Fabulous place to stay!
What a great find in a great location! It is an old Fort that has been made into a small 6 unit hotel. The exterior is great and the staff makes your experience more enjoyable. You can take a slow stroll the 5 minutes down the road to the local town for food and fun. They also rent bikes so you take a ride down the road. You will not be sorry staying in this hotel!!! Not to mention breakfast was included too and they gave us a few beers from Expedia!!!

Eco friendly hotel in an old fortification.
The hotel is located in an old fortification. The rooms are modern, have air conditioning, and are very quiet. There is no view however. The featured photo was not taken from the hotel property, But the location is very nice. Restaurants in Montemarcello are a 5 min walk away. The check in was a bit hard as the desk wasn't staffed and I received an email with a phone number. The hotel also called me but this was while I was driving down A1 and couldn't answer. So I called on arrival and got instructions on accessing the room. The breakfast, included in the rate, was very tasty. The roads in the area are very narrow and windy but the view is gorgeous.

Don't judge a book by its cover
This hotel is unique in that it is built on the grounds of an old WI fortification. When looking at it from the outside it doesn't seem like much. However, the rooms are exceptional. They look brand new and even have USB chargers built into the electrical outlets. The bedding is the most comfortable we've stayed in on this trip. There's also a very nice little village a stones throw from the hotel with friendly people. The one negative for us was the distance from Cinque Terre. It's a hike to get there. But, if that isn't your destination then it's a wonderful little hotel.

Beware of checkin times
At 1846 an email was sent saying that check-in closes at 1930, this information would have helped if they advised of this sooner. Unfortunately, with no internet access along our way to this hotel, an email 45 minutes before they left for the evening was not suffice, a phone call informing us would have been appreciated. We arrived at the hotel just after the reception closed, no access or instructions were left for checkin, the number written on the door rang to an unattended number. A hotel that does not offer outside hour checkin is unacceptable, it's not like we arrived late in the evening. When you are traveling, it's not always possible to arrive in the small window of opportunity of 1400-1930. This experience left me paying for a room that I couldn't access, and I had to sleep in the car. Shame, it looked like a nice place to stay.

Halfway to heaven!
We had a little difficulty finding it, but it was lovely when we did. The room was quite large, the breakfast was very good and the entire hotel was meticulously kept. We were directed to a restaurant nearby, Pescarino?, where we had the finest meal we have ever had. The area was between the mountains and the sea - we would definetely stay again.

Highly recommended. Great service and views
Large room. If had good Hot water for the shower. Walter was very kind and helpful. He spoke English very well and was able to recommend restaurants. Loved the breakfast selection, especially the waffle maker and cappuccino/coffee machine. The view of the ocean was incredible as we were up on a mountain. We only stayed one night as we were driving toward Pisa (2hrs) then toward Florence I would highly recommend this place. If you can, go to La Soezia and take the train to cinque Terra (north). The train was on strike for a day so we couldn't do it but it looks incredible

This BandB is located at an Italian National Historic Site in Montemarcello,Italy, at the top of a mountain. Walter was very helpful and spoke good English. The room was big and comfortable.

Deluso dal servizio ed assistenza al cliente
Situato in bella posizione. La gestione ed il servizio sono pessimi. Le cassette di sicurezza esterne dove prendere le chiavi se si arriva alla sera si trovano in un luogo non illuminato, o perlomeno io non sono riuscito a trovare l'interruttore. In una struttura molto frequentata da stranieri il personale fa fatica a comunicare in inglese. Difficoltà nel conoscere il costo della camera nonostante la prenotazione con Hotels. La tassa di soggiorno mi è stata comunicata tardivamente dopo aver pagato il conto. E' l'unico posto dove mi sono sentito dire che questa tassa va pagata in contanti e non si può mettere in fattura. In ogni altra struttura non ho mai avuto problemi. La rete wifi non funziona da parecchio e non sono in grado di dire quando sarà ripristinata. Al centralino non sempre rispondono. Ottima colazione. Eccellente pulizia. Locali rustici ma arredati con gusto.

Wiederholter Aufenthalt an diesem besonderen Ort
Kleines Hotel mit nur 6 Zimmern in einer alten Weltkriegsfestung auf einem Berg an der Küste. Nebenan ist ein Parkplatz mit Aussichtspunkt über das Mittelmeer. Schöne Zimmr mit netten Assisoires, Minikühlschrank und extra Sitzgelegenheiten. Alle Zimmer haben einen Aussenzugang. Das kleine hübsche Dorf Montemarcello liegt wenige hundert Meter vom Hotel entfernt. Hier finden sich 2 Restaurants, ein Café und ein kleiner Kaufmannladen. Zum Meer muss man gut zu Fuß sein oder mit dem Auto den Berg runterfahren. Zum nächsten Supermarkt sind es wenige Kilometer. Ein Fahrzeug sollte man hier zur Verfügung haben. Das Personal ist superfreundlich und hilfsbereit.

séjour atypique dans un endroit surprenant. Le personnel est adorable et le système de clé permet un accès à n'importe qu'elle heure. Il suffit juste de les appeler et on vous donne un code, parfait. Notre seul regret concerne le WIFI, nous étions dans la chambre no 6 et n'avions pas de réseau, nous étions obligés de nous rendre vers la réception qui n'est ouverte que le matin pour les petits-déjeuners. Les petits-déjeuners sont copieux (salé et sucré, rapport qualité prix sans aucune contestation.)

Location con potenziale ma non tenuta a dovere
Bella l’idea di ristrutturare un ex fortino militare, ma non altrettanto quello di lasciare i clienti incustoditi per tutto il periodo notturno, e lo si scopre una volta arrivati. Servizio internet presente solo nella sala colazione, e non è un problemone... se non vi ritrovare ad avere bisogno di chiamare con il cellulare. Nella zona del fortino NON prende segnale nessun operatore telefonico, se considerate che da sera al mattino potete solo chiamare un numero di telefono di un altro hotel in caso di bisogno...non è il massimo. Per il resto belle camere ben arredate, un po’ meno i bagni...che necessitano di un aggiornamento. Parcheggio all’esterno della struttura e nessun cancello che isoli parcheggio e hotel, il fortino è accessibile a chiunque a qualsiasi orario. Anche se avete solo la concessione per gli alloggi...un pulizia in più ai giardini intorno farebbe solo che bene all’immagine del posto e da incentivo per ritornare.
