Ottima struttura nel cuore della città a 50 mt. dal Museo Archeologico (da vedere), colazione abbondante e raffinata ma la chiica sono state le varie scelte di granite (ottime), vista sullo stretto e sul corso di Reggio; personale educato, professionale e simpatico. La cucina stupenda, ho pranzato e cenato in due occasioni in quanto dopo due giorni ci sono ritornato con la famiglia, mi sono complimentato con lo chef ed il personale di sala, tutto veramente molto molto buono, direi dippiù. Voglio spendere una parola per il responsabile alla reception per la sua cortesia e disponibilitò, credo si chiami Giuseppe, comunque una parola a tutto lo staff... complimenti...credo che se ritorno a Reggio Calabria sarà la mia meta...grazie

Un piccolo appunto alla pulizia dei bagni

Perfect location next to the waterfront and museum, walking distance to harbour and all shops

Not very modern

clean, very friendly & helpfull staff, the restaurant was perfect and on the roof with a good view

location was good

undergoing refurbishment with exterior of the building covered with sarong and windows boarded up with no view

the location was convenient

we could hear everything from the room next door (conversation/TV…). no eggs for breakfast. only extra. just remaining cheese rind in a plate for breakfast at 8:30. no more fruit … when we asked for an advice for a restaurant in the neighbourhood, the person at the reception just told us to go to the restaurant of the hotel…

The restaurant was amazing!! Best food ….

Great location, 2 min walk from the train station with an amazing view on the coast. Room was very clean, friendly and professional staff, keen to accommodate specific requests - special thank to Emanuela for her service and recommendations. I'll definitely recommend it to those who want to enjoy the city center - shops and restaurant are all located by 5/10 min walk - as well as the Museum and beach clubs on the coast.

The room in the Grand Hotel Excelsior was was clean, spacious and well appointed. There was a large desk with good wifi but only one easy chair. The breakfast buffet offered a wide choice and food could be cooked to order. The restaurant produced excellent cuisine which was delivered by courteous, friendly and efficient staff. It was a pleasure to dine in the restaurant in the evening. The restaurant was on the fifth floor and had panoramic views of Sicily and on a clear day, Mount Etna. The bathroom was fine with a jacuzzi bath. All the hotel staff we encountered were well trained, competent and pleasant. The Museum housing the famous Riace Bronzes was only a few meters away. This was the reason we visited Reggio Calabria. Since we were travelling by train being near the railway station was an important factor in choosing this hotel.

The hotel was being refurbished during our visit. Consequently is was totally enclosed in scaffolding and plastic sheeting. This made the building very difficult to find. It was once a grand hotel but was old fashioned and certainly needed to be upgraded when we visited it. It is still a very good place to stay.
