Returning to Alghero this summer

Tomorrow I will fly to Sardinia, Alghero and I wanted to ask beforehand if there is a possibility to da a rapid antigentest in Alghero or somewhere else on the island like Cagliari ( since I will be visiting a few cities by car anyway) for free or at least at a cheap price.

Would appreciate any recommendations :)

Just a little tip for anyone looking at reasonably priced budget accompaniment in Florence ( *not easy!)

We booked into C Hotel diplomat for 5 days at around €50 euros per night with breakfast.

However, when we arrived we found it is closed at present, and there was a note on the door redirecting us to its sister hotel next door.

This is the ambasciatori hotel florence and it’s a much nicer hotel, where the rooms seem to go for well over double that.

I assume it’s temporary due to low numbers/ keeping costs down on running several hotels.

But it’s a nice little bonus for anyone on a lower budget and I can highly recommend it. Nice staff, great place, located right by the train station.

We also got a room upgrade to a larger room with a balcony view over the Duomo!

Thought I would share the luck for anyone looking at the meme to. Obviously can’t guarantee how long this will last.

Thanks again to all those who have helped with planning the trip so far :)

Hi everyone

We are a couple planning a summer trip and struggling to decide between Sardinia and Croatia. We are looking for a quiet beach vacation,that is not too crowded with tourists, and has hiking options. I would love to hear your opinion.

Thanks:)

Hi all,

What are your thoughts of the likelihood of travelling to Sorrento from the UK this Summer? Will the next review of restrictions come up anytime soon where we will have more clarity?

Hello!

I am planning a trip to Sardinia and Nice for 3 weeks next summer from the United States and am wondering if it's easiest to fly directly to Sardinia from the states (via Rome) as I'm having a difficult time finding travel from Nice to Sardinia that doesn't waste a day. Does anyone have experience with this type of itinerary? I can do Nice at the beginning or end of the trip and am trying to figure out what would be the easiest. Thank you!

Delta has changed our departing flight now out of LIN. We would like to use our Marriott Bonvoy points for the night before our flight. We have a 6:35 am departure flight. Our options are the Moxy hotel near LIN, the STRAF hotel near the Duomo, or the Westin Palace, Sheraton Diana Majestic or Excelsior Hotel Gallia which all seem to be about 20 minutes from LIN. To accommodate for our 6:35 departure we will have to be at the airport between 3:30-4:00 am. Does anyone have an opinion on where we should stay. It doesn't look like the MOXY has many amenities nor a restaurant, while the other hotels do. We are driving back to Milan from Verona and returning our rental car and would like a relaxing evening before our early morning return to the US. Thank you in advance.

Hi I’m really torn between club hotel Baja Sardinia or grand hotel smeraldo beach. (OR, a non-beachfront in Palau). Could anyone offer advice or insight? I want somewhere fun/centrally located to bars and restaurants and beaches (won’t have a car). Thanks in advance!

Hello. We are planning our trip next summer, which will be based in Italy since our daughter already has a school trip scheduled there.

We're planning to spend about 12 days in Italy, ending in Venice. We have 5-6 more days to play with, and were debating between going to Switzerland for the first time, or going to Milan/Lake Cuomo (also for the first time).

I'm hesitating to add the Switzerland portion onto our trip, out of concerns that it might complicate our travel next summer for Covid-related reasons. I'm worried about things like a difference in entry requirements, extra testing requirements, etc. We are all four fully vaccinated, but who knows what the rules will be concerning that by June 2022?

Since nobody has a crystal ball, I was hoping someone could at least talk about how easy it was to travel between Italy and Switzerland this summer (for vaccinated Americans, if that is relevant).

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give. :)

Hi there,

If anyone could help with the following, we would be hugely grateful!

My partner, our very active and walking/ climbing/ running 14 month old anc me need to spend a night in Rome in mid-July. We will be coming via train from Florence some time on aSunday and taking a flight out of Rome on Monday lunch time. We are looking for somewhere with easy access to the station, but also somewhere that might provide a little bit of luxury and a treat for the final night of our trip. We imagine it maybe too hot to see much of the city with our toddler (and we will only have the afternoon) so wondered if there was a hotel that was set up to receive families or couples with children - or if anyone has had a really good hotel experience in central Rome they can recommend!

We usually stay in Airbnb’s or camp, so this is new for us.

Our budget is around 200 euro of the one night, give or take.

Thanks in advance

(Oh, and we are up to date on all the necessary covid tests/ quarantines as well as being fully vaccinated)
