Nagy, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The only reason for 4 stars is the building is not new, but I had a really lovely stay and the staff were very helpful. Everything felt luxury except for the price. I especially appreciated the outdoor bar/cafe and the bountiful complimentary breakfast.

Samuel, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The rooms & bathrooms are a little old fashioned but I quite like that. It suits the building. For breakfast I would have liked to see more seasonal fruit like melon, nectarines, figs - otherwise it was pretty good.

Lovely hotel in centre of town, close to beaches and bars.
KEVIN, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location, the room was nice with two big windows, acoustic windows, really nice breakfast with many options, the hotel needs an upgrade on amenities, looks too old and lacks maintenance.

A Downton Abbey experience!
The hotel exceeded my expectations. The staff was professional, friendly, and hospitable. While a bit dated it is refreshingly elegant. Sometimes it seemed like a ‘ Downton Abbey experience. Breakfast was quite lovely. I would love to return to this hotel!
Joannie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel was a short ride from Cinque Terre and was our home base for a week in Sept. We fell in love with Sestri Levante along the way and the hotel was central and convenient to everything this amazing town had to offer. Wonderful staff and beautiful historic hotel. Beach across the street. A gem.
