This hotel is all about the view. Perched atop a cliff with a good clear view of the Med whilst sat on the terrace and the best bit is due to location (yes a little out of the way, 25-30 euro's in a taxi from Forio or St Angelo, verbal prices quoted and paid as meter price one day was 42 euros) the peace and quiet is amazing. There are other properties up on the next hill and occasional dogs barking, but most of the time it's very quiet. Walking to this property from Panza bus stop is not what we tried (the road is twisty and at times no more than a track but very hilly) especially in the current temperatures. Vito or Johnny are more than willing to drop you off to Panza, Poseidon or the main bus stop at various times throughout the day and also collect from there up to a certain time, very helpful and very very appreciated. The staff are very helpful and I can't give them enough credit for all they do to help you enjoy the stay. The hotel is starting to appear dated in some areas but nothing we found affected our stay. I found the bed a little firm, however all hotels seem to have differing ideas on what type of mattress used so no biggy there. There was no fridge in our room which was missed and I would hope they install them as an upgrade especially with the heat they seem to be getting more regularly, really missed being able to have a cold refreshing drink in the middle of the night. The breakfasts are a simple affair and I enjoyed the pastries and coffee. At the moment the greenery has grown to block the view from the breakfast area, which is a shame as it is a good selling point when eating breakfast to look out to a lovely blue sea. The pool although not very large is certainly adequate to cool off in should you have a lazy day at the hotel. However, having done this for two days we realised that it can be a very long day if you have not already stocked up with some food or drink to keep you going throughout the day. This hotel at time of our stay only did breakfasts and a paid aperitif around 18:30hrs if you asked on the terrace. We had a few of those and they were very well priced (beer, prosecco, crisps, dough twists olives and cut meats and cheese). Vito conjured up a bottle of wine, beers or prosecco whenever asked, much appreciated on a hot day. The hotel can arrange deliveries of meals from takeaway places to. We had a pizza delivery one night and it was very good. I was jealous of the wifes fritatina (apologies if spelt wrong), looked very good and must have tasted good as she didn't share. Big question is did it live up to expectations? I would have to say yes it did. Vito, Johnny and the rest of the staff are very customer friendly and have a lot of island knowledge to help you decide where to go or where to eat. We had some cracking meals based on their recommendations and the Portebello in Ischia Porto is also owned by the hotel owner and gives a good discount, helped by serving very nice food with a good marina view.
