La Gioconda Boutique Hotel

Was a little tricky to find but very nice small hotel with excellent service throughout. Restaurant is open late with a good menu and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Free breakfast was good with a lot of selection. Everyone had pretty good English speaking skills as well. Room was pretty big, clean and comfortable. Would stay again.

The room provided was at the back of the property overlooking the parking lot, however, it was a nice room overall. Only a few things that were not great. I found a broken piece of the chandelier under the bottom sheet of the bed, not sure how that got there but it was not a good thing. Bed was comfortable but two small comforters not one large one which would have been better. Two bottles of water for a 4 night stay were never replaced. Since the tap water in Odessa is not drinkable it required drinking the water in the mini bar. The safe in the room is not big enough for a computer. Our room was above some part of the service area of the hotel that had a swinging door. This could be heard from early morning till late night. Not very romantic. Having said all that, I will say that the grounds are nicely kept, room is reasonably comfortable, and the service is very good. Nearly all the staff speaks english very well and those that don't are actually apologetic about it. I would say that the breakfast was good, however our dinner was not the best. Wine was good cheese plate very nice but the main courses were not as good as I would have expected. Service was excellent.

The level of service provided by this hotel is unrivaled!

fantastic. professional staff. unique place and v fine food. I felt that I am served at home.

The hotel shuttle was waiting for me at the hotel when I arrived. The staff spoke English carried my bags up four flights of stairs as there is no lift. Room was great food was wonderful and atmosphere awesome. Sea views from my room and lounge area. I had an early flight out they had a taxi waiting for me. I would recommend this hotel without hesitation to anyone looking for a romantic getaway by the sea.

I had a lovely stay at La Gioncanda. The staff is friendly and helpful and the facilities are very nice and comfortable. Not 5 stars if you're comparing it to a Four Seasons, but a 5 for TripAdvisor or a solid 4 by western European standards. The hotel and grounds are really beautiful with a terrific view of the sea. Getting to the beach requires a 10 minute walk down many stairs, and of course a walk back up to get back to the hotel, but it's not hard to do. When I researched this hotel on TripAdvisor, it said the Executive room has a sea view and balcony. Sadly, this is not true. It does have a sea view, but no balcony. There are only 3 or 4 rooms with balconies and none of them are Executive rooms.

Was staying for a break for several nights at the hotel. Admittedly I visited off the main summer season so the hotel was quiet but the staff were very friendly and helped with things such as getting a taxi in to the town centre (about 10 minutes drive). My room was excellent and very comfortable. Food was good and reasonably prompt. Overall a very nice hotel and recommended.

Wonderfully helpful and friendly staff; highly recommended!

JUST PERFECT! THE HOTEL WAS VERY LUXURY. GREAT SERVICE, GREAT DESIGN, VERY GOOD LOCATION
