Great location, but getting to room is challange.

The room was wonderful, getting to the room was like an escape room game, code for garage, code for garage, find certain parking spots, find building, enter code, find correct staircase, enter code, find room, enter code...prize is the key. Once settled, great location, great room.

If you can get over the “treasure hunt” you have to do to check in, the place is very well located and a great stay.

Location is good. No place to park. 4 floes up in a building with no normal sized elevator. Just a lift. Have to use 3 different code boxes to get in to building, the apartment area and then the room. No place for seniors or handicapped. Rooms are recently renovated and nice.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your recent stay at our hotel. We are glad to hear that you found our location to be good and that you enjoyed our recently renovated rooms.We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the lack of parking, as well as the need to use multiple code boxes to access the building, apartment area, and room. We understand that this may be challenging for some guests, especially seniors or those with disabilities. However, we would like to clarify that our property is located in a historic building, and unfortunately, we do not have control over the building's design or infrastructure, including the elevator. As far as parking is concerned, we have repeatedly invited you to book a parking space, but you have never done so.Nonetheless, we appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration as we continue to improve our guests' experiences. However, We believe we are highly capable as remarked by the vast majority of our guests and reviews of delivering the right level of service standards and your score review, we think does not reflect our real value.

Our flight to Florence was delayed so we missed the check in, which we dont understand why if its a property-like hotel the check in time in only til 10 pm. We had to check in the day before and the recepcionist told us we missed one day of breakfast since we didnt check in on time. I mean we paid in advance and yet they told us those were the policies. The place is fine but is in the third floor of a very old bulding, the elevator is so small and old, very complicated to handle with luggage

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your recent stay at Cinque Terre Gateway. We are sorry to hear that you experienced some difficulties with your check-in and the elevator during your stay.Regarding the check-in time, we understand that it can be frustrating to miss it due to flight delays. However, as a small property-like hotel, we do have limited staff available outside of our check-in hours. We apologize if this caused any inconvenience for you.In regards to the breakfast, we apologize for any confusion that may have occurred. Our policy is to provide breakfast for each day of your stay, but if you missed the first day due to a late check-in, unfortunately, we are unable to offer a refund for that missed breakfast.Regarding the elevator, we understand that it may be challenging to handle luggage in a small and old elevator. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this and will certainly take your feedback into consideration as we work to improve our facilities.Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope that you enjoyed your stay in Cinque Terre overall.

The building looks old and we were a little concerned what we were facing. However the "Gateway Hotel" is really just a developed floor of the building. The rooms were very clean and modern and the host was a very friendly and helpful guy. It was also very close to the train station. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Dear ANITRA,Thank you for your visit to the Cinque Terre Gateway.Naturally, I was disappointed to see that not one aspect of your experience with us live up to your expectations. However, we would like to explain that showing up at the check-in with your child having a reservation only for 2 people in which no child is mentioned cannot be considered a reason for complaint.We did our best to find you a room that could accommodate you all together. We then have offered to move you to a Room of a different category: a Deluxe Room the only alternative available, the Front Office has explained clearly that there was a supplement which you agreed to honour.I am sorry you were disappointed with this other solution as well as to blame our property for something that is not our fault has absolutely no grounds, and I have to say that I take great pride of our service standards recognized by the vast majority of our customers.For these reasons we think your words has a pure sense of unfair revenge. We always welcome constructive feedback as an opportunity to improve our service standards and facilities. However, We believe we are highly capable as remarked by the vast majority of our guests and reviews of delivering the right level of service standards.Kind Regards,The Owner
