Tired building and facilities, but it was a good ‘faded glory’ feel.

Lovely position overlooking the town and good to have parking. Great staff.

They seem to make a side business of the parking lots.

Great place with character, lovely roof terrasse.

Even tough this is not the case for us , the location may be a concern for elderly people or people who does not like walking. Although it is close to center , you need to walk a bit and it may be become difficult in the warm and humid days due to the location.

The building itself is amazing. The staff was welcoming. Breakfast is good. Has a parking place which is important if you are travelling by car.

This is not a complaint but observations. This is not a suitable location for anyone with mobility issues or a large car to park. The access to many residences locally is steep and winding and this hotel is no exemption! The quality is dated yet charming and typical of it's age, without frills or modernisation.

Great history and character. Welcoming and friendly staff and a reasonably convenient location.

The breakfast was simple for this kind of hotel. The space for parking was not big enough.

Hotel has a very nice interior. The rooms are spacious and clean. Very professional staff.

No tea or coffee in the room. Also safe not attached to anything and you could just walk out of the room with it.

Very friendly and helpful. Parking as we had driven from England . The weather was very hot but the air conditioning was excellent

It was booked last minute due to a train strike. Were leaving early so cannot comment on breakfast, but room was clean and quiet. Staff efficient.

The road to the hotel is fairly busy and narrow so walking along it is not particularly pleasant - however, both directions, you only have to go a short distance before there is a pedestrian path into town. There is road noise which was easily managed by closing the door to the balcony.I expected a higher price for the Portofino area and indeed this was our most expensive night.

The room decor was quality, older style, very roomy, beds comfortable. Balcony was great. Staff were very gracious in having an early breakfast for us so we could catch our train. Breakfast was awesome! I would recommend this hotel and stay here again!

The hotel offered paid parking, but to reach the parking area and reception you have to drive up a very steep, narrow winding path, not for the faint hearted! If you walk out of the hotel, you are immediately on a road with no pathway for around 100 metres before steps lead down to a pathway. The very small dog beach is a long walk from the hotel and is not worth the effort.

The large room had a good view with the sea in the distance. The breakfast was reasonably good. The port and sea front could be walked in around 15-20 minutes and you pass many shops and restaurants on the way. Dog friendly hotel with lots of character, like an old Italian castle.

For Guest with no car , Walking to Town was a bit dangerous for 200 Meters as no sidewalks and we had to Walk along the Route

The Hotel es great!

Stayed in June 2025

The breakfast didn't have a great choice but was adequate. The bathroom really could do with an update, and the wiring on the lamps need attention.

I loved the traditional charm of this hotel, the location was very good despite the steps and hills! The staff were very friendly.

Room with a view was lovely. Felt like a special place to spend a few days. A nice change from apartments and modern hotels. Breakfast was yummy.
