We had a wonderful stay at Piccolo - excellent staff who went out of their way to assist us with everything and a great location. The private terrace above the bay is a magic spot to relax at after a morning spent in Portofino.

The property was the most beautiful of all properties that we stayed at during our 3 weeks in Europe. The room was large with a beautiful bathroom, lots of character and the most wonderful views. The included breakfast could not be faulted and due to an early check out on our last day, the staff put together a breakfast box to takeaway so that we did not miss out. The staff were friendly and hospitable. The accommodation was conveniently located, and easy walk to town and the train station...

Nice hotel within walking distance to the train station, the town centre and Marina. We walked from the hotel all the way to Portofino about an hour easy walk. A choice of good nearby restaurants. The hotel staff were always helpful. Breakfast buffet had many good choices. Able to borrow bikes to get arround town. Small gym also available for use by hotel guests was a nice suprise. Had a very enjoyable stay.

Tiny bathroom with everything needed. Minuscule shower with curtain. Room 56 was a single for me but had a double bed and swivel door to tiny balcony with view over the castle and bay. The "distressed" paint effect on the wardrobe makes it look dirty but it isn't. But you can hear the waves at night.
Leila and Laura in reception were very friendly and efficient and spoke great English
Have to say the breakfast was ordinary apart from the fresh orange juice, squeeze-yourself. But get there...

This is a very new property and was lovely in a beautiful area.
The restaurant was lovey also , but the menu could be a little more simple.
The car parking which is on the property is overly expensive €45 per day - excessive.
Staff were very friendly and professional.
