Reviews for Grand Hotel La Playa

Review 1:The staff were friendly enough, but I don't think they were really used to or wanting non-Italian guests (not really bothered about explaining how the hotel ran or making sure we were okay). The rooms were poor and poorly equipped, there wasn't really a functioning restaurant so you had to eat out for lunch and dinner. This is really a 3 star hotel, not 4 - but the location and outside facilities are great (which is what we went off).

Review 2:Fantastic location, Sperlonga was lovely and it was great being right on the beach. We had a lovely time, very relaxing.

Review 3:Not been able to leave the window open in the bedroom as there is no net for Mosquitos , very hard to sleep with air condition .

Review 4:The pool & beach was lovely & very confortable

Review 5:More variety in the breakfast and a better wifi service. Wifi timing was very short and you had to keep logging in.

Review 6:The staff were very friendly and the facilities were excellent for a beach holiday.

Review 7:All great but the lack of comfort of the bed and pillows ruined the stay as we woke up with the worst back and neck aches. They need to invest in proper comfortable mattresses and pillows and then it would have been great. The only other issue was that a female either manager or owner of the hotel screamed at a staff member in front of us - very unprofessional.

Review 8:Although the hotel looks modern and well-maintained the rooms are a bit tired. In particular the shower cubicle in our bathroom was tiny and very difficult to use effectively.

Review 9:Sperlonga is a beautiful seaside resort far enough from the airports not to attract the foreign package trade. La Playa is well-located on the seafront with outdoor pool and private beach with facilities included. Staff were helpful and friendly. Good access to the old town.

Review 10:Acceptable wifi only in the hotel reception, badly run breakfast, expensive lunch/dinner. All services cost (beach towels, water in the rooms, safety box etc). Hotel reception and pool area are great, but room standard is three star, at most.

Review 11:Perfect location, wonderful beach, nice pool, kind hotel staff.

Review 12:Wifi wasn't working in the hotel rooms but on the other hand that was also a positive thing :-). The breakfast was good but it was just the same every morning. No variation.

Review 13:Location Friendly English speaking staff Clean rooms with an air condition Pool and own beach

Review 14:Very friendly and helpful staff, great pool for our kids (2&6) with a large shallow end, and fantastic beach, only a short walk from the charming town of Sperlonga and a stone's throw from a supermarket, shops and kiosk for postcards and bus tickets. Off-season visit in the first week of June meant there were some people around but never crowded, and the temperature did not get too high at noon, but the sea had warmed up enough for a refreshing swim. The local bus to and from Fondi train station worked a charm, and was well timed with both incoming and outbound trains to Rome.

Review 15:Rooms are average. Beds are small. Wifi is super slow. They charge 10 euro/day for a crib that seems outrageous.

Review 16:Great place, great beach facilities and swimming pool. Very friendly staff.

Review 17:We stayed in the new addition, the room was great, with a great view, friendly and helpful staff, the pool was the best, breakfast was plentiful and full of options, the location is great, close to everything you need.

Review 18:If I should pick something that was not really that good I would say that the beds were a bit too hard, as they usually are in the south of Europe. One other thing is that the balconies are quite small.

Review 19:When we searched for a hotel in Sperlonga this was the one that we liked the best and it also met our expectations. It is one of few hotels in Sperlonga that is located right on the beach and also has a swimming pool. It is also close to the old town of Sperlonga. You have a great view of the old town from the beach outside the hotel and not many minutes to walk there. The beach is very nice and the sunbeds are included in the price. It is possible to get a room with a nice seaview. The hotel is tidy and well kept. A really nice place to stay.

Review 20:If the staff had smiled, been happy and a little more courteous (as the lifeguard was) it would have made this an excellent experience.

Review 21:The location of the hotel is excellent and access to the pool area and beach is easy, outside is kept well maintained. The inside and our room were clean but tired, typical of many coastal hotels. Parking and WiFi included.

Review 22:The staff didn't speak very much English. If you don't speak Italian, beware. We had a lot of confusion with the beach bed system before someone could explain it. All the signs are in Italan. The staff was not overly friendly, but that could just be discomfort with having to speak English. The ones answering the e-mails were great, so we e-mailed instead of going to the front desk. Problem solved!

Review 23:The beach was amazing. The hotel was perfecty located. The breakfast was good for being Italy. Close to Rome, so we stayed here after a weekend in Rome. Easy to take the train and bus, but the hotel also offers shuttle services. Again, love love love the beach!

Review 24:Wi-Fi was spotty in our room. Had to keep logging in so many times.

Review 42:Lovely located at the beach. Spacy and well desighed hall, garden and pool.

Review 43:Breakfast was poor and staff were rather miserable. No menus displayed for the restaurant so no idea about prices.

Review 44:The situation is superb. The reception, bar and beach staff excellent. The hotel was within 15 minutes walk of 8 restaurants. The old town, 20 minutes walk away had loads more restaurants.

Review 45:Don't expect any extra services. You can't iron your own clothesand laundry service closed in the evening.Front desk could not help withany of the travel questions we had. Hotel wanted 30 euros per day fortwo friends to sit on the two sunbeds we already have paid for as partof the accomondation. And 50 euros per day if the friends wanted theirown two sun beds! We also witnessed managers being extremely rude to thestaff, like when a manager polished his glasses in the t-shirt of anemployee and send him off. We wanted to extends our days, but chose adifferent hotel after the poor service and high prices.

Review 46:Good location, ok food and reasonable clean. Staff at lower levels andnice and polite.

Review 47:The breakfast buffet was always running out of food No parasoll on balcony Better straff assistance on arranging sightseeing tours. Hotel website should recommend tourists to rent a car for visiting nearby sites. The wifi only works in the lobby, and not in room!

Review 48:Good location Nice pool

Review 49:The hotel did not seem like a 4 star hotel. The breakfast was poor, not good value for money and we would not stay there again.

Review 50:It was a lovely location. Sperlonga is a perfect place.

Review 51:Our air con broke but we got moved to another bigger room straight away.

Review 52:Sperlonga is a beautiful holiday town. We loved the restaurants and the hotel was right on the beach. Very relaxing and not a lot of tourists.

Review 53:Restaurant staff, with one exception, tended to be formal and distant. Rooms that we had were good but beds were hard.

Review 54:Excellent location with pool leading straight to private beach. Modern hotel with good facilities for a beach holiday. Short walk along the front towards the old town. Some of the staff were both friendly and helpful.

Review 55:within a week there were monotonous breakfasts

Review 56:Comfortable hotel with an excellent beach and the pool. Polite and attentive personnel. Good cleaning of numbers.

Review 57:You can only have food during certain times of the day. No snacks available outside lunchtime hours and you have to book for lunch or dinner in advance.

Review 58:The hotel was in a nice position close to the bus stop to take you into Fondi. Rooms are spacious and exceptionally clean. The staff very friendly and helpful would definately stay here again

Review 59:Cramped bathroom, shower "compact", to say the least. Noisy - could hear people above - could even count how many coins they dropped on the floor - there seemed to be poor sound insulation. Very little information about the facilities, no attempt to entice us into restaurant - not even a menu displayed. Room was advertised with Sky TV, but it seems you had to pay - at least, as far as we could understand. Problems picking up the free wi-fi too, apart from very close to reception area.

Review 60:Excellent position right on the beach and within easy walking distance to the town. Beautiful swimming pool and plenty of room for guests on attractive terraces + direct access to beach. Hotel kept very clean too. Breakfast more than adequate.
