Bottom Line
The Hotel Panorama, located in an old tower block in the historic center of Olbia, was renovated in 2009 and it stands out among neighboring upscale hotels (like the Hotel Cavour and Albergo Hotel Centrale) with its chicly furnished rooftop terrace, 24-hour spa, and freebies like breakfast, Wi-Fi, and parking. Rooms are bright, spacious, and traditionally furnished, and the hotel's location in the historic center of Olbia is within easy reach of public transportation. However, guests will need a car if they want to explore Sardinian beaches, and the surrounding streets can be difficult to navigate.

Small, upscale hotel with traditional design elements and a modern spa attracts couple
The quaint, narrow street of Giuseppe Mazzini leads to the entrance of Hotel Panorama and its small, traditionally furnished lobby with brown leather couches and wall mounted prints of floral oil paintings. First established in 1957 under the name Hotel Minerva, the hotel attracted singers like Johnny Dorelli and Claudio Villa. Nowadays it's a quiet, tranquil property that largely attracts couples with its modern spa. Families, however, may also appreciate the spacious rooms.
Location
In the center of Olbia's historic district
Located in the historic district of Olbia, the Hotel Panorama is within walking distance of numerous archaeological landmarks, including the 11th-century church Basilica of San Simplicio, which is 10 minutes away. The Museo archeological di Olbia and the Museo del mare are both a six-minute walk from the hotel. Sardinian seafood restaurants like Ristorante il Veliero, a three-minute walk away, surround the area near the hotel. Hotel Panorama guests also recommend Su Lionzu, three minutes by foot, for its pizza. The Le Saline beach is a 48-minute drive from the hotel.
Rooms
Bright, spacious rooms are traditionally furnished but have modern amenities like flat-screen TVs and Wi-Fi.
Rooms are furnished with classic Sardinian-style wooden furniture and decor; picture floral bedspreads in red and gold, floor-to-ceiling curtains, and gilded accents on pieces like the desks. Even standard rooms are spacious, and all have marble bathrooms; some have double vanities. All also have mini-fridges, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi.
Suites are charming octagon-shaped rooms with large windows surrounding the bed and whirlpool bathtubs as well as walk-in showers. Guests recommend booking rooms on higher floors to have better views of Olbia. The superior rooms are available with panoramic views of Olbia, with some in view of the 11th century St. Paul's Church. Dry cleaning and laundry services are also available for an extra charge.
Features
The spa here is the highlight, but there's also a small fitness center and a conference room.
The Hotel Panorama's small 24-hour gym is equipped with a flat-screen TV, four large picture windows, a small bathroom, Wii sports access, one bike, one treadmill, one elliptical machines, and a few free weights. The hotel also has a conference room that is available by reservation. The conference room, including its coffee bar, accommodates up to 40 people. However, the spa is the hotel's highlight, complete with a sauna, hot tub, and Turkish bath. The rooftop terrace is also a lovely spot for taking in the views.
