Albergo Diffuso Mannois

I can't say enough nice things about this hotel. We stayed in the main building, where breakfast is served and the reception area is housed. My wife and I had a large suite, which had its own small patio and outdoor seating area. Our adult children (in their 20's) had two other nice rooms just off the breakfast patio. All of the rooms were great. The breakfast buffet is very good and served in a gorgeous indoor/outdoor patio area. Reception was very helpful. We were able to rent bikes from the hotel (no charge) and ride through town to the hotel's private beach. It was a really special stay. I highly recommend this hotel if you are staying in the Orosei area.

We stayed a short distance from the reception building both in the old town. We found the accommodation comfortable clean and well maintained. Excellent breakfast at reception and staff were friendly and helpful. The best car parking was nearby at Saint Antonia piazza which was safe and available. Best restaurant was Pasta e Pasta.

We booked a suite with a terrace and got room 6 in the main building. The room had 2 double beds and a very large bathroom. There was a balcony/terrace that was very nice too. At night, it was nice and quiet. The AC worked very well. The BREAKFASTS were AWESOME, especially the staff member who worked there ( who made drinks, sat us, etc). The breakfast catered to American and UK type travelers (eggs, bacon) but had Italian typical options as well including a large honeycomb that you could take pieces off. The room was spacious, but electrical outlets were at a minimum. We had to unplug lamps to plug in our devices. We did not use the beach and there was a confusing "offer" about that when we checked in (something about getting housekeeping every other day or something). We did sign up for the pasta making class which seemed a little pricey for each person ($80), but in the end it was a fun experience and we would recommend it. PARKING was very confusing at first - when we arrived there was a traffic jam in the street and everyone was honking. It sorted out and we ended up finding a place in one of the suggested lots (about a 5-8 min walk). Our biggest complaint was the shower. There was no bottom lip to contain the flowing water and the shower curtain did not reach the floor, so lots of water seeped onto the floor. We let staff know and housekeeping responded by giving us extra towels to sop up the water every day. The other nice thing about the hotel was that you got daily emails asking if everything was ok. I would recommend this place. It's not super cheap, but a unique stay. It is very easy to walk around town to restaurants from the hotel.
