Europa Stabia Hotel

Don’t stay here. When you arrive you get presented with a list of things you have to pay for - including the swimming pool (£20 a day!!!), air conditioning (£10 a day!!!) and even the fridge! After waking up at 5am, having a long journey to get to the hotel including walking up a long, steep hill with no pavement, that was not the best way to be greeted. Rooms looked out onto a wall on one side or a big ugly derelict hotel on the other. Breakfast staff were rude, asking us to leave at 9.30 even though it was meant to continue till 10am. The croissants were the hotels only saving grace.

The owner of this hotel- Francisco , a really nice helpful man, another worthy of mention- Lia on reception, very helpful and welcoming. Booked through love holidays for a week...just don't, the hidden costs are hideous - air con- €112 , pool -€30 PER PERSON , PER DAY! To use the hotels OWN POOL!On arrival , and after booking breakfast and dinner were asked for the "voucher" for dinner...erm, no, we had no such thing so was informed that our dinner entitlement would be the anti pasti , if we wanted the full thing it would need paying for, so much for booking dinner eh. The room was overlooking a busy road, as others have said- constant mopeds all hours, the room was OK, air con worked fine, no mini bar or fridge. Drinks - €6 for a standard bottle of lager- top end, hotel does appear to be situated in a run down area with derelict hotels surrounding it. The food...sorry Francesco, it's awful apart from the pizza and chips, served by waiters dressed in full black suits etc , just try to concentrate on bringing up the food quality instead.

We are loving our stay here, The food is as advertised iand is excellent we’ve had pizza and breakfast we opted to dine outside each time.Breakfast had great variety and was tasty. Mr. Donnarumma(owner) is taking good care of us. It’s very clean and service is prompt! My family recommends this hotel.

Biggest scam in the city. Need to pay for everything. Parking, Frindge, Ac, Pool access. Far far away from beach and city center. Theonly way they have this review is because the Director Mr Francesco make you do review for a discount or just to not be annoying for the entire vacation. Avoid this scam

Very friendly and helpful staff. Thank you Will recommend. A little out of the way so you will probably need a car. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….………………………………………………………………………..

Omg where to start from start to finish this hotel is top notch we were greeted by francesca which is francesco the owners daughter and sons they are the most beautiful welcoming people I've ever met they went above and beyond for me and my teenage daughter with little presents making sure we were safe the restaurant staff are absolutely lovely especially the manager he's a gem Anna the cleaner she leaves your room spotlish does little things that most cleaners wouldn't I was actually crying leaving and I cannot wait to go back my little Italian family well done guys anyone staying in casatella di stabia has to stay here I've never experienced a hotel like it

what a wonderful small family run hotel !!!! many many thanks to francesco and francesca .... they are the nicest people i have ever met ... the staff were also wonderful . a special mention to anna the 3rd floor housekeeper!!! francesco you are very luck to have her working for you !! i honestly cannot say enough about our stay in castellammare di stabia . we visited so many places around the area and the town itself, try enzo and bruno for a pizza !!! magnificent we ate there 3 times, short train journey to sorrento ( or ferry for €4) , naples , pompeii. a short bus journey from sorrento to positano one of the most beautiful villages in the world. i cannot believe some of the negative reviews regarding the buildings that have become derelict over the years .. why blame the hotel for this ? cars and vespas honking going round small and dangerous bends behind the hotel? would you rather they crash ? again yes there is a litter and graffiti problem all over naples and italy but for me some of that adds to the very old culture of the place. it is so busy in these places and with the very small cobbled streets dark little alley ways it must make it impossible for any authority to keep it pristine as some would like to perceive it. but they cant. in positanto there is a local population of approx 2000 they can easily get 12000 visitors a day it must be an absolute nightmare to manage what some expect from them . in castellamare itself there are litter bins and trash cans everywhere a lot more than we have home here in ireland . so my only advise to anyone going to that area do your homework and if your looking for sand sea and sangria you are going to the wrong place .. but if you want culture good food reasonable prices cheap travel the warmest friendliest local people then i recommend castellammare di stabia and the surrounding area. once again many thanks to all at the hotel europa stabia kindest regards bernadette and brian quinn

We stayed here for our wedding anniversary and we can't say enough about our wonderful experience at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, all the staff treated us like family—so warm, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating. It’s rare to find a place where every single person makes you feel truly at home, but that’s exactly what we experienced here. Our room was cleaned daily to a standard you rarely see—it was spotless! This attention to detail really added to our comfort during the stay. The entire hotel was held to the same exceptional standard of cleanliness. A special mention must go to Francesco, the owner, who is an absolute gentleman. It's clear that he takes immense pride in both his hotel and his staff, and it really shows. His personal touch made our stay extra special, and we were genuinely touched by his kindness and attention to detail. The hotel offers a shuttle service to local amenities for a small fee, which was a huge relief given the high cost of taxis in Italy. This service was incredibly convenient for us! Each day, we were dropped off and picked up from the train station, allowing us to see and do more than we expected. The surrounding area(s) has so much to offer from Naples city , Pompeii, mount. Vesuvius, Sorrento, Capri, Positano,Amalfi and many more stunning places. Food We ate at the hotel every night ( 7 nights)and enjoyed every meal . My husband is a plain eater and his taste was accommodated to without hesitation or fuss( uncommon in Italy) We had breakfast every morning and found ourselves eating probably too much , their warm croissants were delicious along with their mini pancakes. The hotel even accommodated us with breakfast on days where we needed to leave before their set breakfast times. Again staff were delightful. This hotel is a true gem, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone. We hope to revisit in the future and see all their friendly faces again. Loved every moment of our holiday!

I have just left the hotel and am actually writing my review at Naples airport! All I can say is that I wish I was back at the hotel! My daughter and I spent a 7 day mini break at this hotel and we loved it! The hotel is owned by a charming gentleman called Francesco who is supported by his daughter Francesca and a team of amazing people one in particular is Lia who supports at the reception. The team members are all extremely polite, kind, professional and very very helpful. The hotel and its grounds are all extremely clean and clearly cared for. The housekeeping team do a great job at cleaning the room and towels are changed daily. We booked through loveholidays and had to pay some extra charges which I was already aware of having read the reviews but it was all perfectly explained at check in. I have already spoken to the hotel and will be booking my next trip through their website instead and will not have to pay extra charges! The hotel is at the top of a hill but it actually is an enjoyable 15 minute walk to town. If you prefer not to walk there is a shuttle from the hotel for a small fee or the bus which will bring you to the bottom of the hill, a short walk to the hotel. We ate at the hotel or used room service every night and the food is delicious! The breakfast is a buffet continental style served by again a team of lovely people. I do recommend the hotel and I myself will be returning soon! Thankyou francesco, Francesca, Lia and the rest of the team for our very enjoyable stay… see you soon!
