Spectacular views, a generous size bedroom with opulent furnishings and a beautiful bathroom - it was all beautiful. The white peacocks were on the roof of the restaurant peering in through the windows on two of the mornings we had breakfast and the private garden was like something out of Secret Garden. Just ONE fault - we could hear EVERYTHING... More

Our stay at this hotel was like living a fairy tale. There are a few buildings and we were upstairs in the one where the restaurant is located. Our room was very large. We had an entry area with a beautiful old large armoire that led into a sitting room with a non-working fireplace and a TV. The large bedroom... More

This hotel was a highlight of our honeymoon! Beautiful job renovating the hotel- fabulous rooms, great breakfast, great outdoor space to have a drink & overlook the bay. Short walk to town... Sentries levante has to be the best little city on cinque Terre-- quiet but close, away from the hoards of tourists, great restaurants, very scenic. Staff was very... More

We stayed at Grand Hotel Dei Castelli in October 2012. The location if Sestri Levante is great if you want to visit Cinque Terre and Portofino. The place is amazing. Old castle with huge rooms furnished very nicely. The staff is very helpful in recommending restaurants and places to see. They are located on the top of a mountain and... More

Beautiful, unique setting on top of the hill. Public areas look like a private villa. We were with a group, and people experienced a wide variety of room accomodations. Our looked out over a garden and had a sitting area off of the bedroom (I think only a few rooms have this). Staff was helpful and pleasant. Very well cared... More

Let me start by saying I was part of a group tour and this hotel and costs were part of of the tour so I can not judge by way of value. I stayed in the section separate from the main building (old castle) near the restaurant. Our room overlooked the water, was clean, comfortable, and quite. Free WIFI that... More

My husband and I booked our holiday through Railbookers, UK. What a beautiful hotel. Firstly, the staff are absolutely wonderful. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Although they speak English we are great believers in attempting the native language. Our effort was greeted with warmth and appreciation! We stayed in room 208 in the old Castle. It was spacious...

It is an utterly unique chateau like hotel, set high on a small promontory and surrounded by parkland. You can walk in its own private park, check out the wireless tower where Marconi made his first transmissions and take an elevator down to your private pool in the Mediterranean. From the breakfast room you look north across a harbor and... More

Sestri Levante is on the rail line, just north of Cinque Terre. CT is a popular tourist area, and although Sestri Levante lays outside of that technically, it is a short, manageable rail ride from the villages. It is, in other words, an excellent base for exploring Cinque Terre and for exploring it own merits. Sestri Levante is a charming... More
