One of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. It reminds one of being transported into the 1920's, 1930's- with the evening 5 course meals, waiters in white tuxedos, piano bar in the evenings. It was just a magical place. I wouldn't bother going to any of the other restaurants on the island, as we tried one night and... More

We have just come back from 1 week holiday in Villa Ottone. It's a very beautiful place, great position near Portoferraio, Capoliveri, Porto Azzurro and all the beautiful beaches. The Villa is elegant, and very romantic at sunsets with the piano bar and great drinks. The restaurant is in the hotel building, which is behind the Villa, and is situated... More

We stayed 5 nights on Elba at Villa Ottone which somebody had recommended to us. The hotel is 5 star, we thought parts were 5 star and parts were more 4 star. The Villa itself is beautiful with a great terrace overlooking the bay and you can enjoy the sunset while sipping your cocktail. We stayed in cottages behind the... More

We stayed for 5 nights in the second week of June, in the Villa building in two adjoining hotel rooms and had a fantastic restful vacation. Full board is a greta value and you will not find better dining on the island. Our two duaghters 12, 14 have pretty complex food alllergies and the Maitre D' and Chef were fantastic... More

I went on honeymonn as my husband and I had just gotten married in Italy so we thought it would be good to stay on. After four wonderful days in Florence (Hotel Golden Tower) we continued onto Elba. When we arrived I didn't realise that it wasn't in Portoferraio at all...this could be my own fault though for not researching... More

We just left VO after a three-day stay, and we wouldn't return. The place was somewhat snooty, the heat was broken in our room and they couldn't fix it "at this time of year" (probably fifty-five to sixty degrees inside at night), the refrigerator was broken (they did eventually replace it after asking twice) and both the day and night...

My family and I only spent 3 days in this beautiful hotel and would have liked to stay for much longer. We were coming from a very negative experience at the Park Hotel Napoleone, the 4 star hotel near the Napoleon's residence, and were starving for some good service. Well, at Villa Ottone, we found it. The hotel is very... More

My husband and I stayed in the hotel for 3 nights in 2007. The hotel is beautiful en we had a really nice room with a sea view. The room was kept very clean and linen was renewed twice a day. Food was tasty with a good choice for breakfast and dinner. The hotel is quite expensive though. More

We were at the Villa Ottone in July 2007 together with our 2 kids, 5 and 3 years old. The place was nice, but I was very dissapointed to find out that the roooms would smell, were dirty and just too tiny for the high price!!! The only good thing was the food and the location, but you can get... More
