Hotel Royal Sporting Hotel

Via Olivo 345, 19025 Portovenere, Italy –

Great little hotel, didn't want to leave it! Fab bar, breakfast, pool, tennis etc. everything you need and more.

Rebecca, United Kingdom

The restaurant and restaurant staff were excellent, but as for the hotel itself, not so much. The room was decidedly sub-par -- it shared a balcony with a different room, and was separated only by a thin wooden door from yet another room. I could hear every word spoken in the adjoining room, and presumably vice versa. When I was lying in bed, anyone on the shared balcony was looking at me.

Virginia, United States of America

Best hotel and service after three weeks of holidays in Italy.

Tsvetomir, Belgium

The view was fantastic. The garage worked well. The food and service on the restaurant was good.

Vecersio, Italy

Amazing seaside location and view and massive deep swimming pool. Car parking.

Tim, United Kingdom

Wonderful position within easy walk of restaurants and ferry to cinque terra. Beautiful views from pool, restaurant and rooms that face the sea.

Helen, Australia

Great location and view Staff were friendly and kept rooms clean and tidy

I have been booking through booking.com snd my experience has been excellent to good . The Royal sporting Hotel is one of the hotels you need to visit prior to advertising it to your site .S brief description is basic and dated ,it would have been a very hotel In the 70s and 80s brokentilrs on the floor, the handle of the toilet missing and the shower area barely fitted a person I was unable to turn around to clean myself .They also charged us 20 euros fir the parking which was not mentioned in the site I would not have chosen to go there if I know how it really was as a hotel and would not go again

It is like stepping into a time warp back to 1970s. Clean and tidy but from a by gone era. I can imagine this hotel being fantastic 30 years ago.
Amazing seaside location and view and massive deep swimming pool. Car parking.

“Very disappointed ”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Double Room with Garden View
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Despite best efforts of friendly staff, there was no wifi in the room. Not happy at all as that is part of the price paid. The place harkens to an older, charming era. I knew my room didn’t have a view and it probably didn’t help that my previous night in the same street cost about a third less, huge room, big terrace with table, chairs and deck chairs and an absolutely stunning view. V peaceful. The room at this place has a connecting door and I could hear absolutely everything. Not cool. So no. Not value for money. I expected, and should have got a lot more. I would not return.
Wonderful position within easy walk of restaurants and ferry to cinque terra. Beautiful views from pool, restaurant and rooms that face the sea.

For that price you expect better The WI FI was non existent. In fact the tourist bus had heaps better reception. Really inconvenient and a turn back to the dark ages. Breakfast very ordinary Furniture in rooms was as old as Italy itself. Go and buy some modern furnishings it’s worth it
Great location and view Staff were friendly and kept rooms clean and tidy
