"Our check in was very disappointing. The room was very small so I request an upgrade which I was happy to pay for- the receptionist explained they had a room but it was being cleaned, for us to go enjoy lunch and come back to sort it out. On our return they had sold the room to someone else. Hotel location is nice, rooms tiny and old/ worn. Beach set up in also very small with sun loungers crammed together. the beach is lovely. Stay in a proper hotel and come use the beach!"

Top Portofino Hotel Reviews

Hotel Piccolo Portofino

10/10 Excellent

"If you can book the sea view room, you will not be disappointed."

Imperiale Palace Hotel

8/10 Good

"Beautiful historic building with lovely beach club. It is an old property so expected some of the wear and tear in the room. Decent amenities in the room- not 5 star but had what I needed. Staff is friendly and professional. Particularly enjoyed the beach club- who appeared for breakfast on a rainy day. Included breakfast was top. Definitely get a sea view balcony room. That makes all the difference."

Excelsior Palace Portofino Coast

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is absolutely beautiful. The breakfast are wonderful, included with the room charge. The oceanside pool and sundecks by the sea are fantastic. This is a wonderful five star destination and has a real WOW factor."
