Hotel berhampiran Tombe ipogeiche, Porto Torres

Parliamo di stelle. Non quelle Michelin né quelle di Negroni: parliamo delle stelle secondo le quali si dovrebbe scegliere un albergo piuttosto che un altro. Il Grazia Deledda di Sassari ne ha quattro. Quindi, direte voi, è una garanzia di qualità, accoglienza e comfort, tale da rendere la prenotazione quasi una sicurezza. Ma non sempre è così. Iniziamo dal posteggio. Posti auto incastonati tra pilastri di cemento a rischio fiancate anche per guidatori esperti, tranne alcuni che fortunatamente abbiamo potuto utilizzare, ma per salire dal parcheggio alla reception c'è solo la rampa in cemento da percorrere rigorosamente a piedi, e considerando la temperatura torrida e una disabilità del 100% è tutt'altro che comodo. Se c'era l'ascensore, comunque, era mimetizzato talmente bene che non lo abbiamo visto. Quello dell'hotel, invece, era fuori servizio per manutenzione. Ci sta; ci hanno fatto usare l'ascensore di servizio. Nessun problema. La camera. Bagno non finestrato con aspiratore guasto e totale assenza di una modanatura alla quale appendere gli asciugamano del lavabo. Quella del bidet, per fortuna c'era. Un po' di incuria nei particolari (copriviti mancanti e tappetino doccia da mercatino rionale) che potrebbe passare sotto silenzio con una stella in meno. Ma qui le stelle sono quattro. Frigobar vuoto e (a quanto sembra) non funzionante. WiFi attivato ed erogato a singhiozzo, nel senso che a ogni pochi secondi di connessione ne seguono parecchi di disconnessione. La cassaforte in camera era chiusa e non voleva saperne di aprirsi. Chiamiamo la reception e ci mandano il tecnico che, a onor del vero, si dà daffare per rimetterla in funzione, ma la buona volontà contro la cattiva qualità difficilmente ha la meglio. Morale della favola: andiamo a cena (cena di lavoro, nota bene) e ci portiamo dietro lo zaino con dentro computers, tablet, eccetera, eccetera. Dieci e lode in comodità. Altre cosucce qua e là, tipo la rubinetteria della doccia incrostata di calcare, un telo da bagno macchiato (spero) di ruggine e il paralume dell'abat-jour rotto, ma non stiamo troppo a sottilizzare. Parliamo di stelle, dicevamo. Non di quelle Michelin né di quelle di Negroni. Parliamo di quella stella, fortemente immeritata, che l'Hotel Grazia Deledda di Sassari dovrebbe restituire con umiltà a chi gliela ha conferita, probabilmente in tempi non contraddistinti dall'approssimazione e, permettetemelo, dalla cialtronaggine.

Hotel sul corso principale di LuBagnu, a due passi da Castelsardo e vicino al mare. Molto pulito, quasi maniacale la pulizia( mi hanno richiamato per aver fumato una sigaretta alla finestra e l'odore , evidentemente era entrato un po' in camera) . Non è economico, si paga il giusto. I proprietari danno tutti i consigli giusti per un buon soggiorno. Note dolenti: le camere non sono ben insonorizzate e per dormire, specialmente se affacciano sul corso, bisogna tapparsi e accendere il condizionatore. La colazione, noi abbiamo fatto 10 giorni, buona per carità ma molto, molto, troppo ripetitiva.

My Wife and I stayed here for 9 nights from 8th July 2023. Having booked the whole trip Including transfers on EasyJet holidays we were whisked by private minivan from Olivia airport in a title over 90 minutes. We were greeted on arrival by a gentlemen who many others call out upon staying here - Ben who throughout our holiday was a credit to the hotel and so friendly efficient and welcoming as indeed were so many other of his colleagues. We were shown to the small Terrace overlooking the pool and gardens and welcomed with an upgraded room and two chilled flutes of. Prosecco. We stayed in the beautiful Superior Junior Suite - room 23, which is part of a block of three rooms down a steep slope from the Reception level. Our room, which housekeeping kept clean every day was large and fry almost like a “boathouse” in style with a wooden slopes ceiling, large double bed and walk in shower with Rainfall head. Our outdoor balcony have us a beautiful view down over fields and deep valleys to pretty Castelsardo village about 1.5kms away by road. If you decide against hiring a car, as we did, the hotel provides a free shuttle from 10 am to a local beach in a Bagnu. We paid the €10 per trip to into the town to meet a couple we know who were staying. Upon a quick phone call the hotel sent a car or mini van to take us home allowing us to visit so many other things including the Town beach in Castelsardo as well as a great snorkelling trip at The Se Project from the local port area. Both are worth checking out. We dined in the hotel on our first and last nights and ate beautiful fish dishes which the hotel specialises in. The in house Sommeliers are knowledgeable and will help you select from their varied wine cellars. Local Beers by the bottle are also available and can be served around the pool. Thank you to Tony who served us with a smile throughout our holiday. Saturday and Fridays are often busy in the restaurant with local couples and small groups coming for Dinner so worth reserving a table at Reception. Sunset was about 9 pm whilst we were there. Breakfast was a decent selection including fresh melon pineapple and other fruits, cereal, yoghurts as well as hot and sweet selections. Hot drinks and eggs (scrambled or boiled) or omelettes to order were always served with a smile by the ladies. As I said in the title this is a resort to kick back enjoy the views and relax in well appointed rooms and enjoy the food. Many other guests seemed to use the hotel as a base to explore the area. We also wen with our friends to a wine tasting at one of the many local wineries. The hotel even has its own Vines! The hotel is up a very steep slope and with no walkable path into town you should either budget for car hire or the hotel shuttle. The pool area is clean with a small Pool with integrated jacuzzi with two standalone whirlpools in the hotel grounds. Highly recommended Thank you to the whole team for a lovely holiday in the heatwav

We had such a great time here, awesome pool, large garden, olive trees. Well maintained. Staff super-friendly, restaurant has great food and is visited by locals regularly. Location is perfect, just north of Alghero, and next to the Airport (but no noise). This will be a recurring booking goong forward. Also enjoyed the wildlife, alpine swifts diving in to drink from the pool, large butterflies.

Pre-note: my reviews are always based on value for money. A 5 star hotel may have more facilities but may rate lower in my mind than a for eg 2 star friendly, more basic but clean accommodation. ....and that's where we start here. For the price tag, the hotel is clean, friendly, beds are comfortable, shower good pressure and as warm as you want it. In room ac and mini bar fridge. Brekki perfectly good (for italian hotel breakfast fare). Orange juice good quality and fresh (always a winner!) When faced with working later than planned on a so called day off..I found myself hungry and tired. The hotel restaurant saved my evening . Friendly staff. Good , hearty and tasty food, and totally not bothered at customers walking in at 21.30 to place an order. As hotels go this is a good find. Maybe not the best location if you want to be centrly based, but what you spend in a taxi fare you will definitely save in the room rates. It's also close to the Stadio Vanni Sanna..so should there be a concert there...its just a 5mins walk ... Good value accommodation .
