Hellvetia had the perfect location! Attention to detail inside and out! Lovely breakfast offered inside and outside. Upgraded to an ocean view room during our off season stay. All rooms have balconies with table/tablecloth and chairs. The sheets and bed were heaven! The pool was a delight! The outdoor lounge areas are more than you could want on all levels! Quiet. Bayview bars (2) onsite. Short walk to restaurants & town. Catholic Church very close. Bikes available - take advantage of a seascape ride along the seawall. Comp ride to train day of departure.

Not much to complain about - the elevator is a little slow (and teeny-tiny), but really there are very few negatives for this property.
Excellent from top to bottom - amazing location, pools, food, comfy beds. Charming rooms with beautiful views of the bay. The service really makes this hotel stand out, from checkin to checkout, the staff are amazing!

The location is beautiul and the staff very friendly and helpful. Great restaurant overlooking the Bay of Silence. Sea view room was very elegant and spacious. Having two lovely heated pools overlooking the bay makes it really special, yet you can also walk the two yards to the beach for a swim in the sea if you prefer. Thorougly recommended. Sestri Levante is one of my favourite places on this coast.
