location is nice
This is definitely not a five star hotel! This is a scam. It struggles to be a 4 star.hotel at twice the price I often question the Booking.com rating system . It is extremely overpriced.The rooms and bathrooms and vanity are small. The food in the restaurant was not fresh. There were few guests dining there. The wine was not fresh . I felt ill after eating. The outside street restaurants are so much better.

The location was stunning. We had an amazing top floor room with 2 balconies. Incredible views. We also appreciated the welcome gift and bottle of prosecco. The staff were very nice and professional.
Some parts of hotel were dated. Would be nice to switch up the breakfast options as we were there for 5 nights. Also, I’m not sure I would recommend the Possa wine tour. It wasn’t very professional and seemed thrown together.

This is such a lovely property. The staff is exceptional- to a person, each staff member was friendly, helpful and welcoming. Rooms aren’t huge but enough room and comfortable. Modern and updated. Restaurant was great. Venus Bar/Palmaria patio has an incredible view. Gym is on smaller side but we were able to get a workout in. I don’t know why this town gets overshadowed by Cinque Terre towns and other coastal resorts. It is so beautiful.
Views location and staff are excellent

10.0 / 10.0
The location is perfect for visiting the town. The staff was truly extraordinary - warm, friendly and attentive. Nice food in the restaurant as well. Lovely little bar with good service.
The hotel is already very expensive and they charge 24 euros per day for parking too. But you need the parking in such a small town!

Beautiful hotel with excellent service. All staff I encountered were really helpful, professional and kind. The spa and treatment was excellent, and the Venus bar is wonderful.
The hot water in my room was restricted in temperature, apparently for my own safety. It meant I could not have a bath as it was only touch warm, and therefore once run the bath was not warm enough to enjoy. It was only just warm enough to shower in (much like a a swimming pool shower). I asked three days in a row if they could do anything about it, and whilst the staff were understanding and apologetic nothing could be done to change it. After busy, active days I craved a hot bath and found this really disappointing.
The Palmaria restaurant food was a little disappointing. The service, decor and position was excellent, but the food was not great. It felt that maybe the usual chef was absent. At breakfast time the poached eggs were served cold and tasted a bit weird, served on cold toast, and the one evening meal I had there was quite disappointing. The Veal Carpaccio was cooked meat and more like a ploughman's, the pasta course was OK but quite bland, and the tirimassu was terrible (you needed a knife and fork to eat it it was all so tough).
Overall I loved my stay in this lovely hotel, where the staff are their greatest asset, just let down by these two points above.

The size of the room, the view and the bar/restaurant was lovely. The staff was GREAT and very helpful. From helping us with parking & luggage to the bar staff remember what wine I had on the terrace and getting it for me at dinner!
The cost of the room compared to other 3 stays in the area was very high with comparable views & amenities.
