Erika was an amazing host from meeting us at the train station to the complimentary prosecco and goodies!! The apartment is beautiful with an amazing terrace. It was spotlessly clean.

“The perfect place to stay in Riomaggiore with excellent hosts!”
Amazing view from the balcony with nice sitting area to enjoy the afternoon sun. Aldo and Erika were very helpful with check-in. Aldo met us at the train station and walked us to the accommodation and even insisted on carrying all our luggage up the stairs whilst telling us about his history in Riomaggiore. Great hospitality and accommodation overall.

“Welcome stay in lovely place with caring owners.”
Location was fantastic. Great terrace. Erika and Aldo fantastic. Great team and made us feel so welcome and gave awesome support and recommendations of things to do. Booked restaurants for me when my phone didn’t work. The apartment is modern and lovely. Yes it’s up a hill and has stairs, but that’s Cinque Terre. Riomaggiore was my favourite village. If I am lucky enough to come back I would stay here again.

“The perfect retreat after exploring Cinque Terre”
The service from Erika and her family was simply outstanding. Erika and her Father met us at the train station and assisted us to our property, even carrying the luggage up the stairs. The property was modern with all the latest hotel features like turning lights on/off by the bed. Erika provided snacks and drinks also which was very kind. The balcony was perfect to sit in the morning for a coffee or late in the afternoon enjoying a drink after a day exploring. The bathroom was fine and had a good shower with dual options. Erika also explained and went over and above assisting us with the national park and train packages, providing us with unlimited use of the Via dell’Amore path between Riomaggiore and Manarola. We started and finished all our days walking the path as it was truly spectacular.

“An unforgettable stay with exceptional hosts who made us feel completely at home. Will definitely be returning.”
Our stay was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, Erika and her father went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They personally collected us from the train station, which made our arrival completely stress free, and throughout our stay they were a constant source of support, offering excellent advice, tips and recommendations for places to eat, things to do and the best ways to move around the surrounding towns. The hospitality was truly outstanding. We were greeted with a thoughtful goodie basket filled with a variety of foods and snacks, which set the tone for the warm and personal service we experienced throughout our visit. The room itself was divine, incredibly spacious, beautifully maintained and with a wonderful view of the town. Every detail was carefully considered, making it a perfect retreat. What stood out most was Erika and her father’s genuine care. They were always available whenever we needed to get in touch, and at check out they were there to wish us well, which made our departure just as personal and memorable as our arrival. I cannot recommend Sotto Sale-5 Terre Affittacamere highly enough. The combination of exceptional accommodation and heartfelt hospitality made our stay unforgettable. This is a place we would return to without hesitation.

“Great stay in Riomaggiore!”
The host and her father were very nice people, we were picked up at the train station and received a warm welcome. The room is spacious, has a good shower, a nice bed, fridge, safe and a balcony. Everything you need. The location is a bit up the hill but the positive side is that there are no bars and restaurants in front of the door that make noise at night so it is relatively quiet. Riomaggiore is a cozy town and you'll reveive a QR code that lets you walk the Via dell'Amore both ways.

“Absolutely exceptional, would recommend 100%”
The accommodation was in the perfect location, modern and clean with a beautiful terrace with a view. Even better than the property though was the hosts, Erika and her dad Aldo. Erika was always very quick to respond to any questions we had and gave lots of very useful information, Aldo was so friendly and welcoming, helping us with out luggage, giving us drinks when we got there and there were croissants and snacks and drinks in the fridge too. Because I was writing an article, Aldo also invited us to see his vineyards and the cantina where the wine is produced and this was a highlight of our trip. When we got ill Erika and Aldo helped us so much with finding new accommodation where we could rest and recover before our flight and medical assistance. I have to say this was the best accommodation I have ever stayed in, in terms of the property, location and hosts. Exceptional!

“Wonderful”
Our stay with Erika and her father was unforgettable! The room was spotless, fresh-smelling, with a great shower and coffee machine, and the terrace offers a breathtaking view over Riomaggiore. Evenings were peaceful, and the location is just perfect to enjoy Cinque Terre. Erika and her father were exceptionally kind and helpful, giving us great local tips, helping with our luggage, and even preparing a special surprise for our honeymoon. We would 100% stay here again – highly recommended!

Erika and Aldo were so kind, guided us from the train station so we didn’t get lost! Then offered us an incredible afternoon tea on arrival, with homegrown wine and anchovies. We had such a great time and the hospitality cannot be topped. Highly recommend!
