Breakfast outside on the terrace was lovely, and with good service. The dinning room was well run and organised with well presented and tasty food.
There were very few other British people staying at the hotel and it made it feel all the more authentic with everyone friendly and most made an effort to communicate in some way. The room was large, very clean and had good storage, good bathroom and shower and fantastic views which we paid extra for but it was certainly worth it, only grumble was the size of the balcony which was on the narrow side but perfectly functional for our needs.
CONTOUR DAY SPA HARD ROCK HOTEL HOW TO
we enjoyed the novelty of the 15 different pools and different temperatures which were absolutely gorgeous and set in a lovely well kept, and very well thought out environment.This hotel knows how to make you feel total relaxed and away from it all. This hotel knows how to look after its customers and really succeed in making us feel relaxed, spoiled and welcomed.The staff were hardworking and friendly with nothing too much trouble.
The hotel is partially wheelchair accessible ,as there are a couple of rooms that can be used confortably a person who is able to take a few steps with crutches, as well as access the pools and dining rooms. Try it to beleive it! The only complaint we have to make is that we found the beds too hard. The Romantica has an excellent health and wellness and beauty spa, with their own products and thermal mud for treatments. (strange as it is) to have these thermal founts gush up through the vocanic rocks to the surface where it is canaled into the pools. I think that most Brits no longer have a knowledge of the wonderful thermal waters of this volcanic island, the only one in the Med. Ischia used to be a popular destination for the English whose presence is much less now, while Capri continues to be a very popular resort place. When booking, make sure that you let the hotel know if you find stairs a problem, as some of the rooms in the upper section have quite a few stairs, but the reception will accomodate any request you might have-just let them know your needs. There is a bit of up and down hill walking to get to the variouse parts of the hotel, but for anyone with difficulty, the large golf carts are always on the ready. Most have big terraces and balconies and wonderful views. The rooms and suites are all different from one another, as the contours of the huge slopping gardened property dictates the various positionsof each. Besides loads of only-fresh sea food, there are all the usual southern Italian specialities such as aubergines and zucchini in all forms (the dinner starter bufé is incredible) the rest is served at table by fast efficient waiters. Even better than previously, as they have a younger more innovative chef. If you wish to combine a sea and a wellness spa vacation, with vistas over the sea and hills and the quaint small town of sant Angelo, the Romantica, set in its very own spacious thermal park, is a true find! The cuisine is excellent, varied ,plentyfull and very well cooked. their therapeutic effects are fantastic and well documented from Roman times when Ischia was already well known. This Hotel has 13 pools all cooled down to various temperatures ranging from 32 to 42° as the waters come up from under the sea at around 90°. The gardens are a tropical delight, with bright coloured bouganville and hybiscus and other similar flowers, as well as the scores of mature palm trees of various types (reminiscent of Hawaii) Anyone who has been to, and loves Capri, will find the position of the Romantica on a slope overlooking the lovely bay of Sant Angelo, very similar to that island, but with the added bonus of the heath-giving sea-thermal waters that are unique to Ischia. The pools continue to be splendidly well kept up, clean and at the prescribed temperatures. We have been back to the Romantica twice since my first review in 2009, and I want to underline how continuously excellent this hotel is from every aspect.
