Our visit to Sardinia was very pleasant and the welcoming atmosphere of the hotel was nice Adeel was at the reception desk and the way he greeted us and shared the information was very pleasant and friendly After a long drive from Olbia airport to Palau our accommodation was quite lovely as we were able to check in fast and easy fashion The room was very clean and comfortable with amazing views overlooking the beach and the port of Palau The convenient location was a great spot for walking to the city center for shopping and dining. Also to enjoy the free beaches and to get to the ferry and enjoy the activities!!!!

Avoid disappointment stay elsewhere

This was a disappointing stay. Reception staff were unfriendly, did not help with luggage. Worse still the main reception person was smoking a shisha pipe in the common areas and in another occasion was picking the skin off his feet in the customer area . Ash trays were left with cigarette butts. There is no lift and the stairs to the next floor are dangerous, there’s no hand rail except for the last few steps. The stair asr made of recycled timber and have a number of holes in them. The beds were hard and very uncomfortable. The hotel is up quite a steep hill and a distance from the main part of town it would be difficult without a car . I cannot understand how this is rated as 4 star I don’t know how hotels.com is aligned with this property

Perfeito para conhecer Palau e Ilha Madalena

Hotel bem conservado, limpo, silencioso, com estacionamento fácil na região gratuito e uma equipe muito atenciosa e simpática. Duas observações: 1) o banheiro tinha vidro liso na janela para a rua, que não dava privacidade, mas foi substituído no primeiro dia por texturizado que ficou perfeito, reestabelendo a privacidade.2) a informação do valor do café da manhã está desatualizada, são 15 euros por dia, por pessoa e não 5 euros como consta do site e descrição na plataforma Hotéis.
