Hotel from ipanema 🎶🎶

Stylish old world hotel with nice pool area on the roof - good breakfast and helpful staff. Close to cable car up to taormina or steps down to the beach. Lots of food options nearby - good value

Recommended but comes with some considerations

A bit outdated hotel but friendly staff, tasty breakfast, good rooms, nice location, great view of the area but a tricky parking situation. There are just a couple of parking lots on the property (back to back), so you need to hand over your keys so the hotel staff can move your car around when needed. Otherwise paid parking is nearby (250 meters) for 25 euros per day. We'd still recommend if the above isn't an issue for you.

Reception staff were very helpful and friendly. Hotel was very clean and tidy. No wifi in the room. No safe in the room. No fridge in room these were reserved for guests to keep medication refrigerated. Plumbing in the room was very noisy; sounded as if there was constant heavy rain beating against the internal wall. Maintenance was carried out on sunbathing terrace for 4 of the 10 days we stayed. This was very noisy and dusty.Balconies were also out of bounds during maintenance. We have no complaints about the staff but the hotel certainly needs money being spent to bring it up to date.

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.

Mycket bra personal. Rumet var dåligt. Myror på golvet, inget kylskåp och ingen kaffekokare. Balkongen var mot en bergsvägg. Hotellet låg bra till för strand och andra aktiviteter.

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.

Bra läge! Nära linbanan, strand och restauranger. Prisvänligt äldre hotell med trevlig personal, enkel frukost och en mindre pool. Stort plus för möjligheten att åka till Ipanema Beachclub med minibuss, pool och fin strand.
