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”! 😉🏊♂️
