La Terrazza dei Pelargoni B&B

Wow, this place was amazing! So beautiful decoration. Very good breakfast. Nice location in old town.

Having read the other reviews, I think they must all have been younger and fitter than us. At the start I must warn others that if you have mobility issues , including heart problems, then this place is not for you. Also, I cannot review the property advertised as we were moved to another similar property nearby on arrival, due to drainage issues. Yes, our replacement property was charming and decorated in antique Italian sytle, with all mod cons, sounding very like the original, but again it was situated on the top floors of a village house so there were at least 3 staircases to get to the front door, then another narrow metal staircase to reach the indoor or outdoor dining areas. We had a balcony with a view of the town below. Breakfast was served in the sun on the outdoor roof terrace (in March!, a bonus), and the staff are very helpful and friendly. As mentioned by others, the breakfast consisted mainly of sweet things, although fresh fruit was served and cold meat, cheese or eggs were offered. Getting to the property is not for the faint-hearted either, if you are on foot from the station. The old town is of course on the top of a hill and the last third of the journey is a steep footpath so if you have luggage, take a taxi, but you then still have to negotiate this path each time you go to the main area of town below. Fortunately there was a very good small restaurant nearby, to the left of the cathedral, a choice of only two without doing the steep journey, where we were made very welcome. We normally choose unusual or quirky hotels, and were not disappointed in that aspect of the place, but we feel more warning should be given about the difficult access, both inside and outside, to avoid potential heart attacks from the older generation!

This was an amazing stay in a beautiful location in old town. The building is old, but that was the charm. The room was comfortable and breakfast was very good, served on the terrace. Wasn’t too far from the train station. Definitely worth the climb. If you like new & modern, this isn’t for you. If you like charm, beauty, historical areas & close to a beach, I would recommend staying here!

This place is in Old Town Ventimiglia. We were on the third floor and had to climb some very old and steep stairs to get to our room. Once there, it is very charming and the rooftop garden was spectacular. The staff was very helpful carrying our baggage up to the room and back down when we left. They were very helpful throughout our stay and the breakfasts in the garden were exceptional. Getting into the main part of the cuty is a chore, but the quiet and charm of staying in old town is worth it. Especially after we found out there is an elevator available instead of taking thousands of stairs up and down. Overall, I would give La Terrazza dei Pelargoni at 5 stars based on the service and friendliness alone.

Great experience. They were incredibly accommodating when we were running late for check in and were super friendly during our stay. They got to know us and always took our preferences in our breakfast order. Incredibly comfortable and located in the cutest part of town. Free parking just around the corner and restaurants within walking distance.

Charming place, was placed at the other house one street away, all good

Fabulous staff and a great breakfast by candlelight prepared by one of the two wonderful staff who helped me. Loved this place in the center of the historic ancient town - wonderful experience!

Nice place in old town and with great host
