Best Western Plus Tigullio Royal Hotel

Best Western Plus Tigullio Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We’re so glad we chose this hotel. We had an early arrival and they allowed us to check in early just after noon. Staff was so efficient and friendly. Our room was a regular king room and it was so spacious! And modern. We even had a little view of the sea. Shower was spacious, clean, with good water pressure. The location is also fantastic, close to the train station that you can walk to, and right in the heart of the town shops and ferry service to Portofino. The rooftop bar has an amazing view with cozy seating."
