Badia Nuova Apart Hotel

Great hotel in the old town of Trapani. Hotel situated on a quiet pedestrian street, bars and restaurants within 50 yards yet little noise. There is a small beach and beach bar about 100 yards away. The centre of the old town is about 100 yards away. My group had two apartments in the hotel, which were spacious and comfy but lacked balconies. Nice rooftop bar, but the best thing about the hotel was definitely the breakfast setup, fresh made to order coffee, nice verity of food, and a nice shady outdoor setup.

Stayed here for 3 nights in a 2 bedroom ‘Suite with Terrace and View’ (room 401). The pictures and blurb on the website gave us the impression of a master bedroom with a lovely vaulted wooden ceiling, airy, spacious and plenty of natural light. The suite we were given however was fairly dull away from the patio doors onto the terrace, with little natural light and bland decor and ceilings. The bathroom was compact (no idea how it would have worked if there had been more than 2 of us in the apartment). The second bedroom, which had twin beds pushed together, was like a cave with its only window looking into a small internal void with a steel grill on top. The whole apartment seemed to have been shoe-horned in amongst AC unit outlets and ducting voids for the rest of the hotel. The terrace whilst a decent size was adjacent to the hotel’s rooftop bar and had a fairly high wall round it (1.5m at its lowest point, but over 2m on two sides). The ‘view’ therefore was visible only in one direction, whilst standing and was of a building under construction in the distance. Whilst sitting on the terrace the ‘view’ was of walls which you could enjoy whilst listening to the 3 AC outlet fans attached to one wall of the terrace. The kitchen/lounge area was fine. Breakfast was hit or miss. Fairly limited choice of cereals and pastries and weird tasting filter coffee self served from a large pump thermos. There was supposed to be bacon and eggs. One day 1 it was ok, day 2 there was only chocolate based cereal as they’d run out of muesli and the bacon and eggs were stone cold as the heating trough was switched off. Day 3 there was no eggs and bacon left at 8.45 am (the staff did eventually agree to cook some more to order after a long wait and various debate amongst the 2 of them). Came back one evening after a long day of sightseeing only to be turned away at the front desk and told to come back to the hotel in an hour as they were having a problem with the power. Not within their control I guess but no apology, offer of a cold drink, just told to try again in an hour. Overall, nothing special. Not what we expected based on the website photos and other rave reviews. Not great value either for the €240 per night we paid to stay - wouldn’t rush back (certainly not to room 401 anyway) or recommend it to our friends.

Amazing experience, staff and location!

The staff was helpful, especially Diego. The breakfast was nice and the spaces were clean.

great location. rooftop bar was great! Breakfast was plentiful. room clean.

It was average, compared to other hotels in Trapani, I think they are a little overpriced for what it is. Its clean and very central in a quite area, so perhaps if peace and quite is of preference this is the place otherwise, I wouldn't necessary return.

Spotless rooms with very nice and helpful staff

This was a great hotel. Excellent location, beautiful rooms and friendly staff. Parking service worked well given the location in the pedestrian area. One staff member really stood out - Ada. She was our first point of contact and was professional and super helpful.

This mini apartment was very spacious, with a separate kitchen/kitchen table area that allowed my husband to work without disturbing me in the bedroom. Shower was tiny. Breakfast was not as good as at the other hotels in this price range that we stayed at, e.g., sliced grocery store bread appeared with croissants. When one read through all the information in the booklet that was in the room, it said that water must be boiled five minutes before drinking. I drank some before I saw this. They should have put up a more prominent sign or informed us when we checked in.
