Good location and views. Rooms are outdated, A/C didn't work, staff not friendly.
Lillian, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

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.

美麗的海景

飯店提供停車位，但房間稍微小又貴，但以性價比來看，此飯店在這地區算不錯的

2/10 Poor

I stayed 2 night with no air conditional working properly at all. I had to open the door to have some cold. The toilet wasn’t working and they repaire it the last night after that I complained 5 times. The only response it the receptionist is (you see the hotel is old). Breackfat is not perfect at all. No frais juice at all and the crois and bad quality

Bene, dai

La posizione è buona, e l'albergo molto tranquillo. La struttura è veramente datata, ma tutto sommato il soggiorno è stato piacevole

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.

Nydelig hotel, flott område

Nydelig sted, flott utgangspunkt for å utforske Cinque terre, vi hadde tre nydelige dager der. Supert basseng, med bar. Greie priser. Anbefales!!

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.

Bei unserem Aufenthalt hatte es sehr laute Reisegruppen, so konnten wir nur sehr schlecht schlafen. Das Hotel hat eine sehr schöne Lage, mit etwas veralteten Einrichtungen

Le personnel au top et un cadre magnifique! Quelque modernisations a faire au niveaux de l'Hôtel. Au niveaux des chambres surtout, pour un 4* il faut un peu plus de qualité. Bon sejour, je retournerai sans hésiter!
CatarinaMendes, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

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.
