A stunning unique property with an equally outstanding view.
Piero the bar tender was great and is certainly an authority on the region and its wines.
My meal at the restaurant overlooking the bay was superb and the service excellent. I will certainly be visiting again and highly recommend this hotel.
Very nice location with views overlooking the town on one side and the sea on the other. It was convenient having the car close to our room. We swam in the private beach, it was nice being away from everyone. The elevator makes getting to town/beach fast and easy. I didn’t realize the private beach however is an added cost. It is €45 per person, per day. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

We recently stayed at Grand Hotel Dei Castelli in Sestri Levante, and overall, it was a delightful experience. The hotel boasts spacious and elegant rooms, and the breakfast buffet was satisfactory.
However, there were a couple of unexpected surprises. First, despite what Hotels.com indicated, there was no pool on the hotel premises. Instead, guests had to pay €30 per person to use a private natural lagoon located some distance away. Unfortunately, this information wasn’t disclosed during the booking process, which left us feeling disappointed. Luckily the public beaches are AMAZING!
Despite this, the hotel itself is charming, and the staff was friendly. If you’re looking for a charming getaway in Sestri Levante, Grand Hotel Dei Castelli is worth considering. Just be aware of the additional cost for the “pool”! 😉🏊♂️
Good accommodation, but unfortunately, the description doesn’t mention that the beach is forty five euro Person extra…. And bed was quite hard…. Most beautiful surrounding and the breakfast was really good with amazing view.
So quite expensive for this kind of facility
A really fantastic 4 night stay - gorgeous location , amazing service from very helpful staff and beautiful food . Great local walks too . Highly recommended.

No pool! Beach facilities need some adjustment. They are charging their patrons who stay at facility $45 per person to use the beach after trying to find it was not an easy feat.
Aldo no WiFi at all in our room.

Beautiful views, location and building but standard of room below what you would expect. Very old fashioned and lacking modern touches and qualities. Best thing about it is it’s bar.

We paid 30 Euros per person to have access to a pool very decadent that should be included in the price - place is amazing and service and staff is not at all at the level required for this property - also rooms are extremely old and smell mold actually - really dissapomting

Det står at det er basseng. Det er det ikke! Kun en beach club som koster 40 EUR. Betjeningen var litt snerpete, men hyggelige. Savnet balkong evt mulighet til å sitte ute. Savnet mulighet til å lage kaffe på rommet. Bra beliggenhet og utsikt.
Superbe hôtel, immense chambre, pas un bruit. Excellent petit déjeuner dans une superbe salle avec vue sur toute la baie. Idéalement situé, centre-ville à moins de 10 mns à pied
Schönes Schlosshotel an der ligurischen Küste. Das Hotel liegt majestätisch über dem Ort Sestri Levante. Es führt ein Lift im Berg direkt zum Strand. Gratis Parkplatz, schönes großes Zimmer mit Balkon.
Das Hotel ist einrichtungstechnisch nicht mehr ganz am Puls der Zeit. Das Frühstück ist wie immer in Italien leider nicht vergleichbar mit Mitteleuropa.
Empfang an der Rezeption gut.
Es gibt schöne Terrassen leider ohne jeglichen Sevice.
Frühstück absolut schlecht. Wenig Auswahl , schlechte Qualität der Fruchtsäfte. Eier etc. müssen extra bezahlt werden ab 10 Euro.
Angebot insgesamt ungenügend für den Preis.
Verzorgd en netjes. Zeer ruime kamer en erg grote badkamer.
Unieke locatie en gebouwen.
Vriendelijk personeel.
Individueel regelbare airco en goede WiFi.
Kamers werden dagelijks zeer grondig gepoetst. Alle handdoeken werden telkens ververst, dat was wat overbodig.
Het “zwembad” was een tegenvaller. In de rotsen uitgekapt, met zeewater wat er instroomt. Algen op de grond en glibberige trappen om in te gaan. Daarnaast veel vuil (alleen/mos) in het water. En dat voor 25€ per dag per persoon dat je er gaat. Heeft ons 75€ (3 personen) gekost om na een uur weer te vertrekken.
C’est un endroit tout simplement incroyable sur les hauteurs de Sestri Levante. Un fantastique château avec des chambres spacieuses et une très belle vue. Le petit déjeuner est correct même si le service est assez basique. Le bémol : la literie est beaucoup trop ferme.
