Castiglione Messer Raimondo Vacations from $324

spacious clean room with reception available into the evening to aid later time check in

Facilities were adequate - nice pool area but blaring music and loud speaker noise along with trucks and traffic noise made it less than ideal

No coffee pot or hot water kettle, and no microwave. I was led to believe that the property was on the beach. I had a beach view, but it wasn't on the beach. There were two streets that separated me from the beach. They advertised a parking garage, but it was full, so I had to pay 2 Euros an hour to park on the street. I later moved the car to a free spot a couple blocks away. The neighborhood dumpsters were right under my window, and everyone kept dumping their bottles at all hours of the night. But it building was relatively clean, and the breakfast was decent. It even had eggs and bacon for the Americans.

The front desk experience was not good. It seems the gentleman at the front desk put my 85 year old mother on a different floor than us. When I ask if we could be on the same floor he told me “we would have had to book the rooms together “. Well I had 1 reservation # so… it that not being booked together??? This gentleman just didn’t not care and was extremely unfriendly. Otherwise the hotel was okay.

Staff friendly, well maintained hotel, excellent breakfast. Situated very close to the centre of Pescara which has plenty of cafes and restaurants available.
