The check-in process was a nightmare and the staff was incredibly rude. There is no lobby or staff that work physically on the property. We booked through Orbitz. Received a message the day prior asking for our contact information so we could receive the check-in code to get our room keys. I responded through Orbitz as there was no other email provided. I never heard back, so for several hours prior to our arrival I tried to call, no less than 5 times. We were placed on hold for > 10 minutes at a time, then the call would drop. Got to the property could not get into our room, no staff was there, tried calling again with no success. Called Orbitz, who also struggled to get in touch with anyone for > 20 minutes. Finally they were able to get in touch with someone who was so rude, yelled at the Orbitz agent and then hung up the phone. Orbitz called to offer to cancel our reservation and help us find new accommodations. While they were searching for other hotels, I finally received a phone call from the hotel. The gentleman, who would not give me his name despite my asking, was exceptionally rude to me. I explained we had been trying to reach him for quite some time. He told me "stop being hysterical, that's my problem, not his." He went on to tell me that he "doesn't care if we had to end up sleeping on the streets." We were finally able to get in after multiple more phone calls and texts, but I was so disappointed with their customer service.

Such a beautiful terrace! The room was gorgeous and comfortable. Suggestions for improvement considering the price: we were only given 1 bathrobe, the terrace should have an umbrella already setup, the room needs a kettle for making tea and ideally a mini-fridge and microwave. We loved our stay and would still highly recommend.

We stayed in the honeymoon suite. The view was absolutely breathtaking and the bed was very comfortable. Locking the door and using the A/C were very confusing. It would have been nice to receive more detailed instructions from the staff, who are not on site. They responded quickly via WhatsApp but were not very friendly or helpful. They provided a wine key that was missing a corkscrew, so when we tried to enjoy a bottle of wine at sunset, we had to walk to a nearby restaurant to ask them to open it. When I brought this to the staff’s attention, they ignored that part of my message. For the price, I expected more attention to detail and a much more welcoming and helpful staff.

My husband and I booked the honeymoon suite and were blown away by the incredible views from our private terrace. It was the perfect getaway and wish we stayed more than two nights because it really was so beautiful and relaxing.

The view from the balcony is absolutely amazing. Well worth the walk up the steep hill. The bed is super comfortable and the balcony is the best thing ever. On the downside, the shower is extremely small and very slippery to get out of, given that water sprays all over the entrance. The wifi is very patchy when sitting on the balcony but is good inside the room.

The terrace is very large and the best view in Manarola, and the breakfast is very nice. The room is small, it's odd to have a bathroom with a toilet open to the rest of the room (glass partition), and there were small ants everywhere. We arrived on a hot day in late April and the heat radiator was on, it took some time for confusing instructions from staff via what's app texts to turn it off and although AC is advertised it is not turned on until sometime in May. It's like an airbnb in that there is no on-site staff and it's in an apt bldg, yet it's like a hotel in that they charge for coffee, water, etc. that is in the room.

Disappointed
Based on the location of the unit it would be best to advise your guests as some will have luggage, offer bag assistance facilities even with an additional charge. Upon arrival the television did not work not one came to resolve the problem we were advised a lady would come the following day. When we saw the cleaning lady she had no clue how to fix it and no one else came to assist and no one check if the problem was resolved. The refrigerator there is an absolute waste of time as it is filled with your drinks and cannot even facility a guest bottled water. The room needs a proper size refrigerator and a microwave. I paid for two nights and only stayed one and ended up having to pay to stay elsewhere. I am very disappointed as this was our honeymoon.

The property was beautiful, it was the most amazing view and most comfortable stay we had in our trip to Italy. The walk to the hotel is worth it. Keep in mind that if you stay during Orange weather warning period all shops close so you will need to find food in another city. That said this place is still worth it !

Million dollar view. Pay very close attention to directions and location. And, if you do not want to carry or pull bags up and down hills and up and down MANY flights of stairs either hire the baggage service or stay somewhere else. That said, once you get to the room, you will not be disappointed. Room 212 offers a beautiful view and is down the hill from the train station the quaint town of Manarola. The property is in Manarola, not Riomaggiore. Riomaggiore is one train stop away. We personally thought Manarola was more quiet and quaint than Riomaggiore so were happy about the location. Again, only challenge with this property is accessibility. As long as you have a plan in advance, it will not be an issue.
