I write from the perspective of an English family; Breakfasts. We tried hard as the buffet style breakfast had quite a reasonable selection but, it was crawling with flies and sometimes wasps too. None of the other guests seemed to mind but for us, sadly, it was a no go. Perhaps it was just us? Mosquitoes. The hotel tried hard. Citronella candles everywhere (which, in the evenings make it pretty too) but even with our max strength Jungle Juice DEET sprays poured on to every inch of our browning bodies, we were still stung quite a bit. The Portofino Suite only has 1 toilet facility. As such, if receiving guests, they will be using the only bathroom. Having 1 'loo' for a couple is fine. But when a small family is faced with the only 'loo' being in the bathroom, things can get quite desperate, especially in the morning when the shower is being used and someone else just woke up and is desperate! Most other suites we have enjoyed normally have a separate guest loo.

I write from the perspective of an English family; We stayed in the Portofino Suite which includes a bedroom, living room, bathroom and a terrace. The rooms were lovely. Spacious with all the luxuries one would expect in a 5 star hotel. Shampoos, soaps, conditioners and lotions. A range of coffee and teas. Still and sparkling water. A small fridge. The air conditioning kept the room cool and the humidity down although we couldn't adjust it to make it any cooler. But that wasn't an issue. The room overall was very comfortable. The chamber maids and cleaners did a really great job especially considering a family of 3 and the mess we often made! The reception staff were always friendly and very helpful. If the hotel didn't have it, they were quick to provide a solution. The pool is lovely and has various jets that will provide different massages and or keep kids entertained for a few hours. The homemade ice cream is amazing! And the cocktails were fabulous too. During 'Aperitif hour' which starts at 17:30, the most amazing nibbles can be ordered. (I have included a photo of the nibbles. This is just for 1 person!) The hotel is located 200 meters or so from the station with a very easy walk. It's also about 100 meters to the beach and promenade. Come out the hotel and walk around the building literally opposite and a small supermarket can be found. The hotel is smack bang in the middle of everything. Both the living room and the bedroom in the Portofino suite have quite large Samsung TV screens. Easy to get to the ports and plug in a Fire Stick. If needs be, go into the settings and change the audio language to English. Some channels offer their programs in Italian, English and other languages. The hotel overall is very clean. Great helpful staff and so easy! Quiet in the evenings as no 'entertainment' is provided. Very relaxing. Super value for money.

Pool closes at 18:30 (not on the dot) but would have liked to enjoy the pool longer. Nonetheless thankful for it.

Amazing location, private parking available, useful small fridge in room. Attic room was big and comfortable with access to roof terrace, practical to dry towels and sit out peacefully. Within real walking distance from the beach. Beautiful food.

Nothing, loved it there.

A lovely, smallish hotel in Deiva Marina. We were made to feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Our room was clean with a great sized comfortable bed, fridge and balcony. The bathroom was spacious with a good shower and plenty of fluffy bath towels. The room was cleaned daily. A lovely quiet pool area and outdoor seating, again well maintained and very clean and tidy. We would definitely recommend and hope to visit and stay again.

Best hotel in town. The best buffet breakfast I've had yet. They have homemade gelato.

The property was very nice, and our room with balcony overlooking the pool very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It was perfectly placed for the train and Cinque Terre, and parking onsite was a bonus.

Lovely hotel, very comfortable and friendly. Staff could not have been more helpful and pleasant. The breakfast buffet was most impressive! We especially appreciated the on-site parking.

Perfect base for our trip to Liguria. Excellent and kind staff and facilities. The restaurant food is fantastic with superb fish menu. Beds are comfortable and nice balconies if you select this option…

Deiva Marina itself seems a little ‘tired’. The hotel is by far the best thing there.

Such a welcoming sweet hotel - like an oasis at the end of a long hot drive.

Really nice environment with lovely people, easy going. You can go on nice bike rides for free. There’s a really nice pool and breakfast and dinner is good. We had the superior triple room which featured a bubble bath. Recommended!

The beds are a bit hard. The rooms we stayed in were very clean but basic.

Great personnel in the reception - very helpful. There is a generous breakfast with lots to choose between. Big pool good for swimming. The train station is very close if you want to go to the Cinque terra or other places in the region

The hotel is a 3 minute stroll from the station which connects you to the Cinque Terre with ease. The pool is a great spot to relax and the staff make you feel very welcome.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms were impeccably clean and incredibly comfortable. The quality of the linen and towels was top-notch, which added to the overall comfort of my stay. The breakfast offered a delightful surprise with its amazing variety of options, making it a perfect start to each day of my visit. I would highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. There was a small kitchen with cooktop as well which was very useful for heating milk for my daughter.

I didn't like that we only stayed there for 2 nights.

We love everything about the place!!! The owners are very kind, accomodating, welcoming. The room we got was great, with last minute booking, we got the attic room with a cool solar roof window. Very clean bathroom with fancy shampoo and body wash, soap that they provide. They also have a restaurant and food is amazing! Breakfast was included with the booking. Most of all, they have home made gelato that are so delicious! I had 4 altogether for our 2 nights stay. Homemade desserts were delicious, we had the tiramisu and panacotta, to die for! I don't usually write this long when I review any of my hotel experience. I had to do it for Hotel Clecia!!! I forgot to mention it is walking distance to the beach! Loving people, thank you Constanza, Ana, Luca, Ludo(sorry if I misspelled your name) Ricardo...to name a few of the staff, til our next visit to Deiva Marina!
