Fodor's Expert Review Excelsior Grand Hotel

Via Vittorio Veneto 64, Reggio Calabria, Calabria, 89123, Italy

Inviting modern decor, all the amenities one expects from a top international hotel, and a prime location near the town's seafront make this a popular choice with business travelers as well as tourists. Most guest rooms have balconies and a sea view. The excellent top-floor Galà Restaurant serves local dishes with unusual flavors—perhaps swordfish marinated in bergamot or Sibari carnaroli rice mixed with cacciocavallo cheese and dusted with powdered licorice.

PROS

  • centrally located near Museo Nazionale della Magna Grecia
  • rooftop restaurant with views and truly unique dishes
  • near the beach

CONS

  • standard business hotel decor
  • street noise in some rooms
