Hey from Irene

Welcome to the B&B degli Ottimati!
Our B & Bs are all in the city center, from the central crossroads of Corso Garibaldi, the shopping street, to the Via Marina famous for being the most beautiful kilometer in Italy.

We love to stand out for the style of our architecture and modernize the historic houses of the city, always keeping an eye on our history and our tradition.

B & B degli Ottimati respects the oldest style, Greco-Roman, is recognizable by the capitals and ancient busts, while Guest House Via Marina Reggio Calabria is a modern classic that enhances the old style with touches of polycarbonate and housing technologies of the last generation.

We love welcoming our guests and involving them in the history and life of the city, illustrating not only the beautiful places to visit but also the best kitchens, where it is really possible to taste the real traditional cuisine.

We are waiting for you.

Great experience. A room in the heart of Reggio Calabria, a few meters from the seafront, the beaches and the main street, and it is a 15-minute walk from the main station and a 10-minute bus ride from the port. Small but comfortable, tastefully furnished. We were provided with everything necessary, with a fridge well stocked with water and all the items for breakfast, which the host, very kind, replenished day by day. About the host Antonella: a really friendly, helpful and precise person with whom to exchange some useful advice. Approved.

I spent three days at the B&B Degli Ottimati and I greatly appreciated the availability and kindness of the staff. Good central location of the property, cleanliness, and value for money. Informal but welcoming environment; the room is very comfortable, it is part of a large apartment from the early 1900s that has been renovated and is very enjoyable for lovers of retro style. A nice and unexpected surprise!

Congratulations to Antonella, extremely available for every request, and she manages the B&B Degli Ottimati in a warm and welcoming way. The location is very convenient, in the center, just a few steps from the promenade, where you can stroll, eat, and enjoy the beautiful view of Sicily.

Antonella is very kind and hospitable. She made sure we were comfortable and arranged a transfer to the port for us. Very grateful for that. We suggest improving the lighting in the apartment.

A little noisy at night, I believe due to a nightclub and a pub.

Very convenient location with a structure a few steps from the Aragonese castle and the seafront. We stayed in 5 (2 adults and 3 children) in a spacious mini apartment. Two air conditioners, large TV, new and clean bathroom. Kitchen complete with everything you need for meals. Comfortable beds. The apartments are well finished. Definitely worth confirming in the future. Winning quality/price ratio.

Ten out of ten! I felt better than at home. Unique reception, fabulous and warm staff. The room is very beautiful and spacious and breakfast is served in the bar opposite, which is really a nice place to stay in the evening. The city is beautiful, rich in monuments and many beautiful things to see and visit. I recommend this experience to those who truly want to enjoy the beautiful things of the South.

Exactly in the city center, in a side street off the main street, I found this B&B truly exceptional. Excellent welcome from the owner, he gave me information about the city, what to visit, where to have lunch and dinner and also where to find truly characteristic foods and a fabulous ice cream. The structure is very beautiful, elegant and clean. I recommend it to everyone.
