We have been to many hotels, but have never been so welcomed! We got a tour of the beautiful property, the room and genuinely felt they were excited to have us. We took advantage of the lovely outdoor seating areas, soaking in the ambience. The room was clean & comfortable, and met our needs. Breakfast was amazing! The best scrambled egss I have ever had. Would absolutely stay there again and recommend to others.

We had a lovely stay at the pensione. It’s in a great spot in Vernazza just off of all the tourist traffic and very close to the train station. The whole staff is a small group and very pleasant. They helped us make reservations for dinner and absolutely did not steer us wrong both in terms of restaurant, location and quality of meal. They were very helpful in accommodating the entire trip. The rooms are basic, but just what you need as a homebase to ramble around Cinque Terre. Vernazza clears of most of the tourists at night, so you can unwind and enjoy what you had imagined these little coastal towns to be

Nice place. Although the room is on the small side, a very friendly staff more than makes up for this. The proximity to the train station and an excellent breakfast make it a great choice.

Not fancy, but clean, and great service and staff.

Hotel is nice enough, great breakfast and customer service at front desk is WONDERFUL. Room did not have a bathroom attached and was not told this when booking....it was in the hall. When checking in was offered room with an attached bathroom for another 50eu per night. Wish I had known this in advance/upon booking. I wouldn't stay at a hotel w/o an attached bathroom so I paid more but should have been told this in advance and NOT at check in when you have no other options to cancel etc. Turned on the AC and lots of dust and dirt flew out of the unit onto the floor and our suitcase, so those need to be vacuumed out. The overall room was very small, but clean other than the AC issue. Need more room for suitcases/shelves etc. The hotel is not 5 star but still met our needs for breakfast, bed, and the staff were VERY NICE. We would stay again now that we know what we are getting. It's not fancy, but meets your needs.

This was a great place to stay with its ambience and both accessible and convenient location. Just a short walk to the village of Vernazza and harbor. And situated right between the hiking trails to either Corniglia or Manarosa. Also close to a laundromat. At the front desk, Evelyn was the most hospitable and helpful hostess that we have ever had. She went more than the extra mile to ensure that we had a lovely time not only in Vernazza but in the all of Cinque Terre. She was very warm and personable. We will be back!

A Vernazza gem

After our long trek into town from Monterosso, exhausted and looking for a nice stay, we were greeted warmly and efficiently by Eveline. She showed us around the hotel, perfectly located in the adorable town of Vernazza and even made a reservation for dinner for us which was ideal! The hotel lobby, dining area, and rooms are clean and have everything you need. The breakfast was very good as well, I highly recommend the Pensione Sorriso!
