Hello... My boyfriend and I will be going through Cinque Terre for 2 nights during a trip to Italy and we're looking for a good hotel around $100 - $150 (US). I've heard La Spezia has more selection, but ideally we'd like to stay in Cinque Terre itself. Any suggestions? Thank you!

We loved staying at the Marina Piccola (in Manarola) in October last year.

In May I stayed at the Hotel Punta Mesco in Monterosso. It is just up the street from the beach in the new town, and consistantly get good reviews ( check out trip advisor for more reviews). The hotel was very clean, included breakfast and the owner speaks English.

We stayed at La Torretta in Manarola last year and absolutely loved it. See their reviews on Tripadvisor.

I agree with the recommendation for Hotel Marina Piccola, especially if you can get a room with a view of the water (#7 is my favorite).

Another lovely little place, and all rooms have magnificent sea views, is http://www.arpaiu.com/english.html. They don't serve breakfast but you can have breakfast in one of the cafes closeby on the harbor (down many steps or down via a curved ramp).
