"Great place"

"Perfect location "

"The staff were lovely, kind, and knowledgeable. The apartment was clean and quiet with lots of natural light! This apartment didn’t have a view of the sea, but it did have a lovely terrace that you could see Riomaggiore from. And just steps away was the Wonderful shared terrace with a view of the sea!! I also must say the breakfast was incredible. Included things that might be typical for American breakfast (hardboiled eggs, cereal, fruit, yogurt, toast) as well as Italian breakfast (meats, cheeses, croissants, baked goods, Nutella) including freshly made cappuccinos etc. Loved this place and highly recommend! A couple things to note: the queen bed is two twins pushed together and they did kind of separate throughout the night which was a little awkward. Also, the elevators for getting up the hill are broken most the time and the option is to carry your bags up a steep hill for a long way. That said, you can get local Roberto to drive your luggage up and then the walk is actually not bad at all, pretty beautiful. Villa Argentina will send you Roberto‘s number in an email. €10 was a good price to not have to carry my luggage all the way up the hill! "

"Staff was super helpful and inviting. Loved this area. It was a cute town with great markets, shopping and friendly people. Right near train station and a couple of stops from cinque terra. Hotel was so beautiful and unique. Would love to go back. "

"This is nice European hotel by the beach. It has a little rooftop bar where everybody socializes one of the best breakfast buffets we've had in our whole trip to Italy park right in front of the hotel in the parking lot for the bay/pier. It's a 2 to 3 minute walk to the ferry that takes you north to portofino There's lots of nice shops, walking distance in downtown for Resturants provisions wine merchants. Old town of rapallo is very walkable and you'll enjoy the calm comfort more than the smaller towns. "

"Well located hotel with a wonderful ambiance and charm. "

"What a lovely hotel. We loved the atmosphere, the warm and friendly staff, their responsiveness to questions… everything about our stay was perfect. This was our favorite hotel on our entire trip in Italy. "

"We stayed 2 nights before our cruise and one night after. The personnel were very nice and helpful. The rooms were very clean. The hotel is next to the train station. 15 minute walk to the port and 20 minutes car ride to the airport. Walking distance to everthing. I would diffinently go back to this hotel if I were to go bake to Genoa."
