MClub Lipari

Such a lovely place sadly with so many problems. Ideal for families who speak french or Italian. If you are a single couple speaking English expect a loud experience and very little help from the staff. The rooms and the premise are otherwise great. Breakfast is also good. The small "train" to the beach is also a very nice addition.

We got suckered by the four star reviews. Were they legitimate? Can't say for sure. But if you have ever stayed in a budget Marriott/Starwood or Hilton property and thought they were a good value, do not stay here. If you do, prepare to be very disappointed. The only good thing I can share about this place is the location. Service, rooms, and food are all well below sub-par. The HVAC is non-existent so if you stay here on a warm day, prepare to not sleep. The rooms have no sound dampening in the walls so you can hear your neighbor open every door and every drawer. In addition, the wing we stayed in was over the bar so we got to party to the music in our room alone with the partygoers downstairs. Only issue with that is we preferred to sleep which was impossible. Nice, huh! Don't say you haven't been warned.

Avoid this place. Rooms outdated, food was terrible at the buffet, WiFi was unusable at times, and they had loud music blaring at level 10 until midnight in an outdoor area. We got stuck here on a tour. Do not go here if you want to be comfortable, get some sleep, and enjoy a good meal. We had to go to the high end restaurant after the buffet to actually get some good food.
