“Highly Recommend Hotel L'Approdo in Rapallo!”

We had a wonderful experience at this hotel, located in a beautiful area just steps away from the beach, with stunning views from the room. Although the hotel is officially in Rapallo, it’s actually closer to Santa Margherita Ligure — about a 10-minute walk to the train station. The hotel is very clean, and the staff is friendly and welcoming, which made our stay even more enjoyable. We felt relaxed and well taken care of throughout our vacation. The location is also perfect for exploring the region, with easy access to Cinque Terre, Portofino, and Camogli — all reachable by train or boat. We definitely plan to return! It’s the perfect spot for a peaceful getaway on the Italian Riviera.

“Views, great location for exploring region and very clean”

I absolutely loved the hotel, maybe it is one of the cleanest hotels I have ever visited and I spend many nights in hotels every year. Also, it was the most comfortable bed and if we had not been with a motocycle I would have definitevly tried to negotiate with owners to sell me at least the thinner thing they had over materasses :) I am interested in model and company that produces it! Hotel is in great location for free beach (actually two free beaches at 4 minutes) and with great bus connections to all places in region (you can also walk 14minutes to Santa Margharita or 17min to Rapallo) . Smaller , cute village with several restaraunats San Michele di Pagana is only 10min by foot. We had a balcony (and a fridge) which makes a great combination for a drink before supper. I peeked at breakfast (looked yummy) but we are too slow in the morning so we did not use it. Please note that you have to inquire about the parking, there is a possibility to park on spot but maybe sometimes it is reserved, just ask in advance. Motobikes are always welcome and free to park. We visited Portofino (bus +boat), Sestri Levante (moto , great scenic ride), Rapallo, Camogli and even local festa of San Lorenzo, small village uphill. Just because of the very good hotel location. Oh...almost forgot...aircondition strong and silent!

“Overall very pleasant”

This hotel is lovely and central for exploring the area, the station is a five minute walk as is the seafront and all the restaurants. We loved taking the boat to Portofino which is very easy.

This hotel is lovely and central for exploring the area, the station is a five minute walk as is the seafront and all the restaurants. We loved taking the boat to Portofino which is very easy. The receptionist was very friendly. The hotel rooms are a little tired, usual wear and tear, however it was very clean. It is noisy but that is to be expected in a town centre. Breakfast was a little disappointing, we were not told we could get fresh cappucino from waiter and put up with cold filter coffee they only hot option is scrambled eggs........but they were cold! I did see the waiter make fresh for a couple so they are very obliging. We would come back to this hotel for the staff and the convenience.

Stayed here for a few days at the end of September after visiting family in the area. We had a room at the end on the 3rd floor with a beautiful sea view. Room and bathroom ( especially the shower) were quite small, as was the balcony. However the beds were oh so comfortable, tv was fine with an English station, air con was brilliant ( until the last day when they changed the temperature to heating!?). Wi-Fi spot on! Cleaning staff very accommodating. Quite a walk to get anywhere but a bus stops outside the hotel to go to Santa Margherita and Rapallo. ( get the tickets from hotel reception). There is a small supermarket and a Pizzeria restaurant ( best food we had while there) a short walk to the left… and also the beach with a safe swimming cove. Although we felt a little remote the view and the staff made this a hotel we would highly recommend.
