Hotel Claila, Francavilla Al Mare

If you are looking for a unique, supremely comfortable and friendly hotel, Francavilla Al Mare's Hotel Claila can't be beaten. As for beauty, the 19th century Palazzo Turchi that houses the hotel was declared a National Monument by the Belle Arti in 1990. Its position is matchless too, right at the heart of Francavilla al Mare and perfectly positioned for leisure guests - just a short stroll from the sea, and the fascinating sights and attractions of the town's historical centre. And it's perfectly placed for the business visitor, being 3km from the motorway, 10km from Pescara Airport. It's also just a 6km drive from Miglianico Golf course.

Despite its big attractions, the Hotel Claila is a small establishment with just 16 comfortably spacious rooms each brimming with character. Traditional grandeur melds with modern comforts in the marble-clad lobby area, the airy reading lounge and the bright breakfast room. For peace and quiet reflection there's a chapel. The Claila was inaugurated as an exclusive hotel only in 2004 with the installation of the latest comfort features. Each en suite room is equipped with TV, direct-dial phone, air conditioning, minibar, safety deposit box and sound-proofing. Some rooms have a shower others a bath and one boasts a jacuzzi. Concierge services include safety deposit boxes, dry cleaning and laundry service, left luggage and storage facilities, 24-hour front desk and express check-out. There's a comfortable lounge and well-stocked bar, croquet pitch and a nine-hole golf course. Valet parking, free car park, baby sitting, internet access and photocopying add to the Claila's comprehensive and warmly delivered list of services.
