Reviews for Grand Hotel Excelsior's
Review 1:A receptionist appeared to be very unhappy to be at work and their customer service was reflected very much in that persons attitude. A service mentality did not exist.
Review 2:Premises were clean and tidy. The staff who cared were very good.
Review 3:NOISE - loud - every night from along the beach. Why so loud? Internet didn't work very well. This Hotel has surely seen better days, but perhaps like a lot of places in the south, no-one can be bothered taking care of things.
Review 4:Location and availability of parking for our car.
Review 5:The location: next door to the Museum with the Riace bronzes; close to the Promenade and sea; easy walking to the centre of the town; close to the seaport. The view from our balcony: of the town, the Straits of Messina and Mt Etna. The breakfast: quality and choice was good...and the outside rooftop added to the pleasure. The staff: most helpful and friendly (especially in following up with lost luggage from our flight). Would stay here again.
Review 6:Impersonal, though efficient, atmosphere. Breakfast disappointing: poor bread, too few savoury items, cooked items unsatisfactory.
Review 7:Luxurious and spacious room. Splendid view of the straits of Messina available from upper rooms and the excellent top floor restaurant. 200 yards from the Archaeological Museum (currently only 8 exhibits, but including the Riace bronzes).
Review 8:This is a "former" grand hotel, now quite tired. The restaurant was closed for no stated reason. The bathroom was not well cleaned, with water and clumps of hair on the floor.
Review 9:The best reason for a tourist to visit Reggio Calabria is to see the Riace Bronzes in the National Museum of Magna Graecia which is just next door to the hotel. Despite its faults, this probably remains one of the best hotels in the city.
Review 10:Restaurant was a disappointment. Food nothing special, certainly not the standard I would have a expected. Would have done better getting a pizza take out. Streets surrounding the hotel were filthy. Rain leaked in through the bathroom window
Review 11:Suite was comfortable
Review 12:No tea or coffee making facilities in the room . No wifi in the room and even in the foyer wifi unreliable .
Review 13:Great position. Restaurant on top floor has panoramic views over the city and across the water to Sicily.Staff in restaurant for breakfast were excellent . Great modern restautant across the road.
Review 14:Four stars. Very nice. Good breakfast buffet but could not get toilet paper, kleenex, or cups—not four star behavior. Very nice staff at desk. Score: 7.8 of 10.
Review 15:Room was clean but probably needed a good scrub of the bathroom floor.
Review 16:Location for museum (unfortunately hand't realised it was mostlyclosed) and RdiC Lido station and ice cream stand (truly excellent).Breakfast on the terrace. Large suite.
Review 17:Reggio di Calabria has lots of traffic and noise. You have to be careful crossing the street. The nearby beach area was not clean. Lots of cans, bottles, plastic in the water and on the shore. We decided not to spend any time there after checking it out.
Review 18:The museum with the Bronze Warriors was right next door. Lots of shopping just a few blocks away where they created a no car zone. Our room had remote control black out screens and a nice balcony overlooking the water and promenade. Lots of good places to eat nearby. Breakfast was served on the upstairs patio with great views.
Review 19:It was indicated room with Seaview but I had 10% Seaview By Guly street
Review 20:Near THE museum
