But like much of Cinque Terre, it is a vertical place. From the train or ferry, we had to walk up the main road, then up some steps to our hotel, then up more steps to our room.

Very spacious living room with day-bed sofa and a bedroom with a queen bed. The bathroom made me jealous - haha- was very luxurious. Our bfast was included and there's so many options in the am. Fresh eggs made to order as well. The coffee can't be beat. And the focaccia! We ate it all day long, every chance we got. When we left, they gave some to my daughter for our train ride to Firenze. It was super addicting. Give in to the focaccia temptation often while in Cinque Terre. You won't taste it's like again. The staff was super helpful and kind. Can't recommend them enough! They made our stay in Cinque Terre the best!

Location ~ farthest end from the Spiaggia di Fegina and a good walk from the train station. For passing tourists, a chillaxing spot on the unnoticed side apart from the main center. The bar ~ local, more like a tiki setup with falling apart decor and handwritten menus. Music playing feels more Caribbean than Mediterranean. Only the patio for seating, thankful for the umbrellas shielding the sunburning rays. The drinks ~ usual Italian pilsners, beach cocktails. Pours on the heavier side had our group drinking more than we should have and our obnoxiousness elevated to annoyance of others. Appetizers always seem delish when pairing with a lot of drinks. Bathroom available for diners. Time flies when having fun so check your watch frequently; almost missed the train again. The perfect beach bar. Statua Il Gigante ~ about 100 yards away at the end of the beach is a private villa with an eye popping sculpture that is the symbolic icon of the town. Named Neptune and in 14 meters in height, named fittingly as Gigante. Carved out of the cliff rock, he once guarded the beach with muscular arms & trident. This guy & villa survived bombings from the world war and natural elements but it is evident it is wearing down on him. He needs a drink from the bar.

It literally takes us a 5-10min walk to get down to the bottom beach area and a few seconds to get to shops in town. Andrea, the owner/host, was fantastic! He was nice and greeted us daily as we left and came back. He gave us useful hints on where to eat, places to see, and options to exploring all the towns of cinque terre. The maid was sweet and super nice as well - she's been working here for 15+ years. That's some local service for you. It's also conveniently located next to a market and laundromat! The rooms were on the smaller side but the beds comfortable and there's some crazy black out shutters making it easy to catch up on zzzz's! The wifi worked well and even though the bathroom was super tiny, the water pressure was strong and fantastic. Just requires a bit of maneuvering to put stuff in there cause there is zero counter space. There is a tiny fridge, a closet, and hair dryer, etc. Great place, great location. AC doesn't work though so it was a bit muggy and hot and we didn't want to open the windows cause the mosquitoes are so bad!

We stayed for two nights in this little hotel, and we very pleased with our stay. Located only a…read moreshort walk from the Monterosso train station on the main street, Via Roma, we found the accommodation basic, but impeccably clean. What really made our stay was Andrea, the extremely friendly and helpful owner. He really went out of his way to make us feel welcome, and to recommend several restaurants for us to try - all of which were excellent and very good value. Though the walls were a bit thin (we could hear nearly everything in the halls), for the price we paid, it was a great find. I'd gladly stay here again.

It's more like an AirBNB than a hotel. We only ever saw one staff member who seemed to be both the…read moremaid and the front desk. She was friendly and very helpful (drew us a great map of town and made us dinner reservations) but she is not on duty often and rooms are cleaned only every other day (I don't need a full cleaning very often but I like fresh towels every day). We arrived at 4 pm but there was no one there to let us in. Fortunately we had been emailed instructions in advance. The directions to find the place were confusing (it's right as you exit the tunnel from the train station and right next door to a mini mart; the door is more wood than yellow), but once we found the door we were able to use the code to get into the building and had no problems getting into our room. If you're from the US and won't have cell service in Italy make sure you get the building code in advance! I booked the "luxury room" with a terrace for a small extra fee. It was immaculately clean and perfectly comfortable but rather sparsely appointed and not really what I'd call luxury. We didn't make as much use of the terrace as I had hoped, largely because we were out trying to see the other four towns, but partly because the chairs didn't have cushions and weren't super comfortable. In early May the temperature still dipped into the low 50s at night and even with the blanket we found in a cupboard we were quite chilly. The biggest drawback to this room, however, is that it is up four flights of stairs and the building has no lift. It was pretty unpleasant to come back to after a long day of hiking. They really should make this clearer on their website. For us it was merely an annoyance but for the disabled or elderly it could be a much bigger issue. There is free wi-fi but it was extremely spotty and I was never able to get it to work in the bedroom. Overall, the location is great and the price struck me as reasonable but I can't really enthusiastically recommend San Giorgio. It was a serviceable place to stay in Manarola, which was our favorite Cinque Terre village, but not quite what we had hoped for.

A short walk to the train station easily connects to the other Cinque Terre towns and the hiking trails are also very accessible. The view comes at the cost of a healthy trek up the hill. We visited all the towns and felt that Manarola had the small town, not as touristy, good food vibe we were looking for.

Pros: Parking is available! This is a rarity! The view as previously mentioned is SPECTACULAR . The hotel is above the Cinque Terre on the mountain with 180 degree ocean view. Free breakfast (albeit nothing fancy) Cons: The actual hotel is very basic with no frills whatsoever. Rooms are not well decorated, no safes, no hotel restaurant or kitchen. It felt like a dorm or apartment building. Not actually in the Cinque Terre! Overall: I don't think I would stay here again. I would prefer to stay in Manarola or one of the other towns in the Cinque Terre. It is pretty irritating to have to take a shuttle up and down or pay €15 for a ride into town.

It is on the top floor, not to far from the ocean, yet overlooking the entire town. It has a private, semi-wrap balcony, large enough for a table and some chairs. I can't speak for the other rooms, but the Marco Polo room comes with a kitchenette and lots of windows. The only downsides were the noisy mornings due to construction (which I imagine won't always be going on) and we couldn't turn on the heater for more than a couple hours at night. The owner said it was due to regulations, but it was too inconsistent. I think the owner was personally restricting our use of the heater. All things considered, I would definitely stay here again. Nothing beats the view.

The inn keeper and the cleaning lady are very nice. They helped when I got sick to find a doctor in town. I would stay here again.
