"Great stay on the boat, new, well equipped and fantastic terrace on the roof to relax and enjoy the gorgeous sunset in the evening. The boat is located in a small campsite with a small bar/restaurant and pool use for free. Friendly and very helpful staff. There is a water park close by and the lovely small town of Sesto Calende with shops, bars and restaurants is only 15-20 minutes walk away. Great short stay with the family"

Cagliari

"Byłam na Sissi Boat z koleżanką. Niech nie zmyli was nazwa boat and breakfast, chyba że śniadaniem nazywacie stare rogaliki i suchary, które leżą w koszyku nie wiadomo jak długo. Nie liczyłyśmy na luksus w końcu to łódka, jednak mogłoby być czyściej i schludniej. Łódka jest brudna na zewnątrz i zakurzona w środku, lata świetności ma dawno za sobą. W środku śmierdziało benzyną, a z łazienki szambem. W środku bardzo mało miejsca. Już na początku zostałyśmy poinformowane, że nie powinnyśmy nic jeść...

Top Italy Hotel Reviews

Hotel Pacific Roma

8/10 Good

"Staff was very courteous and helpful. We also enjoyed the breakfast."

B&B HOTEL Venezia Laguna

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and the restaurant food was wonderful for dinners. The breakfast was fresh and good although after 3 days of the exact same it was not as appealing. They had 2 singers who performed in the morning and evening. Sunsets were beautiful and location was close enough to central Venice but also a quite retreat away."

Hotel Isola Sacra Rome Airport

8/10 Good

"Hotel was amazingly clean, desk staff helpful at check-in. Room was clean and spacious. Only problem was when we arrived we had to take a taxi instead of the planned hotel shuttle from the airport. Having watched the YouTube video on where to meet the hotel shuttle, we arrived in plenty of time to catch the last shuttle of the night. My sister and I stood outside, along the blue metal fence area, door 4 waiting for the shuttle to arrive, only to see it whizzing by along a different lane, no where near the hotel shuttle area. The taxi line was well coordinate and a ride was arranged. Only disconcerting issue was the taxi driver did not have his meter running, on the dash or rear view mirror as all other taxis encountered during our Rome vacation. We arrived at the hotel after a very short ride, charged 45 euros ($50+USD) pretty steep, no receipt given. Seemed shady."

Trastevere Roma | UNA Esperienze | Preferred Hotels and Resorts

8/10 Good

"Our first time in Rome and glad we stayed here instead of city center. There are several restaurants and bars nearby and yet our room was quiet (which was much appreciated). Staff was helpful and rooftop bar was a nice touch for apertivo or night cap. Hotel smells lovely too Would stay again! Minor inconvenience: parking but we were directed to nearest parking garage. We tried to order room service two days in advance row but they never brought us the card to order in advance even when we went to the front desk to ask for one. Our room faxed the courtyard which I would’ve changed if we stayed more than our 2 nights bc I’m claustrophobic but it worked well for the quiet."
