This is a great location from which to explore Cinque Terre. Levanto is the first town north of Cinque Terra and we could drive in, drop our bags, and park. It was reasonable, had free (off-site) parking, air-conditioning, free internet, and was a 10 minute walk from the train station where we hopped on tone of the frequent trains to... more

We stayed in Hotel Garden for one week and were very satisfied with all criteria. We had booked the suite in the 5th floor and enjoyed the view from our terrace very much (sea view). The personnel was at all times very friendly and helpful! There is a hotel parking lot about 10 minutes footwalk from the hotel free of... more

Our family of four stayed at Hotel Garden for three nights in late May. But, before I talk about our stay at Hotel Garden, let me just say something about the town of Levanto. When we planned our trip to the Italian Riviera, we struggled with our decision about where to stay. Rick Steves did not exactly rave about Levanto... more

We stayed at the Hotel Garden for 2 nights, what can I say. The family that run the Hotel are so helpful, everything so clean and breakfast fantastic, my 14 year old son just kept helping himself ( he loves all italian food!!). Such a nice little town, with such easy access to Cinque Terre. Would love to go back... more

We stayed here for 4 nights in mid May and only have the highest praise for this hotel. The room was a larger than normal size and was extremely comfortable with every conceivable modern convenience including a nice balcony overlooking the main park. In my view this hotel is well above its 3 star rating. All of the staff from... more

My wife and I stayed 4 days in May — our second visit to Levanto. This town is an ideal base to visit the Cinqueterre and the Portofino peninsular by train, boat and on foot. The hotel provides a car park about 10 minutes walk away. A decent hotel, nothing fancy, well situated. Pleasant staff. Construction noise — drilling, hammering... more

We have just returned from a short stay at Hotel Garden in Levanto which was our base whilst walking the Cinque Terre. Hotel Garden was everything I hoped it would be - our room had a balcony that overlooked the sea and the hills plus it was clean and spacious. The only thing we could fault was the shower. Hot... more

Knew that we had made a good choice, when Davide proved to be so helpful via email when I was making enquiries and booking. We are so glad we stayed in Levanto which is beautiful & picturesque, easy to get to and not quite as tourist heavy as the other villages, it just feels a bit more relaxed. We were... more

My girlfiend and I stayed at this hotel for eight nights in early June 2008 and we loved it. The hotel is perfectly positioned in the middle of town, just a few yards from the beach. There are restaurants very close by including one directly beneath it. The hotel is very clean and well decorated - everything feels new. The... more
