About Grand Hotel Torre Fara

Grand Hotel Torre Fara stands apart with its rare combination of a working lighthouse tower and seaside hotel operations, a distinction virtually unmatched along the Italian Riviera.

Perched directly on the Ligurian coast in Chiavari, this property leverages its maritime heritage and 4.6-star rating to deliver ceremonies with genuine historical character rather than manufactured ambiance.

The venue's clifftop position provides unobstructed sea views and natural ceremony backdrops without requiring additional decoration.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the hotel itself was beautiful and well-equipped with all the facilities you could wish for. Breakfast was excellent and came with stunning views.
