Claims they are 4 star but have NO Iron for guests. Beach is advertised as private beach for the hotel but beware it's NOT!. Swimming pool isn't run by the hotel and again, advertised as part of the hotel and it's NOT!. Extra fee required for pool and beach. Get your own toiletries as hotel provides 25ml shampoo/shower gel a day per person. It seems they are a super tight budget hotel. You are better off with an AirBnB since they provide literally NO SERVICE of their own. Breakfast: Enough choice but it's just basic for an acclaimed 3 or 4 star hotel. Goodluck sleeping on the rock solid beds. There are 2 venues just by it too who play super loud music 3 times a week usually till 3am. Either you join them, or no sleep. You are better off with an AIRBNB accommodation than this hotel which provides very minimal service. Most of their receptionist are rude and dont like to be asked questions. TRY ELSWHERE!

I stayed here for two nights at the end of an organised group tour. Room comfortable and clean but no remote control for air conditioning in room which was set too high for my comfort. I had to go down to reception and say what temperature I'd like and they controlled it remotely, Once turned on I again had no control over it and could not adjust it or turn if off ! Bizarre. Reception staff were helpful and friendly, and waiting staff were attentive. it seems to have a 1970s feel and needs a good repaint on the outside giving it a sad and faded aspect with its peeling blue paint. Breakfast was adequate but didn't care much for the evening meal on offer so ate out the next evening. My major complaint (which is no fault of the Hotel Sporting Baia itself ) is the noise from the night discos on the beach opposite and down the road and was kept awake to beyond 2am both nights . I was in room 103 on the sea front so would advise a room at the rear to get any sleep if you do have a booking which is why I didn't give a higher rating . I personally wouldn't stay there again by choice and was quite pleased to leave and catch up on much needed sleep.

Overall okay, the service and facilities were okay, the breakfast was good. But the cleaning was not okay and the cleaning lady left the door unlocked on several occasions. Which was very
unpleasant when you have all your luggage there.

A poor choice. Dilapidated rooms begging for an upgrade. Hotel surrounded on all sides by traffic noise. Dreadful breakfast. Please do not support hotels whose managment are running them into the ground like this. It's a disgrace. Look elsewhere.

The hotel is in a good location, but everything else is a disaster. The rooms are not clean,they do not change the blue blanket on the bed,the towels are not well washed. Very uncultured workers. From the reception to the cleaners who knock on the door and ask when we are leaving the room. Check-out from the hotel is at 10 a.m and not at 8:30 when the lady was at the door. Mostly everything is a disaster. Never again

The room is more or less ok, but bathroom there is No hot water and shower doesnt work. Covers on bad not exist. It was cold. Breakfast is very poor, no coffe, no eggs, juce... Winter time disaster
11.11.2024
Overall, the experience is OK, it is more suitable for vacation, the price/performance ratio is good, it is close to the beach, it is very convenient to go to the beach, but the facilities are old, especially the elevator, and there are not many types of breakfast
16.09.2024
Lovely hotel a little dated but clean and spacious. Impressive dining room with extensive choice of food for break fast. Effective staff who sorted any issues out quickly and professionally. Excellent view of the bay from the front and views of Etna to the rear.
03.09.2024
Very close (few meters by foot) from the beach, restaurants and shops. Bus stop approx 10mins walk away.
Very nice view from balcony on Etna, clean rooms, good cleaning ladies and receptionists.
Breakfast' quality average but many food choices to pick from.

Many in staff should quit or become serviceminded
Vi hade bokat 2st trippelrum.Vi skulle bo 2 pers per rum ,då chansade de att ge oss 2 dubbelrum.Vi påtalade att vi betalt trippeltum efter vi sett rummen och då fick vi rätta rummen.
Rent hotell ,trevliga städerskor.1 Jättetrevlig man som sprang runt o servade o skojade vid frukost,inte jättestort utbud men helt OK.
Liten kyl utan kylfack.Någon i personalen gav oss is,några ej.Vi fick inte ta större glas upp på rummen,fast det fanns 2 mindre glas i badrummet.Den ena i servicepersonalen/baren är direkt otrevlig , vi kunde låna karaff is o glas för serviceavgift 15 euro.
Strandparasoll o 2 solstolar 30-35 euro per dag ,kunde man köpa i receptionen med rabatt.Jämna pengar kontant,beroende på vem som stod i receptionen och orkade ge tillbaka,slutade ofta med att vi gick direkt till stranden oc betalade där för att slippa sura miner i receptionen.
Dagen innan vi skulle hem ,pratade vi med en trevlig i receptionen undrade vi om vi kunde ha väskorna kvar och någonstans att duscha ,utcheckning kl 10 ,vi skulle ge oss av kl 14:30.
Det var inga problem,vi skulle få nya handdukar o duscha i källaren.Vi blev förvånade att det skulle gå smidigt med något på detta hotel.Naturligtvis gick det absolut inte smidigt,när vi bad om handdukar stod ju den väldigt otrevliga i receptionen och tyckte att vi skulle behållt handukarna från rummet vi checkade ut,när vi sa att vi blev lovade dagen innan ,kunde vi få 1 handduk till 4 personer.Efter irritation tog receptionisten fram 4 till
