We stayed here for one night on our way to Lake Garda. The hotel is clean and basic. The room was big with a smallish balcony overlooking the sea at the end of the road. The beach here is fantastic and stretches for miles and is incredibly clean. There are quite a few restaurants within walking distance but in Mid May they were just setting up for the season. The breakfast here is good - the usual continental. The only downside was that the air conditioing was not working and the pillows were hard but if you can live with that it would be a great place to stay.

We spent a one-night stopover here. The hotel was clean and basic. The breakfast was actually quite good, better than most places we stayed. Unfortunately the AC wasn't working when we were there so that spoiled the experience. We arrived late in the day, walked down to the public beach which is right at the end of the road. The beach was fabulous. I would consider staying again if they guaranteed the AC was working.

hotel prestige is located a 15 minute bus ride from pescara and the buses run every half hour along the seafront. it is over the road from a beautiful beach which was lovely and quiet when we were there but i get the impression it would be packed peak season. there are enough shops and restaurants within a 30 minute walk to keep you amused for a few days but the restaurants were winding down by mid september so it might be problematic off season. the hotel is decorated in a contemporary style and so no chintz which was nice. the room was pleasant but the matress and pillows were very hard and there was only a basic shower, no bath. lovely family running it but run in a slightly haphazard way. it's nice and informal which we liked but not very professional at times. we were given a free lift from and to the airport which was a nice gesture and saved us some hassle. it is excellent value but you do get what you pay for. nothing wrong with this hotel but no luxuries either.

If you have a car and you’re looking for an inexpensive place to stay near Pescara and near the beach, Hotel Prestige is a good deal. For 65 euros a night, our room was clean and modern, everything worked, and there was free internet in the room (if you bring your own laptop and DSL cord). We had an enormous balcony from which you could see the ocean, although it was a couple of blocks away. Breakfast was basic, but the lobby was attractive and there are tables out on the sidewalk to enjoy drinks or a game of cards. Parking was free and easy. Since we stayed only one night, we did not try the beach, but there seemed to be many places with chairs and umbrellas for rent. Hotel Prestige is near the south end of a long strip of large beach hotels – there are a few restaurants and shops, but not much else within walking distance.
