The San Francesco is perfectly located in the old town (with short term parking nearby and longer term parking 5-10 minutes pleasant walk away). The old convent building is lovely. The reception is friendly. The rooms however are rather monastic "cells", cool, not very romantic with tiny windows. Breakfast is a bit limited too, although lovely to enjoy it overlooking... More

San Francesco is in the middle of the very pretty old town of Alghero, yet incredibly peaceful. The rooms are fine, spotlessly clean and we didn't find the beds particularly hard! But the greatest assets of the hotel are: its location within the church/monastery - breakfast is taken on the first floor of the cloister and this area is open... More

Very convenient location in the heart of the old town of Alghero. The rooms are modern and well equipped. Friendly staff. Breakfast in the monastery's courtyard. When we were there in late july of this year there was a concert with classical music in the monastery's courtyard. Absolutely wonderful - we have never before experienced such an acoustic. As we...

Great in-the-town center location-- we enjoyed a night in this pleasant, friendly and comfortably unique experience in a modern renovated monastery. We only booked at night when we read the beds were hard in other reviews, but in fact, they were standard compared to other beds we stayed in as we stayed out of town on other nights--springy yet firm....

This is simply a fabulously unique place to stay. It’s actually part of the old monastery/church and the ambience and calmness is evident. The rooms are simple and so is the breakfast but that’s reflected in the price but it is well worth the stay just for the experience. If at all possible try for a room overlooking the internal...

This hotel is in the heart of the old town in a brilliant central location. It's also conveniently very close to the main bus terminal. The rooms are very basic and the beds are uncomfortable. The hotel has a lot of charm and the breakfast is fairly decent - served in the cloisters.

Right in the middle of the old town of Alghero where all the small streets that almost doesn't fit a small Italien car! Can only give my best to this hotel. We went there without kids. Was surprised that we had to buy sun lotion! Lovely food at the restaurants in the city. Breakfast was okay - maybe not that... More

Really lovely hotel in centre of Alghero old town, adjoining a beautiful church and minutes from the sea and everything the town hasto offer. The staff were friendly, courteous and helpful, like most people we met in Sardinia. The rooms were basic - no tv, hairdryer (eek!) or tea-making facilities, all of which I didn't mind - but the bed... More

Hotel San Francesco is in a great location. It is a clean and comfortable hotel. Very simple breakfast of croissants and coffee. Couple staff members seemed a bit cranky, but we loved Marco, he was always helpful with a smile. I recommend:)
