Hotel Cavour is in the center of Olbia, Sardinia's main sea and air hub, deep in the heart of a bay, well protected from the sea and wind. Free Wi-Fi and an internet point are available in the lobby.
Good selection for breakfast. Very friendly service.
Olbia is all about the sea, and what a glorious turquoise sea it is. As the gateway to Sardinia’s stunning Emerald Coast, this down-to-earth town is often overlooked in favour of the more glamorous resorts. However, it does have attractions of its own.
The simple Basilica of San Simplicio dates to the 11th century and the Church of St Paul the Apostle is also medieval. The National Archaeology Museum houses Roman ships, as well as prehistoric artefacts from the surrounding area.
Sardinia has a wealth of prehistoric structures and one of these – the Tomba dei Giganti Su Monte‘e S’Abe – is near Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport and medieval Pedres Castle. Across the bay is Sa Testa Sacred Well, dating to at least 1200 BC.
Along the coast in Pittulongu are the real attractions – fantastic, unspoilt beaches from where you can see rocky Tavolara Island, a popular diving site. In summer, boats sail there from Isola Bianca Harbour, the arrival point of ferries from the Italian mainland. The harbour’s fishing boats are responsible for the fantastic mussels in Olbia’s seafood restaurants, some of which are amid bars and shops on Corso Umberto – the locals’ favourite passeggiata spot.
The Olbia accommodation on Booking.com includes luxury spa hotels, apartments near the beach and cheap B&Bs.

We stayed in Olbia for two nights when we arrived in Sardegna and three nights when before we departed. Olbia has all the services available you need including banks, supermarkets, restaurants, and green spaces. The city center has many shops and is clean and nice to walk around as traffic is not permitted during peak hours. There are numerous archeological sites and beaches within an easy drive from the city. The buses and trains run regularly. Very nice outdoor market on Tuesdays near the train station where you can purchase fresh local vegetables and fruit, meat and cheeses and souvenirs. There are several historic churches in town. The airport is small but well equipped with a variety of food options, drink and shops. Both arrival and departure went well.

Olbia is a practical town to stay in because you can travel by bus or car to Sardinia’s top attractions. There is a lot of action on the Corso Umberto and surroundings but overall I found only a few good places to eat. The airport is close and easy to reach via public transportation. All in all I would recommend it as a place where you spend the night but you plan your day to day visiting the amazing beaches and hikes.

If you are travelling around northern Sardinia then I would recommend a visit to Alghero rather than Olbia.
There are very few places of interest in Olbia and the traffic network is very hard to negotiate with confusing signage in many parts.

A trip to Olbia felt like visiting the 'real' Italy.
A trip to Olbia felt like visiting the 'real' Italy. Tourists per se are not specially catered for, although there are tours of La Maddalena from Palau, dolphin spotting etc.
But what you do get is a warm welcome from local people.
Lively bars, but not thumping clubs.
- and the food is amazing, with a particular focus on local delicacies as well as fresh fish and seafood.
Easy to get to local beaches (Bados and Pittulongu) which have beach bars. plenty of loungers and parasols to hire for the day. Turquoise waters, sandy beaches.

Olbia is near aeroport, port, beaches, attractions, resorts.
Olbia is near aeroport, port, beaches, attractions, resorts. Lovely evenings in the car-free corso (main road) with restaurants, bars, market, karaoke, entertainers, hotels. 15 minutes drive to amazing Porto Rotondo and San Teodoro.
My husband and I stayed for 3 nights and had the most wonderful time. The apartment was in a stunning location with incredible views to watch the sunrise over the bay. It was clean, quiet and the hosts had left delicious Sardinian treats for us on arrival. It was a quick walk to the beautiful Porto Istana beach, and close to fab restaurants too. There is no WiFi but was not a problem since there is 4G and good reception to be able to use internet from a mobile phone. We highly recommend for an unforgettable stay!
This was a very convenient stay for us in preparation for our flight out of Olbia. The location was perfect, an easy walk to the city center, shops and restaurants and a quick drive drive to the airport. The arrival and check-in process was easy and we were so thankful to be able to check in a little early.
Our room was exactly what we needed, looked brand new, and was very clean. We had an early check-out but that was also no problem as the cafe downstairs opens very early.
Thank you Andrea for a lovely stay in Olbia. Myself and my wife spent 5 nights in Olbia, our room was lovely, clean sheets and towels, good wifi and air conditioning. The house is only a few minutes away from city centre, closest beach is at 3 minutes drive, plenty of restaurants around as well.
Andrea offered a lovely breakfast and he was also very kind to give us tips for the best tourist attractions around. Highly recommend! Thank you for everything :)
Amazing breakfast (delicious cakes, actually one of the best that we tried at various hotels furing our stay). The room was spacious (felt great after so many cramped tiny rooms we stayed at in Sardinia), bed was large and comfortable. The host was very nice. And on top of that free parking in the garden. Amazing place that we would deifnitely recommend and choose again.
Great, cosy place if you are looking for a relaxing stay that is the one. it is 20min drive from Olbia and no more than 30-40min drive from all the great beaches around. The fixed menu at the restaurant is perfect if you want to try traditional Sardinian cuisine. Monica and Alicia were great hosts!! We would definitely come back again.
Well kept grounds and very clean and spacious rooms. Very nice breakfast options, with plenty of variety. The pool area is pretty also, although does currently look out over lots of cranes (out of the hotel’s control of course!). Well located if you plan to beach hop or travel up to Porto Cervo etc., with a fair sized car park.
Access to a lovely beach from the hotel. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. Could get easily to the hotel from Olbia via bus. Was there at the start of the season so the area was quiet but there was still a local supermarket open, pizzarias, bakery etc
The beach is lovely, we were also allowed one free beach day which was very welcome. Not far from the hotel. Breakfast is good but found that you needed to go early to get the best bits as going later we found that some things had run out and not replaced. Good coffee.
Breakfast on the terrace was really nice :)
Nice apartment house located not so far from the city centre (10min walk). We stayed for 2 nights in order to explore beaches around Olbia. I would recommend if someone is looking for an on budget experience. Cheers 🙂
Parking in front of the door, all the equipment/materials as you have at home, excelent location to visit the best beaches of Sardinia, and finding a superhost! Thank you very much for providing us such pleasant stay!
Hotel is modern and has a good location. The drying rack available in the room was very useful for drying clothes after going to the beach. The hotel staff was also very helpful and responds fast via the Booking app.
The location is pretty good which is close to the beach. And the view at the hotel roof is perfect especially in the morning. They provide the beach towel and change everyday. We had a very good time there.
The location is close for driving into Olbia and the airport. Our host was kind enough to pack us a box with breakfast breads since we were going to have an early flight before breakfast.
Very nice and professional hotel. Breakfast was super extensive and fresh. The room clean and neat and the reception as friendly as everywhere on Sardinia. Would recommend when in Olbia.
Beautiful house with lovely, simple and traditional rooms. I wish I could find a similar place closer to the beaches. Nevertheless, it was a great place to finish our Sardinian tour.
