Fantastic view and nice location. Easy walk to restaurants and port. Hotel is quite dated but clean. Unfortunately, most of the staff was very unfriendly and asking simple questions seemed to be an annoyance to most of them. Such a disappointment since all of our other experiences in Italy were fabulous.

Gedateerd Hotel op top plek met oude grandeur

Top plek in gedateerd hotel ,personeel vriendelijk en behulpzaam , eten goed zowel ontbijt als diner ( ook diner prijs normaal) , kamer klein en oud kort bed en 2 oude harde stoeltjes echt jammer dit geld niet waard , zwembad met badmeester dat is dan weer goed wel om 18.30 dicht . eigen parkeer plaats voor €20 per dag is wel aan te bevelen ivm drukke omgeving , het is Italiaanse oude grandeur en daar betaal je voor dus dat snappen wij niet helemaal we zijn in verglijbaar hotel weest maar dan 30% goedkoper dan klopt het wel maar dit is te duur .

Séjour du 28 au 30 juillet 2019

Très bel hôtel au bord de mer, mais un 4 étoiles un peu vieillissant Situé à quelques pas du centre. Idéal pour les excursions en bateau. Joli petit restaurant typique dans les alentours. Garage sous l’hôtels pour votre voiture . Piscine à l’eau de mer sur la terrasse avec vue sur la baie.

Bästa läget för att utforska Cinque Terre!

Perfekt läge när man skall utforska Cinque Terre. Även Porto Venere som by är väldig pittoresk och trevlig. Fantastisk natur samt möjlighet till båtturer och vandringsleder Väldigt trevlig och tillmötesgående personal. Rummen håller inte riktigt samma klass som resten men är ändå helt ok.

Non tornerò!

L'hotel non può essere considerato un 4 stelle, anzi! La struttura è molto datata: in camera ho trovato pavimenti rotti, infissi ed arredi anni '60/'70 (vecchi, non vintage!) rovinati e scrostati, cassetti dei comodini e dell'armadio rivestiti di carta (come faceva mia nonna), tinteggiature"spugnate" stile anni '70; sui tavoli della colazione roselline di plastica scolorite in vasetti di peltro; nelle parti comuni divani scrostati e tavolinetti con cromature arrugginite; la colazione è buona, ma niente di particolarmente ricercato o raffinato (tutto con le "macchinette"); poca chiarezza anche nel pagamento della prenotazione (poi chiarito, ma che ha creato equivoci). Nessun upgrade, nonostante l'hotel e la SPA quasi completamente liberi; al momento del check-in né in nessun altro momento ci è stata data informazione riguardo l'uso della palestra e l'accesso alla SPA; a noi non interessava, ma a nessuno è venuto in mente di offrirci comunque informazioni in merito. Non torneremo.
