What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“we stayed there for three nights and it was so pleasant. everyone working there was so friendly and we felt so welcomed! hardly ever stayed in a hotel, where the staff was so honestly friendly. the breakfast buffet was very rich and the rooms were clean. we definitely gonna stay there again.”
“Such a friendly atmosphere and accommodating service. They let us check in earlier, separated the beds in two singles and room was refreshed with AC. Liked that water pressure in shower was amazing. Perfect location! Coming back for sure! Thank you!”
“This is a great family-run hotel. Very clean and well-located! We had a wonderful stay overall. The only downside was an unpleasant experience with the breakfast lady, who was extremely rude. Other than that, everything was amazing.”
“A wonderful find for our trip to Sestri Levante. Close to the train station for access to riviera. The best water pressure and hot shower we have experienced. The staff are helpful and the rooms were cleaned and beds made daily. If you get the chance to have breakfast the ricotta cake with your coffee was a highlight. Couldn't be happier with our choice.”
“It was my first stay in the city, it was lovely!!! I loved the beautiful furnishing in common spaces. It is very modernist. One cons was that upstairs in the lounge area the AC was never on so it was hard to use it. I think I would definitely come back!”
