Stayed at Albergo al Carugio for three nights during Easter 2013. Were warmly welcomed by Andrea, the manager. Room was ready even though we were early. Andrea is very helpful and knowledgeable about the various routes -he made all the difference in making our stay a successful one in terms of hiking experiences. Clean and quiet room, good shower. It... More

We were able to walk to the hotel through the tunnels so the blockage had cleared by the time we were there. The rooms are small but clean. Our shower had an LED light in it that changed colors with water temp. The bathroom is tiny and shower water gets everywhere. Andrea gave us wonderful suggestions for food around town.... More

After a long travel day my sister and I were finally glad to arrive at al Carugio. I had been in contact with Adrea, the owner, who was very thorough and helpful with instructions about how to find the hotel. Which wasn't tough at all. It was a decent walk from the train station, nothing too long. There are closer... More

The whole booking process, check-in, and check-out all worked seamlessly (which isn't always the case in boutique hotels in Italy). We loved the host who shared with us tips for restaurants, trails, etc. On arrival, we were given one of the larger rooms because he noticed we walked in with 2 really large bags and would need space to keep...

My friend and I stayed at Albergo al Carugio for two nights late May 2013. This hotel is at the end of the main road in the old part of Monterosso- just a couple of minute walk to the ocean. The room was clean and nice and we even had a private patio which backed up to the neighboring lemon... More

My husband and I stayed here for 5 nights in April 2013. The rooms are simple and kept very clean. The best part of staying here is dealing with the owner, Andrea. After booking the room, I received an email from him within hours with a map of the area, directions from the train station and his mobile number in... More

We stayed in this hotel for 2 nights from 21March 2013. We were taken by surprised on arrival that we could not WALK to the hotel as advertised. The only thorough way to the hotel during normal times is to go through a tunnel which was blocked by falling stones the night before we arrived. ....we were so told. Without... More

I was in Monterosso in October 2012 and found Andrea's place online. Monterosso seems to be the least hilly as far as where lodging is. The town is small so nothing is really far away. From the center of town Albergo al Carugio can't be more than 100 yards up a mildly sloped street that you would call Broadway in... More

This is a cute little place in Monterosso, off the main drag. What made it memorable was the manager, Andrea, who could not have been more pleasant(even before we arrived) and helpful. We stayed one night and he recommended restaurants, travel between towns etc. The hotel itself is very,very basic, and I thought a bit overpriced for the accommodation (though... More
