01 · In a sentence

Best Western Hotel Regina Elena in Santa Margherita Ligure.

Perched directly on the Lungomare waterfront in Santa Margherita Ligure, this 4.3-rated Best Western property commands unobstructed views of the Ligurian coast and the Mediterranean Sea.

The hotel's beachfront position offers natural light and seaside breezes for ceremonies and receptions, with the charming Italian Riviera village as your backdrop.

Stone terraces and harbor vistas create an intimate, European seaside atmosphere without pretense.

Going with a 4 because the pool and hot tub were closed for the duration of our trip and we were not notified (it was a deciding factor when booking). My only other comments is that rm 125 looks at the best western sign which isn't ideal and super bright - thankfully the blackout curtains allowed us to sleep, but it kinda ruins the stunning lake view. Bed was firm but ok for 2 nights. Otherwise, it was a great stay.
