My husband and two adult children stayed here May 20-21, 2013. The hotel is located at nearly the top of the road in this small town. The owner, Enrico greeted us by name each time he saw us and gave us advice on what to do during our short stay. The rooms were very clean and the view from our... More

Overpriced, is what Rick Steves called it. I completely agree. AC did not work. Ants in the room. Hot water is hit or miss. When we mentioned these things, we got a friendly shrug and unhelpful, "oh well." If it was in the United States, it'd barely pass for one star. Oh, and mattresses sunk so much for a 150... More

I will start this review by saying that the accommodations were fine and clean though we later found that there are much better options available for half the price. I don't want to bore readers with a long and detailed story about what happened. The long and short of it is that when I originally made the reservation, I accidentally... More

If you are looking for somewhere safe, clean and quiet then this is the place. The rooms are separate from the main building and the room terrace is great for relaxing with a drink. Enrico the owner was extremely helpful and friendly throughout and speaks perfect English. There are several good restaurants in Riomaggiore and I would recommend using this... More

What a little gem. Perched on the hill, inside the gated area of Riomaggiore, the terrace rooms have a slice of the sea view, and are extremely well equipped with outlets, mirrors in the right places, lighting, and overall comfort for a modest property in such a perfect location. Enrico's warm welcome, always present helping hand, advice, and free parking... More

We stayed in this hotel during our trip in Liguria, Italy. The hotel is clean, comfortable. There is always running hot water and there are some TV channels in English. Other than that do not expect a lot. But I think the room is value for money. The breakfast is amazing with pastries, cheese and a selection of hams. But... More

My Wife and I stayed at Locanda del Sole for two night, mid April 2013. It rained. That said, Cinque Terre is among the most exceptional Italian destinations we have visited and plan to visit again. Like most things Italian, the hotel is not new, but well maintained. The rooms are basic, but comfortable. The owner lives on site, which... More

The hotel is family owned and operated; the owner is nothing short of amazing. He is nothing short of amazing, so helpful with tours, the hiking trails, and ferry coordination. The hotel is one of very few that has parking in the Cinque Terre, and the drive in is not for the faint of heart. Once there, the hotel is... More

My husband and I stayed at Locanda del Sol for 2 nights in November 2012. The owner Enrico was friendly and helpful when it came to explaining the little town, how to get around, and available hiking. The room was simple but clean and comfortable. Nice little patio with table and umbrella that we sat out on with a bottle... More
