Residenza Cardinale

Positive: Good location, clean and new rooms. Excellent breakfast in the bed, room service..

Positive: Everything! Best location, cutest room- spotless! Staff were wonderful, breakfast was perfect! highly recommend this beautiful stay. Negative: Nothing, it was perfect!.

When we arrived Isabella said we did not pay for the room, and wanted us to pay again. She proceed to yell at us over and over stating that we didn't pay but we had. After trying for a hour to show her we paid she still said we did not pay, and would not give us our room. We had to go get a room at a different location. Do not book with these people they are just trying to RIP you off. The reviews must be false, because she was very rude.

What a great place! Room was very nice with balcony, free wifi, fridge. Super friendly and nice host that prepared a very nice breakfast that we got served on the balcony. A bit hard to find among all the narrow streets.

Positive: Everything is perfect: location in historic centre, accommodation, check-in, breakfasts on the balcony, furniture and room layout. The room was enough spacious, clean and very comfortable. The breakfasts were so rich that we didn't want to eat more before evening. Wide variety of excellent restaurants nearby. Grazie mille per Isabella!. Negative: Everything is perfect..

Positive: We really enjoyed this b&b other than the bug problem. The b&b is very small with only a few rooms. Room was very comfortable. Good size bed. Good Aircon. Room was cleaned every day and new towels every other day. Isabella also lent us towels and an umbrella for the beach - which was great. Breakfast was really nice and plentiful. You complete a form everyday for what breakfast you want the next day. Options include fruit (lots!), croissants, yoghurt, omelette, cereals, bread, etc. Coffee wasn't very good. Location is excellent. 10min walk to the beach (down the stairs from the old town). Very very close to restaurants, cafes and bars. Loads of good restaurants in Tropea! But the room was well soundproofed and so we slept well. We had a hire car and Isabella advised us somewhere free to park, which was an 8mon walk from the property (and no stairs!). Overall we enjoyed our stay but expected, for the price we paid, not to have a problem such as the bugs.. Negative: Only real issue was our insect problem. Unfortunately on our first night, we found a cockroach in the curtains to the balcony! That unsettled us a bit but it scuttled off so we forgot about it. Then on our final night we found another cockroach in the bathroom and there were lots of ants coming in from underneath our door. We then spent a good amount of our evening trying to catch the cockroach (horrible!) And stop the ants from coming in by putting down bug spray. Quite unsettling and not a great sleep that night. Not sure why this happened, the room didn't appear dirty by any means - could be because of breakfast being eaten in rooms or because of the recent rain.. either way, very unsettling! We mentioned it to Isabella and she apologised but put it down to the rain.. One other small comment was that the shower door kept coming off its tracks and the shower temperature often fluctuated between hot and cold..

Positive: Central location, typical stone Italian building with character. 1 minute from the affaccio (Best view of Tropea coastline) and all the coffee shops/restaurants. Isabella is fantastic, very helpful and professional. I stayed in the deluxe room, room very clean, spacious with nice balcony. Room is very comfy with aircon and wifi. Good selection for breakfast (savoury and sweet). If I go back to Tropea I will definitely stay there again. Highly recommended.. Negative: Nothing everything was perfect..

Such a beautiful place to stay! The woman who owns the place is lovely and very caring! The rooms are very nice, very clean and the price is great for what you get! The location is perfect for exploring the town and going to the beach and the balcony is great for breakfast and even remote work! (Wi-Fi is perfect - never had any trouble while working). I can recommend anybody to stay there!
