Reviews of Albergo delle Ondine 1 stars

Delicious croissants. Lovely terras, very lively and wonderful for drinks in the evening. The location was ideal, overlooking the main square - close to a harbour beach.

Although breakfast was delicious, there were not enough options, e.g. eggs and toast, fresh fruits - the only options were pastries and focaccia. It does get quite noisy leaving the windows open, especially with the pickup of trash in the evenings. Double bed was two single beds pushed together.

This is a small independent and family run Albergo. The location is bang slap in the middle of Tellaro, and the cafe / restaurant terrace (with lovely views of Tellaro out to sea) serves as a meeting point for all life - so its busy and lively and fun, but not always that peaceful. Ilaria is a superb and ultra efficient hostess who runs the onsite cafe, and Emmanuelle is incredibly helpful and polite. Both have immaculate English and are very friendly. Breakfast was lovely - simple and sufficient, on the terrace. Coffee delicious. The place is a real team effort with locals and regulars mixing with holiday makers alike. There is a lovely casual and friendly atmosphere with all made to feel welcome. If you are after feather pillows and a really good nights sleep, perhaps this isn't the place for you. But if you like character and a great location, and a lively spot - and are perhaps happy to sacrifice a bit of comfort, then this place is a real experience and to be recommended.

The uncomfortable mattresses which needed updating (which they did their best in a friendly manner to help make better when I complained, by putting wool blankets under the sheets which improved the situation temporarily). The thousands of bottles being recycled outside our bedroom window every morning loud crash. The lack of bedside lamps in the room (one was provided when I asked). The lack of sea view, unfortunately our room was not looking out to sea, if you want a sea view, and in any case, I would always recommend booking directly!!

The location was brilliant - right in the centre of Tellaro

No TV or coffee-making facilities in the room No clean towels during 5-day stay Parking provided (5 euros a day), but some distance from accommodation

Very nice and charming hotel! A place with such a special atmosphere in such beautiful surroundings is rare to find.

The place is beautiful, the sea is just 3 minutes away, the hosts are very friendly. On the first floor there is a bar/cafe, you can eat there, have breakfast or aperitivo

Located in the beautiful village of Tellaro. Much more quiet than the busy villages of Cinque Terre. Accomodation has a beautiful terrace with sea view. Staff is friendly. Rooms are clean.

Really enjoyed the terrace area for sundowners, close proximity to the sea. Great little village atmosphere.

The mosquitoes. Bring spray.

The staff was very friendly, the room had space and it was clean. The parking is just at 5/7 minutes walking. 4 options for breakfast.

No hot water in the morning for the shower

The location is absolutely wonderful. The terrace offers spectacular views over the Gulf of Poets. The host Matteo was fantastic, offering flexible breakfast times and advice on local sights. The breakfast is lovely and in the evening you can also enjoy some drinks on the terrace.

No complaints!

The terrace, so wonderfull with a view tot the sea, very nice music and very helpful people! The whole building, clean rooms, Nice bathroom, seaview from the room, we loved it very much.

Nothing

The hotel is right in the centre of Tellaro which is great! The staff were lovely and the views were beautiful. The hotel bar/cafe was great - always full of people, great for the free breakfast (super yummy!), salads or sandwiches for lunch and drinks and bar snacks in the evening. We loved our stay in Tellaro and Albergo delle Ondine.

If you want a quiet hotel (which we didn't have preference for) this may not be for you. The bar is a popular place and as it is an old hotel there is not much sound proofing. But if you like to be in the midst of everything then it's a great place to be.

Small but typical (and totally sufficient) breakfast included. Very nice terrace and good views. Hotel is very centrally located - we loved it but be aware if you don't like busy in the evenings. It's buzzling and vibrant. We had a great stay!

A really wonderful and special place. The view from the room and terrace is breathtaking. The room itself was simple but clean and comfortable. The hotel is just a few steps from a bus stop where there is a regular connection to Lerici/La Spezia, so great for anyone relying on public transport.

It was perfect

Amazing place and view, also the personel where nice and helpful
