Wonderful

The rooms & bathrooms are a little old fashioned but I quite like that. It suits the building.
For breakfast I would have liked to see more seasonal fruit like melon, nectarines, figs - otherwise it was pretty good.
The only reason for 4 stars is the building is not new, but I had a really lovely stay and the staff were very helpful. Everything felt luxury except for the price. I especially appreciated the outdoor bar/cafe and the bountiful complimentary breakfast.
The hotel exceeded my expectations. The staff was professional, friendly, and hospitable. While a bit dated it is refreshingly elegant. Sometimes it seemed like a
‘ Downton Abbey experience. Breakfast was quite lovely. I would love to return to this hotel!
Phenomenal hotel in the heart of Sestri and across the street from the beach.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Great location, the room was nice with two big windows, acoustic windows, really nice breakfast with many options, the hotel needs an upgrade on amenities, looks too old and lacks maintenance.
