The location was amazing, right on the piazza by the waterfront. The room was very comfortable. I would definitely love to stay there again. It was easy to roll my suitcases down the hill to the entrance, although there are lots of stairs up to the rooms.

Superb location in the main square of Vernazza which is directly adjacent to the beach & bay. Our room (5) has a private en-suite bathroom - some rooms have shared/external bathrooms. Cleaning was excellent and unobtrusive - towels etc changed daily. Alessio and the rest of the staff were superb. Friendly, full of advice when required and always available. They went to another level of excellence when we made a mistake with our check-out date and went sightseeing instead of vacating the room! They were very accommodating - giving us plenty of time to return and sort ourselves out without any criticism, complaint or diminished friendliness. They even rang round alternative accommodation in the town to try to get us a place to stay for our "homeless" night - and didn't charge for late checkout. On top of all that, for Summer 2022 only, the local tax is on them! We highly recommend Locanda Barbara.

Martin United Kingdom

Our room served its purpose for one night, the bed was comfy and I was happy to have a bathroom inside our room as an upgrade. Location was great. Staff was friendly.

Anne United Kingdom

The location was amazing and the room has a good size and had gorgeous views. The room was clean, and had AC. The recepcionist helped a lot with our luggage and the after-hours check-in instructions were quite good.

Elena Netherlands

The location is very central and allows to enjoy Vernazza in full. Both in the evening, and earlier in the morning, the location is a big advantage as the little town can be enjoyed once all the tourists have left for the day or haven't yet arrived. The room is clean, also the bathroom is clean. The space is limited, but the room is in an historic building.

Freya United Kingdom

in the heart of Vernazza, the management so friendly and helpful.

Dale South Africa

Amazing location - right on the main square next to the harbour - we loved being only a minute walk away from a swim in the ocean. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Louise Australia

The location of the building was wonderful as it was right by the water and very easy to get to. The accomodation itself however was all the way up the top of the building with the final set of stairs very narrow and hard to go up with luggage. Very well priced considering the price of other accomodation in Vernazza and with a decent sized room/bathroom.

Angela Australia

The location absolutely excellent, the host and staff are very friendly.

  • Where would we park our car?
    HOW TO GET ALBERGO BARBARA (preferably by train): By car: Coming on the highway from the north you take the exit Levanto / Carrodano, if you come from the South or Parma you exit at La Spezia, where you have to follow the road signs towards "Cinque Terre". In both cases, after an hour of winding roads, you get 1.5 km from Vernazza. In Vernazza the use of the cars is not allowed and the visitors must park their vehicles in 2 toll parkings (one municipal and one private / 15 euros each day) to 1,5 km and more from the center. From there there is a connection with the village by bus (or free minivan if you opt for private parking), approximately from 10am to 7pm. Info availability and reservation :"Vernassoa" Private Parking We recommend to park your car in La Spezia or Levanto and travel to Vernazza by train.
