Hotel Vesuvio was the best. Extremely comfortable, very nice staff, terrific location, and very clean. We spent four days there and heartily recommend it. Maybe a little noisy due to great location, but it did not bother us. Loved the staff, very helpful and pleasant.We intend to return.

This is one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. The owner operator goes out of his way to ensure you are well taken care of. The breakfast is varied with lots of good food to start your day. The rooms have been recently renovated and are very comfortable.

Wonderful little hotel
Lovely little hotel run by the nicest people. We had an adjoining family room with beach view for 3 people which would easy be big enough for 4 people. Breakfast were simple but delicious and we also used the small bar for a a nightcap… would definitely use again

This is a delightful hotel well situated by the sea and an easy flat 12 minute walk to the train station - so handy to get to other cities on the Ligurian coast. The ferry departs a short 3 minute walk from the hotel - be sure to arrive 30 minutes before departure in the morning as the queue can be long. The hotel is cheerfully managed by a family , clean comfortable rooms with balconies and a fine breakfast assortment. The beach options are a short walk away too.

The hotel is perfectly located on the beachfront. The owners are super friendly and helped us out with a train booking with a smile. Definitely would stay there again.

An amazing little hotel in Rapallo. The family rooms were super with a separate room for the children to sleep in and a shared bathroom. Our room had a balcony that overlooked the sea and a very comfortable bed. Close to everything and a 2 minute walk to the beach. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Doesn't get any better
Going to the Italian Riviera, this is the place to stay and you should stay in Rapallo. There could be a better location or people who serves your every need. I was there for two full weeks and was sad to sad to go. The owners and staff were awesome. close to ferry (across the street) and the train station a 5 min walk. You can get everywhere. A must for Rapallo 5 stars

Spent 5 nights here and could not have been more pleased. It's only a 5 minute stroll from the train station, so we were able to roll our luggage to the hotel with no problems. The on-site owner makes you feel welcome from the minute that you arrive and he very helpful with information about the area. The view from our balcony was magnificent, overlooking the lungomare, beach and Rapallo Harbor. The room was modern and kept very clean. The bathroom was large and totally updated (important). The breakfast (included) was excellent. We chose Rapallo because of its convenient location, transportation options, and cost-effectiveness. The town met all of our expectations. The Vesuvio exceeded them.

The owners (English speakers) are a very lovely couple. All staff are extremely attentive. The barista/breakfast staffer, Marta (English speaker), was super friendly and knowledgeable of the area. The owners recommended several local places to visit as well as suggesting local restaurants. There are several towns that are walking distance from the hotel. It sits in front of a bay (postcard worthy). Get a room with a sea view and enjoy snacks overlooking the amazing view. The train station is a simple, mostly flat 1/4 mile walk..easy peasy! Get the breakfast because it’s a great spread and can hold you over til late lunch. There’s a gelato shop 200 feet from the property. Lots to do..lots to see..lots to eat!!

We had very attentive and helpful service throughout our stay. Breakfast was a delight every day. Located across from the promenade along the waterfront, the view was most enjoyable. Everything we wanted to do in Rapallo was within an easy walk. When we wanted to take other excursions, the staff was extremely helpful in advising us on transportation. We had a great time in Rapallo mostly because of the location and service from Hotel Vesuvio. I would highly recommend this hotel

Rooms were fine, and we were happy to have a balcony with a partial sea view. However, the nearby construction with loud heavy machinery made sitting on the balcony a little less inviting. Later that evening, after 11, it was quite noisy outside our room. Heard kids playing loudly and lots of trash cans with empty bottles being disposed, both of which surprised me for the late hour. The included breakfast was wonderful. Had most of the croissants, breads, cheeses and meats which you would expect, but we were pleased to also see sweet items such as fruit tarts and pastries.

- I let the front desk move our car and our souvenirs from 3 countries for over $600 were gone. DO not let him do this favor to YOU! - Be aware of the extra small room - Poor wifi - Breakfast stuff are great. The food options get a bit old after a few days but it's not horrible -Great location but it gets very loud until 2AM or later

Response from Luciano on 7 May 2022
Dear Guest, We are very sorry that his experience was so unpleasant. We perfectly remember your arrival and we would like to point out that your holiday took place exactly one year ago and therefore we don't understand why, after so many months, you decided to write only now, accusing us of something so serious. We would like to clarify that we have NEVER provided the "valet service" and we absolutely do not park our customers' cars. That time, the street and the parking in front of the hotel were closed for an event and at YOUR REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE, to be kind and to help you, I accompanied you to find a place for the car, getting into the car near you, while driving. We found a free parking, near the river, 300 meters from the hotel, we would have been by car maybe 2 minutes and we walked back to the structure together. What you wrote in this review is a serious accusation for us, who have been managing this hotel for more than 15 years, always putting respect, honesty and customer hospitality first. I hope that Tripadvisor and Expedia will take action for those who use this platform to defame rather than review
