The room at Hotel Universal in Senigallia was absolutely charming! It had a cozy, nostalgic vibe that made me feel right at home. The bed was so comfortable, I haven't slept that well in ages. The view from the window was lovely too, overlooking the picturesque streets of Senigallia. I really enjoyed my stay there.

I must admit, the only thing I didn't quite like was the size of the bathroom. It was a bit small for my liking, but I understand that others might not mind.

A private beach with beach umbrellas and sunbeds - great for pretending to be a celebrity! Strategic location for exploring the Marche region. The hotel is filled with impressive artwork and historical pieces - perfect for pretending to be cultured!

Didn't like the fact that I had to leave and face reality again.

Cute beachfront hotel with friendly staff, great breakfast, and lovely sea views. Some rooms have been recently renovated while others have a charming old style. Conveniently located near the city center. Overall recommended.

gemma on reception was outstanding and the staff were very friendly and helpful. great location, just across the road from the beach and close to cafes and bars. room was nicely refurbished, clean, and had a nice balcony. staff were lovely and very helpful too.

Shower not working at night.

The hotel is primarily a beach resort, which is aiming to attract business customers as well. Among 3 star hotels, a very broad category in Italy, it is certainly in the upper quarter. It is located on the less busy promenade of Senigallia, with few bars, restaurants or gelateria; nevertheless, everything is close by, and the bikes, which are freely available to guests, allow to tour the pretty city center and the main beach promenade. This is pleasant for the business traveller as well, who can find a Wifi bar or restaurant to do some work outside. The hotel staff is very helpful; ready-to-eat apples, as well drinks, for arriving and departing guests are a great touch. Breakfast includes yoghurt (though not fat free), eggs, a good choice of fruit, cereals, organic cereals, hand-made cappuccino and a large caffelatte: in summary, good to very good, with a spectacular sea-view. The building itself, though re-styled nicely, is probably from the 70-80:s, and suffers from that age's conceptual limitations: single rooms are small, in the old monastic cell style, with little or no decoration. The little table and the 80-style tablecloth are a bit sad, but the sea-side view (which I had requested) solves it all. The bathroom is much better, with new, small-sized tiles, and an original cylindrical shower (which, with minor refitting, could become a spa-style shower); some decoration missing, but still pleasant. Otherwise clean. In general a cost- effective and pleasant choice. And free Wifi!

The age of the building, the lack of newspapers (though you can order but nobody mentioned it).

We ate at the bar Skizzo Bar. 10 minutes' walk to Palazzo Mastai.

This hotel is in an excellent location right in front of the beach. You can't beat the convenience of having the beautiful sandy beach just steps away. The hotel even provides sun loungers and umbrellas on their private section of the beach, making it so easy to relax and enjoy the sun.

No complaints, everything exceeded our expectations.

All the staffs were very kind & friendly, always with smile. Hotel was located just in front of beach. Beautiful views from room, lobby and restaurant. Clean, modern and good design. Very comfortable to stay!

I absolutely loved staying at this hotel. The location was perfect - right on the beach with amazing views of the sea from my room and during breakfast. Plus, the best seafood restaurant in the area was just a short walk away. I found it easily from the train station and there was parking available right in front of the hotel. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the breakfast buffet had an excellent selection. The staff were super friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

Didn't dislike anything about the hotel.

The customer service at this hotel was exemplary. We received a confirmation email directly from the hotel less than 5 minutes after booking. We could not have been more impressed by the personal attention given by Serena and her staff,. This is a summer resort hotel which is extending its offering by catering to a year-round clientèle. A problem with my car was resolved by the arrival of a mechanic within 15 minutes of notifying Reception. Friendly and responsive service all round. Hotel has been tastefully themed, wide selection of breakfast options. We highly recommend this hotel located on the beach within walking distance of historic Senigallia, our staging point for Ancona ferries.

Fantastic view, great location, close to beach, convenient eateries, free bikes.

Cannot find any fault.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. Great location, right on the beach and a short walk to town. Clean and affordable.

Location, availability of bikes, friendliness of staff,

Having to pay for sunbeds

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel in Senigallia. the location was perfect, being directly at the beach. It was so convenient to have the sandy shores just a few steps away from the hotel. Secondly, the staff at the hotel were amazing. They were friendly, helpful, and multilingual, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. Lastly, the rooms were clean and comfortable, with delightful bathrooms. I particularly loved the extra shower in the room, which was a great added touch.

Everything was great

Location in front of beach. Beach only for hotel guests. Friendly, helpful and efficient front desk staff. Brand new bathroom.

Slow, tiny lift (which also needs new carpet and paint job). Room was a bit small (and this was not the economy room).
