Reviews for Hotel Talao

Review 1:Rooms facing the street tend to be noisy. Opt for a sea view if you can

Review 2:attentive staff, highly efficient and courteous and catered to every need. located on the beach, with a large pool and ample lounge chairs and deckchairs available for the clientele. Entertainment was provided one night of our stay and the kitchen prepared a typical regional dinner for all the guests

Review 3:Only old people in the hotel. We were the only ones under 70. So expect bingo and karaoke nights. Breakfast is terrible. Zero choice and old buns...

Review 4:Good basic hotel. Everything you need. Nice pool and private beach with free sunbeds.

Review 5:This hotel has a relaxing ambience with a pleasant room, excellent sea view and adequate facilities. The staff were helpful and pleasant with adequate English language. The pool and beach were excellent and uncrowded in the October week of our visit.

Review 6:poor wifi connection

Review 7:location, staff

Review 8:NONE

Review 9:EVERYTHING SOOO GOOD

Review 10:Friendly staff, nice location with sunset views and nice swimming.

Review 11:Location, staff, proposal for dinner was very good

Review 12:Only one slight criticism: the wifi was weak, requiring the computer to be on the desk to function reliably.

Review 13:Friendly staff, good ambiance. I had a nice swim.

Review 14:Air condotioning auto switches off from 9-12 for the cleaners to vacuum, emsures not power outage? Decor is a bit dated but this is a true small Italian family run hotel, so not a big issue!

Review 15:Easy secure private parking, Honeymoon welcome fruit basket. Fresh breakfast including to order eggs and homemade croissants. Also great restaurant down the road.

Review 16:The very friendly staff, courteous, warm-hearted and helpful. The fantastic location close to the beautiful beach and for those who rather would be at the clean pool, there was also that choice. Location within walking distance to various restaurants, the medieval Town or just strolling along the shops; by car quite close up to stunning views of locations from mountains; a drive SS18 to Maratea Christ the Redeemer about 710 feet is recommended. Your vehicle is on private fenced parking - no worries. I was here in the middle of May 2013, because I feel comfortable with less touristlife but although with people around me and was very satisfied. Absolutely perfect room with a seaview and a big sunny balcony. Daily cleaning of the room. This is a place and a hotel I guaranteed will return to. :) Thank you Hotel Talao!!

Review 17:There was no air conditioning so if the guest cannot live without an air conditioner he or she may have a hard time sleeping. Did not bother me at all, however.

Review 18:The people at the front desk were very helpful and very polite

Review 19:Good Morning Last week was our first time to stay with you, however I think Marilyn, my Partner did stay with you over 4 years ago. Your location is excellant, welcoming staff, speaks English and the place is clean. Breakfast is modest, however as it was a very off season time we were happy enough. WE are going back to stay with you in late \May this year Bernard Berry and Marilyn Mc \Key
