Hotel Alceste
The hotel staff was great as the check-in process went quickly and we were allowed into our room early as we arrived at 10:30. The room had a good bed and good air conditioning and for the economical price it was nice. It’s very close to the archaeological site which was the reason for our visit. You can walk to the beach and cafes in 5 minutes. We had a full buffet breakfast across the street at their sister property, Hotel Ademo. For a one night quick stay it was perfect

Do they not have business banking? The other thing I asked for was to see the menu for there restaurant it was not open until a little later, she sad no. It was on the same floor about 10 meters away. The whole time I was there they were ting to get me to eat at the restaurant, I said NO and ate at other restaurants!

Disappointing stay in a B&B posing as a hotel
Overall this Hotel was a disappointing. In reality it was closed as the only facility open was a reception. Breakfast was taken at a neighbouring hotel and the much vaunted restaurant was not functioning. To cap it all the room was dark and airless. The price was discounted but not sufficiently to make up for the shortcomings

Close to Selinunte temples
The hotel room was nice, though no internet. We were left a bottle of wine on the table. There is a very good eating-out place across the street. The breakfast was fine. The staff did not speak nor read English, and wanted to charge double for already a paid room.

Relaxing hotel
The hotel is situated about 10 mins walk from the beach however there is always a horrible smell lurking around selununte. The hotel is very classy and the food was superb. However there is not much to do in selununte and there is a bus to castleveterano every 3 hours. You would need a car to get around Sicily. Generally if you are loooking for a relaxing holiday this would be a perfect hotel and location to pick. The staff of the hotel and ppl of selununte are very friendly and welcoming.

si prevedeva il pernottamento all' hotel Alceste, all'arrivo abbiamo trovato un cartello che indicava di rivolgersi alla reception dell'hotel Admeto. L'upgrade è stato effettuato gratuitamente visto che la struttura (hotel Admeto) era di categoria superiore. Camera spaziosa, servizi un pò insufficienti, dosatore doccia shampoo presente nel box doccia, ma vuoto. Set di contesia posizionato sotto il lavandino del bagno. Il resto Ok. Abbiamo usufruito anche del parcheggio in garage gratuito. Colazione, speravo in qualche cosa di tipico, invece la colazione era tradizionale europea.

a parte la puzza in tutta la zona dovuta alle alghe della spiaggia messe al sole, in putrefazione, impossibile dormire sonni tranquilli a causa degli scarichi degli sciacquoni delle camere adiacenti e superiori. Praticamente li hai dentro le orecchie e ti svegli di notte con quel rumore molto fastidioso. Ed ancora, impossibile uscire magari andare fuori dall'hotel e lasciare a caricare la batteria scarica di un telefono o un computer. La chiave elettronica a scheda fà staccare la luce all'interno della stanza, praticamente black-out. Ma dico io, una sola presa potevano farla funzionare, che senso ha prenotare un 4 stelle per poi avere detto trattamento. Per il resto, colazioni ottime, personale anche, gentili e cordiali, pulizia ottima. Fate qualcosa, siete a Selinunte, non in una zona qualsiasi.

lasciate ogni speranza o voi ch'entrate....
In sintesi, ho trovato attrezzature guaste (wc che non scaricava: nauseante) e, nonostante la segnalazione, nessun intervento da parte degli addetti. Un micro televisore antidiluviano non funzionante e senza telecomando: quando ho segnalato questo sono stato persino messo in discussione dalla receptionist ("...mi sembra molto strano"...) e comunque non hanno provveduto a fornirlo.

Discreto hotel con un buon rapporto qualità prezzo
Ho soggiornato 2 notti in questo hotel con mia moglie, la struttura soffre un po gli anni sulle spalle ma ha un buon rapporto qualità prezzo, la mia camera la n. 36 era buona, il bagno ristrutturato (a differenza di altre camere), tv lcd, letto matrimoniale più un letto singolo. Personale gentile e disponibile, ottimo per soggiornare a Marinella di Selinunte, nota dolente, la colazione (fatta nel vicino hotel Admeto che ha 1 stella in più) non era un gran chè, torte di scarsa qualità, mancanza di bustine di thè (alquanto assurdo per un 4 stelle) ma presenza di camomille e tisana (ottime per partire sprint a mattinata :) ovviamente scherzo ), giovani ragazzi camerieri a cui dovrebbe essere fatto un breve corso. Parcheggio piccolo.
