A lovely and unassuming hotel that does everything well and has a gracious and pleasant staff that makes you feel very much at home. Excellent and comprehensive breakfast. Be prepared to do a little hiking to get to your spacious room, but it's worth it when you get there. Wonderful people. Short walk to the town center, market, cafés...

A mixed review

This hotel was a mix of great and not so great for me. The town of San Pantaleo was really cute and it grew on me more and more. I am happy we stayed there. The hotel I will outline in pros and cons. Pros * Incredible staff. Front desk staff always ready to help. Restaurant staff spectacular!!! I can’t say enough about them. * Restaurant was awesome. Food excellent overall. Dinners were great and breakfast was outstanding. Lots of choices and the coffee out of this world! * Lobby had a nice sitting area with a tv. Comfortable to hang out. *. Pool was really nice! Nice views over the mountains and valley from the pool. Great place to hang out. Cons * I’ve come to notice that with Hotels.com you often get the worst room. We certainly must have gotten the worst room. No view, garden facing so the mosquitos were always there. All the other rooms had nice terraces and views. * The bed aside from being hard had a thick mattress cover that made you sweat and feel like the bed was damp. Super awful feeling. * The hairdryer in the bathroom is one of those really old plastic ones that heat up hot in two minutes and burn your hand while not drying your hair at all. * The room was more of a 2-3 star affair. Not even close to 4 stars. Very basic. Not very comfortable. While I clearly hated the room, the hotel in general had such a nice feel that I always looked forward to coming back at the end of the day.

Great and cozy hotel

Wonderful atmosphere in a small cozy hotel in a small “mountain” village. All staff are nice and helpful. Fantastic continental breakfast. Certainly a place that I will come again and highly recommended as a spot for exploring north part of Olbia.

Great hotel, friendly staff

Our experience at Arathena was just wonderful! Staff was very friendly and helpful and even supported me with an amazing birthday surprise for my boyfriend during the dinner. They went above and beyond! The food was top notch as well, we ate twice there because it was so good. We absolutely enjoyed the great atmosphere at the hotel and the highlight is for sure the dining area with the beautiful terrace. We will definitely return!

Skuffende oplevelse

Hyggeligt hotel udefra. Morgenmadsområdet er hyggeligt, og morgenmaden er god. Poolområdet er meget lille, og der er ikke plads til så mange omkring poolen. De har værelser egnet til ældre eller handikappet, hvilket jo egentlig er positivt. Vi fik dog sådan et værelse som ungt par, hvilket fjernede charmen fra hotellet, som vi i forvejen havde betalt meget for. Dette burde fremgå af værelsesbeskrivelserne, så man enten aktivt vælger det, eller kan vælge et andet hotel. Overordnet set en skuffende oplevelse.

Das Personal war das eines 5 Sterne Hotels! Wirklich TOP ein grosses Lob an die Mitarbeiter! Reinigung und Sauberkeit war makellos! Top Frühstück! Leider war das Bett zu hart (evtl. Geschmackssache), ein Wasserkocher wäre nicht schlecht im Zimmer gewesen! Und Badetücher für die Liegen am Pool wären schön gewesen. Aber im ganzem war es ein schöner Aufenthalt! Danke!

Amazing hotel tucked away in the hills of the Costa Smeralda. The scenery is stunning and the village really comes alive at night. We loved our stay here!!!
