Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Location is perfect if you are catching the ferry. The downside is that there is no parking and you are on your own to drive up and down streets to find a parking spot. If you park beyond 8 am and don't pay you will get a ticket.

Pleasant Stay at Hotel Gran Luca.

This is the second time staying here. Our room was on the second floor and had a balcony we could go out on and eat, relax or people watch. Very enjoyable. Chairis was so pleasant and helpful at the front desk. No matter how many times we asked questions or directions, she answered them with a smile. Sending a shot from the front of the hotel at night.

Good view, bad food

A clean and spacious room with an amazing view overlooking the harbor. The restaurant looked good, but served very okay food. The breakfast was crazily sugary to the point that I wanted to go get tested for diabetes afterwards. The staff in the restaurant was a bit rude.

Hotel is nice and convenient to catching the ferry. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Rooms were clean and nice. The con: There is no designated parking. You are basically on your own and must pay during parking hours. It is near a 4 plex movie theater so finding a parking spot at night is very difficult.

Bad service and fake about gym

The hotel states that there is a gym at the hotel, even pictures of a gym at their website, and thats why we chosed this hotel. They haven´t had a gym in 2 years! When we alerted this to the reception at check in they were really nonchalant and we got no compensation at all! Its also very hard to find parking space at the hotel. We will not come back
