About

Featuring a swimming pool and free Wi-Fi, La Riserva di Castel d’Appio offers panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea. It is set on a hilltop halfway between Monte Carlo and Sanremo, just above Ventimiglia. Dinner is served in the La Riserva’s elegant winter restaurant or on the flower-filled terrace near the pool. Enjoy delicious fish specialties as well as international cuisine. Ideal for visiting towns in both France and Italy, La Riserva is 20 minutes from Monaco and 30 from Sanremo and there are also lesser-known pretty medieval towns nearby such as Dolceacqua.

Pros +

  • The staff
  • The only issue was mosquitoes in the bedrooms. Otherwise, we LOVED the resort.
  • Antonello, the owner, was outstanding and attentive to service. He even drove us to the train station when we had difficulty getting a cab! Restaurant was OUTSTANDING; a wonderful surprise and provided a top 4 meal over a 17 day trip. Views from room were exquisite! Enjoyed having a sunset bottle of wine and appetizers brought to our room. Enjoyed the pool — loved the “old school” feel.

Cons -

  • distance from train. Shower
  • Screened windows to keep the mosquitoes out.
  • Only “issue” — and I’m stretching to say that, is we weren’t aware of how far the hotel was from town — once you’re up on the hill, you’re there to stay unless you have transportation. (Frankly that’s what I loved about the place!)

An older hotel in a picturesque location with rooms that have updated facilities. We booked a room with a balcony and were delighted to find the view exceeded our expectations. The staff were all very helpful and nothing was too much trouble to ensure we had a really enjoyed stay. Having breakfast on the large terrace overlooking the water was delightful. Free car parking is another benefit along with being sent detailed information on how to find the hotel. The alternative route from Ventimiglia is narrow, steep and very windy!

Fabulous suite .very spacious with everything we needed .Drive up to it was a bit daunting but worth it when you get to the hotel for the most amazing views

8AndrewPosted on: 9-11-2024

Location was good

The drive up was very windy and steep and not for the faint hearted having to contend with other drivers etc.

Pool area, view, restaurant and staff.

9LeighPosted on: 9-5-2024

The location is wonderful. Views are sensational. So beautiful. The pool was great, the kids loved it. Great for swimming and diving. A traditional hotel with old fashioned wonderful service and panoramic views that blew my mind. The icing on the cake is the restaurant, food and service was first class. Honestly, I’d 100% return.

Loved it all!

Beautiful hotel with a long history. Our room had stunning views of the sea from different angles. The restaurant is very good, the best food we've had on our trip. The staff is friendly and helpful. The swimming pool area is very nice. Breakfast is excellent and the gentleman who made coffees was extremely kind. We really liked the whole atmosphere. Some might find the decor a bit dated but we thought it fitted the aesthetic.

Staff are nice and friendly. The views are truly exceptional. Rooms are clean, have AC, plenty of space and light.

The facilities are a little dated.

The team was very welcome and accommodating. We were serve lunch after 2 pm , it was great for us as to rest after busy holiday. I used swimming pool and towels were provided by hotel. The drinks are available while you are resting by the pool , the hotel provides free of charge nibbles like peanuts etc , the hotel had a lot of charm and wonderful tarace with breaking taking views where we had a dinner . It is good place where you want to relax with good book but good for family with children as there is swimming pool which i mentioned before. We had a dinner which we enjoyed a lot. There is a big garden around the hotel where you can have a nice stroll or sit on one of sitting area. We were completely switch off there and left relax before long drive. Highly recommended

Can’t think of anything

10BridgettePosted on: 6-30-2024

Loved the views, amazing! Loved that the property was big enough to feel very spacious and loved the pool area

8ChrisPosted on: 5-30-2024

Great location with fantastic views. We stayed in a two bedroom suite with terrace, small garden and superb view. The stairs down were a bit tricky especially for clients with mobility issues. The rooms were spacious with basic furnishings and a comfortable bed. The bathroom was spacious with large walk-in shower which needed some adjustment to prevent leakage onto the floor. The rooms are quite dated and if neighbouring rooms were occupied limited privacy on the terrace but it was not an issue for us.We enjoyed a good dinner which was quite pricey but overall worth the money. Service throughout was exceptional.The outside area and pool terraces were great we had breakfast on the terrace enjoying the far reaching views.

The rooms are a bit dated and could do with a makeover and upgrade to match the rates being charged. Lighting was poor and there were signs of unfinished work on the front door. The hotel is full of character so one must accept that some antiques are a little over done by today's standards.

8MihaPosted on: 5-3-2024

Excellent view from top of the hill, friendly staff, big enough rooms.

A little more upkeep would be needed for this price point.
