ホテル ドゥー ジェメリ(Hotel Due Gemelli)

It looks like it's been a while since the last review, which is a shame. The hotel must have had a massive revamp since some of the older reviews, as all the public spaces and the rooms were modern and clean. If you're looking for somewhere to sleep and have breakfast, this is the perfect place. My wife and I and our dog traveled from our home in Umbria to stay for a Friday and Saturday night. The room was very clean and spacious, and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was big enough with modern fittings and was also very clean. There is a well-proportioned balcony with one of the best sea views I've ever seen. There are several WiFi routers around the hotel, so you're never without a good signal. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful with advice. Breakfast (8 Euro pp) was great. No hot food but a wide choice, and the croissants were the best I've ever had - simply melted in your mouth. From a personal perspective, the only letdown is that being an early riser (5 to 6am), there is no way to get a coffee until breakfast at 7:30. And if you're one for late nights with a drink, then be aware that the bar shuts at 8pm. We got some snacks and beers and were perfectly happy sitting on our balcony and watching the boats on the water as the sun went down. Location-wise, it's not perfect, but it suited us fine. There is a shuttle bus (2.50 each way to Riomagiore) that runs fairly regularly, but be warned, it gets pretty crowded at times, sometimes to the point of people being unable to get on. I would have no hesitation in recommending Due Gremelli to anyone.

The views are lovely from the room but the hotel is advertised as having a restaurant, which it did not. A buffet breakfast was on offer at additional cost, but otherwise the receptionist advised us to walk to a restauarnt nearby. As it happened, we decided to drive to one of the Cinque Terre ports for dinner, but overall we were disappointed. The photographs portray the hotel in a very good light, but we do not think this was good value for money at all.

This hotel is in a perfect location visit Cinque Terre with a view that is amazing! With great and helpful staff to go along with it , you can get breakfast for an extra charge but it’s well worth it , it has private parking and it stands 100 meters from the bus stop to Riomaggiore . The rooms are spacious with upgrades done to the bathroom and most important they are very clean. It’s within walking distance to a very good restaurant ( IL Giardino da Nico) And one more time the view !!!

So peaceful and quiet after visiting the Cinque Terre towns. Beautiful views, wonderful breakfast for a small cost, and comfortable rooms. I would stay here again for sure, would rent a car next time but we were able to get around using shuttles and trains to see the area.

Great stay!!! The staff were extremely helpful - upon checking in they asked what our plans were and gave us train/shuttle schedules. The breakfast was the best we had in all of Italy, the croissants tasted like someone just pulled them out of the oven. Definitely get room with a view. I do suggest having a car if you plan on staying here, it is out of the way a little bit but that's what we enjoyed. After all the crowds during the day it was really nice to sit in our room and have a glass of wine. We were there during the train strike so we did drive to Manarola - no prob, I think 12 min. The next we drove to Montorosso, which I would suggest Not doing. It was 45 min of hairpin turns. Take the shuttle/trains, so much easier.

Rooms are on several floors without an elevator, so be prepared to climb. Our bottom floor room leaked from the bathroom window, so we were moved to a higher floor for the second night. Breakfasts were sp****, but location offered beautiful views from the decks. Short walk to lovely restaurant was a nice surprise. Nice staff, which should get better with experience.

This is a nice hotel but a little way outside Riomaggiore. It was quiet while we were there, breakfast was limited and no restaurant in the evening. Room was big with a very large shared balcony with 2 other rooms overlooking the sea. Staff were very friendly.

The staff was really helpful and friendly. The view is so beautiful.

Check in was easy and the host was so hospitable and kind! Would definitely stay here again!
