Dolce Stella - MELISSA

We spent 2 weeks in this hotel where we enjoyed wonderful weather, wonderful local calabrian food and wine and a very hospitable crew. The manager of the hotel is an experienced man and he coaches his crew in an extraordinary way. They are all eager to please the client. My breakfast cappucino was the best ever! Also the restaurant is of exquisite quality. All the food is freshly prepared and of local simplicity. But the taste is heavenly. Half- or full board is recommended, just because of the ingenuity of the cooks with their fresh products (in summer mainly see food dishes and fresh pastas). The rooms are simple and of ample dimensions. Cleaning is daily and very thorough. The current manager has his first year (2011) as managing director of this hotel, but all of his actions show he is a well experienced man. Anyway, don't let first impressions take you down. We (as a lot of guests allready do) will return to this hotel. Even if it was only to taste the food and the wines of the Ciró.

Premise: I travel to Europe and Italy every week for work, treatment like this never seen anywhere in the world. I took a cold shower for two days in a row even though I notified the reception the first time. At the second cold shower I go to talk about it again and I am treated very badly, instead of receiving an apology I had to argue with an arrogant person, I was forced to cancel the booking because instead of helping me they kicked me out . To add insult to injury. Not to mention the broken toilet paper holder in the bathroom, the broken bathroom light with exposed electrical cables, the noisy air conditioning when turned off, the curtains letting light through and therefore useless and a hole in the ceiling. Breakfast with zero choice, either an empty croissant or a croissant packed with industrial jams. Restaurant: don 't choose the fish it 's tasteless, the rest is decent. It 's a shame because the structure has nice rooms, but with unspeakable staff.

Hotel by the sea, breathtaking view with terrace for lunch. We chose a Deluxe room, large and well furnished, a few details to review. The only flaw is the lack of privacy with the guests in the room next door (low planters exist, but with nothing inside). Services rendered by the staff are of a high standard, with particular attention to Mr Raffaele, an icon of this place. Value for money, very high. We hope that Mr. Nicola will be able to maintain the quality of services and prices over time.

A beautiful place, very kind staff, delicious cuisine. I mean, I didn't want to go home. a man who after four days has homesickness.
