Hotel Villa Carolina

A nice modern hotel in a great location. Although I prefer the charm of an older hotel that is more traditional and where you get that Italian feel of this lovely island. But this is only my personal taste. There is a great terrasse on the roof of the hotel with a small pool. From there you have a fantasic view along tge coast and the harbour. There is also a courtyard up on the 2nd floor with a nice view onto an old building. When we arrived we were told that we got an upgrade, free of charge, to the junior suite. How nice, we thought. My husband and I found out why we received such a "generous" upgrade shortly afterwards: the hotel was full with 70 Italian students, around 15 years old! They were so loud that it was impossible to sleep (despite earplugs), the walls even vibrated from them pounding on the floors and walls. I could not believe that the staff at reception did not do anything about it and complained to those kids to be be quiet!!! Having had a 6.15am flight and a lack of sleep this was simply awful. The airconditioning did not work either, could hardly breath. The window was shut at night as next to our lovely looking suite with balcony was a night club, open til 3am! Next day the kids left and I hoped for a good night sleep as I felt shattered. I was wrong. That disco next door was so loud that our room vibrated. At ca 11pm I went to the receptionist who said she would talk to the night club. The receptionist rang us and said that it was a special night and they would keep playing that loud, if we would like to change rooms. We did. Then another receptionist, the dark haired man who gave us so "generously" that suite, said cheekyly to me: but you will not have the same good sea view. I could not care less. I wanted to sleep! The room was awful. Like a prison. My husband got furious and spoke to the manager in the morning who apologised and gave us another room with seaview and roadview for the 3rd and last night. The airconditioning worked. I was glad to leave to another hotel in Ischia. The breakfast was not bad. My husband's cappuccino was delicious, my americano was instant coffee. A shame as you expect good coffee in Italy. I had it later in the day in one of the many coffee shops.

The staff is very friendly and exceedingly helpful. The location is perfect and the closeness to restaurants and shopping a plus.

Будучи участником проходящей тут регаты, могу сказать, что для этих целей отель подходит идеально. Тем, кто любит поспокойнее и потише, лучше выбирать отели чуть подальше от порта. В целом, отель довольно милый - обстановка и интерьеры вполне приятные, питание, обслуживание на уровне. Рекомендую!

The hotel is located in a prime location in Forio. It is surrounded by many restaurants overlooking the harbour and is also just across the road to where the hydrofoil departs and arrives. The rooms are a tad small, but are clean with new furniture. The beds are excellent. There are TVs in the room but with only one English news channel. The breakfasts are better than most hotels in Italy. There is a lovely roof terrace, which has a small swimming pool, which is rather cold. It is more a plunge pool than a swimming pool. There is no restaurant or cafe on the terrace, but there is a heated pool on a lower floor. Overall, would highly recommend this hotel.

Beautiful building on the harbor of Forio, the hotel is very well located with stunning sea views. The plunge pool on the roof is tiny but the terrace around is very nice. The rooms are comfortable but basic and very impersonal. WiFi is only available on the lobby and in the restaurant and breakfast room. The staff doesn't care but gets the job done. Once more, it's disappointing because it could be such a nice place!

A pleasant hotel with lovely views across the harbour. A small public beach opposite the hotel was handy to use for an hour or so. Bigger public and paying beaches( with beds and umbrellas) a short 10 minutes walk away. Right next to a good selection of bars and restaurants and easy walk into the main town. A small splash pool and sunbeds on the roof of the hotel gave stunning views of the town and beaches.Regular buses nearby to all attractions on the island. Beautiful sunsets each evening.

Albergo di fronte al porto,a due passi dal centro.Si trova vicino la spiaggia;ci si può spostare facilmente xché vicino ci sono fermate bus.

Hotel,personale,Posto,mare,cibo e ospitalità più che stupendi ..... da tornare sicuramente....adatto anche per famiglie con bambini....soggiorno indimenticabile.

Nice, clean hotel but wouldn't say it was 4 star. Probably more like a 3 star. There was no wifi in the bedrooms, tv channels were limited and checkout was 10am!! Still a decent place, just managing expectations. That said, the staff are nice, it is air conditioned and the roof top pool is nice overlooking the sea.

Very pleasant hotel conveniently situated for the hydrofoil, restaurants and beach.
