Hotel la Sorgente

Gorgeous! This hotel is so clean quiet with a wonderful pool area. Breakfast was great! Highly recommend this hidden gem.

The hotel was excellent, the facilities were very good. All of the staff were polite and friendly, the service was second to none and the food was absolutely amazing.

The location near the sea is lovely. The hotel is very clean and has a very nice salt water pool with plenty of sun loungers. We booked by mistake a promo room via TUI and this room was very old with very uncomfortable beds. This room was so bad that we decided to upgrade to a room with terrace (the only room available during our stay) at an extra cost of Euro 1350 for 9 days. Last year we had amazing dinners in the hotel but unfortunately the chef retired last year. The new chef is not up to the job: We have never eaten so badly in Italy, the meals were tasteless/bland.

Well

This hotel was slightly dated like most in Italy but was spotlessly clean. Very little noise from other rooms (only suitcases being move when people were arriving / leaving) . Never a problem getting a sun bed by the pool and the lifeguards always went out of their way to moves beds, get you a towel etc. Very chilled/ relaxing, although i don't think the hotel was busy. The swimming pool was lovely and a dip in the sea when it wasn't too rough. Was nice to sit outside at breakfast although the breakfast wasn't great. Had lunch at the hotel once. Portions were too big at lunch, would be nice to have sandwich options. Although helpful, we did find the staff a bit miserable. Maybe as it was the end of the season, they'd had enough! If you don't have a car, there is not a lot to do if the weather isn't great. There is a nice walk to the nearby Lido's but the path ends and I didn't fancy walking on the busy road. The town is small with lots of fish restaurants. Only 2 bars (unlike other places in Italy, the restaurants don't let you just have a drink which was odd when they weren't busy...). Everything closes for siesta. We did discover you can but a bottle of wine at the minimarket and they will give you glasses and an ice bucket and you sit outside. Great idea to watch the world go buy and mingle with the locals. We found the food and drink in the town to be good value for money. if you get bored of eating fish, you must try the Braceria in town. You pick your meat and they show you to a table. Food was lovely and soooo cheap. even a litre of wine for 8 euros, and it tasted good! We went twice during a 6 night stay.
