We stayed here for two nights, in the end of May. Andrea was the most welcoming and helpful host who has tried to take everything into consideration and answer all of your questions, even before you know you should ask about them yourself – just look at the work he has put into his PDF with restaurant recommendations etc. The area was quiet, even though there is some sort of car repair shop downstairs, but still close to everything. There were also blinds in the room, which kept the sun away enough. The rooms are small but tidy and cozy. I would stay here again!

Everything was great! The location on the map seems tricky but it is a false impression! It is a 10 minute walk from the (quite charming) town and even less to the station. Besides the shuttle service is fantastic (we only used twice - on arrival and departure because of the luggage and it was seamless). I loved the room - properly big, with a comfortable bed nice bathroom and the garden with a table and chairs. Breakfast was lovely - everything that you need with very helpful and friendly staff. And the swimming pool is a strong asset too. I would return happily

Generous and varied breakfast. Wonderfully helpful staff, nothing too difficult. Good location within walking distance of the station, even with luggage and within the city centre close to restaurants. Great happy hour, cheap and with copious appetisers. The room was cooled for our arrival. It was great to get away from the towns of the Cinque Terre since they were so crowded and go back each afternoon to peaceful Levanto.

    Monterosso’s spirited historical centre overflows with restaurants and cafés. Take a walk along the sea promenade with some Italian Gelato ice-cream.

  • Wine after hiking in Riomaggiore

    Known for wines right out of its own vineyards, this picturesque village is perched high above the Ligurian Sea. The scenic Sentiero Azzurro hiking trail also begins here.

  • The colourful sun-soaked village of Vernazza

    This charming hamlet invites you to stroll around its centre and sun tan on its modest beach. The fortress is a unique lookout point for panoramic views of coastal storms.

  • Corniglia and its hidden gem

    Set atop a 100-metre-high promontory, Corniglia offers breathtaking views of the Cinque Terre National Park. Navigate the steep path to reach the hidden gem of Gùvano Beach.

  • Manarola's fresh catch

    The market buzzes with life at the port off Manarola Street, with friendly chatter and haggling. Fishmongers peddle a variety of seafood, freshly caught by local fishermen.

  • Hiking in the vineyards of Cinque Terre National Park

    This UNESCO-listed site celebrates harmonious teamwork between nature and humans in preserving a beautiful cultural landscape. The terraced vineyards make scenic hiking trails.

  • Diving adventures in the Cinque Terre Marine Protected Area

    Home to an amazing variety of marine flora and fauna. Day and night diving tours mean beginners and experts can have an underwater adventure.

  • Denominazione di Origine Controllata (DOC) wines

    The term denotes the highest classification for Italian wines. From Limoncino liqueur to sweet Sciacchetrà, the real taste of Cinque Terre flows through her DOC wines.

  • Five holy sites of Via dei Santuari

    Dedicated to the Virgin Mary, the sanctuaries offer breathtaking sea views. Set on the hills of each Cinque Terre village, they're accessible by bike, horseriding or on foot.

FAQs about hotels in Cinque Terre

Cliff-Hugging Beauty

One of Liguria’s most beautiful areas, the Cinque Terre are 5 UNESCO World Heritage-listed villages dramatically positioned on the Mediterranean coastline.

Each has a train station, but the most exhilarating way to visit the Cinque Terre is on foot. It’s not easy at times, but is definitely rewarding. The route starts (or finishes) at Riomaggiore, the southern-most village, home to a range of accommodation including a few Cinque Terre hotels on the beach.

The easy road between here and Manarola is called the Via dell’Amore, or Lovers’ Lane. Colourful Manarola houses hug the rocky cliffs overlooking the turquoise water below. The next village along is Corniglia, the only one not by the beach, but which offers panoramic views from its hilltop position.

Next is Vernazza, arguably the most picturesque of the 5, spread over a narrow promontory jutting into the sea and with a castle tower at its tip. Still very much a fishing village, it is centred around its small harbour and beach.

The longest beach is at Monterosso al Mare, the last town on the trail. Due to its location and easy access, it is home to what are possibly the best Cinque Terre hotels for families on Booking.com. However, whichever village you choose to stay in, you can expect wonderful views and fantastic food.

    Roberta and his team were super helpful and flexible. The outdoor area was a blessing, a great place to sit and read a book. The location was sensational with a 3-minute walk to the smaller free beach, which I loved. There are plenty of little restaurants to eat at again, a 3 minute walk away. A very secure place with walking distance to everything and yet quiet in the evening. I loved it so much I was lucky enough to extend by 1 night.

    We used La Spezia as a place to visit Cinque Terre region.

    We used La Spezia as a place to visit Cinque Terre region. We were somewhat disappointed in Cinque Terre. It is overcrowded and somewhat dilapidated. The buildings could be refreshed with a coat of paint. The best way to see the region is to take the train to Vernazza, then take a 2-hour boat trip to view the five villages. You need to be lucky with the weather. The ferry boat gets cancelled when the seas are high.

    Secluded private garden location just minutes from the beach and the Gigante statue in the new town, nestled under old growth trees in a light filled greenhouse glass addition to an historical building. Sun Light yet private. Equipped with dishwasher and washer/dryer(a bonus for travelers) and the lack of towels. Bring extra charging stations. Outlets are sparing in each room. Non the less, this one is a find. I'd return.

    Many good restaurants, great beach, fab beach bar, nice shops, some interesting historical buildings, easy access to fantastic coastal walk and cycle path, easy access to the Cinque Terre villages. Everything within an easy stroll. Can be lively in places if you want, or quiet if you prefer. Feels authentically Italian without being overly touristy. Convenient for Ferry and rail travel to other parts of the Italian Riviera and Cinque Terre. Book tables at restaurants if you can - the good ones are very popular.

    Riomaggiore is a vibrant town. Loved being outside at night with the restaurant sounds and bars playing music. It felt safe to walk around on my own. Enjoyed the harbor view and proximity to boat rental and tours. Beach was nice and small and not too crowded. Ferry is right there, too. Highly recommend staying in Riomaggiore.

    Vernazza is charming and lovely with it's colored structures...

    Vernazza is charming and lovely with it's colored structures and ocean smashing against the rocks of this tiny port village. We went at the end of September, and it was still a bit crowded with tourists and sourvenir shops and restaurants along the walking strip. If you've never seen anything like this, you'll probably enjoy it. We, personally, found it not as impressive as Burano in Venice, which has MANY mult-colored homes and lovely walking areas along the water with canals that were much less touristy and truly more charming!! Thus, we don't need to return to Vernazza for the effort that it took to drive here.

    Portovenere is a perfect place to stay, if looking for a quieter place but similar scenery to Cinque Terre. Lots of things to do from hiking, boat trips to other resorts and well connected to La Spezia by local bus.

    Great village to be based if you want to explore Cinque Terre. The train station is only a short walk from everywhere and there are various food options for breakfasts and dinners. The village itself is very cute and we could see everything in half a day.

    Lovely beach, great cafes & restaurants, people are lovely. Easily accessible by train and great base to explore Cinque Terre. Kids loved the beach & loved exploring the side streets & Geleterias for ice cream

    Picturesque, relatively small and quiet compared to the other cinque Terre towns. Centrally located so I could begin day walks in both directions. Best not to carry heavy luggage up the hill from the train station (around 380 steps) - use the bus… only 1,50 Euros but expect to wait 15-30 mins at peak time. The walks to Vernazza and on to Monterosso, and also the walk to Manarola are magnificent, just be prepared for lots of steps.

    Deiva Marina is a nice smaller town by the sea, which is very clean. The town lays in the valley surrounding by green mountains. There is an excellent train connection through coast, you can comfortably go to Cinque Terre, La Spezia, Portofino, Genoa.
