Cinque Terre Italy

Has anyone ever stayed in the Albergo Luna di Marzo in Riomaggiore/Volastra? I need to find a hotel for my boss and I want to place her somewhere nice. Any reviews would be greatly appreciated!!!

The nicest place in the CT is the Porta Roca in Monterosso. However, I like the Grand Hotel Portovenere in that lovely village.

Volastra is not one of the Cinque Terre, and there is another Cinque Terre village between Volastra and Riomaggiore.

Have a look at this map:

The Cinque Terre are the five villages that are directly on the water.

5 villages of the Cinque Terre
North to South

Monterosso
Vernazza
Corniglia
Manarola
Riomaggiore

La Spezia is south and a popular place to drop your car and "train in" to the CT towns. Lavanto is north and also a popular place to drop the car and catch the train.

In 4 trips to the CT region, my favorite hotel is Hotel Villa Steno in the town of Monterosso. I have never stayed at the Porta Roca but I have looked inside and it also looks quite nice (albeit a little more pricey). I do not think you could go wrong with either hotel
