We've just returned from 14 days staying half board at the Hotel Villa Balbi and we were very impressed with the standards of service, accommodation and food. All the staff worked hard to make our stay enjoyable and problem free, particularly in reception and the dining room. We lost a jacket on the airport bus and the reception team called... More

The hotel is located close to the beach, the park in the back is nice, the old villa atmosphere is charming, our room in the old villa was large, classically furnished and really worth the money.

Stayed here for a weekend in july 2011. Room was nice, with air-condition, and a decent looking bathroom. This room had a sea view over the northern beach, which was very nice. Service in the hotel was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was nice, with fresh fruit, meat, cheeses, and decent coffee. More

Beautiful building, but that's not where rooms are located. Room was nice, bathroom old, on first floor rooms, dinner and breakfast guests are just across the window, in the garden; noise and reduced privacy! Beach is disappointing, lot of dirty pigeons walking around. More

Villa Balbi located in suberb location. Historical looking facade with lovely public areas and great garden breakfast area. Our room for 3 nights was far off in a wing and very, very sparse, but however very clean as well. Shower was extremely small and once inside could not move or bend over. But with all the sightseeing we did, it... More

The hotel is luxuriously appointed, spotlessly clean and the staff ver courteous, attentive and friendly. The interior design is beautiful and cleverly executed with many attractive features.
