“Lovely hotel, car necessary”

Paestum does not have taxi service, and the hotel is located more than a mile from the station and the ruins. A lovely place to stay if you arrive by car---the pool is a delight, the restaurant quite good. The beach is a brief walk from the front of the hotel---passably nice, padded chairs with umbrellas are pleasant. A little glitzy for such a sleepy town but very comfortable and well maintained.

“Beautiful hotel and excellent restaurant”

The hotel has a very nice interior and exterior with beautiful grounds and swimming pool. The restaurant has excellent local food. It is walking distance to a nice sandy beach.

“Lovely Hotel”

Beautiful top class hotel, great pool & grounds but very quiet. It has huge public areas and only 42 rooms so it sometimes seems quite empty & lacking a bit of atmosphere. The staff were friendly & efficient, very well run. Lots of big weddings use the hotel (5 in the week we were there) but they never impinge on the holiday guests, except to make you feel a bit scruffy on your way back fom the pool when they are all evening dress! Restaurant was expensive, not much else in walking distance so a car was essential. Roads are very variable in quality, satnav was both a life saver and a disaster! Good for families with young kids, hotel also has a nice beach nearby. No good for singles.
