Albergo Degli Amici

The older 58 year old woman with the black hair and glasses at the front desk seems to hate her job. The parking situation is extremely difficult. The hotel's explanation on how to reach parking is inadequate. It does not allow for successful reaching of location. When we had to leave the parking lot there was not an attendant and were initially unable to get out. Contacted the older woman at hotel who refused to help, hung up on me inspite of my unfailing politeness, and consequently refused to answer repeated calls. It took calling the police emergency number and driving around the parking lot in order to exit. While I can understand the hotel staff burn out at the end of the season they still should not leave guests stranded.

We have no idea the cost but it was a very good 2-night stay on our Rick Steves Tour. Super breakfast! Spacious room, comfortable bed, helpful staff and a bag of laundry washed, dried, folded and returned the next afternoon for 18 euros. Make sure to go to the garden above the top floor for a nice quiet view overlooking the town!

This hotel is a little gem in the middle of bustling Monterosso. Close to the action, decent sized rooms, helpful staff and a garden area with views to die for. My husband and I took a night time picture of the view which is now the Screen saver on both our phones as it sums up our experience on Holiday in Monterosso. The information provided by the hotel prior to arrival.was clear and succinct and they were happy to lend us a corkscrew for the evening while we enjoyed a bottle of wine in the upstairs garden. The included breakfast is substantial with both hot and cold options and barista made coffee. The only thing we can think of that could improve the hotel is if they put in a small swimming pool on one of the levels of the garden. Will definitely stay here again and highly recommend to anyone.

We stayed here for 4nights at the end of May 2024. The hotel is in a great location, just a few steps to the bars and restaurants of Monterosso, but on a side street out of the hustle and bustle. A pretty easy stroll from the train station with no hills/steps to climb. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was exactly as described, pretty basic, but very clean with everything you need. The air conditioning worked extremely well, and we paid for the upgrade to have a balcony which was a nice extra touch. I liked that the hotel toiletries were eco friendly, as wash bars rather than lots of plastic bottles, other hotels could learn from this! The breakfast was good, with lots of choice and a gluten free basket of bread/pastries for those that need it (just ask a member of staff). We were initially looking at booking an airbnb, but the prices were comparable to Hotel Amici which also included breakfast and probably the best thing about the hotel which was the terrace roof top garden. It was beautiful, incredibly well kept, full of lemon trees and jasmine and looked out over monterosso. Such a great place to relax and always quiet. The only downside to the hotel was the room was noisy. We could hear next door talking late at night and people talking outside the hotel (which to be fair is very few) and doors slamming. Everything is tiled, so obviously noise is amplified. But this was a small complaint and wouldn’t stop us from staying here again. Overall and really lovely little hotel, in a fantastic town. We had a wonderful holiday here.

Calm away from the noise and people. Excellent staff, breakfast, room, and above all, The terrace on the 4th floor. Relax stay awhile. Walk to dinner, beach, and trail. Shh don't TELL! Rooms have high ceiling, arrived by train, easy with a roller bag.

Beautiful rooftop garden with lovely views of Monterosso Al mare! Friendly staff and great location! The breakfast was great and we enjoyed our stay! The hotel also had good recommendations for activities and restaurants around the area! Would highly recommend!
