Top 10 Best Hotels in Portofino

There are beautiful places in Italy, and then there’s the Portofino coast—that small stretch of Liguria where the beauty seems straight out of a movie. Colorful villages cling to the hillsides, fishing boats share the sea with large yachts, and small coves appear among pine-covered cliffs as if someone had designed them. But the magic of this coast doesn’t end in Portofino. From Santa Margherita Ligure to Paraggi, Rapallo, and Camogli, the Riviera offers some of Italy’s most alluring hotels: historic palaces, beachfront villas, monasteries converted into hotels, and intimate retreats where true luxury lies as much in the setting as in the way you experience it.
