Reviews for Hotel Dei Pini
Review 1:the breakfast selection was limited: croissants, biscuits, yogurt. there was a coffee machine for hot drinks, which was really disappointing: given that Italy is the home of good coffee I sould have preferred to have coffee properly brewed rather than out of a common machine.
Review 2:Thelocatoin is convenient to visit the local attractions: valle dei templi, pirandello's home and scala dei turchi. onsite parking is very convenient
Review 3:Difficult to find. We were not expecting to drive though the forecourt of a petrol station, for accessing the hotel. This was not a problem once we knew where the hotel was. Easy when you knew that piece of information.
Review 4:The hotel was perfect for our requirements and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Set meat the historic Valley of Temples.
Review 5:Breakfast, but given the price it was acceptable
Review 6:conveniently located between La Valle Dei Templi and Cava dei Turchi (one of the most beautiful sceneries I have ever seen)
Review 7:Breakfast adequate but dull. Didn't like the hot drinks dispenser - poor quality.
Review 8:Met our requirements. Clean and unfussy. Excellent location for touring in the vicinity.
Review 9:Dirty pool. Dull staff. In correct information about buses and taxis over charged taxi quote for town. Poor decor. Dirty walls in bedroom. Noisy air con. Terrible breakfast.stale bread. Charred coffee. Sour milk. Dreadful tea.Staff using pool while collecting ash trays around pool side. Staff staring at us by poolside. Overpriced beer. Little/no selection of drinks. Room dark and empty. No paintings.Absolute disgrace calling themselves a 3 star. Poor shower and no fan in bathroom.
Review 10:Nothing
Review 11:The hotel is next to a petrol station what we didn't expect. It is not too close to Agrigento or the famous beach (Turchi). I couldn't join to the WIFI in the room, only in the hall, what was very annoying.
Review 12:The swimming pool and the breakfast was good. The cleaning ladies are nice.
Review 13:Rooms and lifts are a little old fashioned. Pool required a few repairs Price a little high for the value
Review 14:Extremely helpful and kind staff, big swimming pool with a charming entertainment, very good restaurant with delicious local seafood
Review 15:The outside swimming pool rules are ridiculous : walk only with shoes around and to/from the pool, compulsory bathing cap, no diving, etc. I also had a fight with the swimming pool instructor who simply puts frightenned kids into the water while screaming ! A 3 y-o girl had her head put down into the water 3 times while crying her heart out, mouth open and trying to reach the firm ground ! I noticed the staff but they didnt seem to care. How can he get away with that ?!?
Review 16:The wifi was not working well, it could only be used in the lobby and with a lot of patience. When we told the reception about this, the man was very short with us. Also the location is not so interesting, next to a very busy road. Beach is close, but still unreachable by foot. The parking lot is overcrowded.
Review 17:The hotel has a nice room, with a nice swimming pool and a good restaurant with good breakfast.
Review 18:Was very hard to connect to the Wi-Fi working, once it connects it works well, The breakfast almost don't have any fruits and the cakes need a little more attention, as well as some bread choices
Review 19:The hotel is a good spot when u want to visit Agrigento and the Scala dei turchi, The swimming pool was nice Staff speak English
Review 20:Old dated place. Lifts in terrible state. Constantly stopping. Can hear people in next room as if inside your room. Shower too small. Shower door only opens about 30cm making it difficult to enter/exit.
Review 21:Well mannered staff. Easy road access.
Review 22:The elevator is rather unpredictable - we even got stuck once (the elevator got stuck in our floor and wouldn't open the door. We then have gone to the ground floor again and changed the elevator). There also were very loud neighbors at night and loud cleaning ladies in the morning.

Review 27:this can be good place for a night if you decide to see nearest ol;d temples.
Review 28:Very friendly and helpful service at the front desk - although they had a large convention to cater to. Room was spacious and comfortable. In total very good value for money charged. Highly recommended for value and location.
Review 29:The TV wasn't working then they moved us to a room without the bed for the baby. When we complained they said sorry you will have to choose between the tv or the additional bed, but they didn't offer any discount for that, which was what we paid.
