Best location in town.
Helpful, friendly and courteous staff.

The location was great! Our balcony is huge, and over the main road, with an amazing view of the water and Brown Castle! We people/car-watch. So easy to walk to the main Piazza, has a private beach (though pebbly). So convenient for the bus.
Just a 7-minute walk from Paraggi Beach and 0.9 miles from Castello Brown, LEremoRifugio escursionistico10 min steep walk features accommodations in Portofino, with a garden.

Very beautiful location & view and unique historical site surrounded by nature. Amazing food!
The only small thing the accommodation should change is that the rooms cannot be locked.

Portofino was beautiful and lived up to expectations.
Portofino was beautiful and lived up to expectations. However, it is tiny and the weather was not great which limits what there is to do. Two nights rather than three would have been enough.
Also it really is expensive. Not a place to go if you are on a budget.
My husband and son had brilliant food - particularly DaV Mere - but they love fish and seafood. Not great for vegetarians.

We enjoyed walking and getting around but Portofino is really small so don't spend more than one night there. I was expecting more people to be around but it was really empty after the sunset. People come in boats to know the harbour but they don't stay around after so it's very quiet (at least in April when I went). There aren't that many options for good food but the restaurant "Trattoria Tripoli" was a highlight of our stay in Portofino. Probably the best Frutti di mare spaghetti I have had in my life!

Portofino had been on the bucket list for some time so the expectations were high.... and so they were met ! A very very nice little village on the cost with all typical medditerrainian stuf. 1 day should be enough to cover it as a small place. Can recommend to travel here off season as no crowds and safe to move around. The Restaurants might seem a bit expencive but then they are good !

Portofino might have been a lovely place in the 60s - today it is a poor cartoon of a fisherman's village. Ridiculously overpriced (2 spritz + 0.5l water 33€) but still overcrowded. Seems there are a lot of people, that hope some of the yacht owners wealth will be shared with them if they get close...

Portofino is a hipe and we wanted to go there once, but unless COVID it was too much overcrowded.
It is a very small village around a harbour. Lovely with a lot of high fashion boutiques and restaurants along the harbor.
During July 2020 a lot of shops were closed but most restaurants were open - although only the once with the best rating on google and tripadviser were full, so we were glad to have a reservation.
the light at sunset is beautiful too - but if it does not have to be Portofino - there are other small beautiful fisher villages which are not so famous and expensive.
This apartment was ideally located, only a short walk from the centre of Portofino, in a nice quiet location. The owners could not have been more helpful, and were always on hand to answer questions or provide recommendations. The apartment was spotlessly clean, with a comfortable bed and great shower. There was everything you could ever need in an apartment. And the air conditioning was really good. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.
The Location is amazing. Perfect Location. I dont think there is a hotel in portofino with a better location than this hotel right in the center. Our room exceeded our expectations. it was very large and cleaned! The staff are very friendly!! The price we paid for what we got in an expensive town as Portofino is very fair! Thankyou Nazionale hotel for making our stay very memorable.
Fantastic hotel that’s well situated right in the heart if Portofino. All exclusive shops and the port of Portofino are just in walking distance. The hotel offered an extensive breakfast and it was possible to have dinner on the hotel’s terrace overlooking the sea. Our personal highlight was the private beach and the sea view from our room which was instagramable.
The property was very clean and upgraded. The location is a mile walk to Portofino and 5 minutes bus ride to Santa margaritas. A couple of restaurants and a small tiny mart is close by. The parking was very convenient but cost 25 euros. The host Nick was very helpful and allowed us to stay until 12 pm. The view is great .
Absolutely fantastic position with unrivalled views of Portofino! The photos on booking.com are exactly what you see :)). With FOUR windows to drool over this most beautiful place. Thank you Alex for your friendly welcome. We highly recommend this apartment so you can really Be in Portofino, not just pass through.
You book this for the views! Fantastic. Thomas is a wonderful,host. Portofino is so beautiful, one of the best. In the evening when all the dayturists are gone it is even better. Clean and averything you need. Many steps to reach the place. Internet working perfect. Nice sittinggroups outside to enjoy to views.
Together with my husband we stayed here. We were upgraded to the junior suite which had breathtaking view. The hotel is very clean , suite was spacious, beautiful landscaping, wonderful pool, and last but not least very friendly staff! No other accomodation tops up to this property in Portofino.
Service was impeccable- very high end and old school. Such lovely and friendly staff all around. The location is idyllic it is better than you can ever expect. This hotel has the perfect view and is very conveniently located, with easy path access to Portofino proper.
The property was a calm retreat away from the road, with beautiful views out to sea. Our room was large and clean with a modern feel. The homemade breakfasts are tasty and the staff were very friendly. I would recommend to anybody wanting to stay near Portofino.
Carlotta was an exceptional host. Nothing was too much trouble. she drove us down & back to Portofino as and when we wished, as only residents cars are permitted in the park. She was very helpful & friendly.
The views from the property were stunning .
Location. excellent ! the place was immaculate. we were 4 adults and PortifinoVip welcomed and accomadated our requests as there was some misunderstanding with booking.com. they did not make much of the problem ! very helpful staff with smiles
The property is in a great location just steps from the harbor on a quiet street. It had the best shower I’ve had in Italy (great water pressure and plenty of hot water). Check in and check out were very quick and easy.
the location perfect, the view amazing
no Acs, nice for one night only. very important to know the hotel up to hill and you have to go upstairs more than 180 steps. don’t take any bag. only small hand bag
The location is incredible, right on the harbour in Portofino with the breakfast room overlooking that. we had a wonderful view. The breakfast was good with various options.
Very special refuge tucked away from the bustle of Portofino. A restored monastery with medieval appointments (in a good way) staffed with very kind people
