Disappointing

Posted 10 Oct 2019 on Hotels
Room and views fantastic. Location terrible.....half hour climb to the boring town with two restaurants and 2.5 hrs hairy drive from the airport. Main buildings in need of TLC Staff miserable. Food average

GOOD SHORT STAY

Posted 22 May 2016
Pros: LOCATION, GREAT SIZE ROOMS AND BATHROOM A GREAT INFINITY POOL
Location: LOCATED HALF WAY UP A MOUNTAIN SIDE FACING THE SEA WITH FABULOUS VIEWS OF SEA AND COASTLINE. SITED ON EDGE "GIOIOSA MAREA" WHICH IS A BEAUTIFUL TOWN
VERY NICE LOOKING HOTEL BUT REALLY A 5 STAR, MORE OF 3/4 STAR ROOMS AND DOUBLE BED A GOOD SIZE, WELL EQUIPPED, VERY CLEAN AND NICE SMALL TERRACE FACING SEA. OUTSIDE TERRACE WAS NOT LAID OUT OR PREPARED FOR SITTING IN MIDDAY SUN WE ONLY WENT BB, BREAKFAST WAS POOR, NOT A HUGE CHOICE, FRUIT WAS NOT FRESH, WHICH IS SHAME OF WHERE IT IS!!COFFEE WAS SERVED FROM A SELF-SERVICE DISPENSER AND NOT SERVED FRESH! - NOT IS EXPECTED FROM A 5 STAR REATED HOTEL

Heavenly

Posted 29 May 2015
Pros: Location, views and staff. Main bar did fab cocktails.
Cons: Not all of the facilities were open e.g terrace and pool bar.
Location: Gioiosa is a good base to see other areas of Sicily
We booked this hotel as we needed to stay in Gioiosa to attend a Holy Communion and was near to where our friends lived. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, even arranging transport for us to get to the church on the Sunday. Our room was a great size and very clean and the balcony sea view, perfecto. The best thing had to be the infinity pool area, which had stunning views. We can't wait to go back.
