Cinque Terre Holidays Reviews

Beds are good, nice location, nice old house. There was a kitchen but no gas, maybe because I was the last one in the season. A watercooker would be nice to make tea.

4 of us only stayed here for one night because we wanted to hike the trail. Unfortunately, we didn't read the news that there was a flood in two of the five villages and all the trails were closed. We got there and was informed by the staff. The place was a bit old but it was clean, and hot water was provided. There was no wifi so we went to the nearest bar to use the internet. The only thing that I don't like about was that we need to check in before 5pm, and the village had nothing much to do.

Good location. You have to go up a hill but you will at basically any location here. Absolutely beautiful town! The room was kind of dirty and the bathroom really moldy and gross but the staff was nice and the place had a lot of character. I would recommend staying there!

Loved it! Great location, beautiful town! Coming back,

My friend and I were really looking forward to visiting cinque Terre and staying at this hostel but unfortunately we were unable to make it there due to the rockslide and flooding so now trains or buses could take us. Unfortunately we had to cancel our reservations but the people at the hostel were very understanding and refunded us our money. We hope to try and visit cinque Terre another time and when we do we will try and stay at this hostel!

Stayed in Riomaggiore in a flat up a steep flight of stairs. Was a bit of a trek and potentially dangerous in the dark as some stairs were broken. The flat was nice but the shower head was broken (as in not attached) so you basically showered with a hose. Other than that it was great and in the middle of the town.

Staff were friendly on arrival but this is not a hostel environment, more like a shared little apartment. Ok for $16 a night and a good location for the walk, there aren't really any good places to stay in Cinque Terre for the backpacker anyway so this place is as good as any.

My friends and I enjoyed staying at Cinque Terre Holidays. The location was absolutely amazing! It was RIGHT on the water!! The bathroom was small and there wasn't much hot water, but you can't beat the location! It was nice that you pay up front and drop off the key when you leave (which was perfect for us because we left at 4am!)

Having travelled extensively throughout the world over the last several years this hostel ranks as one of the worst. The rooms are like prison cells, some with no windows and no ventilation or natural light and they smell worst then a garden shed, there are too many beds in the room, with little or no storage space.I would expect this in a third world country for $2 a night not it magical Italy. The location is fantastic.

The staff wasn't friendly at all, he was kind of annoyed that we arrived there and didn't give us any information on the city, even when we asked. They have places all over the village, and though every room is kind of a small house with their own kitchen and bathroom, it's not a good setup if you want to meet people.

We stayed in an 8-bed dorm apartment. Really cute place, but probably could have done without the bunk in the kitchen / communal area to make it more comfortable - was a bit small for that much furniture and 8 people. Was great to be able to self-cater in such a small town. The stairs were a killer with luggage, but that's the Cinque Terre. Stella was fantastic and extremely accommodating of a last minute request. A lovely stay in a lovely part of the world.

Very friendly staff. This was more of an apartment than a hostel, which is typical of Cinque Terre. It's great because you will receive keys to your flat, and can come and go as you please. Comfortable, six beds, very clean (cleaner comes daily), kitchen and dining room table to socialize in. The only downfalls were the fridge (didn't work), and the shower (inconsistent water temps and pressure). Right across the street is a laundry facility, restaurants and grocery steps away.

Riomaggiore is probably the least favourite of the five Cinque Terre villages, and I recommend staying there only if there is nothing else available. The room was ok, though the bed was not especially comfortable and the staff fairly surly.

Close to train station and very clean. Receptionist was very helpful and let us leave our bags until 6pm. Dorm was overcrowded and there was no wifi and a few stairs. Otherwise a good hostel to see the cinque terre from.

Very beatyfull location, in the middle of the little town. Small but clean hostel (like a small appartment with kitchen) I was lucky that there were not to much people, otherwise it would be very crowdy.

We loved our stay at Cinque Terre Holidays. The office was a short walk from the train the staff was both friendly and helpful. They upgraded us to a private room and had one of the younger staff members show us to our room. It was about a 10 minute walk and up a lot of steps but SO WORTH IT. We had a room with a terrace and a sea view. The bathroom door was broken and the room door jam was falling apart and stuffed with tissues, but we still felt completely safe. It was well worth our money!

The rooms were quite a squeeze with lots of unnecessary furniture crammed in. there were some steep stairs to get up with heavy packs, but it had everything we needed and was a perfect stepping stone for the rest of the cinque terre

Great location on the marina. Would have liked the reception to be a bit more friendly and responsive but overall good experience.

No wifi, no lockers, and I found hairs in my bed. When I got there, the guy at the reception desk was playing piano and he seemed annoyed that I was interrupting him. The ladder to the top bunk was made of a flimsy plastic that seemed rather unsafe.

The hostel itself was quite good except that the shower was broken and there was no internet. The owner/manager seems nice enough, but perhaps doesn't understand that some comments may be taken as racist rather than humorous. Not in a hurry to stay there again.
