Room types

The six room types at The Vernazza Main Plaza range from the Economy and Budget Double Rooms, both 15 m² designed for two people, up to the 40 m² Family Studio able to accommodate up to six guests. All the rooms share air conditioning, soundproofing, a private bathroom with shower, flat-screen TV with streaming services, coffee machine and independent entrance, a set of features designed for those staying in Vernazza whether for one night or a longer period.

What sets the rooms apart is mainly the view and the size: the Quadruple Room, the Family Room and the Sea View Double Room offer glimpses of the sea and the village, while the Economy, Budget and Studio options overlook the inner courtyard or remain more functionality-oriented, with sizes ranging from 15 to 40 m².

Budget Double Room

15 m² · Private bathroom

1 large double bed
Max 2 guests
Courtyard view, Courtesy set, Air conditioning

The property’s most affordable option, designed for two people, with a view of the inner courtyard rather than the sea. Despite the compact size (15 m²), nothing essential is missing: private bathroom with shower, courtesy set, air conditioning and a tea and coffee making set.

Double Room with Sea View

15 m² · Private bathroom

Bidet, Extra space, Independent entrance

This is the largest room in the guest house, at 40 m² and able to accommodate up to six people thanks to four combined beds.

28 m² · Private bathroom

2 single beds and 1 large double bed
Max 4 guests
Sea view, Bidet, Soundproofing

Similar in size to the Quadruple Room but with a different bed combination, designed for families with children. The sea view accompanies the stay, while the private bathroom with bidet and walk-in shower and the soundproofed walls ensure comfort even with more people in the room.

Economy Double Room

15 m² · Private bathroom

1 large double bed
Max 2 guests
Courtyard view, Air conditioning, Independent entrance

The property’s simplest room type, with a view of the inner courtyard and the same compact size as the other 15 m² double rooms. The private bathroom with walk-in shower and air conditioning still make it a practical and essential base for those spending little time in the room.

Location & what to see

The Vernazza Main Plaza is located on Piazza Guglielmo Marconi, in the heart of the village of Vernazza, one of the five villages that make up the Cinque Terre National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The property is about 30 meters from the village’s small pebble beach and just steps from the harbor, traditional restaurants such as Gianni Franzi and Burgus, both a few meters away, and the main square with its bars, including Vineria Santa Marta about 100 meters away.

Vernazza’s train station is just 150 meters from the property, convenient for reaching the other Cinque Terre villages within minutes: Monterosso al Mare is about 2.9 km away, while Corniglia, with its pebble beach, is 2.4 km away. Those arriving from farther away will find La Spezia Centrale train station 25 km away and, in the same city, the Amedeo Lia Museum 27 km away; the nearest airport, Pisa Galileo Galilei, is 107 km away, a useful connection for those planning a longer trip to Liguria.

The location just 150 meters from the entrance to the Cinque Terre National Park makes the property a good base for those wishing to walk the scenic trails linking the five villages, among terraced vineyards and olive groves. In summer, the clear waters along the coast invite swimming and boat trips towards Monterosso and Riomaggiore, while in spring and autumn the same mule tracks are suited to less crowded walks, with views over the sea and the vineyards that produce Sciacchetrà, the area’s famous dessert wine.
