Hotel Alba

A nice little place in a great location! Very easy walk to the beach, trains, and into town. Room is nice enough, only had a few complaints but they wouldn’t stop me from staying again are: -there was no actual mini fridge, just a wine fridge and nowhere to plug it in. -construction woke us up at 7:30 one day and cleaning woke us up at 8 another day. Cleaning would also unplug the wifi to vacuum. -first place we’ve been that you have to give the front desk your key when you leave each day? -smallest shower we’ve had on our month long trip. Overall it was good though, just small things!

Fine private hotel. Staff is welcome and relaxed. Breakfast is fine as well and they have nice terrace for lunch or dinner. Location is very close to train station. Parking is not that hard 200m from hotel on a small square.

The staff was extra helpful and kind. Helped us park and pay parking for our car. Above and beyond what most people would do

lovely hotel with amazing staff. You are really well looked after during your stay

The hotel is well located and close to everything in Lavagna and beaches. The train station is a short walk away. The staff is ultra attentive and very accommodating. The only downside, for those driving, is that the hotel has no parking and street parking is VERY limited.

Very accommodating and courteous staff. Would definitely stay again. Great experience.

The hotel is in the centre of Lavagna, close to the train station, beach, bars, restaurants and the market. (You can walk to Chiavari and back quite easily.) It is set back from the road away from traffic with a seating area in a front garden. The staff are very friendly and there is a bar service. The buffet breakfast was adequate but mainly catered to sweet-toothed Italians. The bathroom shower in our room was difficult to use but the bedroom was comfortable. The centre of Lavagna is lovely and Cinque Terre can easily be reached by rail changing at Sestri Levante. The only downside is the beach is on the other side of the railway line but you soon get used to this.

When we arrived at Hotel Alba they were not expecting us and told us that they did not take bookings through Hotels.com, even though Hotels.com had given us a Hotels.com Confermation number and a Hotel Confirmation number. We were told that they only take bookings through Expedia.com. Needless to say this was a freightening experience, late in the evening when we arrived. Eventually we were able to work things out and we were able to stay at this disappointing location.

We traveled for 10 days in three European countries and stayed in 10 different locations. This hotel was the only one that didn't have front desk staff that spoke any English. The gentleman was very accommodating and did his best to understand us. The hotel advertised free parking but the space was so small and tight quarters that the hotel owner/manager had to move several other cars to fit ours in. He then offered to do the parking for us which was great but would have been extremely inconvenient if he had needed to use it again before we left. The area the hotel is located in is not a typical tourist area but its in a typical Italian neighborhood and was great to walk around in and experience. We found a really good restaurant near by and several small stores...no English but we managed. The room itself was just ok, had nice windows that opened and the wifi worked. The shower however was unexceptable in my mind....I had to squeeze to get in because the opening was so small. When I dropped something I had to get out and reach in and retrieve it....no room to bend over. I understand that the European showers are much smaller than the American one abut this one was a real challenge.the free breakfast was the worst one on our entire trip, consisted of of some bread/crackers, jelly and coffee. There was a restaurant on site but we didn't use it. Plus side was the pleasant gentleman at the front desk, down side language, breakfast and shower.

Frábær þjónusta og fránært starfsfólk

Hotel decoroso, non comodo parcheggiare ma in bassa stagione non e' un problema. Per essere un 3 stelle credo che il rapporto qualita' prezzo non sia ideale.

Immediatamente cordiali, dall'arrivo fino alla partenza. Sempre disponibili all'ascolto ed a risolvere i piccoli problemi dell'ultimo istante. Il ristorante, poi, è davvero una sorpresa. La CHEF è bravissima con una selezione di piatti invitanti e ben preparati. La signora in sala altrettanto, sempre con un sorriso e con cortesia. Ottima la colazione, dolce e salato.

L'établissement est bien situé tout près de la gare ferroviaire et de l'embarcadère des bateaux; c'est pratique pour la visite des Cinque Terre et les autres sites de la côte ligurienne; Portofino, Portovenere, Gênes; nous n'avons pas eu besoin d'utiliser notre voiture. Mais surtout, nous avons particulièrement apprécié la gentillesse de tout le personnel de l'hôtel et son incroyable disponibilité pour satisfaire tous nos désirs. Si nous revenons dans la région, nous retournerons dans cet hôtel.

Bravissimi tutti, davvero il top

Ho soggiornato all'hotel Alba solo una notte ma mi sarei fermato più che volentieri qualche giorno in più. Il personale è accogliente e disponibile. La camera e la colazione perfetta. da provare anche il ristorante con ampia scelta di piatti di qualità preparati al momento. Consigliatissimo. Tornerò ancora appena ne avrò la possibilità.

Ottimo in tutto.

Mysigt familjärt hotell!

Devo dire che di alberghi ne frequento almeno 3/4 a settimana è se potessi indicare una votazione corretta 5 stelle non basterebbero servirebbe almeno il doppio. Albergo comodissimo alla stazione 5 minuti a piedi, posteggio auto a pagamento raggiungibile con navetta dell’albergo. Ma il jolly è giocato tutto sul servizio del personale, ragazzi usciti da scuole alberghiere con la voglia di mettere in pratica ciò che hanno imparato. Questo servizio vi posso garantire che neanche nei 5stelle più blasonati mi è stato offerto.

Di questi tempi con le diverse regole, sono riusciti a mantenere i vari servizi come la colazione o la navetta per la stazione di Chiavari. Per questo tanto di capello Per la stanza era pulita , peccato non c’era un frigo ma una cantina per il vino che non siamo riusciti ad attaccare. Molto carino e piacevole il giardino dove si cena e si fa colazione.

Personale molto gentile camera un po’ piccola ma accogliente Buona la colazione nel pergolato di kiwi ed ottima la posizione
