Could hear all the noise from the rest of the occupants in the building (unfortunately a side effect of tiled floors). Access to room only via a tiny winding staircase and staff didn't offer any help, so a bit of a struggle with bags. Rooms are nice but quite basic.

Although the room clearly met my expectations, I can't tell the same about the staff. I didn't expect a reception with a red carpet but at least a smile and some pleasant attitude wasn't too much to ask. They seem to only care about the money and as the hotel well located and comfortable, having customers isn't an issue. So my comments might well be a drop in the ocean. Also, the Internet wasn't working and according to previous reviews it's been like this for a while.
Comfortable and clean room. Great location.

Staff didn’t seem too courteous or interested to attend to you. Perhaps this could be due to the new year eve party that had to be arrange by them at the venue. Anyways from the staff or management no one told us that we needed to reserve a table at the property’s own restaurant despite having arrived a day earlier. When we enquired, we were denied a reservation and no option was offered. We ended up hungry for the night. ( finally if you get room 203, avoid the first bed as you will wake up with stiff back!)
It is at a great place near to the water in this beautiful town. View from the upper deck is beautiful! Easy access to the trails.

Just to let people know there are some steps to some of the rooms but if you don’t expect to have to climb some stairs than you shouldn’t be in Cinque Terre
