Highly recommend this hotel to use as your base to explore Cinque Terre region. You can access the villages by ferry from front of hotel or by train from La Spezia. ##### Laura Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### patricia Jul 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great hotel ##### patricia Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason Jul 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Wonderful hotel and location and staff ##### Jason ### 10/10 Excellent #### Edward Dec 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent in all respects!

Gym is literally in an entirely different building. We also asked for a cab to be called to get back to the train station and it was literally 2x what it cost to get there. ##### Andrew Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hagen V Apr 4, 2023 The staff was terrific and the property is well maintained, also in a great location ##### Hagen V Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Loris Jun 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent location to explore Cinque Terre ##### Loris Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zarife Sep 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The best Hotel in Portovenere, the location is exceptional and the view is spectacular ##### Zarife Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sarah Sep 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed at Grand Hotel Portovenere to explore Cinque Terre for three nights during our honeymoon. The hotel was well located for catching the bus or ferry, but doesn’t have a train station. Unfortunately the cost of transfers offered by the hotel to book were extortionate (400€ approx to Pisa Airport - a 1 hr 15 min journey). The ferry was running hourly until early evening during our stay, and we enjoyed seeing Cinque Terre from the sea. However, the trains between the villages are much quicker to use - it takes nearly 1.5hrs to get from Portovenere to Monterosso by ferry. The staff at the hotel were very friendly, and the room was comfortable and clean. We had booked a room with a sea view, which was lovely. Although not necessarily expected, it was surprising that for a 5 star hotel, we weren’t provided with any extras for this being part of our honeymoon - the only hotel during our trip around Italy to not do so. The additional bottles of water provided each evening were appreciated. We did eat at the restaurant one night, which was a bit underwhelming, and we would recommend Porto 82 a few minutes walk away instead. However the view from the restaurant if you manage to get a table on the terrace is beautiful. We had breakfast on the terrace in the mornings, and it was the best we had during our Italy trip, particularly the freshly made to order eggs. ##### Sarah Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bill Jul 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful location!
