Santo Stefano Holidays

Historical and beautiful place! Not usual hotel rooms!

The hotel was conveniently located, and the service was good. Overall, it was a pleasant stay. However, I hope the hotel improves its Wi-Fi coverage, as the connection can become unstable when multiple guests are accessing the network.

This charming room in Vernazza was a special space for our family of 3 for the couple days we explored Cinque Terra. Like most places in these villages, one had to climb through the narrow, winding walkways and stairs to access the room, but this made it more magical for us once we checked-in and could store our rolling luggage. It was like climbing up into a castle room. While we didn't have much communication with the hosts in the days prior (despite having left a couple messages through the Expedia app as suggested), in the hour before our arrival, we had great WhatsApp comms with the host who sent an excellent video showing the path to take to the apartment allowing us to check in early using the keypad to the building entrance, and then to meet them at a different location for final check-in. While small, the room was perfect for our visit (with good airconditioning and wifi). We would stay here again! Vernazza was well positioned to explore the other villages by walking paths and trains.

Beautiful hotel, walking distance to everything. The lounge was a welcomed escape from the heat. Breakfast options were plenty and the staff were very helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Absolutely fantastic hotel, we couldn’t believe how good it was. Exactly like the photos. The hotel was built only in 2018 and the facilities are constantly kept in perfect condition and spotlessly clean. In a quiet part of town easily walkable into the main attractions and close to a bus and a tram stop, a perfect sanctuary to rest at night time. All of the staff are so kind and polite, especially Francois who looked after us very well at breakfast time. The hotel would be worth the price tag just for the comfortable rooms and location, but it has the added bonus of a free breakfast (with tons of choices and free mimosas), free luxury spa facilities and free home made lemonade and biscuits available at all times. We can’t recommend this hotel enough as a boutique stay perfect for adults wanting a luxury escape.
