    The shower was small but was still OK as space in the bathroom was limited. Everything else was fantastic.

    The view from the balcony of the blue room was great. Nice, big room with plenty of space.

    The only thing we were somewhat disappointed in was the lack of a view. Yes you could see the sea standing up on the balcony, but it was mostly blocked by a neighboring building. Just not quite what we thought we had gotten. But overall a good stay and nice to sit on the balcony.

    I would say the room is fairly small but all we needed for our stay in Cinque Terre. We enjoyed the daily free breakfast on the terrace. We felt the room was very clean and they were welcoming upon arrival.

    3 flights with luggage and no lift. No laundry facilities but still so worth it!

    Adorable room with beautiful balcony overlooking the Ligurian Sea and the mountainside vineyards. Corniglia is the best kept secret in Cinqué Terre,mainly because it is quite a hike up the hill from the train station. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast on the outside terrace included in the very reasonable price of the room. We so enjoyed hiking fromCorniglia to other villages in Cinque Terre and then returning in the afternoon to our adorable little room for wine and snacks on our balcony. The staff and entire town were beautiful and kind. I cried when we left❤️

    My room was definitely small, but had what I needed in it. The bonus was a small terrace that I could watch a sunset and look at the ocean and a door that is glass so when you’re laying in bed, you see those beautiful sites. I didn’t interact much with staff, but whomever I did I found very helpful and considerate. It seems to be owned by one of the coffee bars near the room and then they also have a terrace where you can have food and drinks, and also look out at the sea for the sunset. Great location!

    I loved the place entirely. There was a slight issue which was my fault, but the owner quickly introduced himself and we were able to fix it together. Thank you!

    The staff at il Magan were absolutely fantastic and made this magical place feel even more special. Between the amazing location, an amazing view from the terrace (which was unfortunately being renovated during my stay), delicious breakfast and an incredibly helpful set of staff, my stay couldn’t have gone any better. The beds were incredibly comfortable which made for a great night’s sleep, and made it tempting to lay there instead of going out exploring! When I come back to Corniglia, I’ll have to stay with this hotel again.

    There was nothing to complain about...all was great.

    While small and at the top of a steep flight of stairs, the room was comfortable, bed was good, bathroom and shower were adequate, and the balcony and view were wonderful. And the staff, every last one of them, couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. Breakfasts were delicious and mostly to order and served overlooking the coastline and sea. And the location was sufficiently out of the mayhem of the major tourist area that it was quiet.

    A set of hooks in the bedroom would be helpful. Having a place to hold luggage before and after checkout would also be very helpful. A small fold out bedside table would be nice. I used a fold up cube that I travel with. But there’s nothing I did not like about il Magan.

    The room and bathroom were updated and clean. Very nice floors. The space was very well organized for a small space. It fit all my belongings perfectly. The bed was very comfortable and the balcony has a nice view of the sea. I loved how the new glass door could open for access to the balcony or tilt open as a window to allow the fresh sea air come in. The included breakfast is delicious and served on a patio with amazing views of the sea. Corniglia is amazing and Il Magan is so nice. My room was perfect for a solo traveler. I would definitely stay here again!

    Sofa bed mattress wasn’t very comfortable

    Fabulous views of the Cinque Terra coastline from our room and the hotel restaurant. Good central location close to restaurants yet very quiet. Loved the quaint historical atmosphere of the hotel which was typical of Corniglia. Breakfast was substantial and served with a fabulous view of the hillside and ocean. Staff were friendly and attentive. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend the hotel. Beware luggage has to be carried to the hotel from the bus stop for about 300m over cobblestones so avoid heavy or bulky luggage.

    The shower was tiny—it would be hard for someone who is either tall or large to use, though this is probably typical of guest spaces that have to be worked into old buildings in this town. On one or two days, it was quite rainy, and some water leaked into our room, though the staff attended to it promptly once we informed them of the issue.

    The room had a lovely view out of large windows next to a nice dining table and chairs to relax in at the end of the day. Also had a refrigerator (and a fireplace!). Breakfast is served on the lovely terrace just below the rooms, with a view of the Ligurian Sea. There is a variety of good breakfast options. The location was great—right on the main street through the old part of Corniglia. It is quiet in the evening, and we had some of our best nights' sleep of the entire trip!
