Magiskt ställe!

Fantastisk ställe som jag varmt kan rekommendera, rum, säng, läge, frukost allt i toppklass! Stranden mitt över gatan, pool på området och all service man kan tänka. Helt klart 5/5 och en guldstjärna! Prova även ! den lilla stranden i bukten med resturanger så mysig ca 6-7 min attgå till.

Magisk miljö i city

Ett litet palats och en oas vid havet! Sån jäkla wow-känsla över hela stället! Bra restaurang, magisk bar, riktigt bra service och en helt magisk miljö! Rummen är lite äldre men ändå bra! Poolområdet super! Skönt med egen strand nedanför.

5 nätter i Sestri Levante

Bästa hotellet, precis vid stranden och shoppinggata om hörnet. Nära till ett flertal restauranger i den mycket trevliga byn Sestri Levante. I trädgården finns ett fint poolområde där man kan hitta både sol och skugga. Beachen var också jättefin, där man kan hyra solstolar samt en bar med drycker och lättare lunch. Hotellbaren kan också rekommenderas för en drink innan middagen. Fantastiskt frukost Återkommer gärna hit.

Public areas were attractive and breakfast was excellent. Our room, on the first floor, was dark with a view of the air conditioner. Be mindful of the room you book, and get.

The grandness and splendor of the interior and furnishings unbelievable. Great location.

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful hotel in beautiful grounds. Bedroom was large and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and served in the garden which was a real treat. The pool area is very well situated in the garden with plenty of recliners and gazebos. The hotel is situated across from the sea front and the hotel has its own private beach for which you have to pay extra (50 euros a day for 2 recliners and an umbrella, a bit steep in my opinion). The Main Street of Sestri L is just behind the hotel and has a great choice of bars and restaurants. I would highly recommend this hotel and am sure we will be back in the future
