Loved our 2 night stay here. We wanted somewhere close to the port that would allow us to easily visit La Maddelena and this was it. The hotel is a 25 minute walk from the port (or a 5 min drive). The facilities were good- enjoyed using the pool on our last day. Breakfast was also great. Only issues we had were a faulty toilet, which staff looked into.

Highly recommended!
We loved our stay in this place. The rooms are super cute. Staff very nice and friendly. We got some welcome drinks which is an unexpected bonus :) Great breakfast with a nice view to the pool. Free parking on site. Everything is super clean and well decorated. You can walk to the town centre but we preferred to drive since it was very hot. We recommend this to anyone staying in Palau.

Charming Hotel in the hillside
Room was a little damp It was fairly cold during our stay and there was no access to heating. Also, our TV did not work.. We did mention to the hotel manager but he did not seem very interested. However, esthetically, the hotel was lovely and it was clearly an hotel to stay in in high season when the weather is hot.. possibly not suitable in low season. Also, the swimming was not ready for use during our stay which was disappointing.

Hotel Altura Review
The wife and I stayed here recently during the middle of May 2012. The entire staff was fantastic! My wife has a sever gluten allergey and the hotel took her to the store and procured gluten free food that they could prepare for her during her stay. Every meal was prepared very well and again, the staff was great at accommodating us in meal choices and in language. We are American and needless to say, my Italian is not so great and they worked very hard to ensure we got everything we need. The rooms were not as large as most american hotels, but I expected that and was not disappointed. Palau was just a 5 minute drive away La Madd just a ferry ride from there. Definitely recommend.

Great service, convenient location for Palau, La Maddalena, Santa Teresa & Porto Cervo, lovely islan
Stayed here last September, great place and great holiday. Rooms are basic but service was great: staff were really helpful in recommending places to visit and how to get there. Close to the town centre but you have to drive or take a taxi as there isn't a path to walk on (taxi is around 10-12 Euros). Never had dinner in the hotel but other guests gave great reviews of the food, even though the selection is limited. Dinner is served later at night though. Once you're down at the waterfront in the town visit the restaurant called Re Ferdinando, good food, good service, pricey though but everywhere is here I guess. I'd also recommend visiting La Maddalena via the ferry at the port, more bars and restaurants there. Also, Santa Teresa isn't that far a drive from Palau, neither is Porto Cervo (20-30mins I recall), so this hotel is a good place to stay to be close to the various good places to visit. When we went to Porto Cervo many shops were closed as it was the end of the season but still had a walk around the port, had lunch looking out at the yachts, very nice, but didn't stay for long as it was very quiet. If you can, visit Alghero, long journey but lovely town, especially the old town. I'd also recommend taking the boat trip around La Maddalena which you can arrange through the hotel, seems they offer better rates than if you were to book down at the port. Boat visits a few different islands/beaches and offers a decent lunch on the trip as well (seafood pasta).

Bon séjour
J’ai passé une nuit avec ma fille dans cet hôtel. Il est indiqué pour un 4 Étoiles mais ressemble davantage à un hôtel-club. Je tiens toutefois à dire que nous avons passé un très bon séjour, chambre propre et confortable. Petit-déjeuner copieux et piscine.

Décevant
Le personel a l’accueil et qui font les chambres sont très serviables, très professionnels, gentils et accueillants, merci! Parcontre, la chambre était sale, le sol, la douche et les lavabos. Le matelas n’était recouvert que d’un drap fin et le matelas en dessous était vieux et très sale. Le diner était tres mauvais et très cher: fritures de légumes, puis sur nos plats: tomates pourries, poisson congelé avec une couche de mélange douteux aux olives, qui je suppose était sensé être un peu gratiné au four mais il était froid, la salade ne paraissait pas fraîche. Nous n’avons pas osé prendre le dessert ni le petit déjeuner. La piscine était très très sale. Les bords semblent ne jamais être nettoyés. C’est dommage car les chambres seraient jolies et le lieu aussi.

Gute Lage zum Hafen. Die Einrichtung ist aber sehr in die Jahre gekommen und beim Bett spürst du die Federn. Luft ist solala im Zimmer ist die Klimaanlage direkt über dem Bett, was zu nah ist und krank macht. Preis ist natürlich günstig, für 1 Nacht war es okay. Länger würden wir es nicht aushalten. Frühstück ist okay für den Preis.

Personal super, Preis-Leistung stimmt nicht
Check-in und Mitarbeiter super und freundlich. Alles sehr gut. Sehr bemüht und sehr hilfsbereit. Insgesamt sehr rustikal. Sehr angenehmer Flair. Die Anlage selber ist gepflegt und versprüht rustikalen Charme. Zimmer klein, Dusche hatte in den Ecken Schimmel. Kühlschrank war verklebt. Betten waren Liegen im Feldbett-Format und sehr unbequem. Wir hatten außerhalb auf der Terrasse einen kleinen Tisch und EINEN Stuhl für ein Zimmer für 4 Personen. Frühstücksbuffett ist Standard - nicht umfangreich aber ausreichend. Keine kulinarische Offenbarung ;-) Ich finde Preis-Leistung nicht angemessen. Für diesen Preis würde ich es nicht weiterempfehlen. Wir haben bereits mehrere Hotels auf unserer Rundreise gehabt, wo Lage sowie Preis-Leistung besser zusammenpassen. Der Fußweg nach Palau ist nicht durchgängig. Besonders am Kreisverkehr und an der Kreuzung gibt es unübersichtliche, gefährliche Ecken - dafür kann aber das Hotel nix. Es gibt nix in der Nähe, man muss Auto oder Fußweg einplanen.
