“We will return”

I spent a week in Ishcia with my wife at the Mare Blu, B/B, the The good points, staff excellent nothing was too much trouble, the Gala Dinner was very good value and is to be recommended,the sun terraces, swimming pool and the terme pool,mud wrap and massage were superb, buffet breakfast was good, although the room was nice with a sea view it was on the small side. I would be very pleased to visit the "Mare Blu" again

“Great pool and access to Mediterranean Sea beach was great.”

Hotel was very clean and staff was friendly.

“Highly recommended”

The only problem we had was the sound of running water from the air conditioning vent in the room which seemed to be when other guests used their shower etc. This was only a minor annoyance however and did not detract from the overall excellence. The staff were all courteous and very helpful and the facilities were perfect. Although we did not try any of the treatments offered, the pool and thermal pool were nice and the terrace was perfect to sit and catch some sun. Our room had a lovely view of the coast and the castle. The hotel is placed between the main shopping street and the castle and both are a leisurely walk away which was ideal.

“Good place to stay in Ischia”

Hotel is very good and cost effective on Ischia - walking distance to the town center and the castle !! Also directly across the road is the beach - and cost is included in the price of accommodation. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again

“disappointing”

First I was surprised to find myself in a 5* hotel rather than in the 4* I had booked – only to get pretty disappointed when I saw the room. I probably shouldn’t have been that disappointed: as a single traveller (who had already paid for her stay) I was put in a tiny single room. In principle that was o.k., but really shocking was to find that room dirty: the desk and other pieces of furniture were covered with dust and had stains from former occupants’ glasses. A similar situation in the bathroom: not only layers of black dust, but also the hair of a former user next to the sink. I complained several times, received apologies and found that after three attempts exactly those areas whose dirtiness I indicated to the manager were cleaned. Apart from this extremely below 5* standard staff was friendly and helpful, the service was very good and the breakfast excellent. Bar prices were too high, though.
