01 · In a sentence

Hotel Bar Ristorante Montallegro in Rapallo.

Guests arrive at this clifftop hotel on the Italian Riviera to find themselves 300 meters above the Ligurian Sea, with a restaurant and bar that opens onto panoramic terraces.

The on-site dining venues become natural ceremony and reception spaces, allowing your party to move seamlessly from vows to cocktails without leaving the property.

Each attendee departs with memories of the coastal light, local wine, and the particular intimacy of a celebration held at an actual working hotel where life continues around your event.

Only stopped for lunch while visiting the church. Fantastic food, lovely staff and amazing views. Can't remember the names, but seafood pasta and salsiccia pasta were both fantastic as was the bruschette starter 👌🏻 Highly recommend, off the beaten track and well worth the effort getting here! Grazie tutti ❤️
