"This hotel does not deserve its rating. We had no hot water 2 days running. One restaurant was closed and the other fully booked so that we could not have dinner there, despite trying to reserve the previous day. The decoration needs a refresh (see photos of dining room and bar) and the corridor carpets are stained (see photo). The beach was over-crowded. Most of the staff were uncharming. The a/c was feeble. We were told to ask for a partial refund through Expedia but this was then refused. Try...
"Vanessa and everyone I came across at the front desk were lovely, helpful, and friendly. The hospitality is wonderful! Would definitely be coming back!"
"Wonderful friendly welcome and we enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend ... and we'll come back when in the area. We booked a lovely room with balcony and sea view, nice stay and the friendliest of staff everywhere."
"This was an excellent choice for a day trip to Cinque Terra. Shert walk to the station and then 10 minutes to start Cinque Terra tour from the north. Much quieter than La Spezia and local secret I think. Right on the beach. The hosts were lovely people and though I booked the day later it was no trouble to change for me. They set a high standard in hospitality."
"Really convenient, easy access, clean, room was spacious, charming, clean. Loved the bathroom which was modern. In the middle of Portofino. Loved the place."

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay in this apartment was absolutely delightful! It was the perfect cozy spot for us, offering a comfortable and well-appointed home for the week. I slept in the room with the two twin beds, which were incredibly comfortable. I loved waking up to step onto the terrace right outside my room, enjoying a coffee and a peaceful morning moment. The apartment’s location was fantastic, allowing us to walk everywhere and soak in all that Sestri Levante has to offer. We explored various hikes recommended in the guidebook provided by the host, which helped us get familiar with the area. The espresso machine and coffee were a treat and greatly appreciated. The apartment was just what we needed to feel at ease and relax while exploring the surroundings. On the first morning, we woke up to the vibrant Saturday market in the little square next to the apartment, where we picked up wonderful snacks to enjoy throughout the week when we weren’t dining at one of the town’s fantastic restaurants. We also walked to the train station a few times and took trips to Levanto, which we absolutely loved. It was an incredible opportunity to immerse myself in this beautiful region while staying in a place that felt so welcoming, as if I were an integral part of the community there."
"We had a great three night stay at Alba's apartment with two friends.Location is excellent with a beautiful view and very close proximity to bars and restaurants. The town is great to explore and you are not that far a walk from the train station.Apartment has excellent air-con when needed and the view from the lounge/TV room is the best.Thoroughly recommended."
"A lovely little hotel near the beach in Sestri Levante. We were there during the week just before Andersen festival so it was quiet.
Beautiful suite with views of the beach. I wouldn’t call it a luxury hotel, but it’s extremely charming.
Breakfast was included, but beach access wasn’t. The location is very central and great.
My one complaint is that the sofa bed wasn’t all that comfortable for a tall person. "
