“A lovely stay with exceptional hospitality”
I had a wonderful stay at this guesthouse in Riomaggiore. The location is excellent, right in the heart of the village and within easy walking distance of everything, yet still peaceful enough to relax after a day exploring. The guesthouse itself is really lovely and very well cared for. Everything was spotless and extremely clean, which made the stay even more comfortable. The room was welcoming and had everything needed for a pleasant stay. What made the experience even better were the owners. They were incredibly kind, supportive, and attentive, always ready to help with recommendations or any questions. Their hospitality really made a difference and made us feel genuinely welcome. Overall, a fantastic place to stay in Riomaggiore. I would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Great accomodation on the main street, very central to everything in Riomagiorre. The room had everything needed with a kettle and mini fridge as well. The room had a great view of the street, the bed was comfortable, and air conditioning worked well to cool the room at night as needed. The shared balcony above had a great view out to the water and has a drying line, which was perfect for hanging towels and swimwear after a visit to the nearby beach. The host was friendly, helpful, and responded promptly to any questions/queries we had. We would definitely recommend it to others and choose to stay again in the future!

“Perfectly located and comfortable room !”
Perfect location in the heart of Riomaggiore, the terrace is very cosy, having a little fridge in the room was super practical to store breakfast and easy meals. The bed is comfortable and the room a perfect size for a couple days. The communication was very easy and quick with the hosts.

The location was great and easy to find. Close to the train station and Giovanni was very friendly and met us and helped with our bags when we arrived and again which we needed. Much appreciated! We loved Cinque Terre.

We loved everything about the room, first of all the host was amazing he really help us with everything and explain to us everything we needed to know about the trains and the trails. The room was at the perfect location and had all the essentials, everything felt so cozy and comfortable . We recommend this place if you want to do the perfect holidays. And also has a terrace that you can have your morning coffee or to relax at the evening and enjoy the view.
