We've just had a wonderful week at the Terme di Augusto. We had been expecting something less than perfect after reading one of the earlier reviews posted here, but were very pleasantly surprised by what we found so wanted to put the record straight.
The hotel itself has excellent facilities; three pools, all warm, including one that's thermal. It was a real pleasure to be able to lie in the luxury of a thermal pool and feel the water doing you good.
The staff were helpful and efficient and most spoke English and tolerated with benign amusement my halting efforts at speaking Italian.
The breakfasts were more than adequate, with plenty of cereals, fruit juices, delicious yogurt, breads, croissants, cheese and cold meat. The only thing we missed was fresh fruit. The evening meals were good, with a very fine selection of mixed grilled vegetables for hors d'oeuvres every evening followed by a choice of starters and a choice of main meals and puddings. The service was always courteous and efficient.
Lacco Ameno is a charming place and the hotel is placed right at the heart of it. If the hotel was as poor as that previous review claimed then it has changed beyond all recognition. We had an excellent week there, and not just because the weather was perfect.
