Waterfront location with excellent views, near the train station.
Pros:

Great location on the water with a 5 minute walk from the train station. We had a second floor balcony room facing the water. The views of the Ligurian Sea are great! Room was fully updated inside and comfortable. We were also fortunate to get upgraded to the corner suite, with a huge balcony. This hotel has character and we loved the town of Santa Margherita, and very much enjoyed our 2 night stay.

Cons:

Some reviewers mention that the hotel is dated and needs upgrading. Other than the flaking paint on the exterior in some parts, I wouldn’t share this opinion. This is a lovely older “character” hotel.

Läget oslagbart!
Pros:

Utsikten ! Frukosten var okej. Läget.

Cons:

Behöver en uppfräschning lite här och där. Trångt badrum. Blev tvungen att byta rum.

Keine schlechte Wahl
Pros:

Ich hatte ein Meerblick Zimmer, und dies ist absolut notwendig bei diesen Hotel, die anderen Zimmer würde ich nicht nehmen. Die Lage ist sensationell, auch nahe zum Bahnhof. Die Zimmer sind eher 3* mit 4* Aussicht. Es hat genug Personal im Hotel und auch der Pool ist betreut.
Das Frühstück war gut.

Cons:

Obwohl ich früh und mit Aktion für Oktober gebucht habe, finde ich, dass ich "genug" bezahlt habe.
Italien wird immer teurer...
