle. We knew it was bnb but expected to have more choices locally - molo11 and bagno were nice though. The beach along from the hotel is lovely.
