EIGHT HOTEL PORTOFINO Luxe

Great hotel, amazing staff and great beach! Only complaint I have is it was extremely expensive for the size of the room they gave me. I think I paid about 700+ euros a night for the room. I have traveled the world and stayed in hundreds of hotels across the globe. This is by far the smallest room I have ever had. For the price I thought I was going to have an amazing room but it was really bad. Hard for me to explain how small the room was. Just imagine the smallest room and cut it in half. Also it was pretty loud in the mornings. I would wake up to noise since the walls are paper thin. The room was So small that it was actually uncomfortable. The location was perfect and everything else was great. However, there's no way I can give them 5 stars for that garbage of a room. The food at the restaurant was nice and the beach is probably one of the best areas in town to lay.

Portofino is a beautiful place with a rich history. Be sure to try Ristorante Puny by the shore for some of the freshest Ligurian dishes around. My wife and I had the seabream with potatoes and pieces cooked in white wine, lemon, a little salt and olive oil - delicious! Ask for Andrea

The hotel is located at the end of the street of Portofino, The surroundings are not very nice but once you enter the hotel everything changes, The front door is located 200 meters from all the nice shops and restaurants of Portofino. In my opinion is located in a much nicer location than the rest of the hotels. The service and attention of everybody is exceptional, the beds and linens are good but them could be better for the price of the room but remember that in Europe is hard to find nice beds, pillow and linens, not very common. The breakfast is very nice and complete, if you want something extra like eggs you can order it separate. The service from the front desk is very good. Recommendation to rent a boat to visit the Cinque Terre area, Very nice and from the reception you can organize everything.

Fantastic! The hotel is right in the center of Portofino, but in a litlle, quiet and cosy part of that. The receptionists Gaia and Franchesca were very friendly to us! Breakfast was very good. Luxurious hotel! Totally recomended!!

We stayed here for 2 nights largely because we had booked lunch at the Splendido and didn't want to drive afterwards! The hotel was perfectly situated, a short walk to the harbour and restaurants. We were upgraded and our room was very well appointed with a huge luxurious bathroom. Our car was safely parked at the front (a must if you are driving to Portofino which has no space for cars), and the breakfast was perfectly adequate. We received a welcome coffee on arrival ad the staff were very helpful. The only negative point was that the jacuzzi was so hot as to be unbearable without sustaining burns and the second day when they had re done it, it was freezing. Don't leave without walking out to the lighthouse, the cafe is AMAZING at dusk with the views. The Splendido was also fabulous for lunch.
