Hotel Italia e Lido Rapallo  

We would stay here again in a heartbeat. A fantastic location, right on the edge of the harbor with a public beach within 25 feet of the front door. The view is magnificent; the harbor, restored fort in the harbor, the town and mountains. The harbor view rooms face west and have sun all day. The restaurant is quite good with table seating on the water. Very comfortable rooms and beds, we were in two rooms. Each with a very generous terrace. The upper rooms have smaller balconies.The rooms have been recently remodeled and the quality of the materials and design is very good. In general a very comfortable place, with a good staff and a location that is to die for. This hotel is not for those looking for modern amenities or to be pampered. It is just for those who appreciate good quality & service in a setting and location that is excellent. We had planned on staying one night, but once there we cancelled our Milan visit and stayed an additional two nights. The staff was very accommodating.

The showers are small and the lift is quite far from the lobby.

So old hotel but frienly staff.

The rooms by the street side looks like a hospital and not at all sunny.

It is warm nice real.... however, the tub was not neat, the bath curtain had mold !!!!

Great location, beautiful views

Complicated air-con

Perfect locality - max 5 minutes walking from the railway station, by the seaside and in the center of the town

My room had windows on a busy street and it was a problem to keep them open in the night. Besides, if you live the hotel earlier than 7.30 you will stay without breakfast (they don't cook it). So if you stay here for more than 1-2 nights it's better to live in rooms with windows on the seaside

The triple room 104 which we had had an access to a magnificent huge terrace offering a spectacular view on the Rapallo bay. Also Lido has it's own private beach. The service was friendly and welcoming.

Our room shared a seafront sun deck with three other rooms which was eqipped with table, chairs, sun lounger beds and sun umbrella. Good breakfast buffet. Friendly helpful reception staff

The location is fantastic by the sea. Be sure to book at room with a balcony and seaview.

The hotel has six park´s sites in front of the hotel, and you have to be there early to get one, and dont leave while you stay there, because then you will lose it and it is almost impossible to get at parking spot in town. The staff at the hotel restaurant was not very nice, and the food didn´t have the highest class, but there are a lot of other restaurants nearby. Go there instead.

Our room was lovely and had a panoramic view of the harbor. The rooms were spacious and well appointed. The location was good as we walked the Cinque Terre on 3 of our 4 day stay and the close proximity to the train made the daily travel easy. It took about 40 minutes. The complimentary breakfasts were very good and the restaurant for evening meal has a lovely outside option on waterfront. Rapallo is a lovely town and we enjoyed the beach, restaurants, shopping and a very good market on our last day. We would recommend the hotel unreservedly and would love to return.

We only have positive comments to make.

Excellent view from sea view room, two minute walk to cafes and resturaunts, lockup parking for our motorbikes.Staff were very cheerful and helpfull.

Location is great, by the old castle. Get a room with sea view.

The view from the balcony. The location of the hotel.

I didn't agree with having to pay to use the hotel's private beach. Fortunately the free beach was just outside the front door.

Nice hotel, very nice room, clean, comfortable, good breakfast, nice location!

nothing major, i just needed to iron some clothes for a wedding during my stay and the hotel didnt have one, so i had to go to dry cleaners, but other than that everything was good
