Ilayda Avantgarde Hotel

"A very centrally located hotel that offers an optimum confort. Great breakfast buffet with a lovely view of the marina. Friendly and professional staff. Cant go wrong"

"The hotel location is excellent - on the seafront and close to the port and the town. The hotel mostly seems to cater for tour groups and one night stays before cruises which makes the atmosphere very ordinary. The rooms are spacious except for the bathroom which was small. Obviously if you can get a seafront room, the rooms are probably beautiful, but most of the standard rooms are side or rear facing with no view or outlook to speak of. The counterpoint is that rear and side rooms are quiet. The rooms were very clean, but the beds while comfortable are strangely furnished. There was no doona (duvet) and no top sheet, just a bottom sheet and a blanket like cotton throw which barely covered the bed let alone 2 people sleeping in it. While a blanket was available in the cupboard, a blanket was too hot in September. This was the weirdest bedding ever experienced. You either expect 2 sheets and a blanket or a bottom sheet with doona (duvet) and sometimes a top sheet. They were also no glasses in the room for drinking water or anything else, yet there was an empty fridge provided. What is the point of a fridge if you cannot drink anything from a glass, The rooftop bar is nice, but hard to find staff when you would like an evening drink."

"Excellent hotel, best possible location, near to port and new marina, spotlessly clean, great room, comfy beds, nice powerful shower, fridge, delicious breakfast with very fresh food, nicely prepared and presented with good variety, do not miss the roof terrace with bar (8th floor) - lovely pool area with sunbeds, and at the bar, the very friendly barman made the best Negroni cocktail ever - all staff very friendly, but a special mention to Hassan, who showed us to room, and was very helpful and friendly"
