Multiple guests highlighted the 'amazing sea view' from the rooms and terrace. Staff friendliness and helpfulness were frequently praised, described as 'very friendly' and 'exceptionally courteous'.

The hotel has the best location in all of Scopello. It's right in the center, just steps from the main square. Beautiful views from the restaurant and some rooms. It's a shame the hotel restaurant is closed in September, we would have loved to have dinner there. We had breakfast, but it wasn't worth the price. Overall, I highly recommend it. The staff was very friendly.

The hotel and rooms are very dated. The furniture in room is old and scratched. The host did not provide any instructions to access the hotel prior to arrival. There was no AC working ( a plug-in was given for mosquitoes), no fridge, no water, Tea or coffee in the room. The tv was small and outdated.
The room was poorly decorated. There were only 2 pillows for the bed. No other pillow in the room. The breakfast was an additional 10 euros per guest. The parking another 8 euros- the stay was very overpriced for what was offered.

There are mild in the bathroom, and the elevator did not work

Parking was a long way on a muddy open field. Rooms are small but cute. Left early as the nature reserve was closed, so no hiking there.
Staff tried to understand.
29.09.2025 Simone
The owners were unkind, unfriendly and rude to us . I would not recommend this hotel to anyone because the location is very hard to get into. If you arrive by car you cannot bring the car to the hotel . You must walk quite a distance over uneven stones uphill and downhill. The room had not been cleaned thoroughly for a very long time and the drainage in the shower was very slow to say the least .
23.09.2025 Joseph
Pictures that show the property on ******* are a lot better than what you actually get when you arrive. The Terrace room had no privacy whatsoever. You sit on top of the people to the left and to the right. The breakfast was poor based on other breakfast we’ve had. Certainly not worth €10 probably more like five.
25.08.2025 Adam
Amazing views and lovely old hotel
Go for the seaview room... you won't regret it and it's worth the extra. I think one of the best hotel views I've ever had. Simply stunning.
13.08.2025 Harrison
A stunning boutique hotel with beautiful staff and incredible views over Scopello! Right in the main town and only a short stroll to the incredible beaches! Exceptional value too
07.08.2025 Andra
The hotel overall was very pretty and great location. The rooms were Italian styled and we had a nice balcony.
Staff was very helpful and the breakfast had an amazing view.
It might need a renovation but it was overall a very nice stay.
16.07.2025 Haejin
We stayed one night at Torre Bennistra and we were so glad that it was only for one night. The hotel is long overdue for a renovation. The room has very old furniture and barely any amenities. The AC didn’t work well. The only good thing about the hotel was the sea view. We didn’t have breakfast so I cannot say anything about it. The hotel staff was friendly, though and it is near to all the bars and restaurants.

I was very disappointed in my stay.

The good: the room and bathroom were very clean and nice. The staff at the desk were very kind and welcoming. A short walk to the village. Peaceful.

The bad: I paid a lot of extra money to book a place with a pool and inclusive breakfast. The food at breakfast looked absolutely inedible and was a huge disappointment. I know the Italians really only do pastries and espresso for breakfast but after traveling for so long I really just wanted some scrambled eggs which looked green and old. In addition, i paid a lot of extra money to book the hotel because of their pool. It is a really beautiful spot. However it had not been vacumned for many days and was dirty. I didn’t see anyone testing the chlorine the whole time I was there. I didn’t dare get in it. Another huge disappointment. Will not visit again.

Updated to respond to hotel’s comment: Yes, I absolutely stayed at the hotel in September. Also, i did not pay an additional fee for the pool —it was included with the room. However, I could have booked a stay much more inexpensively at another establishment without breakfast or a pool. I tried to speak with the owners directly while I was at the hotel and got brushed off. Other reviews mention the uncleanliness of the pool and poor breakfast. Not just me. Improve these things and you could have a wonderful 4 star hotel.

Wonderful wonderful place. Myself and my girlfriend (at the start of the holiday) loved our stay here in September 2025.
I had planned to propose to her on our second night and Giorgia and the team were SO SO helpful. They gave amazing recommendations on restaurants and helped me plan the location for the proposal. As well as offering extra amenities the day after.
The pool was amazing rooms spacious and clean, local beaches and restaurants were fabulous. The location is brilliant.
We had a magical 8 day stay - and will certainly be coming back, Scopello is like something out of a movie, such a lovely place.
Thank you Hotel Baglio Dello Zingaro for helping us have an unforgettable week. 💛
15.09.2025 Connie
We loved our stay at Baglio dello Zingaro! Very comfortable, close to everything and parking is extremely convenient. The breakfast was 10/10 as well as the service. Everyone is so kind and helpful!
09.08.2025 Petter
Met expectations however still room for improvements; breakfast is in lower range but still not bad. Pool area is beautiful with nice beds and sunscreen, some refreshments for sale, however it was rather noisy and water quality in pool seemed unpleasant

The structure is practically new, very clean and tidy.
All the staff are courteous and always available.
My wife and I spent two unforgettable days! Thanks for everything we will definitely be back ❤️
