Hotel and staff were excellent, parking under the Hotel. Everything in town was walkable, sone very nice some completely rude to us being American. Would not let that reflect at all on the hotel or location, we had a deck with a beautiful view of town and the small marina.

This hotel was excellent for many reasons. The staff made sure that we got everything we needed. Food was excellent and restaurant staff was very attentive. The area is convenient for walking to restaurants, shops , and sights. Also, you can take the ferry to Cinque Terre across from the hotel.
