We stayed at the Splendido as a couple, as part of a friends' birthday celebration as a group of 30 people.

We stay at the small hotel in the Portofino harbor. Customer service was Excellent, rooms very cute and romantic and all experience PERFECT. I highly recommend the morning buffet with the view to harbor and square. They have about 200 home made preserves and jams and jelly. I need to go back, because I don't try them all ;) Amazing... More
