First of all, I would like to refute the opinion that Martha (the owner of the hotel) does not like Russians! This is absolutely not true! I don't know how those Russians whom Martha allegedly disliked proved themselves! But I was a witness to the unpleasant behavior of compatriots who were initially dissatisfied with everything (for example, the size of the soap in the room... ). With people who do not speak (and do not attempt to speak) any language other than Russian, and even with eternal claims, it is difficult to be too cordial. I did not notice any discrimination in the seating arrangements in the restaurant. The waiters tried to serve everyone as quickly as possible, they were very kind. In general, I remember all the staff as professionals in their field! Especially warm memories will remain about the owners Marta and Enzo and Anna, who works at the reception!! ! On the difficulties of translation. I can’t say about everyone, but besides Italian, they speak here: Anna speaks English, German, French, Spanish, she knows a few phrases in Russian. Martha - in German, French. Enzo - English, some Russian. Perhaps Marta and Enzo speak some other languages, I have listed only what I know for sure. In the restaurant, the waiters also speak English (at least at the initial level), some know a few phrases in Russian (it's very nice when one of these boys in broken Russian says "Bon appetit! " from the heart). Night porter Pino - French, English. Bartender Angelo - English. The receptionist Laura seems to speak French and English. Although, I think that everyone knows German, because there are a lot of Germans both at the resort and specifically in Mirafiori! Food. Delicious! Breakfast is the usual European, as already mentioned, scrambled eggs with bacon every other day, meat and cheese slices, buns, muesli cereal and yogurt-milk for them, croissant muffins, jams-honey-chocolate, pineapple and red orange juice, coffee -machine with several varieties of coffee, watermelon and melon. In my opinion, it's not bad for breakfast!! ! : ) I usually don't have breakfast at home with 3 courses, so breakfast didn't seem monotonous to me. . Dinner menu: in the evening you choose from the proposed dishes. I will not repeat myself about this system, I will only say that I really liked this system! Almost like Kinder Surprise - you don't know what they will bring! I have never been disappointed (except that it is better to eat pizza in a specialized place), everything was very tasty and varied! Yes, a couple of times there were difficulties from the category of “how is it ?! ”, but at my request the waiter explained, so do not hesitate to ask! Separately, I want to say about desserts! Dessert is brought by the waiter after dinner, after asking what you want. Sometimes I wanted watermelon or ice cream, but mostly they chose cakes - they are just amazingly delicious!! ! The only thing I want to say: indeed, after 2 weeks of staying in Italy, I wanted buckwheat porridge, chicken broth. . . ) But this is not the problem of the hotel: if you come to Italy, where pasta is the "national dish", be prepared to eat it every day. Before dinner starts, when the doors of the restaurant open, Marta, Enzo and the waiters line up and greet the first people to enter. And during the whole dinner, both Enzo and Marta are in the restaurant, each minding his own business. . I immediately went down to the reception to ask if there were any available rooms with 2 beds, Anna promised to send the maid Maryse to us. Maryse came in a few minutes later, pulled the beds apart, remade the beds. Then we searched and did not find a refrigerator : ) Again, I went downstairs, I asked Marta already, she explained that in Italy refrigerators in hotels start from 4 *. Everything is o-h-e-n-b benevolently! In response to a calm, friendly question. Regarding the safe: it is built into the wall in the room, you need to ask for the key at the reception, for it you leave 10 euros, which are returned to you at the end of the stay, that is, you don’t need to leave any more fees. If necessary, ask the reception for a hair dryer - no deposit is required for it. There is no Russian channel in the hotel, for what reason - I don’t know, I didn’t ask, because we were only glad that we didn’t have the opportunity to watch TV. But I know that some tourists did not like it (because of which, according to tradition, a scandal almost erupted... ), therefore, if it is important for you to watch Russian TV on vacation, check with the tour operator, perhaps next year the channel will appear. The room is spacious (we had a regular, 2-bed, no sea view). The maid changes towels and rug every day, bed most likely every other day or every 3 days. Downstairs in the hotel there is a very cozy room with sofas, TV, piano. A 5-minute walk from the hotel (if you go to the right along the road that runs along the beach) there is something like a sports ground: rings, horizontal bars, logs, signs with possible exercises. In the morning before breakfast, many tourists (regardless of age) run and play sports. walking along the stone path along the beach. We liked Mirafiori so much that this year, after a week of excursions, we decided to spend another week in this hotel!
