We'd been to Alassio the previous year - so we knew where and where not to stay to be close to the shopping area, the beach, and to enjoy an overall nice atmosphere. I therefore decided to book this hotel because we wanted a view of the sea this time around and a bigger room. We were not disappointed. We took one of the corner rooms with terrace on the 5th floor - and it had such a beautfiul view over the sea - and equally looking out from the side terrace at the promenade below. The two adjoining rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated (our teenage daughter was in the adjoining room) and the bathroom (with shower and jacuzzi bath) was both luxurious and spacious. We could not have wished for better. The beach is right in front of the hotel and there is a nice terrace (closed whilst we were there) and steps down to the sandy beach with beautiful and chic looking sunbeds (with towels provided). Our teenage daughter was in paradise there !

We were a little disappointed with the breakfast - especially as this is a four star. The fruit juices seemed watered down - and the overall choice of bread/croissants/jam was not particularly appetising. The bread, rolls and danoiserie did not seem fresh that morning. A shame because the staff were very helpful and quick. And of course who could resist the cappuccino ! The only other very minor point was that the curtain pole in our bedroom - hanging over our bed - fell on my head.when a gust of wind came into our room off our fantastic terrace balcony. Whilst it was hugely entertaining for my wife and daughter, it did hurt a little. It could have been worse, and time prevented us from mentioning it to Reception when we left a short while afterwards. Not a big deal though.

The staff were excellent- at reception and for dining. We had the half board- good variety and really good quality. It was worth it. I was surprised to see so many bad and indifferent reviews. I think those who wrote them have personal problems. Especially Sinai at reception and Munir in the dining room and the maitre D - whose name I did not know- were really lovely. . Mireille in the spa gave an excellent massage.Only one lift is problematical but one could get over it. Breakfast al fresco overlooking the sea was fabulous. It was useful having a gym although it was small.

The booking of the beach umbrellas and loungers was weird- we were told that many were booked and were not available so they stuck us at the far end. As it turned out those nearer the beach restaurant, and closer to the sea, were left unoccupied the whole day. Those in charge were completely inflexible about changing. It made no sense. I doubt people were prepared to pay 50 euros to book and then not pitch.

Friendly staff, good location, nice breakfast

We went there because of the spa and fitness. The facilities are small, without windows and somehow claustrophobic. On the top of that they ask 25 EUR/p entry fee

The location was incredible and the view was amazing. The breakfast each morning was very good and the bar was excellent for a pre or post dinner drink.

The shower and bathroom overall were small and somewhat inconvenient. They had only one elevator which was very small so there was a lot of waiting.

Lovely room with great view and easy access to beach. Sun beds very well spread out. Great beach restaurant for lunch. Staff were all charming. Good breakfast. Perfect place for à relaxing weekend.

No coffee machine in room. Only a kettle and PAPER cups! Terrible hair dryer that was not fit for purpose. Smoke alarm right above the bed had a bright green light that flashed all night. Hopeless water pressure in the shower.

Nice place, nice staff.

Charging guests for access to the beach was unexpected with info shared too late to change mind. The discount for guests versus walk-up beach-goers was a mere 10 euros, which is offensive seeing as we are already paying well for the accommodation.

Cool location-just few steps from the sea. Large room. Breakfast area - it is ouside with an amazing sea view Beach arrangement. Allways clean, discret music, resonable distance between beds. Stylish comoon areas. High quality Spa cosmetics offered in the room. Frendly staff.

A bit outdated. Maybe should be a good ideea to change some room furniture pieces (including entrance room doors which are realy horribles; apparently looks nice, but during night we can see the light from the corridor..). Too expensive in respect of the general aspect of everything.

Location Private beach Room Meals

They no longer have the playroom pictured in booking. Used to free water, at least on first night Breakfast could vary a bit more from day to day. Pool and spa is extra.

Excellent service and friendly staff. Very helpful and accommodating (once they let me sneak in our very little dog for breakfast). Location of hotel perfect.

In the bathroom very little room to place stuff. Unfortunately breakfast was changed to indoor which does not allow dogs (don't get me wrong i understand that) so we were forced to have breakfast outside of the hotel as our dog does not like to stay alone in the hotel room.

Perfect location. Old style seaside / resort hotel in charming and beautiful Alassio. With own beach and beach restaurant. Nice staff. Clean and elegant hotel.
