Hotel Il Gabbiano

“Don’t go there for a Holiday unless your planning a wedding there.”

My husband and I have had many holidays in Italy this is the first time I feel compelled to write a review as bad as the experience in this hotel. We stayed a week in this place.

My husband and I have had many holidays in Italy this is the first time I feel compelled to write a review as bad as the experience in this hotel. We stayed a week in this place. This is a venue for weddings, if your there for a holiday don’t go your in their way! The staff are unhelpful and miserable. I asked if there were any buses near by and was told ‘No’ we went for a walk and there was a bus stop at the end of the road. The restaurant is closed if there’s a big wedding going on, so if you have no transport you would need to pay €35 there and back if you want to eat in the evening. I would say it’s a rather limited menu choice in the restaurant. The hotel pictures show a swimming pool, but it’s where the weddings are held so you can’t go there. In fact they don’t want you anywhere near the guests if there’s a wedding going. On arrival/departure there is no help offered to get your bags up/down 3 flights of stairs. The final insult was from the receptionist when we left. We paid our bill, she did not say thank you, hope you had a good stay or even say goodbye. I’m so angry. The only saving grace was the breakfast waiter and the driver of the shuttle bus Salvatore. You need that shuttle bus to get to the beach and back but only during the day, evening. A stunning location and a beautiful hotel but we were glad to leave.

“Event-Hotel for celebrations - but not for recreation.”

For business purposes I spent nearly two weeks in Hotel Il Gabbiano. Location is somehow isolated on top of a hill. Going downtown to restaurants and shopping along narrow roads, rarely illuminated with no pedestrian walk is dangerous. Hotel shuttle to local train station provided from 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM, but not in the evening for dinner when Italian restaurants usually not open before 7:30 PM. I was aware that this hotel provides room for all kinds of celebrations: weddings, graduations, birthdays, but consequence were significant: loud music at least every other day made it nearly impossible to get to sleep before midnight. Rooms are okay, bathrooms might need a renovation in the short term and new hair dryers. Internet satisfying. Minibar and water boiler with tea selection in the room. Room cleaning could be better. Very friendly and helpful staff at the reception. Basic continental breakfast - in general okay but: No changes throughout the stay. Seems to be a good location for celebrations, but would chose a different accommodation for holidays.
