The Accommodation

This older style hotel is full of character yet well maintained and decorated. It is possible to see the harmony between the Gothic Catalan and late Renaissance architecture. The Roman cloisters built in sandstone are a particular feature of the hotel.

There are 20 simply furnished rooms, all with en suite shower room, courtesy kit, flat screen TV, air conditioning/heating.

The Facilities

A basic light continental breakfast is served daily in the cloisters overlooking the monastery courtyard.

The hotel is surrounded by cafe bars, pizzerias and restaurants for eating out in the evenings. The long Lido beach stretches all the way from the port to Fertilia with sunbeds and parasols to hire and beach bars for drinks and snacks.  There are boat trips available from the port, adjacent to the old town, to Capo Caccia and Neptune’s Caves.

The hotel reception can help with local information and the programme of concert recitals in the central courtyard of the hotel which is adjoined to the side of the church. These concerts may be observed from the cloister area within the hotel.  

COVID-19 Protocols

We are pleased to confirm that this hotel has put COVID-19 protocols in place to ensure compliance with the regulations introduced by the Italian government in order to ensure the maximum safety and security of its guests which is detailed below.

The measures introduced will apply to both the facilities provided by the hotel and its services to guests.  Their implementation will be closely monitored and controlled in order to ensure the heathiest environment in which guests can continue to enjoy their holiday in the confidence that their risks to exposure to the COVID-19 virus is at a minimum. 

We must point out that the implementation of these measures may result in minor changes to the facilities available and certain services offered by the hotel as described on our website and in our brochure and we therefore invite our clients to contact us if they have any concerns or queries in this regard.

Clearly the changes in practices and availability of facilities may result in a difference to the guests’ experience as would otherwise be the case, although a reduced number of clients may actually result in a better service being afforded to guests.

The Local Area

Now a popular holiday resort, Alghero is a charming old Catalan town often referred to as the Coral Riviera, nestled into the north west Sardinian coastline, with wonderful views over the bay to the dramatic cliffs at Capo Caccia.

The old walled Alghero town, within the ancient ramparts and lookout towers, has a lively atmosphere with a good selection of shops, café bars and restaurants. It has an interesting history to discover manifested in its well-preserved architecture and a weekly programme of choral concerts and recitals in the cathedral to enjoy. 

There is a 5km long white sandy beach stretching from the port and marina to Fertilia and other lovely coves and beaches on the way to Porto Conte.

Alghero is an ideal all year-round holiday destination to either relax and dine out in the town enjoying the local gastronomic delights, or to use as a base to explore the coastline, local towns and villages. 

Huw's View

This character hotel in the heart of the old town of Alghero will appeal to independent travellers who are looking for good value, basic yet comfortable accommodation uniquely situated in the old town. Definitely for those who want to be in the ‘heart’ of Alghero. 

Please note that due to the hotel’s location in a cobbled alley and the presence of steep steps to reception, the hotel is not suitable for people with restricted mobility or pushchairs.
