Pros:

Beautiful little boutique hotel right in the port of Portofino. Breakfast was a huge bonus as well. The staff was so helpful and the rooms (at least mine) was newly renovated. A word of caution that it is a walk-up hotel and definitely not handicap accessible. I would stay again in a second.

Pros:

While public parking is the only option, bell hop service was excellent. Hotel is so conveniently located only 100 yards from the marina and with dozens of stores and restaurants within a two minute walk. Very clean rooms, highly attentive staff and excellent breakfast. Highly recommend.

Pros:

Perfect location near waterfront in Portofino. Modest hotel but honestly preferred it over a couple of more run down, overhyped 5 starts. Excellent staff. Room was comfortable and clean, no frills but great for what we needed. Quiet. Was a pleasant surprise.

Pros:

Great location to main port square, to the bus back to s.Margarita and ferry if you choose. Breakfast is great and they do night service which I didn’t know. They give you beach towels too which I didn’t know. Good staff and place but they need to go through what you get

Super beliggenhet
Pros:

Hotellet er dyrt til å være tre stjerners, men beliggenheten er fantastisk modt på havneplassen i Portfino. Gangavstand til alt. Veldig hjelpsomme foll mht utflukter og restauranter og med advarsler om de restaurantene nan vør unngå, spesielt de dom legger på 15 % skatt. Alt fungerer utmerket og man spiser frokost ite med utsikt mot havneområdet. Denne forstyrres noe av at alle leveranser inn til hoteller og restauranter finner sted tidlig om morgenen, før 10.

Pros:

Needs an upgrade in renovation.
Why breakfast outside under a roof during heavy rain and not possible indoor?
Far too pricey for an average hotel like that.
Friendly staff.

Pros:

Very friendly staff. NOT on the water as photo suggests. No elevator, small rooms, safe doesn’t work, AC BARELY works. Not bad for the price, but a solid “meh”.

Pros:

Perfectly located right on the marina. A simple breakfast was included- eggs, bacon, breads, granola and yogurt and cheese. Beautiful setting to have breakfast. Super nice staff and very helpful to direct us to little swimming coves or walks. The hotel itself is a little dated, like staying at your granny’s … flowery carpet and mahogany furniture… but the rooms were immaculately clean… little fridge/mini bar and room to make tea/coffee… just ask reception for milk 😉 we’re irish it’s a must. But all hotels in this area are dated… but it wasn’t tired looking. Shower was great and shower cap and shower gel provided etc.
overall a great choice- but note we had no balcony or no beautiful view from our room. To upgrade it would have been €150 more an night and we couldn’t justify it as it was expensive anyway- the whole area can be.

Pros:

Property was ideal, central to all the beautiful sites of Portofino. Everything was there that we needed. We even had a small balcony overlooking a side street, which was v pleasant at the end of the evening. Breakfast buffet was lovely and how fantastic to look out over the square snd the water. Staff were charming throughout, so helpful. Good value.
