Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at the hotel with a great view, but the noise from the terrace was a downside. The rooms were comfortable and had a nice view, but the facilities were basic. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff. The location was stunning, overlooking the valley and sea but had issues with overpriced wine. The dining experience was fantastic, especially with a view of the sea, but the price for wine was a downside.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of wonderful views and a cozy room but was affected by uncomfortable heat. The breakfast was a delightful experience with plenty of choices to enjoy, but the room temperature was a drawback that affected my overall comfort.
My stay at Hotel Graal was fantastic! The rooms are spacious, with very tasteful antique furniture, and larger than most in Italy. The service was top-notch, with the staff always on hand and incredibly helpful. The location is breathtaking, uphill but worth the view down the valley of the dragons. The dining experience was excellent, especially on the terrace overlooking the sea. Just be cautious with the premium prices at the on-site store selling wine.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and offered a lovely view in the mornings. The service was top-notch with helpful staff. The location was great, overlooking amazing views and just a 5-minute walk from the duomo. The dining experience was also enjoyable with fresh options. The facilities were well-maintained.
The hotel offers comfortable, clean rooms with a stunning sea view, friendly and organized service, superb location with a spectacular view, and a dining experience with plenty of tasty options. However, the dining is not exceptional, and the facilities are fine but nothing extraordinary.
