location was ok, staff at the breakfast was nice
as we checked in, nothing was explained. Neither at what time the vreakfast starts or where the breakfast is located. Also nothing else was explained, we did not know that we can rent a biciycle at the hotel. In my opinion is it very rude to „welcome“ guests like that
7.0
Property was quite comfortable and nice
Good lay out outside with the lounge chairs and possibility to have drinks or your breakfast there
Room decent size for a short stay
No own laundry facilities
Very small shower, would have done it a bit differently if it is a room that needs to fit 4

Hotel La Bussola is in a great location and the host(s) are so helpful and friendly. They accommodate all of your needs and always help answer questions. The breakfast was perfect each day and dinner was very good as well. The pool is a great place to relax for an afternoon. We enjoyed taking the bikes to the beach club and spending the day at the beach club. We also brough our own (rented) road bikes and we had no problems keeping them secured while we were there. I would definitely come back to this location, as it is nestled perfectly between the beach and the mountains. The grounds are very well maintained.
Although the rooms were a little small, I would still return, but know to rent 2 rooms for our family.

I loved the grounds. It reminded me of Hawaii. It was lush and inviting with many comfortable outdoor seating areas. The pool was wonderful as was a play area for small children. The breakfast was very good. Beds were comfortable.
I think the hotel could improve upon their dinners. Maybe a more varied menu.
9.0
The room was clean and comfortable. The restaurant service is superb.
I'd say that the location is a bit far away from the beaches but they offer bicycles service at the hotel.

The property was very clean, the breakfast was delicious and the pool was excellent. The garden was very green at the beginning of August to our pleasant surprise.
The room was a little to small for 3 people but the beds were very comfortable.

9.0
Everything was great and above expectations, particularly the owners and the staff, always willing to give advice and going above and beyond to fulfill guests specific needs (i.e. specific requests at breakfast).
Garden and big pool are great, perfect for kids/families. Location is quiet, but also easy to reach the beach etc. Free bikes are offered to guests to get around - no need for car! Free parking.
Everything very clean.
The room is a bit small (big bathroom) and ours didn't have a balcony, but we didn't stay inside much, as outside was so welcoming, including the terrace.

Nice hotel, very clean and quiet, friendly staff and a delicious breakfast. The pool was very clean too, surounded by a beautiful garden.
8.0
We just stayed in this hotel for 1 night, but everything was fine.
Pool, garden were nice as well as the staff who were also very helpful.
Breakfast was not buffet, but you could choose your own. The choice they gave you was more than enough.
The room did not have a balcony, but except for that nothing to complain.
The breakfast/diner room inside was not cosy, outside looked better. But that's just a personal taste.

Ok, it is not 5 star but who need it? Very friendly staff, youu feel like a member of their family, a very clean pool, a perfect breakfast in corona times, table tennis, table football are really funny. Quiet in a toscany forest. Finally, a wonderful kitchen, do not search any restaurants, the hotel is the best…
Everthing was perfect. The only thing is (we requested so) the rooms with balcony is a little bit small for a family with four members.
6.0
The garden is very lovely, lots of place to chill. The breakfast is very extensive and can be consumed outside in the garden, perfect way to start your day.
Very little information given when you arrive. Everything going from wifi password, to breakfast timing, menu for the evening (and what time it was served), how to borrow their bikes, how to rent chairs on the beach, where to find that beach club (the hotel is partnered with one as the hotel isn’t at the beach) is to be figured out by yourself.
The rooms can use some renovation, and staff levels of English aren’t on par which makes it difficult to communicate sometimes.
All in all an okay hotel but I would expect a bit of a lower price.

- The staff is amazing, very kind and will help you when needed. For example they brought us to the trainstation when we were leaving. Also when I needed something from a shop at night but it was to far by bike, one of the staff members brought me there.
- The breakfast is super good, with lots of choices. Would recommend the chocolat croissant.
- amazing pool, very big and clean.
- Nice garden around the hotel with lots of places to hang out. They even have a ping-pong and fussball table.
- Another big plus were the bikes you can use for free. Tip: bring your own bicycle lights.
- They change the towels everyday, you can even take them to the pool or beach.
- We had a room for 3 people, it was quite small. (don't know about the other rooms). The beds are very hard for my opinion. However when there is a lot to do and the weather is nice outside you only sleep there so you don't need all the space.
- Would recommend to have a car while you stay in this hotel.
10.0
Friendly and courteous staff with basic understanding of English
Rooms are clean, AC works fine, WLAN is ok, Bed is ok
Due to Corona pandemic there is no breakfast buffet but guests get a list (English, German, Italian, French) where they can tick what they want to have for breakfast - after 5-10 minutes your breakfast is served on the terrace - breakfast is ok
Nice pool area where you can relax and go for a swim
Bicycles for rent free of charge - very helpful if you want to go to the beach or out for dinner (you can also walk but taking the bicycle is better) - however, some bicycles need some maintenance
There is little to complaint - one thing has to be mentioned: There are lots of mosquitoes day and night outside at the pool, in the garden or on the terrace. The hotel provides free Autan and there are "Anti-mosquitoes-candles" on the terrace but that does not keep the mosquitoes away...
