Grand Hotel Spiaggia

Great experience at Grand Hotel Spiaggia in Alassio. The room was so spacefull and the view from the balcony made the ticket. Nice service and good food to the Six floor. Last day we went to the top floor to dinner and the atmosfere was so magic with candles and nice background music. Also the view was amazing. U can see all the cost from there. Thank you. 5 star We'll back soon.

I will start with two positive things about this hotel: it’s clean and the staff is friendly. However it is way too overpriced for what it is. 226€ a night for mediocre room facing another building with no welcome free bottles of water, no bathrobes, no slippers no room service and very basic interior. In my opinion the 4 stars are a big exaggeration for what this hotel has to offer. For 120€ it would be fine but for twice the price I certainly expect much more. We will not come back and I don’t recommend it if you want your money’s worth.

3rd year in Liguria, first time staying in Alassio. I cannot understand why everything is more expensive than in other places, 10-15 minutes away on the coast. It is more touristic, but that in fact is a disadvantage as there are huge crowds especially in the evening, you have to squeeze to pass by on the main shopping street. Umbrella prices : around 50 EUR / day for an umbrella and 2 basic sunbeds ?? There is a public beach if you walk to 20 minutes to the edge of Alassio, there it's around 30 EUR but was fully booked for the season, not that you would want to walk 20 minutes back and forth in the heat. All the other private beaches seem aligned around 50 EUR. Also the private beaches open at 9:00 ? If you want a stroll or dip earlier you have to go all the way to the public beach. This is not the case in other resorts in Liguria. Now to the hotel, location is OK, beach front, clean and breakfast is truly very good, way above average with lots of options. We didn't opt for sea view rooms, as we were on the beach all day anyway, don't think it's worth the price difference. A few negative points that can be bothering though : - the pool on the top is super small, if there are more than 6 people around it looks already crowded. - you have to give your car keys and they are parking the car and bringing it when needed. Although we asked for our car 1 hour before we needed it, still had to wait 20 minutes extra, not OK when you have a fixed schedule. Also 29 EUR/ day for parking, in previous years in other locations this was included, at no extra charge. - the hotel's restaurant lunch and dinner is too expensive. There are 4 courses, each with 3 options that you can choose from. The food is very good nothing to say, but 55 EUR seems exaggerated. +10 EUR if you want it served one floor above, on the terrace. Weird. We only tried once, so many good places to eat around.

This is a 4 star hotel with fabulous service. Friendly and efficient. The breakfast is 5 star and highly recommended. The parking service works fine even when chock a block. English and German spoken!
