"Amazing and Memorable experience 😊"

10.0

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The property is absolutely beautiful and has been tastefully renovated while preserving its fascinating history. As a boutique hotel, it was exactly my kind of place. The architecture is stunning, and the interior design is simply smashing – I loved every detail. The staff were excellent and made the experience even more enjoyable. The location couldn’t have been better, being just steps away from the harbour and surrounded by plenty of fantastic places to eat. I genuinely have no complaints and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful and memorable place to stay.

The only issue during my stay was with the Wi-Fi, but this was due to a problem with the internet service provider rather than the hotel itself, and it was beyond their control.

"Perfect stay with excellent all round experience"

10.0

The location was spot on within a 30sec walk to the main port and harbour. Excellent location for bars and restaurants yet quiet enough not to be disturb of an evening. Overall a great stay for me and my family and we would definitely recommend to others and look at coming back ourselves.

Honestly for what we was expecting nothing could have been better

"Not recommended."

3.0

Nicely restored.

Well, where does one begin. Booking.com reviews - all undated, all positive - raved of great experience, high speed internet, great staff, wonderful views and great breakfasts. Our experience was overall negative - no staff, no breakfasts, no internet, and “no elevator” meant lugging our cases up 2+ flights circular stairway. Exhausting. Would not recommend Contessa “Boutique” Hotel.
