Taverna del Capitano Rooms

Taverna del Capitano Rooms is a guest house in Vernazza, in the heart of the Cinque Terre, just a few steps from the sea and the village’s train station. The property offers three double rooms with private bathroom, designed for those visiting the eastern Ligurian coast while travelling light and wanting to get around on foot among the alleys, restaurants and piers.

The rooms, all around 25 square metres, feature an independent entrance, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, and a bathroom with toiletries, hairdryer and bidet. Some room types offer an extra bed or a balcony, making them suitable both for couples and for those seeking a bit more space for a third bed.

The location is the property’s strong point: Vernazza beach is just 30 metres away, the train station about 100 metres away, and the Cinque Terre National Park begins practically right outside the door. WiFi is free throughout the property, but there is no parking service or breakfast, aspects worth considering when planning your stay.

Room types

The rooms at Taverna del Capitano Rooms are three double options of about 25 square metres each, all with a private bathroom featuring a floor-level or walk-in shower, bidet, hairdryer and toiletries. Each room has an independent entrance, a wardrobe, tiled floors and a flat-screen TV with cable channels, features that make the stay practical even for those arriving in Vernazza for just one or two nights.

The differences between the room types mainly concern the bed configuration and a few distinctive details: one room offers an extra bed with a city view, another stands out for its balcony overlooking the village, while the third offers two possible bed layouts depending on guests’ needs. There is no on-site dining service, but the location in the centre of Vernazza more than makes up for it, with bars and restaurants just steps from every room.

Location & what to see

Taverna del Capitano Rooms is located in the heart of Vernazza, one of the five villages that make up the Cinque Terre National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The property is just a few steps from the small harbour and the characteristic alleys, in a pedestrian area where car traffic is almost absent and village life centres around colourful houses, shops and terraces overlooking the sea.

Vernazza beach is just 30 metres away, while the village’s train station is about 100 metres away, convenient for reaching Monterosso, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore in just a few minutes along the Cinque Terre line. La Spezia is 33 km away and Genoa’s Cristoforo Colombo airport is 107 km away, a distance that makes arriving by train more advisable than by car, also given the limited parking availability in the village.

Those staying here can enjoy trekking along the famous Sentiero Azzurro (Blue Path), which connects the five villages with views over the Ligurian Sea, particularly striking in spring and autumn when temperatures are milder. In summer, Vernazza beach and Corniglia beach, about 2.4 km away, are the most popular seaside spots, while in the evening the restaurants in the centre, such as those just steps from the property, serve fish-based dishes and the typical Ligurian focaccia. The Cinque Terre National Park, 150 metres away, also offers guided trails and scenic viewpoints accessible year-round.

Vernazza Beach — small pebble beach right below the village 30 m

Vernazza Train Station — connects to the other Cinque Terre villages in just a few minutes 100 m

Cinque Terre National Park — scenic trails between the villages and the Ligurian coast 150 m

Gianni Franzi — traditional restaurant specialising in local fresh fish 30 m
