Fortezza Hotel

This was our fourth visit to the Fortezza. We were given a friendly welcome and allocated our requested room. We were also able to borrow a kettle from the reception and get pool towels. The rooms are a little on the small size, but who goes on holiday to sit in the room. They have a handy fridge, good air conditioning and a decent sized wardrobe. The superior rooms also have a balcony, we like the ones overlooking the street as we get shade late in the afternoon to sit and have a drink. The beds are also very comfy and we slept really well causing us to miss breakfast on quite a few days. There is a handy supermarket over the road selling most things you would require including chilled beer, wine and soft drinks. The breakfasts are good, but do not change, and have sufficient to fill you up for the day. As mentioned, if you do miss breakfast, the pool snack bar opens at 12 to 4pm. Here you can get bacon and eggs which we did on several days. The other snacks we had here were also good. The pool area is a big bonus in the old town area. There are sufficient sun beds and we never had trouble getting a bed or somewhere to sit. The pool was not too cold and a decent depth to swim. While we were here the temp was about 30 degrees, the pool area was a sun trap and it did get very warm, so the pool was great to cool off. The hotel is situated right on the edge of the old town and just around the corner from endless restaurants, bars and shops. The nearest being literally across the road. Highly recommended, we will be back next September !
