We really enjoyed our stay at Niria. You must know that it is not conveniently located but if you are looking for a charming, cost-effective and peaceful place to stay in Cinque Terre..this is it! You have to take a bus to get up to Volastra from Monarola (1.5 euro). And sometimes you will find yourself waiting for the bus... More

My husband and I were planning our dream trip to Italy and wanted to incorporate the Cinque Terre into our itinerary. We couldn't have picked a more idyllic place. The room was clean, comfortable and efficient. NiRia is actually in a very small town (Volastra) outside of Riomaggiore where the parking is convenient and any easy bus ride from the... More

We stayed for a couple of nights and we whished we stayed more. The rooms are really cosy, clean and comftable. The terrace is perfect for a peaceful dinner or just to relax. You can see the sea even Volastra is in the top of the hill. But, to be honest, what makes Niria special is their people. They make... More

This place is stuffed full of positive karma and you will want your dollars supporting this family. The B&B is located away from the hustle and bustle of the 5 towns, but we ended up enjoying the peacefulness and wiggling away from the crazy tourists. We used the shuttle very frequently and it runs in a timely manner and the... More

NiRia is a great place to stay when exploring the beautiful Cinque Terre landscape. Nice and clean rooms, beautiful view from the terrace, attentive and friendly hosts, a small fridge in the room, typical italian breakfast (cakes, sweets, jogurth - but no cheese, eggs or fruits) and a great location directly at one of the hiking trails between Corniglia, Volastra...

NiRia was simply fantastic. Upon arriving to this quaint seaview B&B, we were welcomed by the owners with maps and tips to explore Cinque Terre. The included breakfast was amazing and was more than enough each morning as we started our day (served by the attentive owners). To get into town quickly we do recommend using the green bus shuttle... More

This hotel is in Volastra, NOT Manarola. The problem being that if you don’t have a car, you are at the mercy of the bus that goes from Manarola to Volastra. That bus’ last stop is 7:40pm, so if you want to go to any of the towns for dinner, you can’t unless you want to walk uphill for 30... More

My husband and I stayed at Niria for a delayed honeymoon and so much enjoyed it. Previous notes were helpful - Niria is not in a "happening" town by any means...its actually so quiet that its loud...but so refreshing!! We took the train from La Spezia to Manarola, then caught the green shuttle up the hill to Volastra...the shuttle picks... More

Franca, Andrea and their son Mattia were wonderful host. Very well balance between hospitality and privacy, not too intrusive and very helpful. We were a group of 7 people and rented the 3 available rooms. I agree with most of the comments already mentioned in here. However, I wouldn't qualify the rooms as having only the "basic necessities"! The bathroom... More
