Despite being located on a busy road, the hotel manages to offer a peaceful atmosphere, making it an ideal base for exploring the northwest side of Sardinia. The hotel grounds, complete with a garden, pool and a dining room with ocean views, add to the overall appeal. The friendly and accommodating staff receive high praise, adding to the overall positive experience.

Breakfast
However, several guests felt that the breakfast fell short of the standards expected from a four-star hotel. Common criticisms included a lack of variety and freshness with the same items being offered daily, leading to a monotonous experience. Specific mentions were made about the absence of freshly squeezed juices and whole grain bread, as well as a desire for more diversity in meats, jams and bread types. Some found the breakfast to be very basic and expressed disappointment with the limited options and quality.
Overall, while there is a general consensus that the breakfast is adequate and enjoyable for some, a significant number of guests believe it could benefit from improvements in variety and presentation to meet the expectations of a four-star establishment.
Dinner
However, feedback does mention some reservations. While the overall dining experience is rated highly, some guests find the price-quality ratio to be exaggerated and the atmosphere occasionally unpleasant. Despite one review calling the furnishings very basic and another comparing the restaurant to a cafeteria, the general consensus appreciates the freshness and excellence of the meals served, both for lunch and dinner.
In summary, dining at the hotel restaurant is mostly reported to be a delightful experience with a special nod to the expertly prepared dishes and affordability, though there remains some room for improvement in terms of atmosphere and furnishing.
Rooms
The spaciousness of the rooms is another positive point; however, there are complaints about certain rooms being unexpectedly small or crammed, especially when additional beds are added. Some rooms do not match the online photographs and a few guests reported outdated interiors or worn-out furniture. While cleanliness is consistently noted, instances of dirty rooms and balconies were also mentioned.
The noise level seems to vary with some rooms being very quiet and well soundproofed, while others suffer from poor soundproofing. Guests also find the location appealing with easy access to a nearby beach and views enhancing their stay. Overall, positive experiences typically hinge on the room type reserved and its specific amenities.
Beds
However, a recurring theme from other guests is that the mattresses can be too firm with some even describing them as too hard or uncomfortable. A few reviews noted that the beds were old and worn out, impacting their overall comfort. There were also mentions of instances where mattresses designed for two people were not entirely satisfactory.
Overall, while many find the beds at Hotel & SPA Riviera Castelsardo to be comfortable and well-maintained, others feel that the firmness of the mattresses could be improved to accommodate different preferences.
Cleanliness
However, some areas for improvement are mentioned. Cleaning on the top floor is noted to happen later in the day, typically around 2 PM. A few guests have pointed out issues such as small showers and occasional dust in the rooms. There are also isolated remarks about the cleanliness of specific areas like bathrooms and balconies needing attention.
Despite these minor concerns, the overarching theme remains positive. The commitment to cleanliness significantly contributes to the welcoming and comfortable atmosphere of the hotel, making it a pleasant stay for guests.
Staff
Professionalism is a notable trait among the staff, who are described as attentive and lovely. The personnel, whether at reception, the bar or the restaurant, offer excellent customer service, always remaining kind, friendly and ready to assist. Guests appreciate the warm welcome and the staff's commitment to ensuring a pleasant stay.

Their willingness to help and their genuine friendliness contribute significantly to the positive experiences reported by guests. Overall, the atmosphere created by the attentive staff, combined with the hotel's stunning location, results in a highly satisfactory stay for visitors.
Spa
The spa also offers an exceptional massage experience, making it a significant perk for those staying at the hotel. However, it's important to note that access to the spa incurs an extra charge and must be booked in advance, a detail that some guests felt was not communicated effectively by the hotel.
Despite these minor inconveniences, the helpful and courteous staff contribute positively to the overall experience. Some guests did notice that parts of the spa could use a bit of maintenance, suggesting that the facilities have seen better days. Yet, the consensus remains that the spa and pool are definite highlights of the hotel, offering a well-designed escape for relaxation amidst a well-maintained environment.
Pool
Beach
However, it's worth noting that there are some mixed opinions about the beach's quality. While some found the beach nice and pleasant, others mentioned it being very dirty and not ideal for spending extended periods. Despite this, the overall sentiment highlights the hotel's excellent placement opposite the beach and just across the street from a bathing bay, ensuring scenic views and easy beach access for all visitors.
Parking
4 Star
The breakfast offerings were repeatedly mentioned as lacking in quality and variety, which further detracted from the four-star experience. Additionally, the hotel's spa area, while advertised as excellent, was only accessible for a significant additional fee unless included in the booking, which left some guests feeling that the hotel did not offer good value for money.
In general, while the location and basic accommodations were deemed acceptable, many felt that the hotel did not align with the expectations or standards of a contemporary four-star hotel. The consensus among guests is that the hotel would be more accurately rated as a three-star establishment.
