Staying at this hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, while part of the five-star category, felt quite small. On the upside, the staff visited twice a day for room service, which was a nice touch.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms were lovely and spacious, unfortunately, the pricing didn't quite match the overall quality. The location was beautiful, especially for hiking enthusiasts, but the steep and narrow access road was a bit challenging. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff adding charm to the Italian laidback vibe. However, the dining options were not as impressive, considering the culinary reputation of Italy.

My stay at the hotel offered a mixed experience. The rooms were on the smaller side with sketchy air conditioning, and the price seemed a bit high compared to other options. However, the stunning view from the hillside made up for it, especially being on the ground floor.

The location high on the mountainside overlooking the Liguria coast was beautiful but a bit far from the center of Camogli. The steep, curvy street made it a little tricky to reach, but the views to San Fruttuoso, Portofino, and Santa Marghereta were worth it.

Although the rooms were not fancy, they were clean, nice, and had everything we needed with a balcony and sea view. However, the air conditioning and televisions were a bit sketchy. The service was excellent, with polite staff properly trained in customer service. The location was exceptional overlooking the bay, but a little tricky to reach due to a steep, curvy, and narrow street. The dining experience was a real pleasure, especially having a drink on the terrace before dinner. The facilities were good, with a well-maintained pool area.
