Summary: We had a very pleasant stay at Hotel San Desiderio. Filippo and the team were exceptionally friendly, welcoming and helpful. As we were unable to arrive until around 11 p.m., they kindly stayed up and waited for us, which we really appreciated. We also received a parking permit for our car, allowing us to park free of charge in the nearby streets. This made our stay much easier and was a very helpful service. The hotel has a convenient location within walking distance of the centre of Rapallo and the train station. Communication was excellent, and we felt very well taken care of throughout our stay. A charming hotel with genuine hospitality that we would gladly recommend to others visiting Rapallo and Liguria. Thank you for making us feel so welcome!

Summary: Our stay at the San Desiderio in Rapallo was excellent. The hotel is wonderfully situated, right in the centre of town, within walking distance of everything including trains and buses. The hotel itself was spotless, well-equipped, and far beyond what is to be expected of a 2-star establishment. Excellent and imaginative breakfast. The welcome we received was warm, and the owners are incredibly helpful.

Summary: Quiet location yet central, only five minutes walk from sea front and ten minutes from station. Room was a little on small side but very clean and good showers. Very attentive service from the proprietor who spoke good english. Breakfast was acceptable/above average. Quite good value. I would go again.

Summary: While the room was quite small as was the bathroom, the hotel was conveniently located within a 10 minute walk of the train station, the seaside promenade, and the "old town" pedestrian area. The included breakfast was great and was served as a buffet with ham, salami, cheese, yogurt, fresh fruit, a selection of juices as well as fresh croissants, focaccia, fruit tart and cold cereal. The coffee was freshly brewed and even hot chocolate was available. But what made this hotel extra special was Marco, one of the propietors, who treated us as if we were his special guests. He trained at a 5 star hotel and it showed. Not only is he fluent in several languages, but he provided every service he could to make our stay pleasurable. It was like having a professional concierge at a budget hotel.

Summary: We cannot say enough good things about Marco, Filippo, and the hotel. Great location, just a short jaunt from the train station and the seaside promenade. Marco was great with recommending things to do and places to eat out, their hospitality was great! Will definitely stay there again.
