Guest Reviews

• Fanny (10/5): Juste parfait - Le lieu est magique, le personnel fantastique Vue imprenable et le resto excellent Déconnexion totale Ras
• Antoine (10/5): Parfait - Tout, deuxième séjour, toujours aussi parfait Rien
• Pierre (9/5): Un enchantement - Le calme, la vue, la gentillesse, la nourriture et la bâtisse
• Giuseppina (10/5): -
• Kathrin (10/5): -
• Gabriella (9/5): -
• Rudi (10/5): Unique. - A tranquil oasis high up in a hilltop village with spectacular views. Very romantic.
• Alireza (10/5): - We had an unplanned doctor visit in the morning of our check-in day that delayed everything planned in our day. I received a call from Angela around 6 pm saying that we were late for our check in and she'd leave notes for us. She reminded me that there is a roughly 100 meters of upheel walk and stairs. Then I realized my mother-in-law joined our trip last minutes and we had totally forgotten about this part. I asked Angela if there was a wheelchair I could use for my mother-in-law. She paused and said "we've got a problem" as the path is not suitable for elderly with mobility issues. She was so generous to stay until 7:30 pm for us so she can run the monorail for my mother-in-law. The monorail is for luggages only but can accomodate two people if needed. Angela was so kind and we were so grateful for her staying late evening to help us with the situation. My wife and I would go back to their place (no parents this time, lol). The place is located on top of the village and is very peaceful.
• Niccolò (10/5): -
• Tjaart (9/5): - The beautiful remote hamlet location! Without a car, getting a taxi to or from Levanto was sometimes difficult with only two taxi drivers servicing the town.
• Chantal (10/5): Ein verborgenes Juwel auf dem Berg: Oase mit Herz und atemberaubender Aussicht. - Dieses Hotel ist ein wahres Juwel, dessen liebevolle Führung man sofort spürt, auch wenn die Betreiber eine angenehme professionelle Distanz wahren. Es ist die ideale Unterkunft für alle, die eine kleine, gehobene Oase abseits des Massentourismus suchen. Das Personal ist außergewöhnlich hilfsbereit und gibt immer wertvolle Tipps und Empfehlungen. Die Aussicht von der Terrasse ist einmalig und lädt zum Verweilen ein. Man sollte sich jedoch bewusst sein, dass es sich hier um einen Ort der Ruhe handelt; es gibt keinen Pool und keine Partyszene. Dies ist genau das, was den Ort so besonders macht – es ist ein Ort zum Entspannen. Das Frühstück ist jeden Tag ein Highlight, denn es wird hochwertig und individuell für jeden Gast zubereitet. Das Hoteleigene Restaurant ist auch für externe Besucher geöffnet und ebenfalls sehr gut! Die Anreise ist sehr unkompliziert. Da man nicht direkt mit dem Auto zum Hoteleingang fahren kann, gibt es eine praktische Monorailbahn, die das Gepäck zum Hotel transportiert. Das Hotel liegt abgeschieden in einem sehr kleinen Ort auf einem Berg mit perfekter Aussicht auf Levanto. Es ist der perfekte Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen, Mountainbike-Touren oder einfach, um die Ruhe und den Ausblick zu genießen. Dank der Parkkarte, die das Hotel für Levanto bereitstellt, kann man von dort aus die Cinque Terre perfekt mit dem Zug erkunden. Das ist definitiv die bessere Option, als die Orte mit dem Auto anzufahren. Alle Fragen zur Cinque Terre Karte werden im Hotel kompetent beantwortet, was die Reiseplanung erheblich erleichtert. Vielen lieben Dank! Klare Empfehlung Alles war super!
• Mikael (10/5): - Absolutely perfect, very close to the crowds of 5 Terre but so peaceful and quiet
• Adam (9/5): -
• Markus Bischoff (5/5): Der Preis schärft den Blick und man dürfte wesentlich mehr erwarten, insgesamt enttäuschend! - Empfangsdamen, Kellner am Abend, Frühstücksdame am Morgen sehr freundlich. Zimmer sehr hübsch, aber schlicht. Lage wunderschön im Hinterland - in der Ferne sieht man etwas Meer. Das Hotel ist über einen recht steilen Weg durch die kleine Ortschaft zu Fuß zu erreichen (150 bis 200 m ). Gepäck mitsamt der Gäste wird bei Anreise über eine kleine Standseilbahn / Lift nach oben transportiert. Lustiges Abenteuer. Zum La Sossta di Ottone: Keinerlei Komfort im Zimmer. Badezimmer kein Fenster, nur eine kleine Dachluke, welche sich nicht öffnen lies. Kaum Ablagemöglichkeiten, kleine Dusche, ein kleines Eckwaschbecken. Toilette und Bidet mit im kleinen Raum und nicht separat. Für Gepäck und Kleidungsstücke kein Schrank sondern nur 2 Regale und eine Kleiderstange mit Vorhang. Sehr enttäuschend das Abendessen, die Auswahl sowie die Qualität. Wir hatten an 6 Abenden geschmortes Kaninchen auf der Karte. Die Fischlasagne war unfassbar schlecht. Auch das Frühstücksangebot war vorbereitet mit trockenem Focaccia und hatte überhaupt keine Abwechslung. Wir wären gerne jeden Abend oben in unserem Hotel geblieben und hätten dort das Essen genossen, zwei Versuche für viel zu viel Geld waren es nicht wert, sodass wir dann jeden Abend mühevoll nach Levanto gefahren sind. Es hat aber auch niemanden interessiert während unserer 6 Tage Aufenthalt hat nie jemand gefragt ob es uns gut geht, ob wir zufrieden sind oder warum wir Abends nicht im Hotel bleiben. Zudem bietet das Hotel auch in der Außenanlage keinerlei Komfort. Pool oder dergleichen gibt es nicht. Auf einer kleinen Stufe neben dem Hotel, einer Art Terrasse standen 4 Liegestühle mit Unkraut umwuchert und ungepflegt. Auch die beiden Restaurant Terrassen bräuchten dringend einen Gärtner! Sehr schade, wir haben lange gezögert darüber zu berichten, aber nur so können die Eigentümer etwas verbessern. Natürlich, die Cinque Terre besucht man nur einmal aber als Hotelier und Gastronom mit 46 Jahren Berufserfahrung erwarte ich für einen Preis von 347,- Euro pro Nacht für das Zimmer mit einem einfachen Frühstück wesentlich mehr! 6 Tage für über 2000,- Euro war der Aufenthalt dort niemals wert. Tägliches mühsames Auf- und Absteigen durch den Ort, dass muss man sich erst einmal antun und dann diese Enttäuschung. Sehr schade und bei der Unterhaltung mit anderen Gästen wurde alles was ich wiedergegeben habe ebenfalls moniert!
• Ilse (9/5): -
• Mark (10/5): - A wonderful place to relax and take in the magnificent views of the beautiful Ligurian countryside. Perfectly situated high above the bustling coastal town of Levanto and the edge of the Cinque Terre, it's a great base to explore and sample the charms of the region. The food was excellent and our hosts most gracious.
• Giorgia (9/5): -
• Mary Anne (10/5): - This is truly an amazing property in the mountains above Levanto. How amazing to be above where birds fly and just hear them sing along with church bells. What a fun way to access this property via a monorail. This is a beautifully renovated farm house from way back with a touch of modern features. The whole staff was truly wonderful. I would highly recommend a stay here.
• Anna-Lisa (10/5): - Had a wonderful stay here - all perfect in every way . Thank you
• Demot (8/5): Lovely friendly staff, joy to come back to after the crowds of the Cinque Terre - Excellent breakfast and lovely Dinners, Served on a small terrace overlooking Levento Access for people with mobility problems. Funicular stops working at 18.00. There is a back path from a road running above the hotel where passengers can be dropped off.
• Heather (10/5): - Wonderful staff - very helpful in navigating and planning Cinque Terre! Beautiful property, gorgeous rooms - spacious and very comfortable. Only thing to note and plan for is it’s a 30 Euro cab to and from Monterosso.
• Daniel (10/5): - Excellent views, service and character
• Peter (9/5): Amazing - Amazing views. Well furnished. Fun to find Not for those who can’t walk steep hill, stairs. Last who serves breakfast could do with help.
• Kristen (8/5): Don’t bring luggage - The view is breathtaking, the staff was so nice and so helpful! The hike to the room was rough with a full size luggage.
• Tania (10/5): - Llegar al lugar es una experiencia unica. La vista, la comida y el servicio excelente.
• Min (7/5): Beautiful authentic peaceful retreat up in the hills away from busy Cinque Terre- loved La Sosta. - Loved location, tranquility, staff Disappointed with the food which we expected to be of a higher standard. If we’re being critical, it didn’t have the finesse we expected and became a bit repetitive after a few days.
• Barb (10/5): Magical and quiet - This was a magical place, we were so impressed by our beautiful room and the amazing grounds and the best food….
• Kristy (10/5): Exceptional experience in quintessential Italy! - We LOVED our stay Al La Sosta do Ottione iii… amazing medieval home renovated with simple elegance and so comfortable. My teen daughter said she didn’t want to leave! The inn is situated at the top of a hill by a small village, and the beautiful terrace overlooks the valley with other villages dotting the hillsides. We had been in Cinque Terre and this was truly a wonderful choice and the perfect Italy experience for our family! Angela is a lovely, kind host who made our wonderful stay complete!
• JACQUELINE (2/5): - Although the woman manager was lovely and tried everything to accommodate us, this place is not what it is marketed to be. Remote is an understatement. We arrived at 2:00 from a long train ride to no food, no town, no restaurant near by, no air conditioning because the one in our room didn’t work and no taxi service that didn’t offer a window of hours. We were prepaid and checked out after 2 hours and didn’t care to lose the money. It was unhealthy hot in the room and outside was no better. We were required to drag our suitcases up a long dirt path to get to a street where a taxi the manager located would take us to a town we didn’t want to go but then had to take a train back to the town we arrived in. The manager again was lovely about it, helped us haul our bags and did bring us some cheese and snacks from the kitchen as I explained we were starving having not been able to eat since our train left at 5:00 and did not have food service. She tried very hard, but there is nothing that could have kept us there. Old a quaint is fine. Just old isn’t.
• Pamela (10/5): - We found a gem in an incredible region. Highly reccomend.
• Davies (10/5): Exceptional - Very unique - the perfect hideaway with excellent good and facilities. The monorail was a fun but essential surprise
• Patrícia (9/5): Superb -
• Roshanak (10/5): - Heel net en schoon hotel. Erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel, eten was uitstekend. Omgeving is prachtig.
• Michele (10/5): Best of Cinque Terre - Amazing! The views, the customer service, and the food are top notch! I stayed here with my daughter for 2 nights. Located between Montresso and Levanto it added for more options. We loved to hike around the area and the cute little area the hotel is situated in is beyond charming and perfect!
• Armine (10/5): - My family and I absolutely loved staying at La Sosta. We kept saying how the hotel made our Cinque Terre experience. Please note that the hotel is up the hill so a distance away from restaurants, shopping etc. but for us that was the highlight of the place. We took a taxi (about 10min) down to either towns of Monterosso or Levanto and enjoyed the towns and then went back up to our hotel for a much needed getaway from the crowds and noise. The hotel rooms are spacious and clean, Angela the owner is wonderful and very helpful. All in all a wonderful place! Highly recommend!
• Brandon (10/5): - We cannot recommend this property highly enough. It is a stunning property located on the side of the mountain, and Angela could not be more kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and we learned a bit about its rich history that goes back to the Holy Roman empire. The food was amazing and this is just a short ride into Levonto as well as Cinque Terre. We will definitely plan on returning in the future.
• Marco (9/5): Superb -
• Robert (9/5): Superb -
• Ovidio (10/5): - Due to medical reasons I was not able to navigate the premise. Angela and staff were amazing in helping my wife and I to cope as well as find suitable accommodations for the remainder of our stay. Would highly recommend to everyone.
• Mette (10/5): Don’t miss this lovely place - This place is a hidden gem. We loved every minute of our stay at La Sosta. It is beautifully situated far up a mountain with a spectacular view to the sea. Everything from rooms to outdoor areas are tastefully decorated and everything feels very authentic. Food in the restaurant was lovely and we had great help planning our trip to see Cinque Terre. Service was helpful and pleasant. We have to go back!
• Lyat (9/5): Superb -
• Amanda (9/5): Away from everything - Beautiful boutique hotel. Unique location, peaceful and completely relaxing. Angela was extremely kind and welcoming. We had a minor problem that was resolved quickly, and we got a bottle of wine for the ‘inconvenience’, what a lovely and unexpected touch! Not much storage, but we were there for a short time, it didn’t matter.
• Malte (9/5): Superb - Very nice place on the top of Cinque Terre region. Definitely worth going there (rather for couples).
• Caroline (9/5): Superb -
• Verified traveler (10/5): - A little remote but very comfortable with great views. It’s a 4 minute walk uphill through the village or monorail ride to the hotel. Super clean rooms. Hospitable staff. Enjoyed our stay.
• lianne (10/5): Spectacular - Amazing perfect for a relaxing time, impeccable service and great food. Highly recommend this hotel.
• Dara (10/5): - Highly recommended! Really enjoyed our stay.
• Anina (10/5): - Viunderlige dage
• Jose (10/5): Amazing boutique hotel - Absolute amazing and unique place. The view from the restaurant is stunning, the rooms are spacious and extremely clean. It made our trip amazing and is a perfect choice if you don’t want all the noise from the cinque terre hotels.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Unbeatable views - We had a fabulous stay at La Sosta. Perched on the most beautiful hilltop with an excellent restaurant and unbeatable views. Our room was lovely, as were the staff. Would definitely recommend staying here away from the crowds in Cinque Terre but you’ll need a car.
