San Michele

The photos of the hotel and room did not reflect the reality. The room (Grande Suite) was spacious but the furniture uncomfortable (except for the bed, which was very nice). The bathroom was small and awkward in layout. I would not call this a boutique hotel because, while it is in a very lovely locale, the amenities and attention by the staff were not at that level of luxury. One of the reasons we chose San Michele was that it advertised spa services through a partner property. Upon arrival, when I inquired about an appointment, I was told that the spa was closed for the season (mid-October). The staff member was not apologetic about the discrepancy nor did they direct me to any other option. We did not feel like welcomed guests in this hotel; the staff at the front desk as we were coming and going hardly looked at us or greeted us. Finally, the price was far too high for the accomodations and services received. Procida was very quiet at this time of year, and the hotel is situated in a charming nook on the island.

Very nice hotel and very friendly staff. We were warmly welcomed and there was always someone available via whatsapp to help with any issues. The room as such was beautiful, lovingly furnished and the sea view was fabulous. As there were only a few guests in the hotel at the time we were travelling, we even had breakfast delivered to our room. A highlight. An absolute recommendation.
