With panoramic views of the Gulf of Tigullio, Grand Hotel Bristol offers a large outdoor pool and a wellness centre. Free WiFi is available throughout the property.

We loved this hotel! The staff were amazing and couldn't do enough for you. The welcome drink and focaccia with pesto on the terrace was a lovely touch as was the free shuttle into town. The views from the restaurant / terrace and from our room were breath taking. The spa was a great addition for a rainy morning activity - good facilities and immaculately clean. We visited out of season so sadly the roof top restaurant was closed but will hopefully be back next summer!

The staff was so welcoming and helpful. They took care of dinner reservations, gave great recommendations and helped out with any questions we had. The Villa was beautiful with the backyard and the amazing pool area and the breakfast was exceptional with fresh cut fruit and juice everyday. Camogli as a town is very charming and beautiful, with a great Harbour area and beautiful coastline. Definitely recommend Villa Rosmarino and we will be back!

    The location was great right by the port. The air conditioning was really appreciated in the 33 degeee weather. A cleverly designed space which fit in a tiny kitchen. It was quite like a caravan except that it had a good sized bathroom.

    Absolutely stunning and so secluded. What a gorgeous part of the world. The whole experience felt special and I can't wait to go back. The rooms are so lovely and bathrooms surprisingly modern considering the building is some 800 years old. The staff are also so lovely and friendly
