This elegant dining room, adorned with giant fichus and the spectacular terrace overlooking the Gulf of Biodola, is the cornerstone of the culinary experience created by executive chef Paolo Balestrazzi.
The Hermitage Restaurant is the primary restaurant for guests who choose to dine at the hotel.
The menu includes classics of Italian cuisine with a particular focus on Tuscany: cured meats, Tuscan cheeses from Elba, and local beef specialties, Chianina and Sienese. As well as specialties from Parma (our chef’s hometown), such as sweet prosciutto and parmesan cheese. It is hard to resist the rich buffet of cheeses, salads and desserts, which changes every day: ranging from classics, like real Viennese sachertorte, to traditional Elban desserts like Schiaccia bracia, a type of fruitcake infused with local wines.
And for vegetarians, we offer many dishes based on fresh vegetables, tofu, seitan and tasty gluten-free options for those with an intolerance.
Only guests who have booked can leave a review.

3 months agoFood was good as they catered for my husband's vegan, gluten free diet. Service was friendly. Rooms nice and clean but felt the website was not honest in not saying that there was a charge to use the spa. Even on their sister hotel that does not have a spa it says you can use the their spa hence we chose this one for the spa. Other hotels that do charge for the spa always allow you to use it for free once you have a massage there. Despite my husband and I paying €240 for a massage, they still wanted us to pay a further €100 to use the spa for one hour only.

6 months agoReally enjoyed my stay with the family at this hotel. Fantastic location with. Great views and direct beach access and a very good service level. The pool area was large and there was always ample space with sun loungers etc. Food was good and perhaps too plentiful :) I liked that they had a mini club which my children loved, it could perhaps have been made even better by having the possibility for a more unbroken all day service rather than a morning, afternoon and after dinner session. Overall, I would recommend a stay here.

8 months agoSTAY AWAY. While the property itself is amazing, the hotel is old and dated. The walls of the rooms are paper thin and can hear everything in the adjoining rooms. The AC barely works and the decor is dated. The linens and pillows are awful and overall the rooms feel like a 2-start hotel. Not worth the money.

6 years agoExcellent in all manners! Food is super delicious. Staffs are so well mannered and kind. The pools are awesome, specially the one with warm water and bubbles. There are two tennis courts. One does not need to go out of the hotel in order to reach the beach. Very organized!
