Reviews and Ratings
My stay at Mezzatorre was mixed. While the location and views were absolutely stunning, my initial experience was marred by a late room availability and some housekeeping issues. Despite these drawbacks, the dining options and spa were highlights of my visit, and the staff was attentive throughout my stay.
This hotel offers a truly remarkable experience with exceptional service, stunning sea views, and beautiful amenities. The accommodations were spacious and comfortable, but the dining options could be expanded for a better variety. The location is breathtaking and serene, making it a perfect retreat, although some areas could benefit from upgrades. Overall, it’s a fantastic getaway with a few minor areas for improvement.
Staying at this hotel had its ups and downs. The location is absolutely stunning, nestled on what was once a volcano with beautiful landscapes all around. The service was remarkable, with attentive staff making me feel special. However, the room I stayed in was on the smaller side and could have used some renovations. Dining options were varied and quite delightful, particularly enjoying the fresh seafood. Despite these little issues, I'd say it's a treasure worth visiting again.
I had a real mixed bag during my stay at the hotel. On the plus side, the stunning sea views and the beautiful grounds really made the experience feel special. However, I faced some challenges with the room location being too remote and the dining service at the restaurant was rather slow, which took away from the overall enjoyment. The food was decent, but not exceptional, especially given the hotel's higher price point.
Staying at this hotel felt like a hidden gem; the views were breathtaking and the service was exceptional. I loved the tranquil atmosphere and the beautifully maintained grounds, but I was a bit let down by the size of the rooms, which could definitely use a refresh. The dining options were fantastic, with a variety of delicious meals, making it a worthwhile culinary experience.
The hotel offers stunning sea views and beautiful grounds, making it a perfect place to unwind. The accommodations are luxurious but also a bit small, and while the service is generally exceptional, the communication issues around ferry schedules left room for improvement. The dining options are mostly delightful, although the evening meal choices can be limited, alongside additional costs for drinks during dinner.
This hotel offers a stunning experience with exceptional service and beautiful surroundings. The thermal baths and pool area were particularly enjoyable, making for a relaxing stay. While the gym facilities could use some improvement, everything else was fantastic, including the gourmet food and breathtaking sea views.
This hotel truly feels like a private paradise with breathtaking views and top-notch relaxation options. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, complemented by exceptional service from dedicated staff like Salvatore. However, some amenities like dining variety fell a bit short, and the room description was misleading as it didn’t match the scenic experience expected.
