- Paul (10/5): Excellent all round cannot find fault - Fantastic location, very relaxed vibe,lovely owners and staff. Great food
- Vincent (9/5): Un hôtel familial très agréable et confortable avec un service de palace - Le service remarquable, le personnel très agréable, le jardin superbe, les deux piscines parfaites, la cuisine, la literie Rien, à par peut etre la vue mer décevante
- Ingo (8/5): -
- Cindy (10/5): - What an "Ideal" experience. Upon completion of our booking, Paola and Dario began a series of communication offering up their services, transfers, Etc. The breakfast was great, overlooking a beautiful garden terrace. There were two pools , one a hot springs pool. The location was ideal. Always available and helpful the hosts were committed to making our stay memorable.
- Shannon (10/5): -
- Karla (10/5): Sempre è bello tornare - Tutto Niente
- Serieys (9/5): Une belle adresse - L'accueil ultra chaleureux on se sent bien dans cet hôtel la plage juste en bas de la rue le beau jardin avec une piscine qui donne sur les montagnes
Tout près de Forio qui est vraiment un coup de coeur
- Ana Maria (8/5): -
- gennaro (10/5): -
- Benedicte (7/5): -
- Renaud (10/5): - La gentillesse du personnel et de la patronne. Un service nickel, le calme et la beauté du jardin super bien entretenu par Ibrahim. Rien
- Ioana (10/5): -
- Smail (10/5): -
- Cameron (10/5): Absolutely fantastic, 10/10! - We loved our stay at Paola and Dario’s, it was excellent. The staff including the couple mentioned are always accommodating and very helpful.
It was a beaifutil space, the gardens and pool is so relaxing. Not too far to walk down to town, a few different ways but the bus stop is close by too, and will get you almost anywhere on the island.
When we come back to Ischia, we will definitely stay here again.
- Hannah (10/5): - Amazing hotel. Beautiful and family run with a lovely garden and pool
- Elisabeth (9/5): Un séjour parfait en tout point - Une adresse où il faut aller ! Ce petit hôtel familiale est un havre de paix, le jardin d’oliviers, magnifique vous invite dès votre arrivée à vous détendre! L’accueil de Paola est chaleureux, dès notre arrivée elle nous a personnellement fait visiter les lieux et nous a donné des conseils sur les activités à faire. Chaque matin une petite attention personnelle nous ai donné, digne des grands hôtels. Le personnel est charmant et au petit soin. Petit déjeuner copieux servir sur une grande terrasse. Les dîners sont riches d’une cuisine copieuse et généreuse, avec un buffet des entrées qui reprend toute les spécialités italiennes je vous recommande !
Cette adresse est vraiment la destination à choisir pour se reposer ou la piscine idéalement placée vous offre mer et montagne en simultané! La salle de bain est un peu petite nous étions 4 mais c’est un détail face a la beauté des lieux
- Ralph (10/5): Ein sehr entspannter Aufenthalt in einem tollen Hotel mit erstklassigen Service! - Wunderschönes familiär geführtes Hotel. Es verfügt über eine überschaubare Zahl von Zimmern und somit Gästen, was uns sehr gut gefallen hat. Wir hatten einen schönen Meerblick, der schattenspendende Garten ist mit ist Olivenbäumen und Palmen bepflanzt. Der Pool selbst schön gelegen, umrandet von hellen Steinplatten. Außen herum Liegen, ein paar Tische mit Stühlen im mediterranen Stil. Einfach, aber Ideal! Die Frühstücksterrasse ebenfalls herrlich, der Weg von dort führt direkt zum Garten und Pool. Wir haben oft auch im Hotel zu Mittag gegessen. Die Speisekarte lässt fast nichts vermissen, und es schmeckte vorzüglich. Die Rezeption und die Bar waren durchgängig besetzt, Getränke aller Art waren immer verfügbar und konnten auf der Terrasse, im Garten oder im Zimmer getrunken werden. Es ist alles absolut unkompliziert, so bestehen z.B. keine Poolöffnungszeiten. Der nächste Strand (Sand, keine Badeschuhe) ist nahe gelegen und schnell erreichbar. Er ist frei zugänglich und nicht mit Sonnenschirmen zugepflastert. Das Personal und der Service waren top! Ein großes Lob an das ganze Team und an die Chefin Paola! Danke, für die sehr schönen Tage auf Ischia! Nichts!
- Tara (10/5): Would def go back - Wonderful little hotel with a personal touch. Paola and Dario are fabulous. The property had a lovely pool and a thermal pool as well to spend a lazy morning or two in.
- Kathrin (10/5): Herzliche, ruhig gelegene Unterkunft, nur 20min zu Fuss von der Innenstadt, Top-Gastgeberin Paola - Ein sehr herzlich von Paola geführtes Familienhotel. Sie begrüsst alle Gäste am Morgen, gibt Tipps für Ausflüge und Essenslocations und hilft tatkräftig mit bei der Organisation. Auch Pino im Service ist mitreissend herzlich und hat Top-Ideen und Geschichten über Ischia. Das Hotel ist gemütlich 20min zu Fuss von der Innenstadt Forio entfernt und liegt sehr ruhig (nicht direkt an der Strasse) Die beiden Pools bieten eine schöne Abwechslung zu Meer und Spaziergängen und die lebendige Innenstadt. Nichts.
- Erik (8/5): Geweldig - De ligging en de faciliteiten De topper op het matras was te dun voor ons. Daardoor was het matras te hard
- karin (9/5): - Wonderful hotel! The staff and especially Paola are amazing people, very nice and helpful with everything you need. Everything is very family-friendly. The breakfast is great and all the food in the restaurant too. Not far from Citara beach and the town of Forio
- Hilde (10/5): Geweldig verblijf gehad en iedereen aan te bevelen - De gehele service, persoonlijke benadering van gastvrouw en haar personeel
Top eten en gaf ons een 5 sterren gevoel Geen opmerkingen
- Angela (10/5): - Tutto: location, servizi, gentilezza e simpatia di tutto lo staff. Bellissimo! Forza Real Forio!
- Aleksandra (10/5): - Piękny rodzinny hotel otoczony ślicznym ogrodem, położony w cichej okolicy. Paola jest przesympatyczną kobietą, pomogła nam z transportem z portu. Śniadania były pyszne, obsługa bardzo miła. Gorąco polecam pobyt w tym hotelu!!!
- Johanne (10/5): We had a great couple of days. Can’t wait to go again. - People running the hotel were lovely and made us feel very welcome. Nothing.
- Mohammed Elarabi (10/5): - La vue, l'emplacement, l'acceuil chalereux, la piscine ...
- Aiello (10/5): -
- YUAN YUAN (10/5): 很具性价比 - 店家很好客,会到forio码头接送,早餐是典型的意式早餐,各种面包和新鲜水果。咖啡很棒。酒店的泳池和温泉池也不错,躺在泳池边很放松。沙滩就在山下,步行可达,店家还免费提供遮阳伞。 注意我们到达的是ischia码头,打车去酒店要58欧。
- Sophia (9/5): Wundervolle Zeit in einer wunderschönen Unterkunft auf der besten Insel! - Wundervolle Lage, von der Dusche aus und vom Balkon aus Meerblick, super liebe und nette Besitzerin die mit Herz ihr Hotel führt! Der Limoncello und das Frühstück waren super!!! Nichts
- Mehmet Murad (10/5): We recommend, it is perfect place to rest and have nice experiences - Everybody were very kind and the hotel was looking like fairytales
- Romana (9/5): Très bon rapport qualité prix. On espère que la prochaine fois la climatisation marchera. - Localisation est super, la plage est à 5 minutes à pieds, la présence de la piscine thermal avec de l'eau qu'ils changent presque tout les jours! Les propriétaires sont très sympa, ils sont toujours là pour nous aider. La climatisation n'a pas été réparée malgré les promesses. L'option de baisser la température ne fonctionnait pas.
Le café peut être amélioré.
- Mikael (10/5): - We loved the garden and pool area and the super friendly staff. Paola makes you feel very welcome and she is very helpful with guidance, recommendations and practical stuff. We would love to come back.
- Parveen (10/5): Exceptional service in a beautiful location. - Lovely family run hotel. Peaceful, relaxing. Paola went out of her way to look after us. Helped organise great boat excursion. Helped with transportation. She was warm, never got hassled, always helpful. Lovely home cooked breakfasts - variety of pastries, cereal with yoghurt, freshly picked fruit from the garden , and eggs done as requested. The pool was lovely to relax in at the end of our day trips. Lovely contrast to busy, noisy, resort hotels! Room is on the small side. However as you spend very little time there, it’s not a problem.
- Chinkin (9/5): - Location, staff, breakfasts, garden and pool Rooms hot at night
- Tran (10/5): - I stayed back in July, but I waited to see the responses from booking.com before I decided to review. I recommend people, please screenshot your booking . Booking.com made false advertising for all vacation homes/hotels that agreed to pay them more commissions. I booked this hotel room which stated that I had 2twin beds and a queen bed with sea view. I screenshotted after checked in the room and showed it to Paola since my room didn’t have sea view. I had bunk bed (which I wouldn’t mind). Paola showed me her contract with booking.com, which showed a regular room. Even though it wasn’t her fault, she still treated us a dinner ($25/pp at the time I stayed). Dinner was good. Lot of food for us. I reported to booking.com when I got home about the whole situation (I also mentioned the beach was like double of 450ft from the hotel). After back and forth with email, they didn’t commit that they advertised wrong. They said “after carefully looking at” my booking, the room didn’t have the sea view , the terrace had sea view after they made changes on their website 🤣. I was like…wow…so that’s how they do business. Too bad I deleted my screenshots about my booking already after showed it to Paola. The whole hotel pictures and accommodations were very good. All staffs were super nice. Breakfast had plenty of sweets. Even my room didn’t look like any in the current pictures (I assumed they just got updated), but it was clean and very cool with the AC. The room didn’t look not have sea view, but it still was nice to sit out in the terrace, just to look at the greenery. It was peaceful and green. There is a beach close to the hotel ( about 1000ft, which it was said 450 ft on here, with quite steps down, so little tired when go up) . But I liked to walk (10-15 mins) to the one litter further out. It was bigger, easier to get to. But I had to pay $50 for the umbrella 🥶. Overall, I appreciated what Paola, her husband, and their team treated us. Warm, sweet, and polite.
- Ingrid (10/5): Incredible hospitality in beautiful setting 🌅 - All I can say is WOW and Grazie Mille! We had the most wonderful family holiday at Hotel Ideal. Paola was so warm and accommodating to our family of 4 for 8 nights. She has incredibly caring and intuitive energy and she could not have made us feel more comfortable and welcome. Pino was a wonderful host as well for all things food. We loved the thermal pool and the cold pool. The scenery, the pace of daily life, the food, everything was perfect and also a very unique experience! The best holiday we’ve had as a family. We would love to come back one day, we were so sad to leave! Highly recommend staying at Hotel Ideal, it is an unforgettable place and even with 2 small children I felt so relaxed and refreshed every day :)
- Marine (9/5): - La vue, la piscine, les chambres, le petit déjeuner sur la terrasse, la gentillesse de paola, l'emplacement. Le restaurant de l'hôtel, pas du tout à la hauteur de l'hôtel. Salle glauque, repas de cantine, pour 30 euros....même prix pour un enfant de 3 ans.
- Emeli (10/5): Helt otrolig personal! - Personalen var helt fantastiska!! Bra läge nära till stranden. Rummen var jättefina och fräscha. Vi är supernöjda! Rekommenderar starkt!
- Palmi (9/5): Wonderful girls' trip in Forio. - We enjoyed the wonderful breakfast offered in a picturesque garden setting. Paula and her staff were so welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Paula made our stay so much more comfortable by giving us 2 adjoining rooms instead of one. N/A
- Luca (9/5): -
- Marie (10/5): - Amazing location and facilities. The hotel is so cute and cozy. Paula and everyone who works here are so nice and very helpful. The food was home cooked and delicious. The views from the hotel were so beautiful!
- Tiziana (10/5): - Wir haben im Juli 2025 4 Nächte hier verbracht und können das Boutique Hotel Ideal nur empfehlen. Unsere Highlights waren:
- ausserordentlich herzliches und hilfsbereites Personal, wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt
- super Frühstück mit Früchten aus dem Hotelgarten und hausgemachtem Gebäck
- wunderschöner Garten mit Pool, der zum Verweilen und Relaxen einlädt
- optional kann man auch mittag- oder abendessen im Hotel: leckeres süditalienisches Essen zu fairen Preisen
- in ca. 3 Min. ist man zu Fuss beim nächsten Strand; ins Städtchen Forio gelangt man in ca. 20 Min. bei einem schönen Spaziergang durch die Gassen und Wege von Ischia mit Blick aufs Meer. -
- Nina (6/5): Nice 3 star hotel. - The friendly staff and the garden were especially lovely. Paola was very helpful and offered an umbrella for the beach and advice for where to go and what to see. She also helped us rent a car. A good 3 star hotel. The breakfast has many nice cakes if you like sweet things that look freshly made and beautiful. We felt misled - upon booking on here the confirmation stated
‘Breakfast included
Dinner included ‘
And at breakfast we were handed the menu for the evening meal and asked to choose from the three options for the day for the evening. The menu stated no price on it and no one mentioned that the dinner was not included - in fact the way we were asked to choose the food for the dinner every morning was as though we were all on the same page. We were not. Only when we came to check out - before handing us the bill and without us saying anything Paola looked apologetically and said ‘dinner was not included’ - it was clear she knew we hadn’t known that she was charging us €30 per person (including one child who couldn’t ever eat anything on the menu and just ended up having pasta with a tomato sauce every night) - we felt completely had and when we tried to look back at the reservation on booking.com it had changed to just ‘breakfast included’ . - something fishy has gone on here and it very difficult to prove but we really felt that the hotel knew we thought dinner was included - they should be transparent with price and anyone who books should know the dinner is €30 per person drinks not included whether you have one course or all courses. We felt so cheated. Not to mention that we were served food with a meat we didn’t eat mixed in with dishes that didn’t state it would have that meat even though we had said we don’t eat it and asked to not ever have it on our food.
My advice to the hotel is to put the price on the menu and make it clear upon arrival of the things that guests have booked. Transparency about the dinner was lacking and we felt had. When we arrived we got told ‘breakfast is 7-9:30 and dinner is ‘8-9’ - again hearing this fit with what we thought we had paid for. Lesson learned for us also.
- Serena (10/5): Great spot, close to Poseidon thermal baths. - The view, the location, the pool, the staff, breakfast, the newly refurnished rooms. Not much I didn’t like.
- lazar (10/5): - O locație superba cu oameni minunați Mersi Paula vom reveni cu drag!!!
- Myriam (10/5): Great stay in a beautiful setting - The gardens were beautiful. There are 2 pools, on thermal and one regular, surrounded by beautiful flowers and with view of the sea. Breakfast was great with a lot of variety. We had lunch twice and the food was delicious, especially the tomatoes that they grow on the garden. Paola the owner is great and so welcoming and so are Tosca, Sabina et all the others. Everyone is really helpful. Location is amazing. Close to Citara beach. We recommend this property to everyone.
- Bjorn (9/5): -
- Nicole (10/5): Perfection - A pretty hotel set in a beautifully curated garden with pool - pure peace and quiet.
Paola and her team are super friendly and very helpful. We lacked nothing.
The lively town of Forio as well as the clean and crystal clear beach of Citara in walking distance.
One week of blissful dolce-far-niente.
We will be back!
- Chabrat (10/5): Parfait - Le cadre, la beauté du jardin, l’accueil si chaleureux de Paola et de tout le personnel ! On recommande ++ et on espère pouvoir revenir !
- Milla (9/5): - Hotellin puutarha ja uima-allas oli ihana: rauhallinen ja viihtyisä. Omistaja oli todella avulias ja ystävällinen. Ruoka oli herkullista sekä aamiaisella että lounaalla. Seurueen lapset huomioitiin hyvin.
Suosittelisin paikkaa sekä lapsiperheille että ilman lapsia matkustaville. Hotelli on aika kaukana Forion kaupungista, vaikka toisaalta sijainti rauhallisella alueella lähellä rantaa olikin ihana.
- thierry (8/5): Un hôtel agréable mais un peu cher en rapport qualité/prix - La gentillesse du personnel et en particulier de Paula la propriétaire qui a été ultra efficace pour nous trouver des solutions pour la location d’un bateau et de nos scooters à des tarifs très compétitifs. Paula nous a aussi fait de bonnes recommandations pour nos activités.
Le jardin de l’hôtel est sublime et la 2eme piscine chauffée a 40° est très agréable.
Le village d’Obio tout proche est charmant.
Un breakfast très correct sans être exceptionnel pour autant.
Après avoir visité l’île de Capri 2 ans auparavant, je trouve que cette île d’Ischia est une plus intéressante que l’île de Capri que nous avons visité il y a 2 ans. Le bâtiment blanc que l’on voit sur les photos de Booking et qui laisse penser que l’hôtel est isolé au milieu de nul part n’est pas l’hôtel Idéal mais l’hôtel voisin… Un peu trompeur car il y a un autre hôtel juste devant l’hôtel Ideal.
Un manque de tranquillité autour de la piscine car il y avait quelques enfants forcément excités par l’eau. Mais cet hôtel n’était pas annoncé comme étant « adults only »
Une partie de l’hôtel a été bien rénové alors que le reste est vieillissant. Mais Paula nous a dit que d’autres chambres seraient rénovées en 2026. Ce sera une bonne chose.
Des produits sanitaires trop légers qui nous ont amené a acheter une bouteille de shampooing et de savon…
Globalement, je trouve que la qualité générale de l’hôtel Ideal et de ses services n’est pas à la hauteur du tarif élevé que nous avons payé.
Dit autrement, le rapport qualité/Prix n’est pas terrible même si encore une fois, tout le personnel s’est montré très attentionné.
- Vm (10/5): Best hotel on Ischia - food is absolutely amazing – from the incredible breakfast to the delicious dinners and even the lunches, every meal was a real treat. The views are breathtaking, the pool is fantastic, and everything is spotless with great air conditioning. But what really makes this place so special is the staff. They are truly wonderful – always there to help with a smile. A special mention for Paola, the kindest and most helpful lady you could ever meet. She gave us excellent advice, helped us book excursions, and even fixed our ferry tickets when we made mistakes. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We felt so welcomed and cared for. It honestly felt like staying with family. We can’t recommend this hotel enough, we will definitely be back! Nothing
- Denis (8/5): Séjour agréable mais avec un rapport qualité prix dégradé - L'amabilité et la qualité de service de Paola. Vraiment à nos petits soins. Jardin très beau et agréable. 2 piscines
Petit déjeuner correct.
Situation correcte Pour un hôtel qui est noté comme exceptionnel nous attendons un peu plus en terme de service. Par exemple pas d'eau dans le mini bar, ni de cafetière.
Dans la salle de bains les produits mis à notre disposition sont très sommaires.
Il faut demander les serviettes pour la piscine
Les photos sur le site sont très flatteuses notamment le coucher de soleil. Il est à noter que l'hôtel se situe derrière un autre établissement
Les tarifs pratiqués sont relativement élevés pour la prestation
- Anduela (10/5): Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und können das Hotel nur weiterempfehlen - Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit unserem Aufenthalt im Hotel Ideal. Die Lage ist ideal, um die Stadt zu Fuß zu erkunden. Das Frühstück war lecker, und das Personal war sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Wir können das Hotel nur empfehlen. Die Besitzerin, die Paula ist die Beste.
Das Personal, Pino und Salvatore, sind sehr freundlich und aufmerksam.
- Valérie (10/5): Superbe séjour dans cet hôtel, je recommande ! - Tout était parfait, la chambre belle et confortable , le balcon, la piscine , l'emplacement pratique avec parking couvert.
Le personnel très gentil et attentionné.
- Helen (10/5): Gorgeous place, fabulous staff, amazing stay! - We loved everything about this place! The staff were so friendly and helpful (especially Paula, who was so lovely), the gardens were beautiful and such a relaxing place to hang out. The pool area was great, plenty of room and even when other guests were there you didn't feel like you were all in each other's space. Close enough to Forio town centre that a taxi or bus is fairly straightforward, but we also stayed in the immediate area for food/drinks sometimes and there were a few nice places in easy walking distance (even in the heat!). The view from our room was gorgeous and the hotel felt really quiet and relaxed. We had a triple room and there was space for us all to not feel like we were crammed together too much. Breakfast was good, lots of options of pastries and fruit and omelettes. It felt like really good value for money and I would definitely recommend! Literally can't think of a bad thing to say!
- Francesco Maria (8/5): Relax nella splendida Ischia - Accoglienza della proprietaria ottima. Disponibilità nell'accontentarci nelle nostre richieste. Ci ha accompagnato con la sua auto fino alla spiaggia. Ambiente familiare con tanto verde intorno. Ottima la colazione offertaci all'arrivo (anche se non inclusa). Da rimodernare piano superiore (ma già ci hanno comunicato che è in fase di attuazione). Struttura non servita al meglio dai mezzi pubblici
- Noah (10/5): Perfection; the best hotel on the island. - Stop reading this review and go book now before you lose your spot! The hotel owners, Dario and his wife Paola, are the kindest people you'll meet. They work tirelessly to ensure that guests are as comfortable and satisfied as can be. I organized a surprise proposal at their hotel and they went above-and-beyond to ensure that my fiancé would feel special with a room full of balloons, romantic music, and celebratory champagne.
The hotel property itself is literal paradise. Each room has a tremendous view of the ocean and comes stocked with everything you'll need for your time on the island. The hotel property includes a marvelous daily breakfast as well as its own thermal pool and accompanying swimming pool.
This is undoubtedly the best hotel on Ischia! The location, in Forio, is spectacular. Every element of your stay will be perfect due to the staff's commitment to excellence. Don't hesitate any longer, book your stay before it's too late!
- Aranzazu (10/5): - Todo! A destacar, la restauracion, el trato de todo el personal, el espacio lleno de jardines, las piscinas. Comida local con productos frescos! La habitacion completamente restaurada y moderna!
Totalmemte aconsejable para viaje familiar, en pareja, madre/ hija o incluso solo! Enhorabuena a Paola por lo bien que lleva este hotel en el que el personal trabaja feliz!! Nada.
- Liv Inga (10/5): -
- Mirona (10/5): A dream vacation in a wonderful hotel - I have no words to describe this stunning property. Conveniently located next to one of the most beautiful beaches on the island, Spiaggia della Cava dell’Isola, the hotel features a gorgeous garden, a lovely terrace where breakfast is served, and a pool where you can relax after a day at the beach. The bus stop is just a 7-minute walk from the hotel, and tickets are available at the reception.
But what truly sets this place apart is the dedication of the staff. Everyone is incredibly attentive, and Paola, the owner, helped us with everything we needed. She waited for us at the port and brought us to the hotel, gave us tips on what to visit, and even arranged early morning transport at 5 AM to Ischia Porto, where we had to catch the ferry. We were even able to enjoy a coffee and breakfast before leaving so early.
We had a dream vacation. We hope to return someday. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel. Everything about this hotel is great!🤗
- Liv Inga (10/5): Herlig sjarmerende hotel, knall service og knall beliggenhet! - Fantastisk herlig og hyggelig familiedrevet hotel med en vakker hage, basseng, flotte fasiliteter, gode senger! Rent og pent. og god mat. Og vin! De produserer sin egen vin!
Paula er veldig imøtekommende og omtenksom, hun tar godt vare på gjestene sine og organiserer hva det skal være, servicen er 10/10. Hun hjalp oss å reservere bord på et nydelig sted, alt var fullt på en lørdag, men hun fikset det
Veldig fin beliggenhet på hotellet, her kan du styre deg selv som du vil. Det er 5 min å gå til vakre cava dell isola stranden og kort avstand til Citara , Poseidon. Ca 17 min å gå til Forio, en fin kveldstur.
Forio har de vakreste solnedgangene!
Vi var 6 voksne damer på tur, men tenker å komme tilbake med partnere og familie til neste år!
- Jenn (10/5): Must stay when in Ischia - My daughter and spent 4 days in Ischia at hotel Ideal. The owner, Paola is such a genuine and kind person. I feel lucky to have had the privilege to know her! Not only was she incredibly helpful prior to my arrival with coordinating activities, transportation and overall assistance she was so willing to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Paola even drove us to different activities and set up an incredible boat tour of the island. Her entire team is like one big family that felt apart of by the time we left. Breakfast and dinner was divine! This is must stay hotel and missing Ischia and hotel Ideal would be missing out on a wonderful experience.
- Ashley (10/5): - This was the perfect place to stay in Ischia. The property is absolutely beautiful. The room was very comfortable. Staff were super friendly and helpful, including booking dinner reservations and transportation to the ferry port for me. The location is great, an easy walk to the beach, thermal pools, and town. Would absolutely stay here again.
- Paula (10/5): Nozze d'oro perfecta - Es difícil escoger qué te gusta más de este lugar. Es paz, es tranquilidad, es poder disfrutar de la familia... en mi caso. El personal es muy agradable, desde el encargado de la cocina (se come bastante bien), hasta el camarero que se encarga de que las noches sean especiales poniéndote una copita y encendiendo las luces de la piscina... Gracias a todos. También a las encargadas de la limpieza y recepción, siempre atentas. Y mencionar la atención de Paola, la encargada. En mi caso fui con mi familia por una celebración muy especial, y durante meses estuve escribiendo mil dudas y cosas que eran importantes para que todo saliera perfecto. Siempre recibí respuesta y toda la ayuda necesaria. Eso no lo hace cualquiera.
Respecto a la isla y la ubicación, mejor ir a comprobarlo en persona. Me hubiera gustado tener algún día más para ver más localizaciones, pero el castillo aragonés y sus vistas es un imprescindible, sin duda :-) Absolutamente nada.
Lo único que hay que tener en cuenta es que se necesita transporte para ir a casi cualquier sitio, sobre todo si vas con personas mayores y niños (al pueblo se puede ir andando, está a 15 minutos) Hay autobús si lo prefieres y ellos llaman a un taxi siempre que lo solicitas. A nosotros incluso nos acercaron a los Jardines de Poseidon (imprescindible ir) en su transporte particular gratuitamente.
- Vlad (10/5): Pentru un sejur Ideal in Ischia - Gradina si personalul Boutique Ideal sunt excepționali. Paola este o gazdă minunata, caldă care își dorește sa te simți cat mai bine cât timp ești cazat la ei. Și nu doar își dorește ci si face ceea ce tine de ea sa iti faca sejurul cat mai placut. Am petrecut 3 nopți minunate si am reveni oricând cu placere. Adresa primita pentru locație nu a fost corecta pt Google Maps si am ajuns pe un drum de unde era sa nu mai putem.iesi (decât cu spatele).
- Barry (10/5): - Fabulous family-run hotel in a beautiful setting. There is a lovely terrace for breakfast/lunch set in the gorgeous gardens. The west-facing room balcony overlooks the sea and captures the stunning sunsets. The hotel is a 15-20 minute walk from Forio, and a 10 minute walk down steps to a lovely beach. Dario and Paolo are extremely friendly and helpful hosts - Dario collected and dropped us to/from the ferry in Forio and gave us lots of information about the island, and Paolo helped us reschedule a day trip by calling the tour operator. Would highly recommend. Nothing

- Stefanie (10/5): We loved everything about our stay at Ideal and will definitely recommend and visit again!! - The breakfast service and food options were outstanding , ie freshly made omelette at my request, coffee made to my liking, fresh baked cake/pastries, homemade preserves. The gorgeous garden, covered patio setting for dining was so tranquil. We especially loved the planned ahead breakfast that was waiting for us when we had to depart before the scheduled breakfast hour. The staff and proprietors (Paola and Dario) were most friendly and go out of their way to accommodate their guests . Dario arranging a dinner reservation for us at Marvisiello , which was the best meal experience we had on the island! When we asked about scooter rentals, he arranged to have the scooter delivered and picked up for us, making it so easy and convenient.
- Beatriz (10/5): I would say Forio as a town is the perfect place for sunsets, beach swimming (Citara Bay a few hundred meters to walk) - I love the family/staff who are there, from gardeners , room attendant, owners, restaurant staff. They were all so kind, helpful and they gave us a lot of tips on how to enjoy Ischia to the max (airport transfers, best pizza on the island, beach, boat island tour, going around, etc, etc). The room was impeccably clean (hubby only stays in immaculately clean rooms) . Thought it was small at first, but actually was very comfortable size-wise and had a super view of the sea and garden from the balcony. The garden was beautiful with its diverse flora , so well kept, it’s a pleasure to savor the beauty of them all. The pools (one normal with jets , 1 thermal) were perfect for 4 couples to swim at the same time, so sizes are ok. Enough umbrellas and lounge chairs for all to enjoy. Breakfast was consistently good, with more than enough selection , can always order egg dishes as well. Our 5-course dinner on Sunday was with cognilio (famous specialty of Ischia) or fish as main dish , served. We opted for the fish though, so we missed the opportunity to taste the island’s best fish. But, we were more than satisfied with the fish too and pleasantly surprised how great each course was, the presentation and taste! Ambience for dinner at the terrace was also quite romantic . As there were no pool towels, don’t forget to bring your own beach towels (but they gave us the room towels so it was ok too 👍) One could arrange car/ taxi pick ups , there is though a bus stop right on the main road - about a 100 meters from the hotel. As buses come often , safe and not crowded, it is the best option to go to different parts of the island. - ok these are also all positives!
- Manuela (10/5): Magnifico - Una struttura ben predisposta se si vuole evadere dal caos.
Ha dei panorami mozzafiato
Le camere e tutta la struttura sono ben curate e pulite
Personale molto disponibile gentile ed efficiente
E la signora Paola una persona squisita,eccezionale e risolutiva.
È stata la mia prima volta ad Ischia e non potevo scegliere posto migliore.Ci ritorneremo senz altro

- Martina (10/5): 10/10 - Ubytovanie, poloha, jedlo, ochota majitelov ci personalu mozem kludne hodnotit s navyssim skore. Majitelia vytvarali prijemnu a priatelsku atmosferu. Mozem len odporucat. Vyborne Nic
- Maroso (9/5): Proprietari molto cordiali e disponibili, splendido giardino. - Spazi esterni curati, piscina aperta anche la notte, terrazza per la colazione
- LOUISE (7/5): Good location but they need to improve the food and use the garden for dining - The hotel is run by a charming couple who are very attentive in meeting your travel and information needs. It was nearish the beach and the bus stops and had a gorgeous garden with olive trees and two great pools The room was quite small and no accessible cupboard for the person on the far side of the bed and the view of the sea was to the side and not very visible. So a bit disappointed considering how much we paid - £200 a night. There were no nice toiletries and they charged 5 euros for a pool towel hire. At breakfast we were surprised by instant coffee and no fresh juice or fruit salad. Dinner was good value but served in a dark basement room rather than in the garden and a bit of a limited menu
- Trudi (8/5): The hosts go above and beyond to help. - We were lucky enough to get a newly refurbished room with its own terrace and sea view. The room was a good size and very nicely decorated, with a beautiful modern bathroom featuring gorgeous hand-painted tiles.
Dario and Paola were so hospitable and welcoming. Dario picked and dropped us at Forio Port and was always happy to suggest places to visit.
The pool was a great place to relax in the afternoon and the thermal pool was really good. The room had a small hanging space, and although they brought extra hangers, it was inadequate for dresses and maxi dresses.
We were surprised not to have a kettle or coffee making facilities.
The bathroom was large and very light and airy but would have benefited from towel hooks, a vessel for toothbrushes and a soap dish. Also, the only mirror was above the sink but was hung high and at only 5’4” I could just see from my chin up.

- Anne (10/5): Erholsame Unterkunft mit sehr nettem Personal - Das Frühstück war sehr reichhaltig. Viele verschiedene Kuchen und Müsli und Brot, Kaffee, Cappuccino, Tee, Aufschnitt, Brot und Brötchen, Obst. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der Garten ist wunderschön. Das Pool ist so tief, dass man gut schwimmen kann. nichts
- Higgins (10/5): Exceptional hotel. Perfect in every way. - Our stay here surpassed all expectations. The hotel has an incredible relaxed feeling. Breakfast is served in the lush garden and the owners are there every morning, greeting the guests and helping with restaurant reservations and day trips. They are two of the nicest people you could meet. There's is a really sense of family here. The rooms are beautiful, spotless, with a good sized terrace to enjoy the sunshine. We had dinner in the hotel one evening, a must. Exceptional value and delicious food, go hungry !
This is the kind of hotel you will want to return to again and again. We will be back for sure. Nothing
- Silvia (10/5): Gran hotel en z - El Hotel es muy bonito y tiene un jardín estupendo. Fuimos con niños y destacamos tanto las piscinas, una de ellas termal, como la cercanía del Hotel a una preciosa playa con unas vistas increíbles. El alojamiento es cómodo y merece la pena para visitar la isla. Los propietarios son muy amables y te ayudan desde el primer momento en todo lo que puedes necesitar. Incluso nos llevaron del puerto al Hotel tanto al llegar como al hacer el check Out. Agradecemos mucho su atención y el hecho de explicar de manera muy sencilla a los clientes como aprovechar al máximo los días. Sin duda un acierto Alojarte en este bonito Hotel. Lo recomendamos… además ischia es un paraíso! Nos gusto todo!
- Orla (10/5): - Absolutely loved our stay at the hotel ! Dario and Paola and everyone at the hotel were so welcoming, kind and helpful.
Incredible gardens and pool area - absolutely idillic - beautiful views. The pool was lovely, and the thermal pool was incredible.
Breakfast was great- fruits pastries yogurts etc.
The rooms were lovely and were cleaned everyday.
I would recommend staying here to anyone visiting Ischia! We hope to come back soon! Nothing- everything was perfect
- mario (9/5): da ripetere - posizione ottimale, a metà tra Forio e Citara. I proprietari attenti, disponibili, e pronti ad accontentare le richieste dei clienti, anzi ad anticiparle. Difficile chiedere di meglio. Torneremo alla prima occasione
- maryse (10/5): Séjour merveilleux dans un petit paradis près de tout à pieds et des propriétaires tres charmants et conviviaux - Les propriétaires , l ambiance , la localisation Rien
- francesca (10/5): Una pausa in relax - Dario e Paola sono degli ospiti eccezionali
Il giardino è curatissimo e accogliente
La colazione ricca e variegata Il bagno un po’ piccolo
- Patrice (10/5): - Nous avons tout adoré, mais en particulier la gentillesse et la disponibilité de l'ensemble du personnel, l'emplacement, les petits dej....
Un 10/10 amplement mérité
- Teodora (10/5): - Un superbe hôtel, avec un emplacement exceptionnel : très beau jardin, vue à la fois sur le mont Epomeo et la mer, à deux pas d'une belle plage (en contrebas d'une falaise et c'est l'une des seules d'Ischia sans loueurs de chaises longues, on n'a pas l'impression d'être dans une usine à touristes). Les piscines sont très agréables (pas besoin d'aller à Poséidon quand on a la piscine thermale !) et la vue mer de la chambre était encore plus belle que sur les photos !
Les propriétaires de l'hôtel ont été très gentils et très attentionés.
Nous reviendrons avec plaisir !
- Stefano (7/5): -
- Dunja (10/5): - Lage und Herzlichkeit der Gastgeberin Hellhörig
- Panizza (8/5): - Giardino, piscina termale e proprietari
- Sarah (10/5): - Les patrons super sympa ☺️. Nous reviendrons
- Amy (10/5): Impeccable food, views and service! A wonderful gem! - The gardens were a piece of heaven and the atmosphere is super chill, beautiful and serene. Paula and Dario went above and beyond to make our stay convenient, comfortable and first class. We truly felt well taken cared of, relaxed and at home. Staying here is highly recommend, unique and a hidden, exclusive gem. I would recommend it for couples, families or as a group retreat- their accommodations serve them all while making you feel like you’re their special guest. Impeccable food, views and service. We are truly grateful for this experience and wish we could have stayed longer- it was the hi-light of our entire trip!
- carlos (10/5): Descanso en Isquia con trato muy bueno - Los dueños son increíblemente serviciales y desde que llegas al puerto hasta que te vas te hacen sentir muy especial. Sin duda ganan todo y gracias Dario!.
El desayuno es bueno y te cocinan para ti por si hubieses algo el buffet que no quieras.
Todo el personal de 10 y las vistas son muy bonitas y relajantes. No diría nada, ya que todo estuvo muy bien. Por poner algo, las habitaciones algo antiguas pero cómodas.
- Karol (10/5): Family holidays at place filled with great food and great people. - I would like to share a very positive review of Hotel Boutique. The hosts were exceptionally kind, honest, and helpful especially that we visit Ischia with child. The hotel staff was highly professional yet very friendly. The cuisine, especially the dinners, was outstanding, featuring regional dishes made with local ingredients.
- Laurance (7/5): -
- Andy (10/5): If I return to Ischia, I wouldn't hesitate to return. Very highly recommended. - Dario and Paola are fantastic hosts. Picked us up and dropped us off at the port. Also to the thermal spa and back. Very friendly in a genuine subdued way. Beautiful and quiet property. Every other staff member was polite, friendly, and helpful. Room was updated and beautifully appointed. Nice (shared) terrace. Pool and thermal tub also beautiful. Nothing
- Armin (10/5): A blissful experience with very personalized attention in this gem in a beautiful setting on the western coast of Ischia - The personal, warm-hearted, welcoming attention by Paola, who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, her highly motivated staff, the on-site thermal spring pool with 38°C and adjacent regular swimming pool, very well kept building and facilities in a beautiful natural setting, away from the busy street but easy walking distance to the Poseidon Thermal Baths, Citara beach, nearby restaurant L’Isola, gorgeous views. The variety of fresh fruit at the breakfast buffet was a little limited.
- Daniele (10/5): - Abbiamo viaggiato in moto e ci siamo mossi senza problemi. A piedi con 15 minuti si raggiungono le Terme Poseidon. La struttura è veramente bella, pulita e luminosa. Piacevolissime le colazioni nel patio che si affaccia sul verde e curatissimo giardino. Davvero complimenti a Paola che trasmette la sua passione per l'ospitalità. Grazie torneremo Nulla
- Cristiana (10/5): - Ho adorato sentirmi "a casa" in un albergo accogliente, pulito, luminoso, immerso nel verde, isolato ma paradossalmente vicino a tutto
- Flavia Akemi (10/5): - The hotel is full of nature and clean, has a nice breakfast and the owners are lovely! They picked us up at the port, helped selling us bus tickets to make our lives easier, provided us an upgrade to a sea view room and gave us a lot of nice recommendations. We 100% recommend!
