Affittacamere Sull’Arco is a guest house in the historic centre of Monterosso al Mare, in the Cinque Terre, about 150 metres from the village beach. The property has no fixed reception: guests arrange their arrival time directly with the manager, in an informal hospitality style typical of small Ligurian inns.
The three available rooms, from the Single to the Family Room, are all air-conditioned and feature a private bathroom with shower, flat-screen TV and minibar, designed for short stays in the village. The Family Room, the largest, can accommodate up to four people and also offers a view of the village.
The location is one of the most appreciated features: restaurants, ice cream shops and wine bars are just steps from the entrance, while Monterosso train station can be reached on foot in a few minutes, convenient for those who want to travel along the Cinque Terre coast without a car.
Affittacamere Sull’Arco offers three room types designed for different needs: from the more compact Single, ideal for solo travellers, to the Double Room for couples, up to the more spacious Family Room, able to accommodate up to four people thanks to the combination of a double bed, single bed and sofa bed. All rooms share some basic amenities: air conditioning, private bathroom with shower, flat-screen TV and minibar, features designed to make even a short stay in the centre of Monterosso comfortable.
The main differences concern the size and capacity: from the 7 square metres of the Single to the 20 of the Family Room, which also stands out for its village view. As there is no reception, hospitality is direct and personalised, with the manager communicating with guests to organise arrivals and departures, in a style more similar to a village inn than a traditional hotel.
The most compact of the property’s rooms, designed for two people looking for a practical pied-à-terre in the centre of Monterosso. Equipped with air conditioning, flat-screen TV and private bathroom with shower, it is the property’s cosiest option.
This is the property’s largest room, with 20 square metres designed for families or small groups of up to four people. The only one of the three with a city view, it combines a double bed, single bed and sofa bed for flexible use of space.
The property’s smallest room, designed for solo travellers looking for just the essentials, steps from the village centre. At 7 square metres it is the most compact option in terms of space, but it keeps the same basic amenities as the other rooms.
Affittacamere Sull’Arco offers non-smoking rooms with air conditioning, a private bathroom with shower and hairdryer, free toiletries and a refrigerator, features that make even a short stay in the village comfortable. Every room has a flat-screen TV, minibar and tea or coffee maker, while free WiFi covers all areas of the property.
General services include daily housekeeping, luggage storage, a safe and private check-in and check-out, useful for those organising their arrival independently since there is no traditional reception. A tour desk is also available for those wishing to arrange visits to the Cinque Terre.
The property has family rooms for those travelling in groups or with children, and an on-site mini-market for everyday small needs. The premises are entirely non-smoking and equipped with smoke and security alarms.
Affittacamere Sull’Arco is located in the heart of the historic centre of Monterosso al Mare, the northernmost and one of the most visited villages of the Cinque Terre, on a typical alley just steps from the seafront. This is the liveliest area of the village, with cobbled alleys, shops and venues that stay busy until late, especially during the summer months.
The historic centre beach is about 150 metres away, while Fegina beach, larger and sandy, is 300 metres away. Monterosso train station, the starting point for reaching the other Cinque Terre villages along the Genoa–La Spezia line, is just 500 metres away.

From here you can set off on foot along the trails of the Cinque Terre National Park, which start just a few hundred metres from the property, ideal in spring and autumn when temperatures are milder. In summer, life is centred around the beaches and diving from the rocks, while in the cooler months Monterosso is well suited to walks towards Vernazza, also reachable by train in a few minutes. The village centre offers numerous restaurants and ice cream shops literally steps from the entrance, convenient for informal dinners after a day of hiking.
