Il tulipano

Il tulipano is a guest house in Ventimiglia, Liguria, located about 400 metres from the beach and just 250 metres from Ventimiglia railway station.

The property, entirely non-smoking, offers three room types: one double room with private bathroom and two standard single rooms with shared bathroom, all air-conditioned, soundproofed and equipped with flat-screen TV and a tea and coffee set. The double room, the largest at 20 square metres, is the only one with a private bathroom featuring a shower and bidet; the two single rooms, of 14 and 16 square metres, share a common bathroom but offer the flexibility of choosing between a single bed or a large double bed.

Il tulipano is particularly appreciated by couples, who rate the location 9.4. Nearby there are numerous bars and restaurants just steps away, while Ventimiglia’s historic centre and the French coast, with Menton and Monaco, are easily reachable by car or train. A practical address for those visiting the western Ligurian coast and the French Riviera without giving up the convenience of getting around on foot.
