Amazing place along a beautiful Italian coast, friendly welcomers and good services.Access to a perfect beach just across the streets.Lovely place near to Vieste to visit the village.
Nothing !
Great location to a lovely private beach. About a 20min, pleasant walk, along the sea front to Vieste. Breakfast was good - continental with egg & bacon option. Room was very clean and a good size, beds were ok. Staff at hotel were really friendly and helpful. Lovely pool. Very quiet at this time of year. Excellent value for money.
Beds were a bit small.
This large "village" for tourists has a beautiful garden.
The price for the meals which were not very brilliant! It is not a 4 stars hotel...They had to change my room due to electrical problem. In the second room there was a fault on the WC repaired rapidly. No reduction of price for the disturbance. The beach was empty.I think I came at the wrong time of the year!!!
The staff was friendly and good location
For this price we expect more for the room. The bathroom wasn't clean well, and all night, we couldn't sleep because of the barking dogs.
Great outdoor facilities. Good range for breakfast.
Beds and pillows uncomfortable. Very dated rooms. No water in rooms.
Great location. The private beach is great and the beach bar is very good too. The staff are very friendly
The room was very tired and needed updating. Very small shower.
Garden Hotel Ripa Was advertised as 4 star. This was not our experience. The grounds, lobby, bar, pool aesthetic and beach lived up to the rating. The rooms were substandard.
The beds were hard and the pillows were like bricks. The TV was so small, it was hard to see from the bed. Overall, the room was sad. Had the rating no been advertised as 4 star, we would not have been so critical. Our friends room next door had ants.
The service was outstanding. The restaurant on site. The private beach with complimentary towels, lounge chairs and umbrella. We were very comfortable. Close to city center. Secure parking on site.
Nothing that we didn't like.
The room was big and the pool was good
Long way from old town. Ants in room
Breakfast was fine, a reasonable selection. Location was excellent, close to the beach and restaurants.
Did not like that our room only allowed us to sit at the VERY back of the beach. From there our view consisted of a sea of umbrellas, a few dozen of which were empty all day. Poor beach experience.
Out of the town of Vieste so not exposed to the noise of Vieste. Amazing restaurant In the hills.
Pool was poor - photos suggested much better pool
the personal is very polite, o forget there my charger, very kind they sent it free of charge to my Adress.
Well kept and functional resort on the beach. Nice breakfast, kind friendly staff. Rooms were clean and well equipped, very good price.
Nothing to complaint.
not a 4 star hotel!!!
The room looked like it hadn’t been renovated since the 70s. Breakfast room looked like a cheap wedding venue. You are assigned a table that you have to sit at for the rest of your stay, so even if the weather is great you can’t have breakfast outside if you feel like it. There is a camper van camp right next to the hotel, that plays VERY LOUD music from 10pm to about 1 am. So if you want to get a good sleep on your holiday this hotel is not the right one. Let alone the very uncomfortable bed! I would never recommend this place to a friend!!!
Location and pricing are quite good. The beach is just across the street and two chairs and an umbrella are included in the price. The pool area is quite nice as well. Reception-staff was friendly, but that's about it.
The service - especially at breakfast - is VERY rude and unfriendly!!!! U really get the feeling as if you would bother them with your presence allone, not to speak of any requests. The rooms seem like they have not been renovated since the 90ies. Definitely no 4 star place IMO, maybe 2 or max 3 star place. Quite ok for the price though, especially compared to other places in this area… still we will not stay there again..
We enjoyed the breakfast.
Very good breakfast. Very nice location, in front of the sea.
