We spent 4 nights here in Sept 2009. I agree with a previous post that the rooms and reception area could use a little facelift. They are not horrible, but I think just a bit dated. The bathrooms have been updated and had very nice products, slippers and bath robes available. We were pleasantly surprised at how quiet the room... more

When planning this trip, we originally thought we would stay in Portofino, but after reading about what other travellers had to say about Santa Margherita Ligure, we decided to book at the Grand Hotel Miramare and we couldn't be happier that we did! The hotel is in an excellent location within walking distance to restaurants, the train station and right... more

My husband and I loved this hotel. The location can't be beat. The rooms are nice but could use an update which it looks like the hotel is in the process of doing. The bathrooms have already been remodeled and they are gorgeous. The lobby could also use a face lift. Otherwise, we were extremely pleased with the hotel staff,... more

My husband and I really liked this hotel. We don't usually spend this kind of money for a hotel, but this was a special trip so we thought we would splurge. The concierge staff was very accommodating, giving us the information we needed. For the size hotel it was, I was surprised that they got to know our names after... more

An excellent hotel, check into a room with a sea view, the gardens are not very interesting. I agree that the local restaurants are no more than adequate and because most of their custom is from tourists they don't try very hard. The best meals I have had there have been the buffets put on by the hotel on the... more

Great staff, very professional in manner. The hotel is old which is reflected in the rooms and the decorating. But, there is free corded internet access in the rooms which reflects a bit of a modern touch. We had a balcony that faced the sea, which we enjoyed. The bathroom was spacious and the room was good sized for Europe.... more

I loved this hotel. It seemed like what a grand hotel would have been 50 years ago--elegant, understated, with great staff and a quiet atmosphere. The breakfasts were great. The location was perfect--close enough to walk to Portofino or into town yet away from the hustle in the center of town. April is not high season so the rates were... more

Great hotel, lovely rooms and service. The beach (stones) across the road (be careful crossing the road) is nice and the water is cool and refreshing. Pool is fantastic, restaurant is great. However very very expensive as is the whole region. more

My partner and I stayed at the Grand Hotel Miramare for the last two weeks in June and the hotel surpassed our expectations. From the outset the staff were attentive, friendly and professional. We paid extra for a sea view room and despite concerns regarding the road that runs at the front of the hotel we were glad we did.... more
