Controne Chalets

"Idyllic hotel, perfect for visiting attractions in the area. Hotel Olimpico is a charmingly beautiful place. From the grand entrance area, with the fountains and tastefully lit trees, we knew it was going to be a lovely stay. When we reached our room, we knew it would be phenomenal. The rooms were immaculately presented, spacious and with a lovely balcony with a great view, cleaned perfectly every day with everything you could need and more. Breakfast was a great selection of Italian and continental delights, all of a high quality and included a great selection of fresh fruit, juices and a pancake station. We ate in the restaurant one night where food was delightfully served in beautiful surroundings and of a great standard. There’s a lovely, clean pool, lots of children’s play activities to the rear of the hotel (so not in the way if you don’t have children), which were well received by our boys. The best feature of the hotel, however, was the staff, who were so helpful and friendly before and throughout our stay, particularly the wonderful Chiara who gave us so much important information before we arrived. Would definitely return to this hotel and would absolutely recommend to others. "

"We did not have breakfast as it was not included(but was a very good price) and we wanted to get down the road to the Bufalo Mozzarella farm. Staff was excellent. Parking was easy. This was the best bed and pillows...much needed for a long day of traveling from the US."

"Quaint boutique hotel just minutes from the Greek ruins. Hotel lobby is beautiful as are the expansive grounds. Our room was very small, but that is our fault for not verifying the room size when we booked it. Wifi bandwidth was limited but we were able to stream/FaceTime with periodic disruption. (The hotel did also have some internet issues when we checked-in.) Very good restaurant on site - Michele the maitre’d/ sommelier was very friendly and gave us some wonderful recommendations for wine options. He proudly showed us his wine cellar and various wines that he stocks from the region. Really enjoyed our stay."

"The Hotel is a short walk from the spectacular Archaeology Museum and Excavations, and is set back from the road. Absolutely quiet, with comfortable lounge seating and pool, in a family environment. Very welcoming. "

"The hotel looks lovely from the moment you approach. We managed to walk from the train station (Capaccio Rabadiccio) to the hotel. The room was a good size, with a nice closet, safe and drawers. It had a nice balcony with chairs. The free breakfast was so great! The Buffalo Mozzarella and tomatoes with real flavour"

"Close to the beach (15 min walk), but what we appreciated the most were that they had bicycles to use. The condition of the bikes was just okay, so you have to be a bit picky, but they were great for getting around since there seemed to be no local bus service in the area. It took about 20 min to ride to the archeological park and just a few min to get to the beach where there is a long promenade along the beach. The front desk was very helpful and pleasant."

"Easy check-in and easy free parking "

"room was clean, bed comfortable and balcony had nice views of the mountains. Pool and jacuzzi were excellent. food and service in restaurant was super. couldn't fault this hotel. "

"Lovely hotel. We stayed with breakfast included. Found the menu for evening meals was a bit limited. So thoroughly recommended the family restaurant opposite. Bar staff were lovely and staff on breakfast duties were also very attentive. "
