Stay at Elena!
Elena is small single room, With a small but adequate shower, it's a bit hard to maneuver in but was hot and clean. Everything spotless and clean, view was superb especially for price, nice laminate floors no icky carpet. Wifi drops out occasionally but you just have to renter username and password. Can easily hear neighbors with the marble floors so try and be respectful. Morning coffee and breakfast on the patio overlooking the sea was so pleasant.

Bellissima vista sul golfo e sul paese
Ho cercato un albergo confortevole con parcheggio per potermi muovere comodamente con i mezzi pubblici senza dover pensare all'automobile.
Colazione ottima e abbondante servizio efficiente. Lo consiglio senza dubbio.

Pleasant stay, but WiFi, bed & pillows: rated 2/3
We enjoyed our 2 night stay at hotel Elena to wast hours the fireworks very much. The real negatives were the mattress and the pillows that were awful and the archaic internet that required continuous signing on, at least 15 to 20 times a day!!!
The personnel rating between 3.5 and 4.5. Good job!

Hotel Elena - upeat näkymät lahdelle
Hotelli ylitti odotukset ja merinäköala ylimmän kerroksen huoneesta oli verraton. Aamiainen oli keskiverto italialaishotelliin verrattuna huomattavast parempi ja aamiaishuoneen terassilta oli mukava katsella lahden heräämistä uuteen päivään. Terassilla ei kuitenkaan kannata jättää aamiaista vartioimatta, sillä siivekkäät varkaat ovat silmänräpäyksessä paikalla, jos poistut hakemaan lisää kahvia. Huone oli tilava, siisti ja hotelli sijaitsee lähellä rantaa sekä keskustaa. Wi-Fi toimi katkonaisesti ja heitti ulos hetken jälkeen, jolloin piti kirjautua uudelleen verkkoon. Voin kuitenkin suositella yöpymistä hotellissa, mieleen jäivät erityisesti pimeät illat parvekkeella nauttien limoncinoa ja katsellen merta sekä Portofinon niemimaata.
