The hotel has several 5 star rating points to it. The staff cannot be more helpful and the rooms are comfortable, well sized. The hotel itself is small enough that the staff get to know you and are as helpful as can be.
The negatives- the rooms are not sound proof - so ear plugs are needed and for some reason they charge 2EUR to rent pool towels. I've never been to a hotel where you pay for pool towels. They also don't tell you this when you check in so when you get to the pool, only then are you told, and you have to walk back up to reception.
Breakfast as basic but nice, service at breakfast always with a smile.
Cocktails round the pool were excellent, very reasonably priced and served quickly. The bar upstairs was also great, we didn't try the restaurant as wanted to venture into town at night which is beautiful.

So the property and staff were SUPER nice, it’s a beautiful hotel with beautiful rooms and great staff. They also offer a free 45 min private access to their spa. But there was one huge issue… I got insane amount of bed bug bites. When I complained, they looked but couldn’t see anything. I came back home and the doctor confirmed it is beg bugs… do what you want with this information. It sucked

Room was good, clean and comfy. Cleaning staff were lovely. Breakfast terrible, coffee cold and weak and the all food served on sectioned airline style plates after ordering once from a menu. Tbe bits we could choose - cereal and jam seemed to have a lot of small ants crawling around. Bar or drinks not available during the day unless the pool bar happened to be open which didn’t seem to be a regular event. Spa was tired dirty and not functioning well. The lift seemed to have frequent memory loss - it seemed to forget that we’d pressed a button.
Finally, on arrival we were greeted by a receptionist who talked at us with so much information that we couldn’t take it all in!
Disappointing overall.

Vincento and Sarah thanks for everything, we will really miss you guys. Lorenzo on the reception, very helpful, friendly and always smiling. The pool are was beautiful and well kept.

Good location

A really well located hotel, we were given an upgrade to a sea view which was really appreciated. Even with the upgrade though our room was very small.
In our room we had 2 small milk portions which once used were not replaced.
The staff were all really polite and helpful, on our second day the staff didn’t get our breakfast right.
Guests have an exclusive 45 minute bookable slot in the spa but we felt it could do with a refresh -the jacuzzi was very hit and miss, and the showers didn’t function well.
There wasn’t anything particularly wrong with the hotel but we probably would stay there again if visiting Ischia - it just wasn’t really us maybe.

Excellent hotel with great amenities. Our room, although on the ground floor, seemed to have been renovated recently as it had a very modern feel to it (eg. open shower concept). Very comfortable bed and pillows and overall extremely spacious.
Breakfast is not your typical buffet but rather you choose from a menu. It definitely did not disappoint as you can choose whatever you want without any limitation on quantity. The possibility to book the spa area for yourself for 45 min was a great plus. Rooftop bar/restaurant has a great view of the castle, so make sure to go there for at least a drink. Overall, highly recommended!

I guess we paid when we booked but it was worth it, great staff, great food. Took the bus to negombo hot baths. Walked to a nearby beach. AC worked. Pool was great. Overall very nice and relaxing.

There is disparity in the Superior Sea view rooms. The first one we had was very small with an awkward bathroom. After two nights they gave us a room change and the room was a little bigger and better with a better bathroom. The pool area was lovely and relaxing but the drink prices were almost twice what you’d pay right down at one of the beach bars. The staff was pleasant. The location was convenient to Ischia Ponto and about a 20 minute walk to the port.

Welcoming hotel with panoramic roof terrace.

This stunning tasteful decorated hotel is tucked away from the main road which runs between Ischia Porto and Ischia Ponte so is a very peaceful oasis. All the facilities to guests were first class. From the moment we arrived the front of house staff welcomed us so warmly and gave us recommendations for restaurants and made dinner reservations for us. Our room was on the lower ground floor with a spacious balcony containing pretty wrought iron table and chairs. We had the tasting menu of 8 courses on the hotel roof terrace one evening which was a wonderful experience, the food and the service was amazing, definitely recommended.

Suberb small hotel

Just back from 5 days at this excellent hotel. Situated in a quiet rd next to a park, 5 mins to the old town, 20 mins to the port. Staff here are very friendly, and speak very good English. It appears the hotel has recently been renovated, all rooms and communial areas are clean and modern. Our standard room was spacious and had a view of the pool. Some of the rooms at the back have no view, so enquire further if this is important to you. Pool area is lovely, plenty of space and beautiful manicured plants, trees etc. Breakfast is vey good, plenty of choice. They will cook eggs at no xtra cost. We had omelettes every day. The hot buffet options were poor and coffee was just OK., but these were minor points. This hotel is an excellent option. If you book here you will not be disappointed. Ischia is a beautiful island, come here before the rest of the world discover it!

Great location, but........

Let's start with the positives, which far outweigh the negatives.
Lovely staff. Very clean. Great location. Superb view from the rooftop bar and some rooms.
My fault for not reading the room description correctly, but our room did not have a balcony and was described as a 'Double Comfort Room'. It had a double bed, but it was hardly comfortable.
Really just a place to sleep and shower.
The temperature of the water in the pool was freezing. Hotel swimming pools are to be enjoyed, not endured.
If I stayed in Ischia again I would try another hotel and also read the room description properly.
I wish the staff and owners of Hotel Durrueli well as they are really nice.

Was a guest here from aug 1 to aug 4. Hotel was nice and the location was convenient. Too bad the a/c didn't work. We brought this to the staffs attention multiple times a day, they kept telling us the technician came in but couldn't do much about it. Long story short we spent the entire stay with 28 degrees Celsius in the room. Very uncomfortable considering it was the hottest heatwave italy had gotten in a while. Not much relief when it's 35 degrees out so keeping windows open would've been even worst. overall dissapointing and will not be coming back

Beautiful views, staff and location.

A couples holiday for three days to discover Ischia for the first time. The hotel was extremely easy to find from arrival on the ferry at Cassomacciola port. We drove our own car to the hotel and could park easily. (It was November). The hotel was small and very friendly. The breakfast was very good with very helpful and friendly staff. Our room was beautiful because of the double aspect view. Oath windows offered views across the sea, one to the Gulf of Naples, and the other one which was a French window opening onto a small balcony with table and chairs which allowed us to enjoy beautiful views to the Castello Aragonese, We saw the most beautiful sunrise early one morning. This was a superior bedroom number 313. It was also easy to walk to Ischia Ponte to visit the Castello Aragonese and to Ischia Porto - both lovely towns, thriving with lots of cafes, shops and restaurants.

Our only criticism (the only one we could find!) was that our bed was not attached to the headboard. This meant that when we sat up I need bed to read or admire the views, the bed slipped away from the wall as it was no time attached. However, this is a small issue considering everything's else was so wonderful. We did not use the spa in the hotel, it the facilities looked very nice.

Good 4-star hotel

We had a double room on the ground floor with a view of the pool and stayed for two nights at the hotel. The room was very small and smelly. Be prepared for hearing your neighbours. WiFi connection in our room was good though. Overall, the hotel facilities - spa, outdoor pool, bar areas, restaurant, terrace - seemed to be fine and maintained. Views from the rooftop terrace are nice and we often had the whole terrace only for ourselves. The hotel offers aperitivo in the reception / bar area which we liked. The hotel staff was very welcoming and trying to help. The buffet breakfast offered a variety of warm food and cold cuts coupled with fresh fruit and sweets. Coffee is served by waiters and was of good quality. Yet, the restaurant staff did not seem to be in a hurry to have all items prepared for the start of the breakfast and were slow to replace empty trays with new food. All in all, the hotel is good yet with minor details to improve.

The hotel it was so bad so we couldn't spend there the 2 nights that we booked. They give us a room at the first floor after the first night we left to another hotel even though we payed the whole amount. The hotel should have 2 starts maximum. Bed is so bad, room so tiny, bathroom so tiny, everything old.

It was one of the worst hotel i have ever stayed in my whole life! In the breakfast the served expired cheese Philadelphia. I called the waiter and they apologize.

We guessed where to stay for location on Ischia and guessed right!

Great hotel. Breakfast was AMAZING. Amazing servers, cappuccinos are also included. Spa was really lovely and clean. No one was even there so it was private. Room is small, but they had upgraded us to give us a lovely view of the sea. Beautiful pool area, very well manicured. Since it was still cold, we could not take advantage of the pool or solarium. The one major downside is the bathroom. It is extremely tiny and the door opens up to hit the toilet seat. It was impossible to have more than one person in the bathroom. Dining room is very lovely and spa-like. We did not try the food at the hotel but I am sure the food is top notch.

Lovely hotel in walking distance to the castle

Clean, modern rooms with a balcony; excellent breakfast (fruit, pastries, cooked breakfast, cereals, spreads and a gluten free box); outdoor pool too cold in late October but inside spa facilities useable

Very nice hotel. Room/bed a bit small but nice. WiFi was a bit restrictive (only 1 device, the first to connect one accepted) but otherwise it was working.

Great hotel but disappointing 'beach'

We loved Villa Durrueli - it feels calm, spotlessly clean, with very friendly and helpful staff. The swimming pool is wonderful. Our only quibble is with the claim that it has a very nearby 'private beach'. Bagna Medusa is quite a hike from the hotel, is hardly more than a crowded platform, and charges a 'reduced' rate of eight euros per person. Very disappointing indeed. If the beach had not been included in the hotel features, we'd have been quite happy with all the good things it offers.

Not much sleep for 4 star hotel

Hotel location and facilities are good, but badly let down by quality of rooms, they are clean but very hard beds and noisy air con. We were also a family of four who booked a quadruple comfort room, it was tiny we were lined up literally side by side. We stayed all overall Italy in cheaper hotels and this was by far the worst family room.

Friendly hotel good location

Hotel was small and friendly. There were always Sun beds. Lots of choice for breakfast and other guests said dinner excellent. The rooms however were very small with not much wardrobe space. The location whilst quiet was just a short walk from both the castle end of the island and the port. We can wait to return.

Relaxing Honeymoon Delight

We started to relax the moment we got inside the hotel as the reception staff made you feel very welcome and were fantastic at explaining what the hotel offers. We were shown to our room, and then given a quick tour of the facilities. This was great as you knew straight away how to get to the resturant, pool, well being area etc..
The whole week we were there was a delight, as the room was kept spotlessly clean, the food was terrific and the staff were brilliant.
We had one of the treatments that is offered in the hotel and we had a hot stone massage, which was carried out really well and had us well and truely relaxed for the rest of the day.
The views from the roof garden when enjoying the evening appetiserd is superb, over looking the sea and the Castle Arogonese.

Nice hotel for middle aged or older couples

Stayed with my sister for a few days in late June. Hotel is mostly filled with couples aged 60-80 from Britain. A very laid back, slow environment. They try really hard to accommodate you. Sleepy hotel, \"spa\" isn't great, a distance from the beach. They don't provide free beach/spa/pool towels. Drinks are really pricey (between 6-12 euros a piece) and they don't tell you how much they cost before you sign for them.

Outstanding family vacation!!!

Amazing - really we had a wonderful stay - the entire staff was very kind, accommodating, helpful, cheerful and simply nice! This is not a hotel catering to children but we were very pleased.

As we were coming as a family, we read some random review that the pool was loud and I was concerned- it perhaps a one off case the entire experience was calm, we had a wonderful balcony, the rooms was cleaned and fresh when we returned. The dining experience breakfast and dinners was excellent, friendly reception and bar staff.

Overall, this is one of the best holidays we have had much in part to the hotel staff and their professionalism.

A big thanks,

Brian

Equivalent of a best western

My wife and I recently stayed for 3 nights at Villa Durrurli. If you are paying around $100 a night this hotel is fine. The expectation that it is a resort and spa should be dismissed immediately. They have a pool but do not provide towels unless you pay per towel per day. The hotel is also poorly managed with the staff doing what they can to help but overall the individual staff members who are polite do not make up for the hotel flaws. The hotel is also dirty with mold growing all over the bathroom.

Nice stay in quaint hotel!

We had a very pleasant stay. The rooms and shower are a bit small but, everything else was great! The hotel was very clean, the front desk and help were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the outdoor swimming pool is not heated (some hotels/spas have heated pools) but, the indoor pool and steam room was nice. This hotel is centrally located between two towns and next to a park that was refreshing to walk through and was a short cut to one downtown shopping area. The breakfast area was very nice with many fruits, breads, and juice/coffee/teas. We enjoyed our stay!

Good hotel

The best thing of the hotel is the staff ready to help anytime, any question you have. Having the terms and spa facilities helpful on the site also. We went out of season so Ischia was not at its best!

Very nice hotel

The hotel and staff were very very good. However there are i or 2 changes that could make it even better. The bathroom in the standard room was very small and there was no where to place toiletries etc. Also immediately the 1st October came there was no eating breakfast on the terrace. My opinion on this that most tourists go abroad for the weather especially coming from the UK.

great location, friendly staff - awful hotel

The hotel was in a great location, very close to the the old town and the harbour so easy to walk around and see sights and evening wanders etc. The room was awful, the bed was the hardest bed I'd ever slept on (think of an ironing board) and the room was disgusting. It hadn't even been cleaned eg: the shower had grime on the walls and dead bugs in the corners, I felt like I needed to wear shoes to shower. It's a shame as the hotel had potential and the staff are friendly enough. I wouldn't recommend it for the price at all.

Lovely and chilled.

Really friendly and helpful staff. Pretty pool with plenty of loungers and spa facilities. Good location and views. As long as you don't mind the slightly laborious trek from Naples airport I would guess you couldn't find a nicer spot in Italy to spend a few days relaxing.

Beautiful Hotel on a Beautiful Island

The whole experience with Villa Durrueli, was good, from making the reservation to the arrival, to the say and departure. The hotel is crisp, clean and modern. I think it was recently renovated and updated. The grounds are well kept and it seems that the whole hotel is scrubbed clean everyday.

The rooms are small, but who spends a lot of time in the room when you are in Italy. We were a family of four, two adults and two teens, and we had to book two rooms, which was less expensive than booking the family style room.

While the facilities are good, it was the staff that made the whole stay worthwhile. They are lovely and a pleasure to deal with; always happy to help and for a conversation. The full breakfast, which was included, was great. I am willing to say it is probably the best breakfast I have had in a hotel in the past ten years. We never ate in the restaurant for dinner, but our friends who did said it was very good and they choose to eat there a few times. After the first day the wait staff remembered our coffee order (dopio machiatto) and brought them to the table when we sat down. That was a very nice touch and made us feel special.

Nice pool, clean and clear and really important when its 30C and sunny everyday. The pool side bar served good food and nice drinks.

Nice facilities but poor guest consideration.

Nice pool and spar areas but rooms too small and beds very uncomfortable.
Top floor rooms badly affected by having concrete roof deck and bar above premium guest rooms resulting chair scraping and banging late into the early hours of morning to say nothing of the full on loud music making conversation or sleep impossible; followed up by early arrival of loud Vespa's in the morning and clanging of church bells just outside.

Great Spa Hotel, but some rooms are very noisy...

The hotel is a very nice building. Not too far from Ischia Porto (the main harbor) and close to Ischia Ponte (where the Aragonesi Castle is located), a cosy town with some very nice restaurants. The Spa area of the hotel (a small swimming pool with warm water, steam room and kneipp path) and the outdoor swimming pool are great. You can have a decent continental breakfast in the terrace. The only one problem is that some rooms (the cheapest ones) are very noisy and you can hear everything happening in the rooms around. However the relationship between price and quality is pretty high, but only during the week. During weekends the prices are pretty high and it's not worth it.
