Sizes range between 17 and 22 square metres, with a large double bed as the base furnishing in all room types.
What sets the rooms apart are mainly the views and outdoor spaces: some overlook the sea with a dedicated terrace, others offer city or mountain views from the balcony, while the Deluxe Double Room with 1 Extra Bed adds a sofa bed to accommodate up to four people, including two children.

Manarola’s train station is about 200 metres away, a notable advantage for those wanting to travel along the Cinque Terre line without a car: Riomaggiore can be reached in just a few minutes by train, while La Spezia Centrale is about 14 km away. Riomaggiore beach is 2 km away, and the nearest airport, Pisa Galileo Galilei, is about 70 km away. Those arriving from further afield can also rely on the San Giorgio Castle, 7 km away, home to cultural events in nearby La Spezia.
The Cinque Terre area is best experienced on foot: the famous panoramic trail connecting the villages is the starting point for hiking, while cycling and even horse riding are among the activities that can be arranged nearby. In summer, the rocky beaches and coves are the main destination, while in the cooler months the paths through the terraced vineyards offer sea views without the heat of the high season. For those who love culture, the Amedeo Lia Museum and the Technical Naval Museum, both about 7 km away, round out a day dedicated to local history.
Guests especially praise the location, rated 9 and particularly appreciated by couples, along with cleanliness and comfort, both above 8.5. Scores for staff, services and WiFi are more modest, remaining the least convincing aspect according to the reviews.
