Stay at Elena!

Elena is small single room, With a small but adequate shower, it's a bit hard to maneuver in but was hot and clean. Everything spotless and clean, view was superb especially for price, nice laminate floors no icky carpet. Wifi drops out occasionally but you just have to renter username and password. Can easily hear neighbors with the marble floors so try and be respectful. Morning coffee and breakfast on the patio overlooking the sea was so pleasant.

Bellissima vista sul golfo e sul paese

Ho cercato un albergo confortevole con parcheggio per potermi muovere comodamente con i mezzi pubblici senza dover pensare all'automobile. Colazione ottima e abbondante servizio efficiente. Lo consiglio senza dubbio.

Pleasant stay, but WiFi, bed & pillows: rated 2/3

We enjoyed our 2 night stay at hotel Elena to wast hours the fireworks very much. The real negatives were the mattress and the pillows that were awful and the archaic internet that required continuous signing on, at least 15 to 20 times a day!!! The personnel rating between 3.5 and 4.5. Good job!

Hotel Elena - upeat näkymät lahdelle

Hotelli ylitti odotukset ja merinäköala ylimmän kerroksen huoneesta oli verraton. Aamiainen oli keskiverto italialaishotelliin verrattuna huomattavast parempi ja aamiaishuoneen terassilta oli mukava katsella lahden heräämistä uuteen päivään. Terassilla ei kuitenkaan kannata jättää aamiaista vartioimatta, sillä siivekkäät varkaat ovat silmänräpäyksessä paikalla, jos poistut hakemaan lisää kahvia. Huone oli tilava, siisti ja hotelli sijaitsee lähellä rantaa sekä keskustaa. Wi-Fi toimi katkonaisesti ja heitti ulos hetken jälkeen, jolloin piti kirjautua uudelleen verkkoon. Voin kuitenkin suositella yöpymistä hotellissa, mieleen jäivät erityisesti pimeät illat parvekkeella nauttien limoncinoa ja katsellen merta sekä Portofinon niemimaata.

Ok

Ok hotel i en tråkig stad. Hotellet behöver renovera rummen. Parkett i en toa är inte så smart. Rejält fuktskadat. Det positiva var frukosten och hur nära parkeringen låg.

Piacevole hotel con vista sul mare

l'hotel Elena si trova a Recco, quella che viene definita "la capitale gastronomica della Liguria", e costituisce un buon approdo per gite e scoperte in una delle zone più belle del Levante. L'albergo è semplice ma confortevole, noi abbiamo avuto una stanza molto luminosa, con due piccoli balconi che si affacciavano sul mare, e un letto molto comodo. Pochi fronzoli, ma per una sosta al mare niente che non andasse bene. Il bagno aveva sanitari nuovissimi e funzionanti, cosa di cui purtroppo in Liguria abbiamo talvolta sentito la mancanza! Da segnalare: l'ottima la colazione e la gentilezza del personale. Assolutamente da consigliare a chi non cerca il lusso ma apprezza comodità e cordialità.

Rustig hotel aan zee. Treinstation dichtbij.

Vanuit Recco kun je veel mooie plaatsen bezoeken. Gaat ook bootje naar twee plaatsen in de buurt. Kunt ook naar Camogli lopen (klein half uur, wel langs weg maar met voetpad langs weg). Prachtig plaatsje.
