Clean cute boutique hotel. Great staff Very detailed

4.0 / 10.0

Hotel room was okay. Needs renovations.. bathroom shower head set up creates a water mess. Check in with Aziz was wonderful tho, staff overall in both locations were great, def made the stay better.

8.0 / 10.0

The rooms are nicely appointed although I had some mild issues with the plumbing at first. I am not a fan of half showers, but that is common there, especially in older properties. The one caution in the bathroom is the height of the tub above the floor...it can be a bit dangerous as the floor appears to be a couple inches lower than the tub bottom...just a small warning in my particular room. Lobby is lovely. Breakfast is very pleasant and the staff works hard to make it so. The air conditioning is slow to get cool, so extra steps like closing the blinds and and sealing off the bathroom was needed as the bath had a sun filled window. Elevator is quite small but works well. Steps are open and easily used. the only terrace is at the top of the hotel. Not particularly useful. No bar, No view. Local transport to their other hotel on Paraggi beach is excellent. Clean up staff are up to the task. Location is fine...short walk to the harbor at Portofino. Nice tv and room amenities. For the rate I might have expected a bit more than provided, but overall a very nice hotel in a lovely little part of Italy.

Just had 2 nights here. Absolutely beautiful hotel within short walking distance to Portofino harbor with all the restaurants and shops. The attention to detail at this hotel is incredible. The breakfast buffet is amazing with huge variety of choices fantastic warm bread and pastries, everything you could wish for. Dyson hairdryer in the room was an extravagant touch and dried my hair in 10 min instead of 20! Definitely hope to return one day!

6.0 / 10.0

If you’re looking for location right by Portofino Marina then this is your place. There is NO shower in the rooms, only a huge tub with old style faucets, this was a huge disadvantage. The tussue box in the bathroom was empty. We weren’t given the WiFi password at check in until we called to ask and we also did not receive the free spa service and we weren’t offered any! It’s way too expensive for what we got! I don’t recommend staying there. Saint Margherita Ligure hotels are much better with better services and amenities. Also, the breakfast was very poor, no varieties and the toaster oven wasn’t working. I won’t stay there again for sure . Thanks

Amazing hotel and experience

5.0 / 10.0

Fantastic location, staff beyond friendly, has a sister hotel which provides access to a beautiful private beach, staff provided gr8 recommendations, breakfast was awesome, place superb and well maintained. Only plus could have been the room - very nice and modern but could have been a bit larger considering price

3.0 / 10.0

This was not a good hotel. Its one of the most expensive and a 5 star in Portofino. Extremely small room and no view. The floor was almost not to walk on if you dont want to wake up everyone in the room and below our room. The other Eight hotel in Parragi beach is much better. They have a fantastic view and a nice beach outside. Its free transports (5 min)between the hotel so next time we will pick this hotel and then go to Portofino with the transport in nice cars. Very friendly service at the other hotel.

Loved this hotel. The most beautiful room ever!

3.0 / 10.0

This is not a 5 star hotel - first there is no gym or spa or fitness. I thought to have 5 stars you need this. Second, no hot water and no one seemed to do much about it. We only had hot water the first day of our stay, then the second and third none and the staff was not very helpful. Third, no restaurant - only some pizzas in the room. And finally staff was not very friendly and concierge was clueless, even made us a reservation for a restaurant that was closed. The room was nice, hotel recently remodelled but the overall experience was negative, and this hotel cannot say they are a 5 star nor charge 5 star prices with this service.

10.0 / 10.0

We stayed in the hotel near the main square. Parking was provided and the service was excellent. The room was small but very tastefully furnished. I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

6.0 / 10.0

There were renovation works happening at the property but nothing was mentioned when I booked. The room showed a balcony in the pictures, but there were no balconies in the whole hotel, when I asked staff they said they used pictures from their other hotel in Portofino. In general the whole stay was very average

4.0 / 10.0

Beautiful hotel, easy to walk into town. Staff was very helpful and eager to help.

8.0 / 10.0

Lovely and attentive staff, room was spacious but some furniture a little tired. The bathroom only had one sliding door on the shower meaning there was always a big gap, thus a lot of water landing on the floor. Did question this with reception but didn't hear back. Rooms cleaned twice a day though, so we always had towels and mat replaced afterward. Lovely decor and location - would stay again.

5.0 / 10.0

We had a lovely stay at the hotel, the staff’s attention to details and level of service was second to none. The continental breakfast was also very good. The lobby was very well decorated and the hotel felt very welcoming. Although comfortable, the bathroom smelled of dampness and some of the corners in the shower area were rotting. A small detail that should be looked at.

8.0 / 10.0

The hotel was great, although the rooms were smaller than in the pictures. We got a junior suite and it was not at all how it appeared in the pictures. Also, the rooms are a little dated. Besides that, the staff was very friendly and the shuttle to the sister hotel to use the beach us great!

4.0 / 10.0

Staff is efficient. Will give them that, but for a VIP upgrade and $1200 a night would expect a shower. None. Bathtub only and no other rooms available. Would recommend seriously considering spending the extra money to go to the Splendido. If set on This hotel, make sure you have a shower.

10.0 / 10.0

I loved everything about this hotel. The entire staff (front reception, housekeeping, chauffeur, restaurant, etc.) were all incredibly kind and helpful. I went during my birthday and had dinner at their restaurant,The Eight, next door in Paraggi. The food was delicious and they surprised me with a lovely birthday cake! It was such a special experience. When I return to Portofino, I will definitely book with Eight Hotel.

My family and I stayed at the Eight Hotel Portofino for 7 days. After reading some of the negatives about the hotel, I wanted to cancel my booking. I am so glad that I didn't. All STAFF are excellent. We arrived a bit earlier than check in time and was given our rooms right away. The rooms were also upgraded as I had asked previously if I would be able to. Everything from the linen to the cleanliness was spot on. My daughter was not feeling well one morning and she was unable to complete her breakfast. I were aske if she didn't like her eggs and when I told the staff that she wasn't well, she made her a pot of ginger tea and a glass of freshly squeeze orange juice. Every question that we asked was answered and any request was granted. We are so happy that we stayed at the Eight Hotel Portofino. Since there is a sister hotel in Paraggi that has a restaurant, we were shuttled there. Just want to say a big thank you to the Manager and staff who did their best to make our stay a pleasant one. Would stay here again. It was a 5 star treatment.

Nothing worked in this room. We had to call for service repeatedly. The staff was very nice; however, I would not stay there again. Also, the room ( a junior suite) was tiny.

5.0 / 10.0

Only negative point was the size of the breakfast room which can get really cramped when full.

3.0 / 10.0

Very small rooms and significantly overpriced. Stay at another local hotel or check the room rate and make sure it is consistent with the hotel facilities. This is supposely a cuve five star hotel but it is really a three star facility. Staff is friendly and helpful overall. Clean rooms.

1.0 / 10.0

Booked this hotel for 2 nights for a friend. She arrived late in the evening. Next morning, she woke to find that there was no running water in her room. When she complained to the hotel, they suggested she used the spa to wash, which she did although we could not find any towels. When she returned to the hotel that evening, there was still no water from the shower, and a mere dribble from the sink tap. When we complained to the GM, Christian Del Gatto, there was no satisfactory answer: according to him, the lack of water was due to a town-wide issue. When it was pointed out that her travel companion was staying in another hotel in Portofino and experienced no such problems, he became agitated, intimating they were accusing him of lying. (Also, how was there water in the spa but not in the room if the problem was city-wide?) He did eventually promise compensation but it wasn't resolved how or when this would happen. We therefore tried to follow up with hotels.com. Hotels.com told us the compensation he offered was 30% off a future stay!! This is of course an empty gesture since Portofino is not an everyday destination, nor would we book this hotel again. When we pursued things with him directly, he said he'd asked head office and since they were not responsible for the lack of water, there would be no other offer of compensation. Once they'd pocketed the money, no refund for faulty facilities - in a 5* hotel! BEWARE. Do not pre-pay...

Hotel and location were amazing, great service but very formal, facilities were great especially the steam room in the bathroom! If anything were to be improved it would be having service or a small bar in the garden area! Overall though faultless

3.0 / 10.0

Very nice boutique hotel with chic decor. The price is expensive fir the room size but it was Portofino in height season and they had availability for 2 nights for 4 people. We did not fit comfortably into the Jr. Suite so they upgraded is to a very small suite and brought in a pull out cot. It wasn't comfortable but my kids made it work. The restaurant had a good variety of food fir breakfast including gluten free breads and soy milk. Overall, it's a nice hotel just steps steps away from the busy and touristy Portofino.

For around $xxx a night, we were expecting more. Portofino is famously expensive, but even so, the service and attention to detail should have been better. The staff were friendly but there was just a lack of perfection... we were asked if we wanted a welcome drink when we were checking in, thatd be lovely...we waited then nothing happened. The room was, as expected, small; the view disappointingly dull; the garden, though pretty, relied on AstroTurf grass; the hammock was covered in leaves. These are small things, but paying these prices, I expect things to be just right. However, they parked the car for us, the bed was comfortable, the breakfast was very good, and the location is great. Rolls Royces and Jags outside imply that the rich think these slightly imperfect things are OK, but I was expecting just a little bit better.
