Grand Hotel Dei Castelli

The bar. The bar was excellent. Custom cocktails, great advice, and friendly service. And not badly priced for the experience. The bartender is a true asset to the hotel. The setting is incredible. Few hotels can bost anything like the setting. Breakfast is good if not especially varied. The decor is fitting, and all of the staff were friendly and welcoming, as well as being efficient. Loads of storage in the room. Room was also very large. The restaurant had a great menu and the wine pairings were excellent.

The views are spectacular. The service was great. Breakfast is exceptional with so many choices, At dinner I received my first amuse bouche. The star for us was the bar tender Pietro. He was engaging and knowledgeable. He answered questions from sightseeing to history. He also made an amazing Hugo spritz. The stunning view from the outside dining is a must experience. There is a park and trail behind the hotel. The trail leads to an amazing overvuewof the sea and the sea pool. All this in a romantic, elegant, old world setting.

Staff, location room facilities and cleanliness were all exceptional. This hotel is exceptional and the restaurant for dinner is a “Wow” factor bonus.

Beautiful property and very welcoming staff.

Good place in Sestri , but there are some better.
