Park Hotel Bellavista

Well appointed just below town square and quiet.

Very friendly staff, we hired a suite... to our surprise the shower had spa features with an excellent variety of massage jets.Family run very genuineThe lady cook prepared genuine and excellent food all alongAndrea was very helpful and entertaining with us and all guests. He was also our forest trail guide each morning.

NEGATIVE ONLY ABOUT SKIIING:The ski chair lifts/buttons are not operational... not the hotel fault at all. The Gambarie council and government must do something about this asap. It's a shame!

The hotel is lovely, beautifully located to explore Gambarie and its surroundings. Rosalba is fantastic, extremely helpful and gentle. Rosalba's dishes were so good! We had a great delicious dinner and a plentiful tasty breakfast. The hotel's swimming pool is very large, internal and very clean. The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. We liked everything!

Nothing!

Nice, comfortable hotel. Excellent breakfast.

WiFi didn't work in the room.

Most comfortable bed of our two-week holiday in Calabria and a very spacious room. We enjoyed a nice breakfast.

The hotel is a bit dated, and we would have preferred something right in the heart of town.

The hotel was spotlessly clean throughout and the staff made us feel very welcome, including a lovely log fire in the open hearth which was fully lit morning, noon and night!. Our room was big, clean, warm and comfortable. The food was excellent, with big portions of typical, local specialities, including some excellent pasta dishes. Breakfast was also hearty, with fresh squeezed orange juice, pastries, fruit and fresh brewed coffee. The walking trails were superb, which was our main reason for visiting.

Through nobody's fault, the village was extremely quiet and felt very much 'out of season' so nothing was open, meaning we couldn't go out for a drink or to a different restaurant, which made it feel like we weren't on holiday at all. Really not the hotel's fault though.

Gambarie is a small town in Parco Nazionale dell’Aspromonte. The hotel is a 5 minute walk, from the centre of town,set in a peaceful location.The staff are customer driven, willing to create a ‘Calabrian’ experience, friendly yet remain professional.The buffet style breakfast has many options. Dinner is recommended for local choices - delicious.The service was excellent, very clean rooms ( great showers). and common areas. The big swimming pool a bonus!

Only comment is, best to have a vehicle to make the most of the area ( we were using public transport).

The hotel is in a quiet, beautiful area surrounded by amazingly peaceful walks surrounded by large trees and forests not far away for a lovely hike. The hotel itself is extremely clean and has a beautiful garden and huge indoor swimming pool which you can use to your leisure. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The breakfast and dinner options are very vast and delicious.Our room was very large and had a beautiful balcony facing the pool and garden. The bathroom was also large and equipped with a great shower.We truly didn't want to leave. We will surely be back.

There was nothing we didn't like. We loved every minute of our stay.

The location was fine, in central gambarie. Gambarie itself was completely quiet. The room was big and clean. The shower was excellent.

The hotel is old and tired, it is in dire need of a refurbishment. So many areas have been abandoned, there are random piles of "things" everywhere, it's definitely no prepared to have guests in it. The No fresh food at breakfast, they put us in a room above the dining room so we heard chairs scraping late into the evening until the restaurant closed. The restaurant food was surprisingly good, although you can't really order from the menu. They come up to the table and tell you what they can cook that day, and you say yes or no!

Lovely hotel. Very friendly host. Excellent home cooked evening meal. Nice garden with a great view across the straits to Sicily and Stromboli. Very quiet when we were there in Oct.

WiFi was patchy to non-existent.
