Fantastic location in a great little town. Absolute waterfront with a pool, very classy little hotel. Monica was fantastic helping us with our rental car company, by calling them on our behalf to arrange a pick up. We arrived after a stressful 3 hour drive and without asking Monica sent us two glasses of prosecco to our room, all class.... More

The hotel has an excellent location at the waters edge. Our room had a great view of the Bay. The staff were helpful and attentive. The breakfast was good, with great views of the harbour. On hot sunny days it was good to have the pool and lagoon area for swimming and relaxing as the beaches get very busy. The... More

Not sure why this hotel isn't more highly rated. We stayed there recently and I would say it's ideally situated for a 4-star choice in this town. The Metropole has nicer grounds but is a step up in cost, and the Helios is right on the water. Get a second (not third) floor room with the large terrace - lovely... More

We enjoyed our stay at Helios. The staff was friendly. Breakfast was very nice. Beautiful views from the pool terrace and rooms. Santa Margherita is an old, cosy and beautiful resort. Good base to explore Cinque Terre.

Walk in the room & the sea view just eye catching! good location, close to main street & places to eat, to shop, to train or bus or boat! Rooms are clean but very very small especially the bathroom... the basin just on your lap while sitting on the toilet! >< you'd better stay at the balcony or poolside! I... More

€160 for a standard room facing a busy street. No parking space (you have to put your car in a parking lot "down town"). Worn interior. No lightbulb in a lamp (fixed later by butler), No Kleenex paper towels (box empty - not fixed by butler). No sanitary bags (box empty). Clean sheets but stiff bed. Ordinary "continental" breakfast in... More

Chose the hotel based on previous trip advisor reviews and very nice photographs on the hotel website. We had 3 rooms for 4 adults & 2 children. 2 of the rooms were sort of interconnected and had sea views. Total stay of 5 nights. Pros: - Excellent location, short 5 minute walk from train station and right there on the... More

Stayed in a superior double which had a balcony almost as large as the room looking out to sea - a spectacular position. Room 10 was adequate but the en suite so small when using the toilet your knees were under the wash basin. Toiletries were only replaced on request.. New swim pool and sunbathing facilities were second to none,... More

HELIOS hotel had the only availability when we planned to visit the riviera but it is the place I will go back to for sure. We had read all reviews and I have to admit that I was skeptical a bit but everything dissipated the second I stepped out on the terrace of their superior double room and witnessed a... More
