Savona Fortezza del Priamar Hotels

"The property was conveniently located near the port of Savona with easy access to many markets, shops, bars & restaurants all within a short walking distance. The rooms are clean yet small but adequate. Beds are comfortable. I did not eat in the restaurant as there many other options nearby. The staff was sometimes friendly & welcoming & other times dismissive & not engaged or concerned with guest satisfaction & not proactive in their response. The biggest challenge was the climate control system which is inadequate as it is controlled by the reception desk regulating the temperature in the room aka "eco friendly." The air conditioning system was not working & room was excessively hot & uncomfortable for the first night requiring a room change at which time I was downgraded from the booked superior room type to standard lacking amenities. When brought to the attention of management they were dismissive & did not accept any responsibility as if it was my doing. Which it was not. I would not stay again & would stay at another property of which there were many but outside & away from the convenience of being in the port. Guests must be able to regulate the temperature in their own rooms for many obvious reasons. This is a deal breaker issue for me me. In my many years of world travel for business & leisure I have never encountered this type of situation which indicates lack of basic guest comfort. "

"Large, comfortable and modern room. Large free parking around. Nearby supermarket, McDonald's, cafes and other shops. Delicious breakfast."

"Excellent place to stay in Savona. Easy walk or taxi to cruise terminal. Clean comfortable rooms. Special mention for the owner who is very friendly and can't do enough for you. Knows his football!!"

"Utterly charming, the apartment and especially the balcony made our stay in Savona absolutely wonderful. Also, our host, Luca, was gracious and drove us to the train station for an early departure. He also helped us down the stairs with our single luggage cart; a great help for a 77 year old couple. "

"Pros: Large apartment, close to shops and cafes. Cons: The sofa in the large room stinks of old age, it's time to throw it in the trash. It's hot to sleep with the windows closed because there's no air conditioning, and with the windows open it's a nightmare: the street is very busy, mopeds with broken mufflers are constantly driving and crashing into the sewer manhole, there's road noise all night long, and the facade of the house was being repaired in the morning, which the owner warned us about on the day we moved in. There are a lot of mosquitoes, and the window screens don't help. There are no instructions on how to sort the garbage. We still haven't figured out where to throw the glass."
