Hotels in Rapallo

Great location, rooms, pool and food

Our dinner at Il Leccio was, without question, the best meal we had during our entire time in Santa Margherita. From the moment we arrived, Lucca and Monica, along with the entire staff, made us feel incredibly welcome—warm, genuine hospitality that elevated the entire evening. The food was beyond exceptional—every dish beautifully prepared and bursting with flavor. The care and passion from the kitchen...

Love this resort will definitely be back

This is a luxury boutique hotel. 10 on all parameters. The View, the pool, the rooms, the efficient service/s, the food, cleanliness. It was an unforgettable stay with Luca, and all the Members of Staff who were always there to assist. The breakfast was one of the best we had: ask for their home made croissants! In short, it was totally worth it. ( one small request : please put shelves in the...

The location is a feature that makes this place worth an experience: a wide view of Santa Margherita Ligure and the Tigullio Gulf. The service is very efficient and courteous. The gastronomic preparations are made with raw materials of the highest quality and in compositions with brilliant notes of originality.

This is not per se a luxury hotel. But it is really comfortable and the luxury is with the spectacular view, the great service and the intimacy. It feels like being in a private home very nicely renovated. The pools are fantastic and heated. The garden is great.

Very nice property with a great breakfast and spa. The staff was very professional. Unfortunately, you could hear guests in the next room as if they were in ours.

Staying there again and again a great staff super service restaurant is amazing. Few is incredible rooms of spacious walls very clean high-level of service.

Five star well deserved. Most romantic place you could ask for and the history is incredible never the fact that’s it’s a walk from Portofino. A must stay!

The location is incredible, the staff makes you feel like at home. The spa is great although there were no sunbeds available for most of the time i was there. The only shortcoming is the breakfast.

Our third stay at this hotel, and each time the experience becomes even better than the last. What truly makes this place exceptional is the sincere, warm, and genuinely caring service — it deserves seven stars, not just five. Thank you for that!👍 The brand-new, world-class spa is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere. The location is perfect for visiting Rapallo or exploring...

We spent a week of our honeymoon here and had a wonderful experience. The staff was professional, attentive, and classy. Our room was comfortable, we received relaxing spa treatments, and enjoyed the hotel sauna & pool. Dream stay at the Excelsior!

Absolutely loved this hotel and Santa Margherita de Ligure. It’s a fantastic place to stay, the area is absolutely beautiful and so easy to get around, the hotel is elegant, the staff are so friendly and welcoming, and the food was fantastic quality. The breakfasts were superb, the patisserie worthy of Paul Hollywood. We ate once in the evening and it was v good but v expensive and there are some...

Friendly, professional, altogether excellent service and a wonderful stay!

We had a nice suite overlooking the sea . Breakfast was good evening dinners were ok nothing to write home about. They can certainly improve on them. Service staff was good. Might be a good idea to offer a shuttle service into town as you have to walk on Main Street with small side paths .

This is the first class property. And also first class staff. My wife and I bought a bottle of wine at dinner. By the end of dinner, we thought that we drank three bottles of wine. The reason why is because every time we took a sip or two the waiter would come and refill our glasses. Or I should say waiters. He was there so many times and was so attentive that we literally thought we drink three bottles...

Wow - this hotel is phenomenal! The pictures do not do this place justice! The staff are super helpful and friendly. We had the most wonderful time staying here. Thank you for a fantastic stay.

It is impossible to truly convey the incredible experience we had at this hotel. The room was one of the most beautiful we have seen in over 40 years of traveling. The old world elegance, combined with modern amenities was unbeatable. The history and treasures of the hotel are significant, and a joy for those who value such things. We were there for five days, and decided our last day there just to...

Beautiful hotel, comfortable rooms, high end restaurant and spa

They did not make any effort to offer a room upgrade or any other platinum extra’s. Wifi was a complete nightmare : worked for 10 minutes - than nothing for the rest of the stay

Property is beautiful! Staff was courteous and attentive. Highly recommended! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful resort. Staff was attentive and so pleasant. Dinner on the patio offered a gorgeous view, lovely live music and great food. Will return😄😔

Absolutely loved this hotel. So beautiful and incredible location. The staff was so kind and helpful. The spa was great as well. Highly recommend!

Amazing 5 star hotel. Spectecular view to the bay. Very friendly staff that is helpfull in all situations. Spacious room with sea view. Delicious breakfast with big. I will definately come back.

Melissa Walsh Everything about the Grand Hotel Miramare is excellent! We have stayed several times and it’s always been exceptional service and a wonderful staff. We love Antonio, Roberto and Luigi along with the front desk team.

We booked Hotel Miramare for our honeymoon and made sure to inform the staff of this twice in writing ahead of our arrival. Unfortunately, this was not once acknowledged on arrival or during our stay. My husband had arranged for roses and champagne to be placed in the room, but there was no recognition or special touch from the staff, which was disappointing. We paid over €1000 a night for a suite...

A beautiful hotel with a staff that was incomparable. From the bellmen to the front desk to housekeeping everyone at Grand Hotel Miramare went the extra mile to make us feel welcome. They treated us like family. Breakfasts, lunches and dinners were outstanding. Location is ideal for exploring the charming town of Santa Margherita. We would highly recommend this hotel to any travelers wishing to...

Gorgeous view! Great staff!! Private beach access which is rare in Santa margherita. Would definitely stay again

The hotel is well located and with beautiful and well curated gardens but, to me, is totally missing of charm and style. It is not a grand dame and neither a contemporary decor. A sort of hybrid that did not bring anywhere. The dark brown corridor are really not matching the seaside aestehtic: The service at the breakfast was excellent and very friendly, we enjoyed. Swimmingpool is nice and well mantained

What a dreamy stay on the Italian coast. Initially I was going to stay in Portofino, but I am so glad I didn't. The Hotel Grand Miramare was the type of place you'd like to stay for a month. I cannot say enough about the professional and friendly staff who made you feel like a true guest and not just a customer. The pool, beach club and wonderful morning breakfast were fantastic. Get a room with an...

Stay was standard and as expected. Large room and large bathroom.  Staff were very helpful however, we requested for a higher floor and with sea view which they accommodated they also accommodated and prepared a breakfast box as we were due to checkout very early before the service started.

It‘s a little old. And for the stay too expensive. Rooms are very clean.

Best Western Regina Elena is an average hotel with decent service. Nothing particularly bad, but nothing outstanding either. Parking was a bit pricey, and while the room was okay overall, the bathroom was quite small. Breakfast was simple, with an okay selection — enough to get you started for the day, but nothing memorable. It’s fine for a short stay, but don’t expect anything fancy.

Good hotel and staff!! Thank you!!

The location is excllent if you like walking along the sea-coast. Though, despite the quiet location and no outside noice, you can hear all sounds from inside (the hotel floor) when you are in your room anticipating relax and privacy. Moreover, in case there is a connecting door in your room, be sure to hear every little sound from your neighbour like they are in the same room with you - that was a...

Easily accessible structure, convenient internal parking, excellent cleanliness, welcoming and very professional staff. Abundant and varied breakfast. Comfortable, bright room, modern furnishings in excellent condition. Very pleasant outdoor space.

In summary, we had a wonderful stay at the Continental Hotel, which fulfilled almost all of our wishes. Excellent points : the location (on the rocks by the sea), the garden, the overall quality of the hotel, the service, the cleanliness of the hotel and rooms, the quality of the food (despite the negative point below). Negative points : 1. the access ONLY to the pool (which is part of the spa) is...

Dear C. Chana, as I am unable to reply to your response to my review I'm using a different email I use for work. I want to clarify that I never said you robbed us or charged us incorrectly for something we didn’t have. What I said was that charging extra for basic items such as juice and eggs, when the room rate is OVER €1,000 per night, feels nothing short of robbery. By that I mean it comes across...

We just stayed 2 nights beginning of September, for us the third time in last 5 years we visited Continental. The location is breathtaking and super easy to reach by train and this time by car. Car parking at hotel is great and makes live easy for a good price. We really enjoyed breakfast lunch and diner both inside and with great seating and view on terrace. The restaurant staff is sooo friendly and...

Beautiful Hotel with Exceptional Hospitality My wife and I recently stayed at the Hotel Continental in Santa Margherita Ligure and we had such a wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel right at home. Everyone we encountered was warm, professional, and genuinely eager to help, which really set the tone for the entire stay. The hotel itself is beautiful with an area...

Stayed a few nights here the staff is amazing, had a few issues with wifi and after talking to the front desk they promptly resolve with a wifi extender went from 5 Mbs to 50 MBs. Rooms were immaculately cleaned and refreshed every day. The staff for every interaction be it breakfast, bar, dinner was amazing. I highly recommend the on premise dinner at 7:30 every dish was a masterpiece. From scallops...

This place is FANTASTIC. Kind’ve a hidden gem a short boat ride north of Portofino in Santa Margherita which, in our opinion, is a better town to stay in for multiple nights. The hotel views are incredibly beautiful, staff is very friendly and helpful, the private beach club is relaxing and gorgeous, and the air conditioning is strong and cool.

Beautiful hotel in centre of Rapallo. There is construction going on but we heard no noise inside. The only downside for us was the spa/swimming pool. It's really small compared to the price.

The property is in an excellent location, in front of the Castle. The room was clean and spacious, with a partial sea view. Average breakfast with lots of fresh products. The bathrooms and soundproofing between the rooms should be renovated. But for me it is still an excellent hotel!

We were not able to stay, but we did pay for the reservation, so I do not value the location, cleanliness or facilities. What did happen was that we had a medical problem, with official proof, and they did not offer us any solution. We did not ask for a refund, but for new dates, and the answer was the same. Very poor customer service.

The environment is good. It's right on the beach. The outdoor buffet is very comfortable.

The hotel was excellent and in a great position in the town. The staff were excellent and very nice. The breakfast is a basic continental but it is very nice and the coffee was lovely. I would go back to this hotel again, no question. The spa swimming pool was cold and overall the spa wasn’t worth €18 each to go in but overall the hotel was superb. One thing the staff did do was cater for our need...

I recently stayed at the Europa Hotel in Genoa and had a comfortable and uneventful stay. The hotel's location was convenient, with a short walk to the nearest metro station and a variety of restaurants and shops nearby. The room was clean and well-maintained, with a comfortable bed and a spacious bathroom. The air conditioning worked well, which was a blessing during the hot Genoa summer. The hotel...

Breakfast on the terrace was lovely, very comfortable room and lovely team.

One of the best hotels in all of Italy! My wife enjoyed her massage with candle at the spa very much! The hotel is incredibly beautiful and dinner and breakfast are both spectacular! We return every year to this incredibly beautiful hotel! The staff are also so very friendly and are almost like a 2nd honorary family to us! Bravo!

Lovely Lovely hotel, gorgeous location. Staff were friendly and helpful, the pool is very nice and the beach area is great with a lovely view. Definitely recommend

Total experience is excellent however hotel needs some renovation .My room was clean . Breakfast was good . Spa was grate . front desk and stuff was friendly and accommodating . Honestly look forward to go there again

Nice mid tier property, the tall front desk guy was a **** but our stay was ok overall. The hotel is dated, smoky in the hallways and there’s rule signs everywhere. The best part was the ocean patio area.

Amazing! Stayed here at least 5 times in the past 10 years and this hotel never disappoints. My only complaint is at €400 a night for our double seaview room, the €20 daily lounge bed fee should be included in the price of the room.

The room and the service in the hotel were both really good, we were very pleased. However, the location was a disaster, it was central and incredibly noisy with mopeds roaring around late into the night and early morning, the noise insulation was really poor. There also was no bar or restaurant in the hotel and while breakfast was fine it was very expensive. Unfortunately due to the noise levels we...

Book for others and it’s ok and good location

We had booked in two hotel rooms but was offered the option to move to an apartment owned by the hotel instead which was a great decision as we were able to stay in the same space as our teenagers, had a full kitchen, two bathrooms and only 200m from the hotel reception. Had a brilliant stay in Rapallo (which we extended by a night as we were enjoying ourselves too much) and a fabulous experience with...

Can not imagine better. Great view from balcony, nice breakfast with sparkling wine, good service from reception staff

Great location and value for money

We enjoyed the beautiful view and cleanliness of the room. For a family of four the family room was slightly small but still convenient enough. The staff was very kind and helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Jolanda. Location is perfect to restaurants and train station to close by towns for sightseeing. The pillow and bed is very comfortable. The breakfast is excellent. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Very friendly service, who let us check-in earlier. Rooms are really nice, with all the essentials you could need (big plus for LANVIN). Hotel is really close to the sea. Recommend

This hotel was extremely clean, spacious and the location was wonderful. Great breakfast and the dinner we had one night in the restaurant was probably the best meal we had whilst in Santa Margherita.Close to the train, waterfront and the fabulous cafe's and restaurants and Piazza Caprera that was lively and beautiful. The location was an excellent base to visit Portofino and Cinque Terre towns. Stayed...

We had a wonderful time ! Very friendly staff and delicious breakfast. The room was big enough and very welcoming. I very much recommend this hotel if you visit santa Margherita Ligure or portofino !

Calm and sweet hotel, good breakfast. Small rooms. Quiet and a dash of luxury. My second home by the sea.

Fantastic hotel. great location, close to the sea and all amenities. Nice staff, small bar but great cocktails! Very comfortable beds! Highly recommend for family and friends stays!

The room was spotless, the staff went over and beyond with making us feel comfortable. Bringing us a kettle and cups to our room and champagne upon arrival! ( I think that's because we are ******* VIP). Wonderful breakfast.

Highly professional staff welcomed us with a free upgrade room and a bottle of prosecco. The staff was helpful in guiding us on sites to see and things to do. The bar staff was friendly and welcoming. We felt at home in this hotel. The television streaming services did not work well but this was a minor inconvenience. Overall I give this hotel an excellent rating.

We just love Santa Margherita and our stay at the Hotel Laurin only made it better. Great facilities and staff and the perfect location.

I loved my stay at Hotel Laurin. The room was great, very clean and the balcony was a massive plus. The pool area was excellent, for the time of year the number of sun loungers was plenty, and the view over the coast was perfect. The breakfast buffet had a great selection of hot & cold, and sweet & savoury. The staff were all brilliant, welcoming and helpful. And the area was close to all restaurants...

Highly professional management team at the front desk that sets them apart from other hotels we have stayed at. Great care was taken to ensure our stay was comfortable and that professionalism extended to everyone who works there. Very impressive.

Amazing views. We booked an ocean view room and we were in heaven. The terrace is stunning and has a beautiful view we will remember forever. The location is excellent right on the maim ***** close to all restaurants, ferry stops and walking distance to the train. The rooms have electric strom shutters that once you close them the room is pitch black allowing for a great nights rest. The breakfast...

Very nice staff , smiling , professional, fast Room very clean and good size Location really wonderful

Lovely hotel in a great location. Staff on front desk were very helpful and made suggestions for you to make the most of your time in Rapallo. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Waterfront only steps from the front door. Highly recommend. If staying again would spend a bit more for a room with a sea view.

The breakfast was amazing. The croissants were to die for. Great location by the harbour and very closr to the centre of Rapallo. The staff were lovely abs helpful. Rapallo was a lovely vibrant little town and i felt safe walking around at night on my own. Would definitely come back to this hotel here.

It was just a great place to stay in Rapallo. Easy to get to, on the sea front, friendly and welcoming staff. The room was fresh and very well maintained as was the rest of the property. There was an excellent breakfast provided with a great choice for all tastes. Excellent value for money.

Room was very clean. Excellent shower head. Comfortable bed. Great ocean view. You are right on the Main Street and if you open the windows you will get a lovely ocean breeze but it can be noisey until the crowds leave but with the window closed it is quiet. I’d stay hear again and would recommend it to my friends

Clean and very comfortable room with a beautiful view. Delicious breakfast. Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent location!

The best hotel I have stayed in my life. Excellent location and super customer service

The staff at the property were amazing, great service! Super nice to have a private beach club area for the hotel guest.

Had a fabulous experience at this property. The weather forecast was horrible - sideways rain for 2 days. We were too late to cancel and I'm glad we didn't ultimately. Amanda the reservations manager upgraded our room - a nice gesture given we were not going to be spending more time there as opposed to being out touring around. The hotel is beautifully appointed and very comfortable. The food...

The staff here are amazing. They are all so gracious and accommodating.

Only 12 rooms and in a fantastic location on a small beach perfect for swimming and relaxing. The staff was extra special. Not only welcoming but friendly and enjoy their occupations and where they work and it shows! It is also decorated really well!

We arrived with high expectations and were not disappointed. Beautiful boutique hotel in a stunning location. We had the most wonderful holiday and thank all the staff for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. This is a boutique hotel so the rooms are not huge but our deluxe room was very comfortable with a large terrace overlooking Pariggi Bay. I still hold the memory of my morning coffee...

I booked a junior suite with spa option on their website. All rooms are different, but the junior suite with spa is the largest room and bathroom I've stayed in Europe. Large marbel bathroom with large shower and windows in the main room that open looking over the garden and hills. The spa is amazing and has to be reserved bc they limit to 5 or 6 total couples at a time. The staff are super friendly...

The mattress in our room wa completely broken and ruined our night and the day after. Our back is completely broken. We chose this hotel because of the parking and the sofa. The sofa is not relevant at all for those who come in the evening because it closes at 8:00 PM and only opens 14 days later. Parking costs 38 euros and they didn't mention it anywhere. Breakfast is reasonable.

Good hotel, good room, but be careful that the pool and spa is only accessible from 2 pm to 8 pm. Also, parking is a 38€ extra. Breakfast was ok but not special.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel, which was impeccably presented with stunning views and spotlessly clean accommodations. The attention to detail in maintaining the hotel’s appearance and the quality of the amenities contributed significantly to our enjoyable experience. Additionally, the staff were exemplary—accommodating, welcoming, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. Their genuine hospitality...

Very Nice hotel .. completely renovated nice and kind stuff at the reception .you have 5 categories of rooms so be aware that standard rooms are small. Good breakfast I recommend it

Wow! Claudia and her professional staff made our 3 night stay very enjoyable at this beautiful, exclusive and elegant Hotel. First class service, great breakfast and a wonderful room with views toward the Botanical Garden. We had an excellent Massage and soak in the spa. Hotel is walking distance to all attractions in this lovely town. Highly recommended.

A charming typical hotel where the true gem is the staff: they will go out of their way to accommodate you and make your stay both a comfortable breeze and unforgettable.

Clean and tidy. The photos are out of date in many of the reviews. I think the hotel has transformed since many of the reviews were written. The breakfast is really good and staff are really nice. The only thing which could be improved would be the wifi being not the best signal. On the other hand it forced me to read my book and zone out of the world a bit so in a way not such a bad thing. To the...

Fair room, slightly hard beds, weird smell in the room throughout the stay. On the last day the room was filled with an unbearable fart smell

Fantastisk opphold. Stort fint rom, serviceinnstilt personale, rent og ryddig.

The staff couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. The rooms are clean and safe, but a little older with chipped paint etc. the breakfast was delicious and it was a gorgeous morning on the terrace with a cappuccino. We had some trouble getting there because the public transportation doesn't run after a certain time and our flight had been majorly delayed, so be prepared for a big taxi fee if you're...

Excellent location and accommodations We drove in from the Genoa airport and needed to make sure the hotel offered parking. The staff was incredibly helpful, accommodating, and communicative. It was easy to find and even though we arrived before check in they had space that allowed us to freshen up and store our luggage so that we could keep to our schedule as we were in town only for one night and...

Nice hotel with a lovely communal area where breakfast is also served. Friendly and helpful staff. The single room I booked was very, very small. No chair, no storage space for bags, tiny washbasin... not really acceptable for the price.

Friendly staff who were available to help with enquiries about travelling around. Lots of choice for breakfast. A clean, comfortable room.

we felt right at home the moment we walked in. The staff is first class and always willing to help, no matter what they ask is. The breakfast is absolutely unreal as well.

Excellent all round. Way better than expected. Best toiletries amenities I’ve had in ages. Excellent staff, so friendly, such a relaxing environment Room was so perfect albeit a little small but that’s a minor complaint when food and drink very good, staff very accommodating providing an iron when required too and so many recommendations for the local area. Would absolutely choose to stay here...

Great little boutique hotel that is at a great location. The staff were excellent and very attentive. I would recommend this property highly!

Lovely property and a lovely staff who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, especially for my 2 year old son.

Great choice for a short stay in SML. Ideally located for train station snd harbour. Attentive and helpful staff throughout my stay. Lovely reception, bar and breakfast area. Great buffet breakfast with large selection. Unfortunately I didn't get much sleep! The rooms are tightly packed together and the walls are very thin! You can hear every noise from adjacent tooms - conversations, toilets,...

Great stay. Great hotel. We had a nice balcony. 2 min. walk to the beach. Good breakfast. Nice rooftop bar. The room was modern. Friendly staff. Santa Margherita Ligure is a beautiful little town and you can walk to Portofino (or take the bus, ferry). Quite a few pebble beaches on the way so bring your swimsuit.

We had a perfect stay in Tigullio. We walked from the train station to the hotel and then from the hotel to the town/shopping. Everything was close and we were able to walk to get espressos every morning. Perfect location and staff were so welcoming and helped us out with amenities (iron & ironing boards) as we had a wedding nearby. Would 100% recommend to friends and stay here again!

Great hotel in a very convenient location The breakfast buffet is just amazing

The room AC was not cooling at all and we called the reception and they’ve sent a technician and he said it’s working normal, nothing been done till the last night I called them again to find me a solution, and moved us to another room which the AC was very good and they could’ve did this from the fist complain, my stay was really bad because of the AC and bad smell from the room

This is a lovely place and only a short walk from the waterfront (not on the waterfront as the listing says). Parking in a side street was easy and it appeared to be safe. Staff were lovely and breakfast was great.

Small room, but very clean and comfortable bed. Great view from balcony. The location was perfect. Great staff at the front desk.

Loved the location and for a three star hotel was very nice. The staff were very helpful and rooms were very clean. Just a little remodeling would be nice. Also the bathroom was small but would still go back. The ocean view and sound of the ocean was wonderful.

best hotel in Rapallo The room was amazing with a really nice balcony. Liselotte in the reception is outstanding and very helpful. Recommend this hotel to everyone

I was disappointed with the service at the front desk. Yesterday I asked them to print my boarding pass and emailed the file as requested, but after sending it, I waited 10 minutes with no update. This unnecessary delay caused me to miss my scheduled train. For a hotel of this level, basic services like printing should be handled more promptly and efficiently. Room has no sound proof.

Excellent location, 7 minutes from the station, one minute - the Castle, the embankment, restaurants. The rooms are new, clean. We liked everything very much!!

The hotel is in a very convenient location: 10 minutes walk from the train station, on the embankment. It was not indicated anywhere, so I will write that there is a mini-fridge in the room (water in it is paid, but you can not take it, and use the refrigerator). The bathroom, as we say, is separate. Nearby is an intersection with a roundabout, it is noisy with the windows open, but quiet at night

Very clean room and excellent position for touring

The location was a mix of accessibility to Santa Margherita and Rapallo by walking also by Bus or car. Whereby walking to Santa Margherita was a good 10 minutes walk and 20

Highly recommend Great location, very friendly and helpful staff. Very nice continental breakfast, reasonably priced. Beautiful views. We would def stay here again.

Hotel was nice and clean. Respectful staff. Breakfast was amazing. More food than you could ever imagine.

Perfect, amazing people are working at this hotel, was a pleasure to spend a few days here. If you need parking try booking it in advance, otherwise there is a public parking on the street nearby. Walking distance to the beach and nearest cities.

Excellent location. You can walk, bus or water shuttle easily. Staff was outstanding and having the balcony was awesome. Special shout out to Lisa!
