    Claims they are 4 star but have NO Iron for guests. Beach is advertised as private beach for the hotel but beware it's NOT!. Swimming pool isn't run by the hotel and again, advertised as part of the hotel and it's NOT!. Extra fee required for pool and beach.Get your own toiletries as hotel provides 25ml shampoo/shower gel a day per person. It seems they are a super tight budget hotel. You are better off with an AirBnB since they provide literally NO SERVICE of their own.Breakfast: Enough choice but it's just basic for an acclaimed 3 or 4 star hotel.Goodluck sleeping on the rock solid beds. There are 2 venues just by it too who play super loud music 3 times a week usually till 3am. Either you join them, or no sleep.You are better off with an AIRBNB accommodation than this hotel which provides very minimal service. Most of their receptionist are rude and dont like to be asked questions.TRY ELSWHERE!

    Has a faded grandeur with external noise problems.

    rating13 Jun 2025

    I stayed here for two nights at the end of an organised group tour.Room comfortable and clean but no remote control for air conditioning in room which was set too high for my comfort. I had to go down to reception and say what temperature I'd like and they controlled it remotely, Once turned on I again had no control over it and could not adjust it or turn if off ! Bizarre. Reception staff were helpful and friendly, and waiting staff were attentive. it seems to have a 1970s feel and needs a good repaint on the outside giving it a sad and faded aspect with its peeling blue paint.Breakfast was adequate but didn't care much for the evening meal on offer so ate out the next evening.My major complaint (which is no fault of the Hotel Sporting Baia itself ) is the noise from the night discos on the beach opposite and down the road and was kept awake to beyond 2am both nights . I was in room 103 on the sea front so would advise a room at the rear to get any sleep if you do have a booking which is why I didn't give a higher rating .I personally wouldn't stay there again by choice and was quite pleased to leave and catch up on much needed sleep.

    It really is as bad as some reviews say

    rating16 Mar 2025

    A poor choice. Dilapidated rooms begging for an upgrade. Hotel surrounded on all sides by traffic noise. Dreadful breakfast. Please do not support hotels whose managment are running them into the ground like this. It's a disgrace. Look elsewhere.

    Lovely hotel with good views

    rating14 Sept 2024

    Lovely hotel a little dated but clean and spacious. Impressive dining room with extensive choice of food for break fast. Effective staff who sorted any issues out quickly and professionally. Excellent view of the bay from the front and views of Etna to the rear.
