Lock in a great price for Hotel Porta Felice & Spa - rated 8.7 by recent guests.

to get started.

Lovely, smallish hotel in the Kalsa district which is much quieter than in the city center. What is terrific is that a block away there is a free bus every 15 minutes which takes you to the main areas. The hotel is beautifully decorated and immaculate. Our room was a suite yet very reasonably priced. The bathroom was huge with plenty of strong hot water. The service staff was excellent and very helpful with dinner suggestions. Nice breakfast and bar service. I really was very impressed with this hotel.

Amy, USA

The rooftop terrace for breakfast and dinner the first evening was excellent and staff particularly friendly and accommodating. Great breakfast buffet with all one could wish for. Location very good for getting tourist and town transport, and beautiful nearby square to relax in after tiring sightseeing

Helen, United Kingdom

Wifi was poor which was annoying. The staff on reception could have been rather more helpful concerning trips to sights etc - they seemed overworked and not always very warm. Fortunately we discovered an excellent little tourist office 3 mins down the road which made up for it.
The rooftop terrace for breakfast and dinner the first evening was excellent and staff particularly friendly and accommodating. Great breakfast buffet with all one could wish for.
