Best Hotels near Volto Rupestre Megalitico di Gesù Cristo, Borzonasca

This place is memorable, but not for good reason. As a five-star hotel, you would expect great service, nice rooms, and amenities. This hotel has none. For a positive, I will say the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Much of the negative of the hotel has to do with the quality of the rooms, which is poor. The rooms only have a sheet - no duvet or comforter. Comfort-level of the beds is subjective, but it is objectively thin. Our room looked old and worn out. The ceiling looked like it had water damage, our toilet seat was cracked and the shower leaked water and was stained from the limestone in the water. Finally there were numerous flies and bugs. Additionally, there is no restaurant at the hotel, and no grounds to speak of, other than a small area near the jacuzzi. If you want to use the sister hotel's beach, it will cost an additional 50 Euro. This was the last stop of our honeymoon and we chose to stay at the hotel for the location in Portofino but away from the crowds, but it is not 5-star by any stretch, especially for the price of the hotel.

The staff were all fantastic and very helpful at dealing with our requests, helping us book taxis etc. The room was clean and pleasant with a nice bathroom and shower, the continental breakfast buffet was great and the views from the pool were great. The booking system for the pool meant you had a guaranteed slot but could only use it once a day. It is a shame that it costs so much money to use the beach, particularly paying $50 for two sunbeds when there's only one of you. I would happily stay again if you could use the private beach for free as a guest.

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.

The Hotel Vis a Vis is an excellent hotel commanding a wonderful position overlooking Sestri Levante. The staff are welcoming and attentive. On arrival, we received an information pack containing a range of ideas about things to do in the area. The railway station is only 10 minutes walk and trains travel towards the Cinque Terre / La Spezia to the east and Camogli and Genoa to the west. The dining room on the fourth floor and the bar on the fifth both provide fantastic views over the coast. The pool is welcoming and warm. The rooms are comfortable and the food is excellent. The hotel provided us with a wonderful week in Sestri Levante and we look forward to returning on a future occasion.

Stayed for one week. Sea view room with balcony - a must! Fantastic breakfast - nothing is too much trouble for the staff. You ask for it and they will most probably be able to make it. Beach club area is fantastic - seaside beds with access to sea as well as two infinity pools. We did not use the spa facilities. Shout out to Francesco one of the porters, he was so helpful - not just with our luggage but with restaurant recommendations as well as local things to do. And always with a lovely smile and cheery hello. Twice daily room service. Huge comfy bed. What’s not to like about this place. We would return.
