Search Hostels in Portovenere

"Excellent in all respects! Proximity to the sea is a big bonus! "

"Amazing views & room was very nice. Only negative I have is when trying to get some ice for drinks from bar staff was almost impossible. Location is great for the view & main town is not too far, but need to climb heaps of stairs to get there from hotel & difficult to get parking close to the main centre. "

"The apartment was clean and convenient, with a nice view onto the water. The free parking was easy to use, and we got a good night's sleep every night."

"We loved the sea views from our room and the breakfast terrace! The lobby is a deco beauty and the staff were so friendly and helpful with our transportation. We loved it and the breakfast options were delicious and plentiful. Truly a gem!"

"I could not more highly recommend this villa. It was absolutely spectacular. The grounds are incredible and the town is amazing. Paola was such a great host. She met us at the village and helped us up the hill to get to the Villa. Do not make the mistake we made and bring too many things. we way over packed and should’ve left things back in Florence and come packed much more lightly. This is a great destination to take the boat ride to Cinque Terre. I found Portovenere to be much more charming than the five towns. there are many spectacular restaurants so many I would’ve liked to had a chance to try, but we were only there two nights. we were touring the Vatican today in Rome and saw one of the ancient maps from the 1600s and actually saw our castle listed on it!"

"What an amazing little hotel!! Views, service, lovely room and bathroom, comfortable beds, clean, incredible breakfast!! We will be back or to their sister hotel next door the Belvedere. These are well run and we can’t say enough good things !! "

"We stayed at this boutique hotel for 2 nights and absolutely would return. It is in a great location, the staff is very friendly, and they offer a light continental breakfast that is included. It is steps away from dining and the boat ferry. It was a great day to jump on the ferry to montorosso to do some exploring and work our way back via the ferry to other stops along the way. The scenery of this region is spectacular. Great hiking opportunities as well. "

"Most of the other reviews have commented on the wonderful views from the property and, in particular the balcony, all of which I would echo. There are some additional things about staying here that I think are useful to know. The apartment is at the top of a long hill. The walk down to the town is very pleasant with lovely views down to the sea. The walk back, less so, particularly on a hot day. However, this can be avoided. There is an excellent bus service running every half hour from the town to La Spezia with a stop just beyond the apartment. So for 1.50 Euro you can avoid the sweat. In the summer, this is enhanced by a shuttle bus which runs even more frequently. While cooking facilities are limited in the small kitchen, the local Conad store carries a wide range of products so it's quite easy to create something tasty even within the kitchen's limitations."

"This is a beautiful spot with one especially cool feature: a private pier for swimming in the Mediterranean! The house is charming and the views are stunning. You can easily walk to Porto Venere, or to a public beach <10 min away. Very highly recommend this spot!"
