Hotel Vis a Vis was absolutely beautiful, the view was spectacular from every angle , the outdoor snack bar to the restaurant to our room was a wow factor , the staff are very friendly and go out of their way to accommodate your every need. I highly recommend and will definitely be coming back .

Room was a little small for the price we’d paid. My husband and I had to squeeze around one another (room 308). The views of bay of silence were lovely and the bed was comfy. Good selection for the breakfast and nice to be able to sit outside al fresco for breakfast with lovely views. The inside restaurant was also beautiful and had amazing views. The pool area was great, pool staff very attentive. Again lovely views from the pool area. There’s a side gate from the pool area down to the town which is a shortcut 5-7 min walk. You cannot take their beach towels to the beach, you have to pay €5 per day for special towels, which we felt was poor considering how much we had paid for the room. Drinks prices a little high, a Mocktail was €15 and a bottle of beer €9. Slightly disappointing on the checkout we asked if we could use their shuttle to go to the train station with our luggage, they never told us there was a fee for this service, so we’d assumed it was complimentary (as a lot of hotels offer a free shuttle). However it was €15 euros to go 5 mins down the road and the driver didn’t have any change, so we ended up paying €20. So we felt rather ripped off with that experience. Overall a nice hotel, but don’t feel it was worth what we paid

Very nice hotel with great front desk reception team and great views

We had the best week at Vis a Vis for our honeymoon. We cannot recommend it highly enough! Incredible location with views breathtaking views that you can’t even imagine. The staff were so friendly and went above and beyond, especially the Restaurant Olimpo staff. We highly recommend booking a room with a balcony or terrace and ordering the room service breakfast. Very accessible to private and public beaches, a very quick walk. The hotel can help you reserve chairs at a beach club or you can go to the public I beach if you want. We can’t wait to go back!

Exceptional staff, could not have been friendlier or more professional. Not a detail missed - even offering to make a breakfast box as I was catching a 7am train into C5 and thus missing the (spectacular) breakfast buffet. Room was lovely, everything worked and their designer clearly thought every detail through. Veranda was a real treat and gave a wonderful sense of space (all rooms have great views). Rooftop bar was amazing to watch the sunset over an aperitif/light food. “Destination” restaurant on the 4th floor has gourmet food and set menus if you’re looking for something really special - other options are available (although I might just stay on the rooftop!). Management clearly has inculcated the staff with an exceptional sense of service and care - you can sense if from the amazing front desk staff, restaurant service, ground keepers, house maids, towel service at the pool. Thrilled to have made this choice for access to, and to soak in, the Portofino coast and C5 area.

The location and beauty of Vis a Vis is 10/10. Sestri is such a charming oittle fishing town and the hotel sits atop the hill perfectly overlooking the water. Very clean space however the pool vacuum is alwahs running during the day making it a bit difficult to enjoy that space with the cord running across the pool. Breakfast from the panoramic restaurant was also a great start to the day. We didn't have a chance to have dinner there though - next time for sure.

Great property! Lovely staff! Perfect location

Beautiful hotel, family friendly, great staff amazing location

Beautiful view. Concier

The restaurant staff for breakfast service were extremely kind and helpful, Lara was so accommodating and hard working and the morning manager was also very gracious and welcoming! We had an exceptional stay! Front desk staff were also wonderful! Thank you

Great location. Needs updating of facilities and infrastructure. Was built in the 60’s and it shows. Great staff and customer service.

Hotel Vis-a-Vis is in a lovely location overlooking and walkable to Sestre Levante and its beaches. Hotel staff are helpful and courteous. The pool area is lovely. One downside is no irons are available (even to borrow from the front desk), which is something I have never experienced in a hotel. The hotel could also consider changing room keys to modern key cards versus clunky room keys, which are difficult to carry around, and making on-site parking free (versus EUR 15/night).

Great location, staff and amenities

Excellent

Excellent all around! Great hotel, great service and very enjoyable. Very friendly team! Loved the hotel, lived Sestri Levante

We loved our stay at Hotel Vis a Vis. The views from this hotel are spectacular, the rooms were a bit small but perfectly fine for what we needed and the staff were amazing, very attentive. Sestri is such a beautiful town and I’d highly recommend this hotel if you’re staying there. It’s walking distance to the town and beaches and makes it a convenient location. However if you’re more of a pool person the pool looks over sestri to portofino it was one of the best views from a hotel we’ve ever had. Thank you Hotel Vis a Vis for making our honeymoon so special!

You are the best. Congratulations

Just about everything was perfect. The Bar and Restaurants both had amazing views of the city and sea. The staff were wonderful and the bed was comfortable. The pillows could use some help all were beautiful on the bed but to sleep on they were way to big so it was hard to get to sleep. other than that everything else was great.

The location alone would make me want to come back. This hotel was in the middle of everything.

Staff was amazing and the property is well situated in the city, easily walkable to shops, the beach and everything else. The pool is heated and there are incredible views from the pool, roof deck and restaurant areas.
