The hotel is very clean and up to date, but the parking is very tight and limited, luckily you can park on a lot of the side streets for free and overnight. The bathrooms are small. Staff is very friendly and helpful and the beach is great! I have celiac and they were very accomodating preparing gluten free foods for breakfast. I can’t comment on lunch or dinner as we didn’t eat here. (Buffet only) I would recommend it.

Clean & tidy but disappointing!
Considering this a 4 star we were disappointed. The room was only set up for one person so immediately had to go and afk for extra towels. The room was comfortable and clean but you couldn’t swing a cat in the bathroom - very compact! The breakfast was OK but not the best I have had in my travels across Europe in the past week - catering for a very sweet tooth. I would rate this hotel as a 3 star definitely not 4! Although we were out of season and they had decorators in … might have more of an atmosphere in busy season.

Best Adriatic & local area views. This Hotel is the first one on the beach strip so the views from our room were the best Adriatic & local area views you could possible get. There is a restaurant on site but there are lots of other places to try, in the near vicinity. We would recommend this Hotel to any of our friends & family.

Nice modern hotel in Montesilvano. Great to have a pool, but the lifeguard played the music SO LOUD that went had to leave and go to the beach. Then, Marco approached us to say the beach chairs had been reserved - even though we paid the resort fee, and there were no signs we could see discussing such requirement. It was frustrating. Morning breakfast was good other than the powdered orange juice. Location was fantastic, but roads are closed evenings from 8pm-1230am due to a daily festival. Would have been good to know this as it was hard to figure out how to get to the hotel.

Great location with nice facilities, but average rooms and odd surprises. Additionally, I ended up being charged for more than the agreed upon rate on Expedia. Get ready for some hidden fees for the use of the beach - even if you don't plan on using it. The room was so-so, with lots of marks on the walls, a pretty uncomfortable bed, and a light burnt out in the bathroom. Also, expect cleaners to enter your room even if you've marked it 'Do Not Disturb'. The free breakfast was nice, but for other meals, the restaurant would advertise one menu, but offer another. I just ended up going elsewhere. That being said, the location is wonderful and close to many restaurants and shops. The pool was fantastic, and the staff were helpful.

Nice hotel close to the beach
Lovely stay. Room could have been bigger but lovely views from balcony. Unfortunately neighbouring hotels like to be noisy into early hours of morning. All staff were great apart from the male at reception who gave us very little info about the hotel. We watched other customers checking in with different reception staff and were receiving far more info. We were never offered all inclusive stay.

This hotel is perfect. The staff is extremely helpful. Any questions were solved immediately. The rooms are very comfortable and clean. The beach is just right outside the building. I would like to personally note Michelle - manager at the front desk. He is very intelligent, fluently!!! speaking English and doing all the the best for your amazing vacation. And Marco - beach guy- did his work with high quality. All beach area was always clean and safe! Ladies in the restaurant were fast and cared about every guest!!! Thanks a lot to Sea Lion Hotel for fantastic vacation. Definitely, this place makes me want to go back ;)!!!

Great hotel and fantastic staff
Way exceeded our expectations! Staff was friendly and accommodating and location is unbeatable. Relaxing beach and pool and very close to many great restaurants. Definitely value for money. Very good for the family - we were very pleasantly surprised that when we booked a room for 4 that we ended up getting 2 adjoining rooms - 1 for the kids with a bunk bed and one for us. Highly recommended.

Not 4*
Hotel is clean and neat but it's not 4* definitely. Reception is helpful and friendly (some of FO agents did not speak English) but waiting staff is a disaster . For example we went to evening meal part of us were All Inclusive part not, the waiter wouldn't let us sit together despite that restaurant was almost empty. He was very rude and throwing plates on table instead of putting them. He spilled some sauce on my husbands shirt. Surprising thing he was a head waiter so he should set an example, not giving the worst service among them. Another thing wi - fi very poor.

Great location on the beach but a tired hotel
The location of this hotel is perfect: right on the beach. Inside though, the hotel is generally worn out and tired and needs some refurbishment. It is certainly not 4* standard. Also, everything is a squeeze. Squeeze your car into the minute car park if you are lucky. Squeeze into the tiny lifts with your luggage if you can. And our bathroom was a tight squeeze too. It is a good job we didn't have a great deal of time to sample everything in the ample breakfast: check-out is a ridiculous 10am.

Disappointing Hotel - Not deserving its star ratin
This is apparently a 4 star hotel but I would not even rate it as 2 star. Firstly our veranda door would not close so we had to place a walking stick in the track to ensure security. Secondly, we arrived and was not given any information regarding breakfast which apparently was supposed to be included and we never got. On arrival, the reception girl had minimal English and spent her time trying to get me to pay extra for use of the beach!!! We have booked a seaside hotel so use of the beach should be a certain and at no extra charge! The rooms have no coffee or tea making facilities and are extremely plain. The bed was the worst I have ever experienced as it was like lying on the floor. We were given a room next to the stairwell and noise would carry into our room. We paid AUS$260 for this room overnight and were so disappointed with its quality. Would not recommend this hotel!

Great on beach location
The staff was friendly and spoke pretty good English. The only two things that were below expectations were the parking lot was VERY small which made parking a major pain when the hotel was booked. The second thing was the room picture on Hotels.com info was not anywhere close to the actual room. The actual room was nice, but about 1/2 the size of the picture and did not have a sofa, table or lounge chairs like was shown in the picture. It was not a big issue for me, but if you are looking for a comfy sofa or chair to relax and watch TV in before bed, the superior room does not have it. On the upside the view from the rooms are awesome, it is right on the beach, the food is good, internet is free and you have a huge number of little bar's and cafe's within easy walking distance.
