Grand Hotel Portovenere Italy

Portovenere is a charming village that connects the spectacular Cinque Terre to the inspirational Gulf of the Poets. From Portovenere, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is easy to visit nearby attractions such as the Cinque Terre, Lerici, and Tuscany – by boat, car, or train. Grand Hotel Portovenere is located on the most panoramic point of Portovenere, overlooking the sea and the island of Palmaria, between Cinque Terre and the Gulf of Poets.

An XVI-century monastery turned into a hotel after a careful renovation with special attention to maintaining the original architectural features and understated elegance. This hotel is the only 5-star property in Cinque Terre. With 47 rooms featuring breathtaking views over the town and the island of Palmaria. Not a room with a bad view and all of them reflecting the pastel colors of the surrounding landscape through a modern and sophisticated design. At Palmaria Restaurant, dishes are a mix of tradition and modern creativity. Regional recipes are reviewed with a contemporary twist. The coolest place, day and night, is the outdoor terrace with breathtaking views over the town, the castle, and the sea.

The property sits right in front of the harbor, where ferry boats run daily to the Cinque Terre villages. Each village has a train station making travel between the towns quick and easy. You can reach La Spezia Train Station either with the hotel's transfer service or by car. This hotel offers you parking right in the center of Portovenere for a stress-free vacation and an easy way to explore the Italian Riviera!
