Hotel Le Querce

We stayed for a week bed and breakfast in October 2022 - we have travelled Italy extensively over the years, but never been to the Island of Ischia. Not normally package holiday people, but this time we booked with Tui, who then provided the taxi from Naples airport to the ferry port, the ferry crossing (under an hour) to the main port in Ischia and a meet and greet with a taxi at the ferry port, to take us to the hotel (a little over 5 minutes by taxi). The hotel is not far from the main port, for anyone who loves walking either up or down, it is a quick paced ten minute walk. There is a free shuttle service provided by the hotel, which you can reserve a place on, or you can buy a bus ticket from reception and take a local bus - the bus stop (either to the port or away from the port) is just outside the hotel. You can catch a taxi from the port to the hotel (we did this just the once) the standard rate is euro 15, although be careful to make sure you agree a price before getting in a taxi - you will be charged euro 20 to the hotel otherwise! The hotel has epic views, the location is beautiful, the staff so friendly and always helpful. The hotel is set on differing levels, the pool is thermal, there is lush planting around the hotel and there is of course the amazing bathing platform which is built out over the sea. You will have to walk all the way down (and back) to the platform by steps, but will be rewarded with an almost private bathing area, set with umbrellas, tables and sun loungers with steps down into the sea. The breakfast was buffet style, sitting in the dining room, overlooking the incredible views - everything you need, lots and lots of choice, including gluten free options for breakfast. Cereals, fresh fruits, an extensive choice of jams and marmalades, eggs / bacon, breads, cakes, croissants - you can order an omelette too. All very unhurried with courteous staff. We found lots of options in the port to eat out, the main shopping area is upmarket with a surprisingly large amount of shops to wander around. If your choice would be to stay in a typical Italian 4* hotel, then this hotel is highly recommend!

Our plans changed last minute and we had to find a hotel. I booked this hotel and hoped for the best. We were not disappointed. Beautiful location, amazing views and helpful friendly staff. We thoroughly enjoyed the thermal pools. Francesco, the bartender was wonderful.

We stayed 10 nights here in september and found the hotel to be just right for exploring Ischia and the surrounding area, Room 115 a little bit noisy early mornings as access is through the dining room/ restaurant but overall not bad, The staff were all really nice and efficient, especially bar manager Francesco, he had our Prosseco and Brandy ready and waiting each night after dinner, the food is of a very high standard and all the waiting staff did the hotel proud, free shuttle service down to the port for shopping / drinks etc, fantastic views over the bay from the pool deck and all in all a very well run hotel. would definately return and recommend.
