We booked a 4 night stay and like many other reviewers we arrived at the Pausania Inn with high hopes. Arriving at 11pm isn't the best time to assess your new surroundings but just seemed OK. We had arranged some food due our late arrival and plates of hams, cheeses, breads melon etc were brought to the room .. fantastic with a cold beer mmm. Next morning (and every other morning like most people) we had the breakfast which was fine, unfussy but don't expect a huge choice. One tip: ask for an espresso / capuccino at breakfast and they'll make you the real deal (free) otherwise you'll be having the filter stuff. This was followed by an hour or 2 relaxing at the beautiful pool which was clean and well looked after admiring the great views of the surrounding mountains. This was followed by a trip into the local supermarket to put together a picnic to take to the beach. (The supermarket is hidden away on the left going into town). It's 30 mins drive down to the nearest beach and then from there within 10-15 mins a great selection of fantastic beaches which even in July were not packed out. The room was perfect for us, with air conditioning and comfy beds overlooking the pool. The staf made sure that all our needs were met. For example our room did not have a minibar. We told them that the reviews and their website mentioned a minibar and within an hour an empty fridge was provided (perfect for what we wanted ... who uses minibars for anything else?) Overall the hotel is very quiet and peaceful, a car is definitely necessary and Tempio the local town is worth exploring as there are some lovely bars and a couple of restaurants to enjoy. By the end of the 4 nights we loved the place and left feeling peaceful and fully re-charged.
