Loved it here. Rooms were basic but clean. The pool area was amazing!!! Several pools and all were kept nice and clean. No bugs no mosquito bites.

Breakfast was wonderful options along with great service!

I did have some wifi issues on the 3rd floor but they moved me to the 1st floor. They said there were some issues beyond their control that few days.

Great location for restaurants and transportation!!

Would definitely recommend and I would love to come back.

Family owned and service was great. Very friendly and helpful!

We selected Samiramis as a bit of a splurge to recover from the marathon travel day from San Francisco. The staff were very helpful with arranging the airport transfer and early check in. The property was beautiful, with 4 thermal pools and wonderful views. We had thought we might have a day at Poseidon just down the road, but we enjoyed Samiramis so much, what was the point? We were certain we had made the right choice when we ran into the crowd leaving Poseidon at the end of the day and did not see a single smiling face. We could barely contain our own smiles in the paradise that was Samiramis. Top marks for the staff, the pools, breakfasts, cafe, landscaping, the room, location, nearby dinner options, convenient bus stop. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Good check in, but reception area is very hot, and mosquitoes are waiting for you to step in to feed on you!
Picked ocean view room (#301) very clean! Furniture Needs to be updated. Shower small. Bring your own shampoo and conditioner as they don't provide.TV very small and the remote didn't work. Breakfast is not many options and not many choices. Service was good.
The 3 thermal pools are nice and relaxing. Clean premises. They alternate jets in between pool (i think to save energy)
The last day we checked out but remained for a few extra hrs . They charge an extra €15 per person to use their premises. They don't provide a room for you to shower and change. You have access to the pool shower (outdoor) and to change they provide portable cabins. Very uncomfortable process.
When we left, one of the workers ran after us for €29, which we paid cash at the bar as we were already checked out. Even though they made a mistake, it was incredibly offensive and embarrassing to be chased down the bus station.
Overall it was a good experience. Just a few little things that would improve the hotel a great deal. I guess that is the reason it's rated a 3 stars.

Everything was extraordinary little piece of paradise. If I could offer one piece of feedback, it would be that I think the age rules were too strict for the thermal pools.
My son is 14 and was only allowed to use one of the pools and when I visited some of the adult only thermal pools I saw other people his age in the pools. I felt bad that my son was not able to join me.

False advertising re pools

Incredible garden, great breakfast, beautiful views, helpful staff in terms of arranging rides. But I would not stay here again. The pools are heavily advertised with models without swim caps, which are required. I understand there's a cultural difference here, but also can't find a legitimate reason for this rule. The AC is only powered from 2pm-9am and the unit in our room didn't actually work even when powered. Tiny shower, ratty towels. Janky furniture, doors, and locks.

A Charming Gem!

This is a wonderful and charming hotel.
It has four thermal pools. The room was beautiful with views of the ocean and the gardens. The breakfast buffet was wonderful wonderful. The air conditioning was perfect and strong. The location is outstanding near the Poseidon and near top restaurants across the street. The beach is directly across the street. The staff and the owner were wonderful. I love this place so much

Our first time visiting Ischia and we booked a stay at this charming hotel. It’s located about 25 mins from the main port as we took a ferry from Sorrento. This unique hotel has several relaxing natural thermal pools all different temperatures. It was amazing to sit in the pools especially during sunset drinking an aperol
Spritz! The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and roomy enough. The only thing is the rooms did not come with any shampoo or conditioner, so that was inconvenient because I didn’t pack any. Also you need to bring your own pool towels or you can rent for $3 euros and because of the thermal pools you need a swim cap or buy one from hotel for $2 euros. Another thing to note that the taxis are quite expensive in Ischia and I recommend having the hotel book them as it saved us money. All in all, I would stay here again.

We booked this property because of its proximity to Ischia's Poseidon Spa - but the four (4) pools on the hotel property were so wonderful, we never left! This is a friendly, family run, hotel with exceptional service in a great location. The decor and tiled floors in the rooms are colorful artsy local decor and the breakfast buffet is terrific. We expect to return to the hotel often and are giving 4 stars instead of 5 because the bed was as hard as concrete making it impossible to get comfortable. So, while our daytime experience was fantastic, the nights were a little rough!

Great if coming for the thermal pool, Poseidon

Stayed at an ocean view room. *Pro: Tranquil and beautiful. Not a hotel but rather home-like feel. Reminded me of Hawaii. It was located at a walking distance from one of the best thermal pool park, Poseidon. *Con: it should’ve offered more for $230/night room. the room was smaller than the pictured. No batteries in the remote. Pool towel is charged (€4/towel).

The entire property was beautiful. Lots of beautiful flowering plants, palm trees, and cacti. The 4 pools are also amazing - very clean and with different temperatures and massaging jets. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and nicely decorated. Breakfast was also excellent. Five minute walk to Poseidon and several good restaurants. Also right across the street from the beach. I highly recommend this hotel.

Good thermal pool on site, as well as being very close to Poseidon thermal park and Citara beach, while still being nicely secluded. Good breakfast (and a few lunch choices) with a handful of restaurants nearby. A little too far to easily walk to Forio, but regular (if sometimes very full) buses available.

Gorgeous hotel with multiple pools, lush greenery, and great location steps from the beach! We had a relaxing and wonderful two night stay, and never even made it to the nearby large thermal pool park because the pools onsite were so perfect. Spacious room, lovely breakfast, easy to/from the ports via bus.

Beautiful hotel in every way

we stayed at The Semiranis for 4 days. It's a lovely place. Lush exotic gardens surround a thermal pool. Our room had a fabulous view of the sea, large with antique furniture and local tiles. Every inch is sparkly clean. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and organised my husbands scuba diving and hiring of a scooter plus charged our mobile phones for us. Will definitely be going back.

A beautiful oasis

I spent days even weeks trying to book a hotel on Ischia. At the last minute I changed hotels and booked Hotel Semiramis because I wanted to be near Forio because of recommendations that this was the side of the island we should be and because I wasn't going to make my mother walk too far! I was right to trust my instincts. This charming, family run hotel, 5 minutes from the beautiful, clear, sandy beach as well as the extraordinary Poseidon had everything we could possibly want including the large volcanic heated swimming pool that you could dip into before breakfast, which incidentally was one of the best hotel breakfasts I have had, beauty treatments and massages at a very reasonable price, and outside space in an exotic garden created by architect, artist and owner of the Semiramis to play a game in the evenings with a glass of beautiful Ischian wine from the bar before walking 2 minutes down to the beach again to eat in one of six or seven incredible and not too expensive restaurants popular with Italians and foreigners alike. So great was this hotel and so enchanted by Ischia we have become that we have sworn to return next year.

Nice hotel but area not great

The staff were lovely throughout but we were disappointed when we arrived at the hotel by the area around. The cafes and restaurants in the area looked really tacky, not helped by lots of areas taped off where works may or may not have been happening. The walk up to the hotel is also not inspiring. The beach area is not that big and mostly taken up by private beach owned by the water park or the cafes. There is a small area of public beach that isn't very inspiring. You can walk into the town which takes about half an hour and is much nicer though the walk isn't that great in itself. Nice views of the sea but slightly depressing string of houses and closed restaurants along the way. The room was fine, the shower was good and it was really quiet except for the last night when fireworks were incredibly loud. The pool is very pleasant, we hadn't expected it to be a thermally heated pool but that was a nice change from the sea. There is no restaurant at the hotel but the breakfast was very nice with lovely views from the room. We got the public bus to the hotel which was packed and quite an experience but the hotel arranged a very easy transfer back to the airport which was far less stressful with luggage.

Close to Poseidon, no soundproofing

We choose this hotel because it is five minutes walk from Poseidon.
The rooms on the top floors are old-style, which means that you will sleep with door open (and fan turned on).
That means that you will hear your neighbors returning late and talking.
I recommend using silicon earplugs.
Mattress and pillows are very firm.

Lækkert hotel som lever op til sine 3*

Vi havde 6 nætter på hotellet. Et lille hyggeligt hotel med 4 store pols, hvor tre sf dem har jacuzzi funktion /hydromassage.

Hotellet ligger på bjergskråningen og er omgivet af den smukkeste have og har fantastisk udsigt.

Et par små ting på minussiden:

De skriver de har motionscenter - det har de ikke.

Man skal betale 3 EUR for at låne et håndklæde til poolen og hver gang man skifter det.
Meget lavt vandtryk - bruseren er lidt svag.
Lidt begrænset morgenmad (skal betale for friskpresset juice og hvis man vil have bacon).

Plussiden:
Smukkeste beliggenhed
Sødeste personale
Store værelser
Balkan eller terrasse
Tonsvis af solstole

Vi havde nogle virkeligt gode dage.

Un posto incantevole sia per la posizione sia per il contesto. Direi non soddisfacente il comfort delle camere e la qualità dei servizi
(In camera) però il parco con le stupende piscine ed il panorama ripagano queste mancanze.
Consiglierei ai proprietari con piccoli accorgimenti di poter dare un immagine diversa anche per le stanze.
Penso potrebbe essere tranquillamente un hotel 4S

Superbe séjour dans cet hôtel situé à Foria, au calme, parfait pour des vacances relaxantes.
L'hôtel est à quelques pas de la plage de Citara et des thermes de Poseidon. Il est très bien entretenu et soigneusement décoré. La piscine est magnifique avec toujours de nombreux transats disponibles, elle est entourée d'une végétation luxuriante qui en fait un petit paradis avec en prime une source thermale naturelle qui l'alimente à plusieurs reprises dans la journée, parfait après une après-midi à la plage ou une journée de visite.

Wunderschöne Tage auf einer traumhaften Insel in einem Hotel, das in wahrstem Sinne eine Oase war - nicht nur wegen der Palmen und der tropischen Bepflanzung, es war auch eine Oase des Friedens... wunderbar ruhig, trotzdem nur einen \"Katzensprung\" vom Meer und verschiedenen Restaurants und Geschäften entfernt. Ein unaufdringlicher, guter Service und eine sehr herzliche Leitung eines Familienbetriebs, die auch im Krankheitsfall sehr persönlich geholfen hat und damit unseren Urlaub \"rettete\".
