01 · In a sentence

Hotel il Colle in Levanto, open JuneNovember.

Hotel il Colle occupies a restored 19th-century building in Levanto, perched above the Cinque Terre coastline with sweeping Mediterranean views.

Originally constructed as a private villa, the structure underwent comprehensive restoration to preserve its period architecture while introducing modern hospitality amenities.

The hotel now operates as a full-service destination wedding venue with on-site accommodations for 40+ guests across its rooms and suites.

This little gem is a true boutique hotel. Tucked into the foothills of Monterosso, it’s charming, quaint, and full of character. The setting feels peaceful and slightly removed from the bustle, but still close enough to walk everywhere. Each corner of the property feels intentional, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere from the moment you arrive.
