    confusing location
    poor signage

    Straight talk, worth it or not?

    Charming ambiance with friendly, helpful staff who truly enhance the experience! Breakfast was delightful, featuring a variety of options served with a touch of Italian flair.

    Location is confusing with poorly marked access. it was hard to find amid the adjacent shopping mall and cheap stores.

    unpleasant smell

    Charming ambiance with daily cleaned, spacious rooms.

    Unfortunately, the room I stayed in was quite small and had a slanted floor. The shower screen was broken, making it difficult to use. Additionally, there was an unpleasant smell in the bathroom that lingered throughout my stay.

    charming ambiance
    comfortable beds
    great location
    small bathroom
    breakfast timing

    The location near the shoreline made accessing restaurants and boat tours super easy. My room had a charming vintage style with a big comfy bed. Breakfast on the terrace was a highlight, featuring fresh pastries that paired wonderfully with morning sunshine. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the water pressure in the bathroom was great. I appreciated the staff's effort. Laura at the front desk really went above and beyond to ensure my needs were met, even arranging for a crib. However, the bathroom was quite small and could use some updates. It felt cramped, which was a bit uncomfortable. Additionally, the breakfast timing could be adjusted to start earlier for tourists eager to catch the first trains. Although the hotel was clean and well-maintained, the limited areas for loading and unloading in a busy location made check-in a bit chaotic.

    The terrace is just lovely! Though the bathroom shower was tiny, the staff were super helpful, and I loved the breakfast spread. A bit of noise from the plumbing, but overall, a cozy stay! 😊

    great location
    friendly staff

    we stayed at the hotel portofino for 2 nights and loved the location, just a few mins walk from the restaurants and the beach. the friendly reception staff helped us settle in and even gave us a room with access to a patio area, which was a nice touch.

    the bathroom was pretty small.

    early breakfast

    The location was superb for exploring, we hit the beach and nearby boat tours, which the teens loved. The room was spacious and allowed our family to feel comfortable. The staff were inviting and accommodating, making our stay quite pleasant.

    My kids wished breakfast started earlier than 8am.

    The room was light and spacious, with a big comfy bed that felt great after a long day. The bathroom was a bit small, and while the plumbing was old, it worked just fine. The nice view made it a cozy spot to relax. Breakfast was also a highlight, served on a lovely terrace. Overall, a comfortable experience despite the bathroom size.

    I had a wonderful stay at Portofino, where the staff provided an exemplary level of service, truly embodying Italian hospitality. The room was spacious, charming, and cleaned daily, maintaining high ceilings that added to the ambiance. Breakfast featured fresh pastries and a delightful meat plate, served on a terrace that was perfect for enjoying the morning sunshine. Its central location made it easy to access the seaside and nearby railway station in just a few minutes.

    Bathrooms are quite small.
