World Class Hotel
Portovenere was a pleasant surprise from start to finish. The city is charming, but we wouldn't have enjoyed it as much if we hadn't stayed at the Grand Hotel Portovenere. The hotel is magnificent, the breakfast is great, the bar-restaurant is delicious and has great views. But the best thing was the kindness of its people: at reception, in the restaurant, the luggage service and cleaning staff. All outstanding. We immensely enjoyed the Beach Club affiliated with the hotel and the yacht with which we went for a ride during the sunset. Congratulations sincerely for having a world class hotel.
