Colonna 24 Luxury Room in Portovenere Near 5 Terre

Booked 2 rooms for a family of 4. Drove there with no issues with parking. Breakfast was prepared and provided from 8-10am. A perfect location, great personalized service provided by Giovanni and loves the quiet morning walks and views with less tourists.

We had an amazing experience staying at this small beautifully furnished boutique hotel. From check in to departure the owner Paolo and manager Giovanni made sure our every need was met. From carrying all our luggage to the rooms while we enjoyed a glass of fizz in the courtyard below to advising on restaurants and places to visit during our stay. Having someone carry the luggage to your room I witnessed was quite unique in Porto Venere. There are quite a few steps up to the hotel which applied to the majority of hotels here so it may not suit people with mobility issues. The hotel is completely refurbished to the highest standard with large comfortable beds and pillows for a good nights sleep. Each room has a safe, mini bar, flat screen tv, espresso machine and beautiful bathroom with large walk in shower, bidet toiletries and hairdryer. A delicious continental breakfast was provided with freshly baked bread daily and eggs cooked to order. Nothing was too much trouble for the host Giovanni who was also very knowledgeable on the area. The hotel is located in the centre of the old town close to all shops, bars and restaurants. I can’t recommend this place enough and look forward to visiting again in the future.

Very comfortable stylish spot. Great breakfast and Giovanni was a wonderful host. Hotel is on a quiet street above the main town so be sure to get instructions before you arrive. Highly recommend Colonna 24.

We enjoyed our stay very much at this lovely small hotel. The room was super clean, spacious, and beautifully renovated, in a great location. Giovanni was wonderful -- he helped with the check-in and check-out, taking our bags by cart to and from the local parking garage, which was a great relief to us, and supervised breakfast every morning. Breakfast was terrific, with options for all nationalities (from eggs to delicious Italian crostata), and it was a nice way to meet other travelers. We met the owner, Paolo, the first day and he was also very friendly. We found the town of Porto Venere to be lovely, with a great vibe and restaurants. It wasn't nearly as crowded as the Cinque Terre towns and even more beautiful, in our opinion. Highly recommended.

Truly wonderful staff. We can't put enough stars in our review for Paolo and Giovanni....they made our stay even though the hotel and location are phenomenal as well. So much to see here and not very "touristy" at all during the week. Take their recommendations as the know the best things to do. Very easy to hop a taxi to La Spezia and go to the Cinque Terre for the day. Grazie Mille.
