No breakfast due to time of year. View was great but steps a little much. Restaurant was also excellent.

Thomas United States of America

Absolutely loved the location and the private deck overlooking the sea. The breakfast and wine bar staff on the deck were very pleasant and the food was good. It was a very quaint arrangement of guesthouses and fun to explore. We had plenty of privacy.

Steve United States of America

The location is great. Staff very attentive. Only minor complaint is the hotel description does not make clear the extraordinary number of steep steps are required to get to and from the hotel from ground level.

Mark United States of America

View from the various terraces was great. friendly the staff was friendly and when the tables at the restaurant werr full, they quickly reserved one and got it for us.

John United States of America

Wonderful breakfast on the patio. At least 100 stairs up to room 503. Shower nice, water pressure lacking. Very clean! Clothes line out window very handy. Beautiful view!

Michelle United States of America

The 111 steps up to our room. Breakfast was also very yummy!

Robert United States of America

Breakfast was very nice, large selection of food, self-serve coffee/espresso (which I think is practical-I don’t like to trouble busy wait staff with coffee refills) and on a patio overlooking the beautiful Ligurian Sea. The room was small but adequate for only a 2 night stay. A small refrigerator would have been nice.

Glenda United States of America

Very good location, very quiet in the evening even though the main area was still busy. Room was not fancy but quite comfortable, as was the bed. Nice (included) breakfast every morning high up on the patio overlooking the Ligurian Sea. Nice view of the mountains from our two windows. We were happy with our 3 night stay.

Joseph United States of America

Breakfast deck had a spectacular view of the ocean. Was also nice to sit there for the evening wine tasting.

Crystal Hong Kong

Staff were great breakfast on the terrace was spectacular for the food and view

    Asked about: Triple Room
  • is there a laundry nearby that would wash and dry our clothes? Also we are 80 year old customers, are there rooms with not so many steps? We will be coming in late August next year.

    Yes, the laundry is in the top of Village (2 minutes by walk), our Hotel is under the Castle so you've a lot of steps to climb up all rooms are there.....we hope to see you next year, best regards Gianni Franzi
