Hotel Trapani In

Nice hotel located almost next to the sea side. Unfortunately, as majority of old houses in Trapani it has no view other than into flats of people leaving in the opposite building. Therefore, it is very dark in the room due to the curtains. Building is literally squized with nano halls and nano staircase. So when your neighbours are e.g. loud Italians - you are somehow engaged in their quarrel till they kindly finish saying va fanculo to each other (based on true story!) The elevator is very slow, giving headache every time somebody from the upper floors needs to go down. if you're claustrophobic - this is not a place for you. Cleaning service was so so and the cosmetics were not refilled totally, same as a tea for clients. Typical Italian breakfast - mostly sweets. Now, the positive things: very nice and very helpful assistance, good quality of rooms /quite new, modern styled, no scent of mold/, very close to the sea shore and to the historical parts of the city. Desk assistants speaking English, so no issues with basic communication etc., which in Italy is a great asset. For 2-3 days it is a great shot to take, provided you're aware of the disadvantages mentioned above. Overall, knowing Italian style and habits, I was pleased with my stay there.

Very welcoming staff and the room is newly refurbished. Great location by port and easy walking to local sites. The breakfast is pretty good too considering most continentals. I would definitely consider it a continental plus. Parking is a bit iffy but you could park in a parking garage nearby or there is a street that has free parking just a 5 min walk down the road which we did and our vehicle was fine. Highly recommended!
