Hotel Ipanema

酒店很乾凈，老闆是德國人很熱情。早餐很到位、游泳池一般

Great location, very old-fashioned decor and a bit drab. Breakfast wasn’t the best but all in all the rooms are okay and it’s very easy walk to the cable cart

Hotel situated in nice location, close to the beach, Isola Bella (be prepared for a lot of steps to get there) and the cable car. A few restaurants around the area. Pizza place is very expensive, portions are large though. The beach bars are more reasonable but close early. The hotel is a little rusti, but quaint. Rooms and beds are ok. All seem to have a partial sea view - very nice sitting on the balcony in the morning and evening. Rooms would benefit from a fridge, more cloth storage and tea/coffee making. Small fixes to make stay better. Beware rooms do not have Wifi. Reception is efficient. Christina is a font of knowledge about trips and will organise them for you. Staff are all very friendly and helpful from maintenance, restaurant and the cleaners. Food is a little limited. Breakfast is always the same. Meat, cheese, bread, cereal etc. Nothing hot unless you toast the bread. Evening meals are ok. But there is only limted variety. Nothing much if you don’t have a sweet tooth. Had to ask for cheese. Only got it once. Seemed offended if you didn’t like cake which I don’t. There is roof top terrace with a pool. Fantastic views. Nice to relax after wandering around the top (Taormina town). Lots of public transport to get around. Syracuse and Mount Etna were great. Sitting anc chilling in the public gardens, watch Etna was very therapeutic. Overall the stay was pleasant, with the staff being the best part.

Hyggeligt sted Hyggeligt sted, meget rent. Super venlig betjening. Rigtig god beliggenhed. Flot udsigt fra altan.

Wannabe 4 stjerner Hotellet er sådan set rigtigt fint, men det er bestemt ikke 4 stjernet, jeg vil nok give det 2.5 stjerner, personalet var søde og hjælpsomme og der var altid rent og lækkert, men badeværelset var gammelt og håndvasken stoppet, toilettet var svært at få trukket ud, morgenmaden var meget kedelig og ikke varieret. Hotel Ipanema er et gammelt og slidt hotel som ville have godt af en kraftig istandsættelse.

Hotel 'Lost in Time' in need of major improvements Very poor condition for what is supposed to be 4* hotel. So many things wrong with this place. To name but a few; toilet not flushing, fridge not working, shower at pool broken and no toilet. Pool not cleaned. Breakfast very basic no fresh fruit (but artificial fruit display on the breakfast table). Despite mentioning these problems nothing was done, instead I was reminded that the hotel was old. This hotel was clearly a lovely place to stay but that time is long gone. The only good point with the hotel was the view of Mazzaro beach from the balcony. Would have liked to give a nice review but so many things badly wrong here. You would do much better to look for a good 3* hotel before deciding to stay here.
