This hotel is a real gem, absolutely special in so many ways. The setting is stunning - even the best photographs can't fully do it justice - looking out to the Bay of Naples and framed by a stunning umbrella pine over the gorgeous outdoor pool, which is heated by natural thermal springs. While the rooms are large and comfortable, with excellent daily room service, and the breakfasts are great with plenty of choice, what really makes Le Querce is the staff. All of the team are friendly and efficient and warm and always keen to help, and even appreciated our poor efforts to speak some basic Italian. However, the standout mention for us has to be the head bartender Francesco - who is so much more than this, really he is like the heart of the hotel. He was incredible, so warm, friendly, helpful, entertaining - the list could go on but he is worth coming to stay here alone, it really felt as if we had made a friend in him. It goes without saying that he makes a fantastic drink too, as does his team, whether a Negroni or a Dark and Stormy. Diana on reception was also lovely. We had fantastic massages in the spa and explored lots of the island. This is a great hotel to have as a base because it's easy to walk into Ischia port or if you'd rather, there is a bus stop right outside the hotel, which can take you anywhere around the island in really not much time. A real highlight was the beautiful private jetty into the sea - 260 steps down and then back up but worth every step for the beauty and seclusion of it. Absolutely magical place to stay, we loved it. We will definitely come back.

We loved everything about this hotel and the views are fabulous. We had a limited sea view room and the views were great. The pool was warm and there was always plenty of loungers, both in the sun and shade and there’s a lovely poolside bar with a friendly bar man. We also enjoyed the indoor spa with warm pool and steam room. The hotel was clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was brilliant with so much choice of a wide range of food. We only ate there one evening and my husband said it was the best steak ever. For me, a non-meat eater, not as much choice but it was reasonable. The hotel has over 260 steps to the beach with bathing platform, the sea was amazing but the beach itself was very small. It is a 15 minute downhill walk into the town with wonderful views. The town has lovely shops and great restaurants with a large beach to the end of the town. We caught the local buses a few times which was an experience in itself. Frequent buses go past the hotel and we had wonderful days at Poseidon Thermal Gardens and La Mortella Gardens of which we would highly recommend both. All the staff were exceptional but in particular Diana who was perfect. We saw Diana every day and she was helpful, friendly and always had a smile. We were on a TUI 2 part centre holiday and Ischia included a ferry ride and all the transfers were efficient. We would not hesitate to visit this hotel again.
