“Value for money in Finale Ligure”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2005
4
people found this review helpful

The hotel is very well located, central, on the seafront and a short walk from the train station. My wife and I stayed here 10th and 11th Oct. The reception was very small and a little old fashioned but surprisingly our room with a balcony on the 5th floor was very large, recently renovated and nicely decorated. Usually it is the reverse, fancy reception areas and plain rooms! Like most Italian hotels at this time of the year, the airconditioning is turned off. We were lucky to have warm weather, so our room was a little stuffy. We had to sleep with the balcony doors open.

The hotel did not have a laundry service, but they kindly suggested that we could use their washing machine.

Breakfast buffet was OK, typical Italian with very few savoury items and mostly sweet stuff. The breakfast room was very nice with a view of the sea.

The staff were very friendly and helpful.

“Nice Hotel in Nice Area”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2005

My wife and I popped off the train into Finale Ligure on a Friday in Mid October. I had chosen the Medusa based on Web work but had no reservation. Because of a tour group, Medusa had only a "piccolo" room for Friday night and we took it. It was tiny but worked for us--it was the pigeons in the airshaft that were a nuisance. (Why is it not acceptable to kill all pigeons?) The next three days they moved us to a wonderful sea front room--more money but worth it.

The hotel staff was friendly, competent, and knew enough English to work things out in combination with our meager Italian. We took the bed and breakfast option and the breakfast food was of high quality. It was especially nice to have breakfast on the open, but covered, terrace that overlooked the promenade (provided we got down early enough to get one of those tables).

At the time we stayed, the largest group of guests seemed to be families from Scandinavia. The hotel seemed to cater well to families with young children. The children we saw seemed delightful and well-behaved--at least to grandparent aged people like us.

In all, the Medusa was a well-situated, clean, and pleasant hotel--and we felt it was a reasonable bargain for the money.
