Sasso di Bordighera Holidays from £270

Our room was booked as a “sea view,” but we were on the 2nd floor and could only view the ocean if we went out on the balcony and stretched to look. Unfortunately, the balcony had old used cigarette butts and was too small to sit or enjoy the view. We also visited in late August. Apparently there was a huge outdoor event happening during the same weekend of our visit. The music and public speeches were VERY loud and right outside our window. Thankfully the city requires quiet after 11:30PM, but it would have been nice to go to bed earlier than midnight. No one warned us that our stay would be disrupted by this loud event. I was disappointed with our stay and would not book with Albert 1er again as a result of this negative experience.

Great staff and service. Breakfast was awesome. Loved the setting. We will be going back.

Great location and lovely staff, the room was clean which is great. However the hotel having keys to enter/lock the room doors instead of card swipes is very inconvenient. You have to leave the room key at reception everytime you leave the hotel and collect when you come back in. The second thing is I barely slept as the room next to mine made noise up until 3am (not the hotel fault I know) but I did ring reception to explain to them this issue but they didn’t do anything about it as the noise continued

What a beautiful boutique hotel that is magnificently runs but some fabulous people. The owners are very hands on and you feel welcome and superbly cared for.

The staff at Melia Genova is so welcoming and helpful. This is a first rate hotel with comfortable rooms and plush bedding, coffee in room and a pool and spa. Be sure to book a room that includes spa access. We’ll be back!
