Excellent stay at Hotel Approdo
Hotel Approdo was probably the cleanest place we stayed in our entire Italy trip. The staff are very courteous and prompt with all requests. We stayed for 2 nights. The room had a great balcony with an incredible view. We walked from the hotel to Portofino which took a couple hours at a fairly leisurely pace. We also walked to the hotel from the train station which was only about a 10-15 minute walk. It was quiet and lovely. Highly recommend.

Lovely hotel, staff and location
Very nice hotel, located between Santa margherita and Rapallo, out of the busy areas. Both are 25 min walk or there is a bus stop directly in front of the hotel. Lovely staff, very clean rooms, good air-conditioning and nice bar with patio for drinks. We had a very nice stay!

Great stay!
Very friendly staff, clean room and good breakfast! Only downside is that you have to walk right next to the road with cars driving pretty fast on the way to santa Margherita which is about 10 minutes away. But everything about the hotel itself was amazing!

As one of the more affordable hotels on the Riviera, we wdere surprised to find that the premises, staff, and location were excellent! I have to commend the staff above all, as they were incredibly friendly, informative, and helpful throughout our stay. It was great!

This is an excellent small hotel . Very clean and right on the bus route for Santa Margherita and Rapallo.
I had a balcony room which was great and gave a stunning view. Breakfast is extra but very nice.
The staff were very helpful , but special mention to Lisa who was outstanding in her help and knowledge .
Something for people to be aware of is the steep driveway .. if you struggle to walk up hills Jen it may be a bit of a challenge for you - but , all things considered it is an excellent small hotel

A Treasure
Hotel L'Approdo was one of the best places we have ever stayed. The staff is beyond friendly and helpful! Even before we got there there they responded to our questions timely and thoroughly. The rooms are comfortable and most certainly clean. The views from the rooms and the patio in front are lovely. And they make GREAT coffee! Would go back for sure and tell others to stay.

Good hotel
Very comortabel and claen hotel. Lovely staff - very helpful
Only issue is hotel is close to a busy road and between two small towns. So 20 min to 30 mins walk - much on busy road. Buses are very not regular.

This charming hotel has rooms with balconies providing very beautiful sea and surrounding views. Staff is friendly, helpful and client focus. Only pet peeve is 15-20 minute walk (on a hill) from hotel to town which can be challenging on hot days or if limited mobility). Bus service is an option as it stops in front of hotel, but be patient as not always on time. Decent breakfast also available and also couple of restaurants near by for dinner. If you want alternative option to overpriced hotels in region, this is a very good option. Hotel also has limited parking. I highly recommend.

I will remember this hotel forever. It is at the top of a small totally doable hill in San Michele. You walk ten mins down the hill to the beach with the option for beach clubs or public beach. Buy a waterproof cell phone lanyard like the locals so you can float all day without worrying about pick-pickets (not that I saw a hint of any). Also bring water shoes or tevas, beaches are a tad rocky but fine. There are quaint cafes and casual dining spots all in San Michele in this area. you are a 25 minute walk to Rapallo in one direction which is bustling with shopping/dining/beaches and Santa Margherita in the other direction also busting with shopping/dining/beaches. the bus stop is EXACTLY at this hotel (so amazing) and can also bring you so you don' have to walk, we wanted to walk a lot there and take the bus home. You can buy bus tickets for 2 euro cash each at the hotel so you don't have to worry about fumbling around with payment on a public bus (I worry lol). The front desk was amazing and 24 hour! They took such excellent care of us and really made us feel so welcome and like we had personalized care. Everyone remembers you and looks out for you with genuine care. It was WONDERFUL. We stayed in the garden terrace room and the terrace was enormous no one can believe how much space we had. This hotel is on a hill so if you cannot do hills its not for you but if you can walk up a hill (I'm not an athlete or a hill person) I would highly recommend it! 10/10, 5 Stars, LOVED

Tillgång till parkering och så ligger hotell med vacker utsikt. 10-15 min promenad ner till restaurangerna och stranden.
Bra promenad väg ända ut till Portofino.
God frukost.
