Reviews for Residence Hotel La Giara

Review 1：The hotel is very quiet though it is close to the port and the city center. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable with the equipment for self catering. We regrated that we stayed only one night and were unable to fully enjoy it.

Review 2：No wifi in the rooms at all - only in the lobby. The shower is very-very small and the water stream is low.

Review 3：The hotel is very nice, rooms are big and comfortable. there is a well equipped kitchen which is nice if your planning to stay a couple of days, and also a nice balcony and pool. The lady in the reception didn't know a word in English, but made a big effort to explain us about the island and the transportation in it.

Review 4：-wifi was only available in pool and breakfast areas - pool had small tiles coming off, not dangerous, but could do with some refurbishing

Review 5：- two min walk from main port, can be accessed from the sea (buzz to be let into the resort) -large spacious room - helpful staff (check in was in Italian, but we found out everything we needed to; wifi, pool, main town, map etc) -5min walk away from main tourist sights and supermarkets - quiet and calm resort

Review 12：Location of the hotel is very comfortable, just 5 mins walk from the port and main street, the pool is big and clean, kitchen in the room is very convenient, would definitely stay there again.

Review 13：At the day of our arrival there were 4 cock roaches in our bungalow. After that I did not see a single one though. There was no room to leave our luggage after we checked out, so it had to be stored outside at a designated location.

Review 14：Great bungalow and nice staff.

Review 15：Really nice place with nice pool and good location. The staff was great!! We had to get a boat at 7.00 in the morning. The night before they brought us breakfast so we didnt leave hungry. Thanks for a great stay.

Review 16：The wifi wasn't very reliable at times but it was like this throughout Italy.

Review 17：The pool was great after a hot day on the islands. Very clean apartment for 4 people with a new kitchenette. Breakfast was good for Italian standards and the staff were so helpful. Great location - close to the port for catching the aliscafi and the main street.

Review 18：group of young people for one night making extremely loud noise till 4 in the morning and next afternoon at the pool; nobody there to stop them;

Review 20：No washing up liquid or sponge in kitchen

Review 21：Very near port and easy to find. Balcony at front and back of appartment to chase winter sunshine. Only people in hotel (it was December) but it never felt awkward

Review 22：The mozzies and there was no cleaning facilities in the kitchen yet the staff didn't clean the kitchen. I had to ask for dishwashing liquid which they did provide.....but no tea towels.

Review 23：The pool was great to have to cool down in. Beds comfortable.

Review 24：Breakfast is very limited & although hot food is available it is at extra cost Shower is very small & unless your room is close to reception WiFi is only available in public areas

Review 25：This hotel is very close(5min walk) from ferry & main street of town but still has quite extensive gardens & nice pool area Rooms are large, quiet & comfortable Small kitchen facilities are good enough for "eating in"

Review 26：Small shower, no room WiFi & very limited breakfast

Review 27：Large room, expansive gardens with nice pool all within 5 mins of town & ferry Small kitchen was adequate for self catering

Review 28：Single beds are small, breakfast did not vary, Mosquitos are terrible in September and staff leave windows open after cleaning so the Mosquitos get into the rooms

Review 29：Great pool gardens well maintained, very friendly staff in the main

Review 30：We didn't like while we stayed there for 3 weeks and paying peak price for a buffet breakfast and the facility's , buffet breakfast was serve to you by one of there staff , and the pool some days was used for people that weren't staying there to have aqua gym lessons and even lessons for austisc children in the pool . not happy

Review 31：I like the landscape gardens the pool it was close to the port and the centre of Lipari.

Review 32：The actual shower was a bit small but anyway the most important thing is that it was clean! Wifi was not connecting most of the time ...

Review 33：Location is absolutely amazing, the rooms very spacious, nice view, very clean and rather quiet even though a promenade was just in front of the hotel entrance.Staff is not only friendly but also caring. We were going to miss our last b/fast due to early departure and they left us a tray in our room with coffee, tea, milk, croissants and other goodies - that was quite nice and we did not even have to ask for that!

Review 34：We stay only one night but it is a very beautiful place to stay. The room were clean, the beds comfortable. A very nice garden with a clean swimming pool. Location nearest to Thema "old town". Not longer as 5 min. The breakfast were good. Fresh home made cake, cheese, ham, marmelade, bred, butter, fresh juice etc. If we come back to Lipari we will stay in this Hotel.

Review 35：Lovely relaxed atmosphere, fabulous pool. the position is ideal, right in town but as soon as you go through the gates you could almost be in the countryside surrounded my mountains. Room, services and facilities were very good and the staff were friendly.

Review 36：Definitely we didn't want to leave ..... we simply dream of getting there again.

Review 37：The residence is just few meters away from the port. Yet, once inside, it's a hidden paradise. The staff was very helpful, the room was always kept clean, the views from our bedroom were simply breathtaking. To get to the city centre, it's a few minutes walk. It's a very nice pedestrian area all the way through. We really enjoyed our stay there especially my kids.

Review 38：The pool is too shallow but then it's only a minor complaint.

Review 39：Everything from the excellent location next to the ferries, to the manicured grounds, the excellent breakfasts, the tranquil pool area and the helpful staff.

Review 40：Wifi was only available in the reception area.

Review 41：The Hotel is very close (3 min) to the Ferry (and Bus) Terminal and very eady to find. It was also very close to the main street of Lipari. Our room was very large with balcony, table & chairs and fully functional kitchenette. The bathroom was large and very comfortable. The staff were very helpful with all the information and advice we needed. The breakfast was good, while the pool and garden complimented the Hotel. The Hotel was the most expensive we had during 3 months holiday in Turkey, Greece and Italy but Lipari is expensive. Highly recommended.

Review 42：We loved the size and space within the hotel grounds which for us felt like an oasis within which to relax. The grounds were very well maintained and the pool was very welcome in the July heat. The location so close to the port (for exploring other islands and also for carrying suitcases) was great and once inside the grounds the port was not visible at all. The location to the bars and restaurants in the town was also fabulous. Very easy walking distance.

Review 43：Wifi connectivity was horrible. three seperate wifi-networks, none of them working properly. wifi in the rooms and at the pool would have been nice... and yes i know its vacation :-)
