We loved staying at Lacanda Il Maestrale. This hotel is the perfect place to stay in Cinque Terre. This was my third time Cinque Terre and I would stay here time and time again. The rooms are extremely clean. We stayed in the "Cinque Terre" room one night and in the "Vernanza" Suite for two nights. We couldn't have been... more

Locanda al Maestrale is the perfect B&B for a trip to Cinque Terre. This is the second time in 3 years that we have been here and both times have been a wonderful experience. Giovanni & Stefania are gracious hosts who help with everything from making a wonderful cappuccino every morning, providing beach towels, helping out with restaurant recommendations, parking... more

Even though we had a small room, the location of this hotel is excellent. Breakfast terrace was lovely. We would go back again. :-) more

The people here are super nice, accomodating and down to earth. They will make you cappuccino after cappuccino with smiles until the end of the day. The Vernazza suite is quiet with a great loft bedroom. It's right outside the lobby/dining area (all the rooms are) but it's surprisingly not noisy. The owners are SO nice. The outdoor dining area... more

I stayed at Maestrale for 4 nights, 14-18 Sept 07. I heard about it from a colleague who has a friend with family in the area. I first saw the Cinque Terre on the Getaway Travel program in Sydney over 5 years ago and dreamed to come here. When I arrived it was even better than I imagined. I am... more

Maestrale is in the "Old Town" in Monterosso which is definitely where you want to stay unless you want to pretend you're not in Italy. It's about a ten minute walk from the station, which we found comfortable, but if you have a lot of stuff you may want to take a taxi. The hotel entrance is off the main... more

This hotel was the highlight accomodation of our 2-week trip to Italy. It's small - only five or six rooms, so make reservations early because it will fill up. Breakfast is served in the sitting room, which is centrally located among each of the hotel rooms - a great way to get to know the others who are staying in... more

Locanda Il Maestrale was a great place to wrap up our honeymoon in Italy! When we first arrived in Levanto after a very long train ride, it was about 11pm and we were very travel weary. As we knew we were arriving late, we had phoned the owners earlier in the day and they had told us to simply call... more

We stayed 3 nights at the end of August in Monterosso at the Locande Il Maestrale. We stayed in one of the Rooms. I believe the Corniglia. The room was good size and the bathroom had great water pressure and always plenty of hot water which was much needed after a long day of hiking. There was air conditioning. However,... more
