Info
Summary of reviewsHotel San Terenzo, nestled in the heart of the Bay of Poets, is highly praised for its exceptional beachfront location. The hotel offers stunning views of the Gulf of Poets, particularly from its sea-facing rooms and balconies, which enhance the overall seaside experience. Situated just steps away from the charming towns of San Terenzo and Lerici, guests can enjoy leisurely walks along the waterfront promenade and easy access to the beach, located just 10 meters away.
Guests appreciate the friendly and professional staff, who are described as exceptionally welcoming and attentive. The reception team, including the management, receives commendations for their kindness and efficiency, elevating the overall guest experience. The hotel's cleanliness is another highlight with rooms and bathrooms consistently noted for their spotless condition.
The breakfast at Hotel San Terenzo, while generally well-received, offers a variety of sweet and savory options, catering to diverse dietary needs, including gluten-free choices. The scenic location adds to the appeal, allowing guests to enjoy their morning meal by the water's edge with breathtaking views. However, there is room for improvement in terms of variety and the freshness of the offerings.
Accommodations are generally spacious and comfortable with sea view rooms being particularly favored for their stunning vistas and proximity to the water. Some street-facing rooms, however, were noted to be noisier and less desirable. Despite occasional issues with bathroom cleanliness and room cleaning, guests find their stays to be comfortable overall.
The hotel's private beach with its clear waters and fine sand, is a significant asset. Guests value the complimentary beach service, which includes umbrellas and sun loungers on the sun terrace. The well-maintained beach and attentive staff enhance the coastal experience, making it a delightful part of their stay.
Free parking is available, though it is located at a distance of 700 meters to 1 kilometer away, making it somewhat inconvenient, particularly for those with health concerns. Despite these challenges, the provision of free parking is appreciated in a popular resort area where parking is scarce.
While some guests feel that the hotel's four-star rating doesn't quite match their expectations with a few areas needing improvement such as room amenities and breakfast variety, the prime seaside location, friendly staff and clean accommodations make Hotel San Terenzo a highly recommendable choice for travelers seeking a picturesque and serene coastal retreat.

Guest Reviews
Location
The hotel's direct sea-facing rooms, some with balconies, provide a priceless view of the Gulf of Poets, enhancing the overall seaside experience. This perfect placement also allows for great walks along the waterfront promenade and effortless access to the beach, just 10 meters away.
Visitors commend the friendly staff and the excellent, abundant breakfast served daily. The combination of a beautiful seaside location with superb views, especially at sunset and the hotel’s strategic proximity to local attractions, makes Hotel San Terenzo a highly recommendable choice. Though a bit pricey, the location and amenities offer a truly sublime, idyllic retreat right by the sea.
Breakfast
The location adds a special charm, as breakfast can be enjoyed by the water's edge with stunning views of the gulf, which adds to the overall experience. Guests frequently highlighted the exceptional and dreamy setting, enhancing their morning meals.
Positive mentions were given to the high-quality coffee and eggs with the breakfast staff being kind and attentive. Despite these accolades, some guests noted areas for improvement. A few reviews mentioned that the breakfast could be rather mediocre with occasional issues like limited selection, especially if arriving late and some items being out of stock. A recurring theme was the need for more fresh products and variety, particularly for sweet breakfast items, which some found disappointing.
Overall, while there is room for improvement, the breakfast at Hotel San Terenzo is generally well-received with its standout location and variety of options making it a notable start to the day.
Rooms
Guests noted that the rooms are generally large and well laid-out with comfortable beds and powerful showers adding to the pleasant stay. While cleanliness is generally satisfactory, some reviewers pointed out occasional issues, particularly with bathroom cleaning.
Rooms facing the street were mentioned as being noisier and a room without a sea view was described as being at sidewalk level and somewhat disappointing for a 4-star establishment. Despite these few drawbacks, the majority of guests found their accommodations to be very comfortable and the sea view to be a highlight of their stay.
Cleanliness
Located right by the sea, the rooms with a sea view are particularly favored, offering a serene and quiet environment with balconies just a few meters above the water. The cleanliness extends to the bathrooms as well with guests appreciating the meticulous maintenance. However, a clean bathroom was mentioned to be without a window, rendering it not entirely spotless in one instance. Additionally, there was a report of a room being infested with ants, which seems to be an isolated incident.
While generally praised for cleanliness, some guests believe that the cleanliness of the room and carpets could be more impeccable to match its 4-star rating. Despite such minor critiques, the consistent mention of a clean and comfortable stay underscores the hotel's commitment to maintaining high cleanliness standards, contributing to its excellent reputation alongside its prime seaside location.

A standout feature is the complimentary beach service, including umbrellas and sun loungers available on the sun terrace. This service is highly valued by guests, making the hotel's private beach an asset that significantly enhances its appeal. The charming atmosphere and attentive staff further elevate the beach experience, ensuring guests are well cared for as they enjoy the beautiful coastal scenery.
Parking
