Villa Rosmarino, hotel in Portofino

At the base of Mount Portofino and with panoramic sea views, Villa Rosmarino offers a pool set in gardens. There is free Wi-Fi in the lounge overlooking the Paradise Gulf.

The staff was so welcoming and helpful. They took care of dinner reservations, gave great recommendations and helped out with any questions we had. The Villa was beautiful with the backyard and the amazing pool area and the breakfast was exceptional with fresh cut fruit and juice everyday. Camogli as a town is very charming and beautiful, with a great Harbour area and beautiful coastline. Definitely recommend Villa Rosmarino and we will be back!

Europa Hotel Design Spa 1877, hotel in Portofino

Dating back to 1877, Europa Hotel is opposite Rapallo Castle and a few steps from the beach. It features a restaurant.

The hotel was beautiful and in a great location. It was very clean. Our room was big with a lovely view of the bay. The breakfast had a good variety, and as a vegan, I found plenty of options.

Hotel Canali, Portofino Coast, hotel in Portofino

The 4-star Hotel Canali, Portofino Coast is set in an elegant villa from the 20th century, a 10-minute walk through the city park from Rapallo’s centre.

The location of the hotel is perfect, 15 mins walk from the busy and noisy Rapallo center during the high season. We enjoyed very much the terrace and the garden of the hotel. The breakfast and the snacks served were delicious, the staff very friendly and helpful.

MA Hotel, hotel in Portofino

The small and charming MA Hotel offers modern accommodation in the centre of Santa Margherita Ligure, just a few metres from the sea. Portofino is 5 km away.

We had a wonderful stay. ☺️ Matteo and Theresa were super nice and incredibly helpful (I asked for a room charge because the curtains didn’t close and Matteo was super accommodating and very kind.). Property is simple (perfect 3 star hotel) but super clean! Breakfast was wonderful with variety of pastries and delicious fresh local fruit (something we do not find in most hotels these days). Great location as you can walk to the station and beach in 5 minutes. The rooms in the main building have shutters so we had complete darkness and slept really well!

    The location was great right by the port. The air conditioning was really appreciated in the 33 degeee weather. A cleverly designed space which fit in a tiny kitchen. It was quite like a caravan except that it had a good sized bathroom.

    Absolutely stunning and so secluded. What a gorgeous part of the world. The whole experience felt special and I can't wait to go back. The rooms are so lovely and bathrooms surprisingly modern considering the building is some 800 years old. The staff are also so lovely and friendly
