La Briga

La Briga is a family-run hotel in Piaggia, a small Ligurian hamlet at the foot of the Maritime Alps, that welcomes pets at no extra charge and offers free WiFi throughout the property.

The four room types, all 30 sqm, are designed for couples and families: from the Double Room with Mountain View to the Quadruple Room with an extra sofa bed, to the option with a bunk bed for those traveling with children. Each room has a private bathroom with bathrobe and complimentary toiletries, a flat-screen TV, and views of the surrounding peaks or the inner garden.

Outside, guests will find a well-kept garden, a panoramic terrace and a bar to relax in after excursions. The reception, staffed 24 hours a day, speaks German, English, Spanish and French and is ready to help arrange outdoor activities, from trekking to paragliding. Parking is free, and the location, among mountain trails and small villages, is especially appreciated by couples, who rated it 9.6 for a romantic stay away from the crowds.

Plan your stay at La Briga

Family-run hotel in Piaggia, among the Ligurian Maritime Alps, with garden, panoramic terrace, pet-friendly rooms with mountain views and free parking included.

Room types

The four rooms at La Briga share the same 30 sqm floor area and the same essential comforts: private bathroom with shower, bidet and bathrobe, wardrobe, flat-screen TV and an electric kettle for an evening tea. All face the surrounding mountains, except for one option that faces the inner garden.

The range covers different needs: the Double Room with Mountain View is designed for couples, while the two Quadruple Rooms, one with an extra sofa bed and the other with a bunk bed, suit families with children or small groups of friends. Those looking for flexibility can choose the Double/Twin Room with a French bed, suitable both for couples and for those who prefer more space than expected.
