Excellent location and the bonus of the private beach. All the staff were very welcoming and friendly, each one went above and beyond the normal expected service, from reception to the restaurant staff, they all made our anniversary trip very special. I would highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay again.

The staff and the location were the highlight of this hotel. Lovely and welcoming, we felt comfortable immediately. The view from our room was spectacular. And a short and beautiful walk brought us to the heart of Portofino. We loved everything about our stay and would gladly stay here again

Good hotel in a great location with a private beach club that overlooks the public beach in Portofino. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was also very good. The building and facilities were older, but that seems to come with Portofino. There was an issue with the room safe that the staff fixed, although the television in the room continued to freeze and did not appear to be fixable. Overall we had a good experience and would recommend the hotel on the understanding that the price reflects that fact that everything is more expensive than normal in Portofino.

4/10 Fair

Daytime staff were fantastic: friendly, helpful, and went out of their way, even upgrading us to a slightly better room without being asked. Unfortunately, the nighttime team didn’t match that standard — when we asked reception for a simple wine glass, we were told it wasn’t possible and were redirected to the restaurant next door. Small thing, but it stood out against how attentive the day staff had been. The rooms themselves felt tired and in need of renovation — not what we’d expect from a 4-star property. Breakfast was another weak point: a limited selection served only in a cramped indoor area, despite the hotel having a large terrace that would make far better use of the space. The food quality at breakfast also fell short. Overall, a beautiful setting let down by inconsistent service and dated facilities. Worth it for the beach access, but the hotel has room to improve to justify its rating.

Amazing location just far enough from the tourist center but easy walk to it. Also with easy access to a private, scenic beach. Our second time staying there and would definitely return but wouldn’t recommend dining there.

This is a hidden gem in Portofino. The hotel offers a hidden pathway to the heart of Portofino, which can be reached in approximately five minutes on foot. You will understand how important it is once you become familiar with the area. The main road is narrow and hard to walk on, so the path comes in super handy. The hotel also has access to the hidden beach, which you can barely see from the road. Absolutely breathtaking. Hotel staff are friendly and courteous. Although the breakfast hall is small, the food and the service are great. There is a 40 Euro parking fee per day, so count that into account if you are arriving by car.

6/10 Good

We really want to be kind here as the staff was great. The view from the terrace was magical. But, an ever present sewer smell was always in the room. We didn’t complain but the oil/air freshener diffusers in the halls let us know it was a known thing. We had a 2 story double which included a very tight spiral staircase which was not easy to navigate. Upstairs double bed room area included a small 13” tv/monitor with no power cable and was not attached to the cable box. No remote was seen so we assumed it was some kind of weird storage. This room was $$$$ and outside of the portofino view was really not worth it. When visiting Portofino if you you cant swing the Splendido then probably best to stay in santa margharita ligure.

The employees were very friendly ! Especially Signore Rossano e Signore Andrea. Can not be better. I had a room with view to the sea. The greatest view i ever had. The hotel is located near the harbour of Portofino, you reache it in 8 minutes walking by feet.
