Best Hotels near Santuario Sacro Cuore, Borzonasca

Very beautiful sea view hotel, very new facilities, comfortable bed, good internet speed, bars, restaurants and swimming pool, convenient transportation, many restaurants around, beach outside the hotel, walking distance to yacht dock and shops. There is parking in the hotel, but it costs 20 euros a day.

The problem with this hotel is that, when you pay over 500 € / night, or even more, is it enough for you that the location of the hotel is perfect or do you whant value for your money? I travel a lot and has been much expensive places too, and In my opinion, when you pay such amount, you have to get good value for your money, especially when the problems are easy to salve. When we arrived to hotel, first we met the outside ashtray as in picture. We had two different room and the first one's wc has very very unpleasant smell ( cesspit problem ?). The second one, the drain in the shower doesnt work properly, the sink lock didn't work, couldn't lock the balcony door that did get open him self during the night by the wind and rain inside. There was two people work at the beach, for giving towels to the clients and set up sunshade. Shift is 6-7 hours, actual work is max 40 min., hotel side beach is 20 m x 2 m. One of them, Francesko, start his shift always by cleaning this very very small part of the beach but other guy never. Just give towels and look the phone. The second day, a half eated apple was at the beach, he walks 30 times near by and did not take it away ( as in the picture ). It can sound a little think but in this level hotel, or at least what they try to be, it don't work like this. Every morning there is rubbishes at the beach that waves brings and never get cleaned before Francesco start his shift. Some towels smell very strongly vinegar. As in the picture bellow, after the rain, which was surely not for the first time, they put towels under the door of the bar terrace, that water don't come inside. Is it in your opinion ok? The worst; male waiters was unbelievably arrogant! Just unbelievable. The second day I did complain, and the manager did handle the issue, for this time, but it should never be like this at the first place, never. Only good think at the hotel was that, it was very clean and reception staff was very friendly. Most of the staff don't welcome you when they met you anywhere at the hotel. This is a basic rule for this level hotel that, all staff smile and welcome clients in all occasion. After all, this hotel did absolutely not worth for this price / service level, there is a professional managing issues. There is many things which must work well all together in this business that, you can say, it's a good hotel, not only good location, clean rooms and high prices make you a good one.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the exquisite Grand Hotel Villa Balbi in Sestri Levante. It was an experience I will never forget. From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the stunning location and unparalleled hospitality this luxurious hotel offered. The hotel is in a magnificent historical villa, surrounded by lush gardens and overlooking the spectacular Ligurian Sea. The breathtaking views of the sea and the picturesque town of Sestri Levante made my stay even more memorable. Upon arrival, I was greeted by friendly and professional staff, attentive to my every need throughout my stay. Check-in was smooth and efficient. My room was delightful, with a plush, comfortable bed and a spacious bathroom with a rain shower. The room was immaculately clean, and the housekeeping staff went above and beyond to ensure it remained so during my stay. Breakfast was a lavish spread of freshly baked pastries, local cheeses, and various fruits and cereals, providing the perfect start to my day. I took advantage of the hotel's beautiful outdoor pool area. The pool area featured comfortable loungers, allowing for relaxing and soaking up the Mediterranean sun. The true highlight of my stay, however, was the exceptional service provided by the Grand Hotel Villa Balbi staff. They were always friendly, courteous, and eager to assist, making me feel at home. Their professionalism and attention to detail were commendable and contributed significantly to my overall experience. My stay at the Grand Hotel Villa Balbi in Sestri Levante was an unforgettable experience that exceeded my expectations. The stunning location, luxurious accommodations, and exceptional service create a magical and memorable getaway. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a luxurious and relaxing escape on the Italian Riviera.

I just returned from Italy where I was staying at the Hotel Stella del Mare. My brother, sister in-law, niece, nephew and adult son all stayed in the same room. There were 4 adults and 2 children and although it was a little cramped it wasn't bad. I'm not the type to spend much time in the hotel room while on vacation anyway. It was clean, had a full kitchen and a nice balcony. So, if you are the type that likes to cook breakfast and have it out on the balcony you could do so. There is a small local super market in the area along with a bunch of nice restaurants. The hotel has a decent continental breakfast for a decent price each morning. I like to get up and get out of the room fairly early in the morning so I just had the continental breakfast every morning. The pool was nice and they have regular family friendly events at the hotel and around the area. So, it is very kid friendly. Although, the hotel and area are all beautiful and worth high marks on their own, the true value of this hotel is the staff. My son and I took a train to Rome for a couple days during our stay. I had arranged for a drop off and pick up at the train station (NOT through the Hotel). The ride got us to the train station just fine but when we came back they never showed to pick us up. It was about 8pm local time. I called the hotel and explained the situation and even though there aren't any local taxi services she made a bunch of calls and found someone to pick us up and bring us back to the hotel. It was completely my mistake for not just making all transportation arrangements through the hotel in the first place but this staff person ( I wish I could give you her name) never complained she just set to task and solved my issue for me. The next time I will just make the travel arrangements through the hotel in the first place.
