Mezzatorre Hotel & Thermal SPA, at Forio d’Ischia, is immersed in a pinewood of about 7 acres and in one of themost beautiful and well-preserved oases of Mediterranean vegetation, not farfrom Luchino Visconti’s charming villa.Situatedon the extremity of a sea promontory, it has a unique and privileged positionon the island where you can breathe in an atmosphere of ancestral tranquillity.The rooms and suites, the result of the restoration of an ancient 16th centurytower, are all elegantly furnished and have independent balconies. Thetwo restaurants, one adjacent to the tower and the other overlooking the sea,have typical palm-leaf roofs and offer regional and international dishesaccompanied by an excellent selection of wines. On one of the tower’sterraces, which are graded down to the sea, there is a heated seawater swimmingpool, but given that it is difficult not to renounce a swim in one of the mostbeautiful bays of the island, the hotel has an easy access to the sea allowingyou to sample its freshness. Among facilities available are the Health& Beauty centre and guided tours.
