We came here on our honeymoon and they very kindly had sent a bottle of bubbles to our room, which was such a lovely start. The hotel is huge, very green, and has a lot of lovely facilities. The staff were very responsive to our questions, and it is such a nice extra that they have a van that can take you to local towns (finishes at 9pm). The breakfast was amaaaaazing; so many options, including fresh juice they make for you, pastries, and savoury options. The staff at breakfast were SO kind. There is a beach that you can walk to and a pool that is really warm.

The hotel menu was very expensive - for example, we were charged 25 euros just to order room service (not including any food whatsoever). Cocktails and beers were pricey but it seems standard for that area. I was expecting our room to be a bit bigger than it was for what we paid.

Pros: Excellent service--a special shoutout to Lorenzo in the front desk for his kindness and resourcefulness. We were offered a room upgrade on arrival and the room was well-located and very comfortable, with an outside garden terrace and a private jacuzzi. Great hotel location (in Lacco Ameno, northwest of the island). I loved the ambiance, given the lush greenery in and around the property (honoring its name). The bed and pillows were very comfortable. We did not use the spa facilities, but they looked great, including a thermal pool. Its restaurant, Il Mirto, is vegetarian and top-notch; it has been awarded a Michelin Green star. Fair price, compared to other luxury hotels in the island/region.

Con: It does not have adjacent/direct beach access (perhaps a perk when one visits an island), as other luxury hotels might, but there are nearby beaches that are easily accessible.

The entire team at Botania went truly above and beyond during our stay. We felt SO welcomed, cherished and cared for. The room was beautiful, comfortable and we were given a complimentary upgrade. The grounds, restaurants and pools were spectacular. Especially the staff, they were truly so engaging, authentic and incredibly friendly. We LOVED the Yoga classes in the morning with Luisa, she adapted the class to our needs and truly helped make the stay even that much for relaxing and wonderful.

Nothing, truly a wonderful stay. We can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful property. This hotel is absolutely gorgeous, comfortable and clean. The breakfast buffet has tons of fresh and delicious options, staff was extraordinarily helpful in arranging ferry transfers, car rentals, and dinner reservations. The location was lovely, just a 5 minute drive to Forio. We loved getting apertivo by the pool or at the bar every night before dinner.

Our biggest complaint was the number of bees in the breakfast area each morning. Then breakfast was wonderful but the amount of bees swarming around as we ate was just not pleasant.

We were overwhelmed by the beaty and tranquillity of Botania right from the start. This place is a plant oasis, with natural mineral water, simply food for the eyes and soul. The staff were all amazing, super nice and super helpful. We can't wait to return next year!

The breakfast was one of the best we've ever had. We had to leave early, so Botania were kind enough to prepare a breakfast box for our departure. The contents were an offence in comparison to everything else we experienced. If you are going to offer that breakfast box, it's better not to bother at all.

This property quite literally epitomises an Ischian summer for me — forever. Every detail on this property was superb; the gardens to die for, the food at the on-site restaurants magnificent, the rooms were perfect, staff so friendly and accomodating. No screaming children poolside; just cocktails & relaxing music. I honestly can’t fault this stay or recommend it more. Heaven.

That I’m not allowed to live here permanently

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The food at breakfast and the restaurants on the resort was insanely delicious. The location of the resort is also ideal, walking distance from some of the best attractions on the island.

We came here directly after getting engaged. I requested flowers on the bed when we arrived as a romantic gesture. I was a bit disappointed when they told me it would be 40 euros. For the amount we paid for the stay, I would've expected that to be complimentary to enhance our experience, as it was at the other 2 hotels we stayed at on this trip.

Beautiful and peaceful place. Clean, comfortable, specious rooms. The views are breathtaking there. Spent lot of time by the swimming pool which was in September not crowded and great for swimming and sun bathing. The beach is just 5-8 minutes to walk - its amazing sandy beach with clear water, wonderful for both swimming and relaxing. The hotel staff is nice, very accommodating, helpfull, eager to come with good suggestions what to do at Ischia and helping to arrange whatever you need. Very good breakfast! Loved the place and hope to return back!

The staff make the amazing hotel even more amazing! The gardens are beautiful and well cared for. The food is all sublime with the amazing addition of a fully vegetarian/vegan restaurant. The location and pool are all fantastic. We didn't book the biggest room but had an amazing terrace and an amazing bathroom. All in all it couldn't have been better!

High standard of food, staff and amenities offered by the hotel. I have been to many amazing facilities in the world, but this one is one of the most interesting I have had the opportunity to visit. If someone is looking for peace surrounded by nature and unobtrusive staff, they have found the right option for their stay. I recommend it to anyone who appreciates unique places!
