Hotel Svizzera is a family-run 3-star hotel located on the seafront of Arma di Taggia, in Liguria, about 8 km from Sanremo, with an in-house restaurant serving Ligurian specialities and international dishes overlooking the sea.
The rooms, all air-conditioned and equipped with a private bathroom, satellite TV and safe, are spread between the main building and a small annexe a few metres away. The offer includes single, double, triple and quadruple solutions, some with city views and, when available, with views of the sea and the beach. Every morning guests find a sweet and savoury breakfast with homemade pastries, cakes and jams.
The property is suited to those looking for a simple and informal seaside stay, just steps from the beach and the cycle path that runs along the coast. It is also convenient for those travelling by car, being about 10 minutes from the A10 motorway and 20 minutes from Imperia, while Nice-Côte d’Azur Airport can be reached in about an hour.
The rooms at Hotel Svizzera share a simple and functional setup: private bathroom with shower or bathtub, air conditioning, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, safe and soundproofed walls. Most accommodations offer a city view, while some overlook the Ligurian Sea, though this cannot be guaranteed. Room sizes range from 13 to 19 square metres, with options designed for solo travellers, couples and small family groups.
In addition to the rooms in the main building, two economy types are located in an annexe about 15 metres from the main building, with a ceiling fan instead of fixed air conditioning. The Standard Quadruple Room, the largest in the range at 19 sqm, is designed for larger families, while the Single Room is the most compact choice for those travelling alone, equipped with a bidet and hairdryer.
Double room with simple furnishings, LCD TV and a fully equipped private bathroom with bathtub. It has a city view and, when available, glimpses of the Ligurian Sea, which cannot be guaranteed at the time of booking.
Compared to the Standard Double, this triple room shares the same size but offers two alternative bed configurations to choose from at the time of booking, to suit groups or families with one extra guest.
This is the largest room in the property, at 19 sqm, designed for families or small groups of up to four people. Like the other main units, it enjoys a city view and, in some cases, a sea view.
Unlike the main rooms, this option is located in a small annexe about 15 metres from the hotel building and is cooled by a ceiling fan rather than air conditioning. It offers two alternative bed configurations and a city view.
The most compact room in the property, designed for a single guest. The private bathroom with shower includes a bidet and hairdryer, while the room is soundproofed and equipped with a safe and city view.
Located, like the other economy room, in the annexe 15 metres from the main building, this quadruple room stands out for its bunk bed paired with a double bed, ideal for families with children, with ceiling fan and city view.
A second single room type available in the property, with the same amenities as the first: bidet, hairdryer, safe, soundproofing and city view, for those looking for an alternative with the same room size.
Hotel Svizzera offers a restaurant with sea views and an in-house bar, as well as the option to have breakfast delivered to the room. General services include a shuttle service, luggage storage, a safe at reception, a lift and daily housekeeping, useful for those staying several days without organisational worries.
The beachfront location allows direct access to the sea and water sports, while nearby cycling, hiking and horse riding are available for those who want to explore the hinterland. The rooms are air-conditioned, soundproofed and equipped with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and internet connection.
The hotel accepts pets on request, with a possible surcharge, and is also a suitable environment for families thanks to the availability of family rooms and children’s meals offered by the restaurant.
Hotel Svizzera is located on the seafront of Arma di Taggia, a seaside hamlet in the municipality of Taggia, along the western coast of the Ligurian Riviera, just 20 metres from Bussana beach and a few dozen metres from other equipped beaches such as Vittoria Beach, reachable in about 250 metres. The area is served by a coastal cycle path very popular with those who want to get around on foot or by bike along the coastline.
The centre of Sanremo is about 8 km away, reachable in a few minutes by car or via the Taggia-Arma railway station, 1.5 km from the hotel, while Sanremo’s station is about 5 km away. By car, the A10 motorway is about 10 minutes away, Imperia about 20 minutes, and Nice-Côte d’Azur Airport about an hour’s journey, making the property convenient also for those arriving from the French Riviera.
There is no shortage of dining options nearby: the Clipper restaurant is just 30 metres away, while Pizz’All and La Pera Rossa are about 50 metres away. For those who want to venture a little further, in Sanremo you can visit Villa Nobel and the gardens of Villa Ormond, about 5 km away. In summer, the proximity to the sea allows for swimming, snorkelling and windsurfing, while in the low season the area is well suited to walks along the cycle path and excursions into the Ligurian hinterland, among olive groves and hilltop villages.
Reviews particularly praise the beachfront location, rated 9.3, and the helpfulness of the staff, at 8.6. Cleanliness and comfort receive good but more modest ratings, a sign of a simple and genuine property rather than a luxury-oriented one.
