Don’t stay in this hotel !! I’m from USA and this hotell has no resorts amenities . The beach is1 mile away from hotel , when you get to the beach you have to find the spot for the chairs and umbrella . We were 3 people and they only gave us 2 chairs !!! I had to grab a chair myself because they refused to provide 3 . We decided to go back to the hotel to enjoy the pool since the beach was not that great . To our surprise we couldn’t stay in the pool area because they closed when they have a wedding or a venue (it was 1 pm in the afternoon) . After all this inconvenience I decided to check out on day earlier . The staff gave me a hard time a the beginning they refused to refund part of my stay . I told them that they gave false advertisement on Expedia , they advertise like a full resort hotel and that’s not even close to what a RESORT it’s ! After a while they realized my point : NO BEACH , NO POOL TO ENJOY what was the purpose of staying there ??? They gave me some money back not all but I was happy anyways I just want it to get Out if there ASAP . Also the town near by has nothing to offer so honestly not worth your trip,

The pool was wonderful along with the beach. Few staff spoke English - Christina was very helpful. The female manager gave us a very bad impression when she told our children off at arrival (we had had a 10 hour journey) for laughing and messing about. It was really unnecessary as they were well behaved and no one was around. It was a very bad welcome. No information in English about any local sites or tours. The hotel lunch at the pool was very limited and expensive by local prices (salads or baby pasta). You definitely need a car to go to Paestum itself which was amazing and to visit local sites. You can’t walk far as the roads have no pavements and it’s too hot. The rest of the staff were lovely and there are 2 really nice beach bar restaurants nearby. But hard to find.

Lovely hotel for short stay

Hotel has exceptional pool and lovely beach. It is quite remote, so a car would be beneficial, the reception staff are lovely, the staff in the dining room are quite surly and unwelcoming and avoided eye contact at all costs. We ended up feeling quite uncomfortable about going in to breakfast. There is no information about what is available such as room service, lunch and dinner bookings. The bar was in the basement and always empty with apparently no one serving. There is a fridge in the room but no tea or coffee making facilities, which is a shame, especially when there is no information about getting tea or coffee other than at breakfast.
I think most people stay for a couple of days so they can go and see the ruins at Paestum or if they are attending a wedding. There were 3 evening wedding while we were there - which we knew about as I had emailed the hotel to check. They did not impact our stay in any way.

Toddler disco anyone?

Hard to describe, but not a pleasant experience. Imagine a purported family-friendly resort that also blares loud music across the entire compound at all hours of the night. We are experienced but pretty forgiving travelers, and the rest of our Italy experience was fantastic. But this place was not only bizarre but the staff were very unwelcoming, uncooperative and rude. We can't recommend the Paestum area enough, but stay anywhere but here unless you want to lock your toddlers in their room so you can go off and dance by the pool. To be fair, they did have a nice private beach and the room was clean, but our compliments really have to stop there.

Molto bene, lo raccomando

Piscina fantastica. Bene il ristorante e aree comuni. Molto bene gli appartamenti indipendenti, ognuno con il suo posteggio. Molto bene le rifiniture. Manca qualche mobile in più per dare confort e ambiente all'appartamento. Essendo un hotel essenzialmente per le vacanze sarebbe bene dare più possibilità di diversione ai clienti, oltre alla piscina.

Matrimonio a Paestum

Ho prenotato una camera matrimoniale in questo hotel in cui la sera si sarebbe svolto il ricevimento dopo il matrimonio a cui eravamo invitati e mi hanno assegnato un appartamento ben arredato con ingresso-soggiorno, due camere da letto e bagno. Ho richiesto per email di poter effettuare il check-in un paio di ore prima dell'orario previsto, hanno risposto cortesemente presto e ho trovato la sistemazione già disponibile all'arrivo.
Tutti gli appartamenti hanno un accesso indipendente e un posto auto sottostante, coperto e comodissimo ( a cui si accede da un cancello apribile con la tessera magnetica della camera ).
L'hotel ha una grande hall e molti spazi con divani e poltrone sia all'interno che all'aperto.
La sala del ricevimento, la piscina e gli spazi adiacenti erano di grande effetto, soprattutto la sera ( seguono foto ). La cena è stata ben strutturata, con portate ben presentate, abbondanti e di qualità.
Buona anche la colazione ( non scrivo ottima perchè il vero espresso era disponibile solo a pagamento nel bar accanto alla sala ).
Personale professionale e attento.

Bel hôtel , proche de la mer

Très bel hôtel avec piscine exceptionnelle mais absence de bar autour de la piscine! Pas à recommander avec des enfants car horaires de baignades très strictes. Salle à manger en sous-sol sans vue extérieure!

Hotel nabij Paestum

Hotel is mn toegerust voor events, ontbijt is erg matig en personeel redelijk beperkt in de omgang zeker niet 4 sterren niveau
kamer op zich prima maar geen waterkoker douche middellen ondermaats
In totaal is de prijs kwaliteitsverhouding niet juist

Ambiente molto scenografico, ma anche di sostanza sia per le strutture che per il personale. Tipico luogo per lo svolgimento di matrimoni, che durante il mio soggiorno non hanno creato insoddisfazioni (2 giorni, 2 matrimoni). Sono rimasto deluso dalla colazione che nel rispetto dell'ambiente mi attendevo fosse più ricca e sofisticata. Come al Bar!

Hotel à recommander

Très bon accueil. Hotel proche de sa très belle plage privée et pas trop loin du site historique et de l'excellente caseificio Barlotti. Personnel agréable. Très belle piscine. Présence de mariages récurrents (bruit, ambiance,...) Vélo mis à disposition absolument pas opérationnels (dommage). Excellent Wifi.

**Moderno**

Di bello impatto, gentili i receptionist
Camere ampie ben curate e ottimamente arredate
Posizione tranquilla a giusta distanza sia mare (300m) sia centro (3 km), è indispensabile l'auto, assenza di mezzi pubblici di trasporto.
Piscina di dimensioni notevoli
Ha soggiornato in Agosto 2014, viaggiato in famiglia.
