Great location a short easy walk from the station and right near the beach. The room was spacious and very well laid out for storage options. We had a double room with a sitting room and it was worth it . Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom was a bit of a tight fit but recently renovated by its appearance and very clean. A good breakfast with enough choices and regular top ups was included. This could be taken inside or in the lovely garden courtyard. The staff were all delightful , helpful, welcoming and efficient. I am sorry I didn’t get the name of the lovely woman at reception but her sense of humour was very welcoming. Monterosso is a gorgeous location although often busy with crowds during the day. I would love to return for longer than 2 days and hopefully it would be to this hotel.

“Good value accommodation”

Facilities wise I would probably rate it 3 star but the staff are all lovely and make a difference. Our room on the 3rd floor missed out on beach views - not sure whether those on the front of the building get a view or whether it’s blocked by the building in front. However too was very clean and... more

Facilities wise I would probably rate it 3 star but the staff are all lovely and make a difference. Our room on the 3rd floor missed out on beach views - not sure whether those on the front of the building get a view or whether it’s blocked by the building in front. However too was very clean and the bedroom spacious but let down by a bathroom so snug you almost needed to stand with one foot in the bidet to dry yourself. Good breakfast included and spacious courtyard to sit around in. It does have a lift - helps with those suitcases. It’s in the “new” area of Monterosso which I think is better for accommodation. Set back maybe 50m from the beach and an easy walk from the train station

First, let me start with the things that I liked about this hotel. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Any request was quickly attended to. The location is just about perfect. Very close to the sea, lots of restaurants, and incredibly beautiful scenery. I liked the complimentary breakfast. There were lots and lots of choices. Lots of fruits, breads, and pasteries. There is a nice cappuccino machine. The water pressure and temperature for the sink and shower were excellent. There were plenty of outlets available in the room. Now, let me tell you why I rated this hotel only a 3. The rooms are very plain and actually kind of shabby. There is no decoration on the walls. The tv is very small compared to most hotels. There is a refrigerator in my room, but it barely cools water lower than room temperature at the highest setting. The hairdryer in the bathroom has got to be from 1970. I have fairly thin, short hair, and it took forever to get it dry. I hate to be mean, but the owners really need to invest some cash into this hotel. It is advertised as a 4 star hotel, but I don't see how it got that rating.

The location was fantastic. Very close to the train station and the beach. There were lots of restaurants nearby. The breakfast was great and included lots of variety. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There was a nice sitting area outside. The air conditioning in the room was a much needed relief in late July. In the room I found the walls to be quite thin which made the room noisy. The hotel is older and definitely dated.
