I LOVE Portovenere. This was my second time there - I visited Cinque Terre in 2010, and arrived in Portovenere on the ferry. After only an hour, I fell in love. When my husband and I planned our trip this year, I knew I wanted to share this special place with him. He now loves it as much as I do. It has all the beauty, culture, and history of Cinque Terre, with more open waterfront and many fewer tourists. It is relaxed and out-of-the-way and inviting. We had three wonderful dinners, all featuring local seafood. All the restaurants have outdoor seating and many are dog-friendly. The Monday morning market was a fun surprise. It is easy to get to Cinque Terre on the ferry, and to La Spezia by bus or taxi, and from there you can catch the train to Cinque Terre and other sites up and down the coast. There is plenty to see and do in town - the church and castle, the beach, the wharf, the shops, classes in making your own pesto, and much more we didn't have time to discover. I would go back tomorrow if I could!

My initial review was mistakenly for a previous B.Com property in Rumaggiore. Apologies. Staying in too many B.Coms ! All in a sequence.
La Calata was the best we stayed in all trip. Really excellent. Friendly caring host. Met us in the street to help get the right door. Fantastic place. Lovely views. We’d stay again - any day. The facilities and comfort couldn’t be beaten.

It's in a beautiful setting but, to visit Cinque Terre, you'd be better off somewhere like Levanto or in one of the villages inland, which are very quiet but lovely (and a quarter of the cost!) Even in late September and some awful weather, Porto Venere is packed with tourists and people from cruise ships so it's harder to enjoy it.

The Grand Hotel did not disappoint.
The Grand Hotel did not disappoint. From the moment you walk in you feel genuinely welcomed, wonderful staff, nothing is ever a problem. The view from our room was delightful, looking across the water to the beautiful old buildings of Portovenere. The breakfast was incredible, so many choices. The terrace was a lovely area to spend time for a drink as you take in some sun and the view or for dinner under the stars. We stayed 4 days and I was not ready to leave, highly recommend.

Place is a nice resort with views over looking island and La Spezia bay. Except at the departure port for Cinque Terre boat, there are not too much crowd.
Nice ruins of a castle overlooking the sea, old Church and a Grotto.
Fine restaurant & bars.
Easy to park if you pay
You can relax there after hectic / epic day visit in the Cinque Terre!
Nice beach on the Island

This is my favourite new region in Italy!!
This is my favourite new region in Italy!! Captivating views around each corner of the coastline, breathtaking rock formations and boats zooming to and from. Soothing to sit amongst the coastal life. The villages felt very authentic and less touristic than other places that are this beautiful. Can’t wait to go back :)
The location is within the walls of the old city. This means that there are many steps to go up to the hotel. We lobed the idea of being within the walls. The people there were extremely helpful, coming to get us from the taxi with an electric wagon to take our luggage, (to and from the room). They gave us good tips for restaurants and overall made us feel very welcome. The room was nice, without a window with a view, but who cares when you go out of the room early in the morning and come back late at night.
We loved the B&B L'Ancora and cannot give the location and Silvano high enough praise. It's the prime spot in Portovenere (which we found to be the least touristy and most beautiful town near cinque terre). Silvano was an amazing host bringing us a delightful breakfast of fresh focaccia, croissants, Ligurian sweet bread, cappuccinos, and fresh squeezed orange juice each morning. The room was very clean and freshened up everyday. We already miss the view from our room! Definitely recommend!
Everything: location, balcony, wide bed, clean bathroom. We were extremely happy for the electric drying rack - after a hard hiking day it is a must when its raining outside.
We arrived to Portovenere without a hotel booking and after we booked this place sitting in a bench in the harbour, the owner contacted us in a few minutes and sent directions to find the right place. Very good communication.
I really reccomend this place.
Great small room but everything I needed & breakfast served every day, Awesome location right in the centre of the old part of Portovenere, many shops and restaurants, ferry to a most of the ports along the cinque terre, great steep walk to Riomaggiore about 8 miles in total couple of stop off points and beautiful scenery, loads to
Explore churches, fort, island, good spot for swimming if sea is calm,
Very beautiful room in a castle overlooking Portovenere harbour. The room itself was basic, clean and comfortable but it's the charm of climbing up through narrow alleyways with spectacular views along the way to the room, superb! A previous review said the owners were cute but that is an understatement, they are truly adorable!!
The whole apartment was very clean and tidy, with spacious rooms just right for a family of 4. We also liked the location: pedestrian proximity to everything really in Portovenere; beautiful terrace overlooking the island of Palmaria and the always changing colours of the gulf. The hosts were kind and very responsive.
This is our 3rd visit.
Lovely hotel with a perfect location on the harbour. It has a lovely pool with plenty of seating around it.
The staff are friendly and helpful.
The hotel is pristine.
Lots of cafes and restaurants within a few minutes walk serving good food.
Good bus route, especially for Porto Venere.
Excellent location, right in the center of Porto Venere. Modern clean room and bathroom.
We really appreciated being accompanied from the parking to the hotel and, after the check-out, back to the parking.
Lovely breakfast, Thank you for the vegan option, appreciated it!
The hotel’s location and view were amazing. Silvano secured us a dinner reservation even though late in the afternoon. Restaurant just across the street and had a wonderful dinner there - Portivene -breakfast delivered each morning to our room also excellent- Magical!
The hotel had a gorgeous view of the town. Martina was a wonderful host and helped us with dinner recommendations and booking a taxi for our departure. Breakfast on the patio was lovely. Rooms were comfortable and clean. I would highly recommend this little gem.
Everything was superlative! The panoramic view from the hotel is stunningly beautiful. The room and the bathroom are very clean, comfortable and the air conditioning worked perfectly. A wonderful place to spend your stay in Portovenere. We will definitely be back!
Friendly staff will be part of a goulandris our. Figure thrips hotel was Josef as a convenient location for there planned activities and able o accommodate a larger go. Staff was more tha friendly and helpful. I had a lovely room.
Location is great. 15-20 mins promenade walk along the sea to the main touristic point.
Was not expecting that hotel is so close to the beach. Also, we had a fantastic terrace, so entire family enjoyed it, especially our dog :)
I like the location it was very near to everything (super market, boat port and around the hotel is some restaurants. The staff is also nice and friendly, they answer immediately to all your inquiries.
+Location

The property is the best by far in all of Cinque Terre. It’s location is unique in Portovenere, but the ferries make it very accessible. The room was lovely, the restaurant is incredible.
The location is beautiful. It’s so peaceful and quiet and a nice getaway from the business of Portovenere. The bed was very comfortable and bathroom was renovated and very nice.
