그랜드 호텔 엑셀시어(Grand Hotel Excelsior)

A business-friendly hotel which also caters well to independent travelers with a great location, helpful staff, large, well-appointed rooms, and an excellent restaurant (though there are also several excellent, more casual restaurants catering principally to locals within a 10 minute walk).

The hotel all in all was great. The staff were kind and accommodating. The room I booked(423) was a junior suite. But it had this funny smell when coming into the room. But it was nice and spacious and had a really expansive bathroom. We switched to the room opposite (401) and it had a great sea view. Especially love the curtains surrounding the bedroom area! And the blackout curtains were great if you want to sleep in. The bathroom in this room was not as large as the previous room but it was charming. The breakfast buffet had a lot of choices. But if you want hot food you need to pay extra. The air conditioning was not up to par with what I expected. It only goes down up to 22.5 and for me that’s still warm to have a cozy night’s dream. But that’s just me. It’s near the high street and the famous gelato shop! They do have siestas so most of the shops are closed from 3-7 pm. Try the ADDUMA restaurant near the hotel. It’s fantastic! The hotel’s restaurant looks fabulous during the night. And you can go out to the terrace and enjoy the wonderful sea view with night lights lovingly encompassing the Lungomare Falcomata.

Staff marvelous, hotel restaurant excellent. Across the street from museum of Bronzi di Riace and lungomare!

Older Hotel being renovated currently. Friendly and attentive staff. Location is ok, not great but there are plenty of hidden restaurants that are fantastico

There was construction and our balcony was non accessible. It was always dark in the room. Wish I would have known. Staff was great

The Grand Hotel was exceptional. The rooms were spacious and attractive. The selection of toiletries was the best we have ever seen. The hotel was just across from the museum. We had both an enjoyable dinner and breakfast at the restaurant.

Dark furniture, silk fabric on the walls, crisp white bed linen, but worn off towels and excellent service, that’s what we found here. Once you get to it, which isn’t easy, giving the chaotic nature of driving in Reggio, as in every other Italian city, they will park your car in their garage (€12 extra), send ice to your room upon request and make you reservation for dinner in the place of your choice, having recommended their own panoramic roof top restaurant, Gala (separate review). All in all a rather successful experience. **

Wonderful property if you are visiting Reggio. Very convenient to visit all the places in Reggio that are interesting.

Great staff, room, and location.
