Plan your stay at Hotel Piccolo Lido

Beachfront hotel in Bordighera, with a Mediterranean cuisine restaurant, air-conditioned rooms overlooking the Ligurian Sea and direct access to the town's seafront promenade.

Room types

The rooms at Hotel Piccolo Lido range in size from 15 to 17 square metres and share essential amenities for a beach holiday: air conditioning, private bathroom with shower, flat-screen satellite TV, minibar and a tea and coffee making set. Each accommodation can host up to two adults, with the possibility of adding a child on request.

What mainly distinguishes the different room types is the view and position within the building: options range from the standard Double Room, without a direct sea view, to versions with balcony and views of the Ligurian Sea located on the first or second floor, up to the ground-floor solution with a frontal view and the third-floor Deluxe, furnished with designer pieces. Those looking for a balance between price and view can opt for the room with partial sea view, facing either the eastern or western side of the coastline.

Location & what to see

Hotel Piccolo Lido is located directly on the seafront promenade of Bordighera, just steps from the town beach that stretches right in front of the property. The area is typical of the Riviera dei Fiori, with palm trees, beach clubs and a pedestrian promenade that invites walks in every season. The old town, with its medieval alleys, can be reached in about 5 minutes on foot.

Several bars and restaurants can be found nearby, such as Maresol just 40 metres away and Caffè della Posta at 250 metres, ideal for a drink or a casual meal without moving far from the sea. Those travelling by car will find an on-site garage, while Nice Côte d’Azur Airport is about 37 km away.

Bordighera beach, just 20 metres from the hotel, is the starting point for swims and days in the sun from May to September, while in the low season the promenade remains pleasant for walks and bike rides thanks to the rental available at the hotel. For a cultural excursion, the Hanbury Botanical Gardens are about 9 km away and are worth a visit for their collections of Mediterranean plants; not far away, in Sanremo, Villa Nobel and the Jean-Cocteau Museum can be reached at about 10 and 13 km respectively, for those wishing to alternate the sea with a few hours of local art and history.
