"Loved it. We wanted to stay in one of the cinque terre villages, but ended up here and we were SO glad. Take the ferry from Porto venere which is about a 15 minute walk from the hotel. Hotel staff will help you understand the ferry and times. Town of Porto Venere was one of our favorites."

"We stayed in 6 hotels in Italy. This was our favorite. Giovanni was the property manager. First, he met us at the parking garage and put our luggage in a motorized cart. He walked us through the small town to the property and pointed out a good restaurant. There is a set of stairs to the property. Then another set of stairs to the room. The property has a small lift for luggage. The room was beautiful and nicely set up. We had a balcony. Not all rooms have the balcony but the view is over a courtyard. The breakfast included croissants, fruit, eggs, pastries, and yogurt. Giovanni was there to answer all our questions. We even met the owner. He was very proud of his property. The town is so much quieter than the Chinque Terre towns. I'm so happy we stayed there. There is a castle at the far end of the street. There is a ferry that takes you to all but one town. Those towns are full of tourists. This town is a bit removed. We did lots of shopping here. And the food choices were excellent. We wish we had stayed here longer!!"
