Grand Hotel Villa Balbi

Grand Hotel Villa Balbi

10/10 Excellent
"We were delighted by our stay at this hotel. The photos didn't really do it justice. The room (a junior suite) was generous and well maintained. While it isn't a modern hotel, it is very well looked after, and walking through the historic lobby and around the grounds is a joy. We thoroughly enjoyed eating breakfast in the immaculate and shaded garden - a wonderful way to start the day. The pool was also well maintained and not at all crowded. Location is excellent, with many restaurants and amenities nearby. Staff were excellent throughout - helpful and friendly. Highly recommended."
