Hotel Della Baia

Friendly hotel in Le Grazie Nice hotel with friendly staff in Le Grazie, with local charm, less tourists and local bus services every 30 minutes to Portovenere and La Spezia.

My husband, daughter and I have spent a long weekend here and it has been absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Well technically, we haven’t left yet but I wanted to write this review whilst I can! We wanted to stay somewhere that was traditionally Italian. Where do we start? Firstly, let’s start with check in, we were greeted by two lovely ladies and to our surprise we could check in early as our room was ready, a welcomed benefit as our daughter was due her nap! The room: we personally thought it was lovely, a very traditional Italian room with a fantastic balcony over looking Le Grazie, the shower was brilliant and so powerful! The staff: wonderful! They couldn’t do enough for you, from Giovanni being the most fantastic waiter so professional yet welcoming. A special mention to the twins - Gloria and Laura who worked tirelessly and who really impressed us with their English. The food: oh. My. Word!!!! - DELICIOUS!!!! We have eaten at a variety of establishments and this is up there - you have to try for yourself!! The pool was so peaceful and tranquil and hardly ever busy. The area: Le Grazie is a quiet place which was perfect for us we enjoyed walking round in the morning. For anyone wanting an abundance of eateries and bars this may not be the place for you, however, Portoverne is a short bus ride away and the hotel sell the tickets for this (€2 each way) Most importantly the thing we won’t forget about Hotel della Baia are the little details (which mean the most): - My husband is gluten free and at every moment the effort was made to accommodate this from making tweaks to the menus to every morning coming down and there is a basket full of gluten free options on our table. - To always smiling and making an effort with our little girl - the highchair always being ready or colouring being placed on the table - With my bread I like to have olive oil and balsamic and the staff always remembered and had this on our table Overall, regardless if you are a family or not you need to visit Hotel della Baia! Thank you all!

Disappointed with our 5 day stay at this hotel. Unfortunately the promenade outside is under construction which will be fabulous when finished but atm there are views of diggers and workers. The restaurant serves mainly fish with very few alternatives for non fish eaters. Room 309 is very small with twin beds and the view out of the window is non existent. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable and supportive. There is not much to do in La Grazie ( Only a few restaurants most of which were closed in April) You need to get a bus to Porto Venere as it’s too far to walk and the road has no pavements. There is a bus every half hour but these are often full. If you want peace and quiet , by the sea, this is for you… if you want a variety of bars and eateries to choose from this is not for you

This hotel is amazing. It's location is on the shore of the beautiful bay or Le Grazie overlooking all the boats and the village and mountains beyond. The checkin was welcoming and straightforward. The staff are pleasant and professinonal. The room, though small, had a lovely private ground floor terrace with furniture, overlooking the sea, which is only across the road. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom, again small, but had everything required. There was a TV, Tea/Coffee and a fridge. The air con was very effective. Breakfast, which is served in the restaurant, is waiter service and consisted of plenty of fruit, cakes, pastries, ham/chese and delicious coffees made by an excellent Barista. In the evenings dinner is served by the sea, across the road. Outside, the pool is excellent and is of a good size with an ambient temperature. The hotel was busy, so sun loungers were in short supply. Much of the time, there is a pool attendant/life guard in attendance. You can walk around the bay to shops and restaurants. There is no private parking available, so you park on the road and also a disused football pitch. Download the EasyPark app to pay €11.50 for 72 hours parking. We will definately revisit this hotel in the future. Thank you and well done to all staff.
