I stayed here for two nights while touring Italy with my high school's choir, and let me start off by saying it would be hard for a hotel to screw up while being in such a beautiful location and this place did not disappoint! The hotel is very pretty and quaint but you can tell it’s an old building, especially... More

My family (husband, mum and 2 young children) stayed for 4 nights at Hotel Nazionale in September 2011. The two rooms we had were spotlessly clean and lovely. The breakfast in the morning was fabulous. We thoroughly enjoyed helping ourselves to soft-boiled eggs, cereals, toast, fruit, tea and coffee etc and then sitting outside in the garden. What a great... More

Levanto was the highlight of our three week self guided tour of Italy, with Hotel Nazionale a wonderful place to stay. The hotel staff were kind, and provided quality information on local restaurants and transport options. Our only negative of our entire tour in Italy was the fine we received after jumping on the wrong train (Intercity train instead of... More

Have just returned from a nightmare in Levanto where we got caught up in the floods. We were basically stranded after the motorway suffered a massive land slide and the trains stopped running. Hotel staff, Police and tourist information were terrible. Hotel staff failed to tell us that a boat was taking stranded people out of Levanto to La Spezia,... More

Levanto itself is a great base for seeing the cinque terre, at first we were disappointed we werent able to stay in one of the 5 towns due to our late booking however, the facilities of levanto are superior and its still a small town so you are still able to enjoy the charm of the region. The hotel actually... More

Our group of 39 have just spend a most memorable week at the Hotel Nazionale, Levanto. The Famiglia Cinollo were most friendly, helpful and did their best to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. Some of the rooms are a little quirky as they are set in the attic but they are a good size and the beautiful roof terrace... More

We decided to stay just outside of Cinque Terre because we had a car and needed parking. I'm so glad we found this hotel! The staff was so incredibly helpful and friendly! We parked in their garage for an additional fee every night but it was so worth it. The garage is locked up and you must leave your key... More

This hotel has it all. It's a perfect location, right in the center of town. The beach is a 5 minute walk and is surrounded by plenty of restaurants and shops. Levanto is the gateway to the Cinque Terre and is very easy to explore using the train, which is a 10 minute walk from the hotel. The Hotel Nazionale... More

First off, Levanto has to be "the place" to stay when visiting Cinque Terre. Save yourself from the hordes and sky high prices in the actual five villages. Levanto is just as beautiful (just not hanging off a cliff), it has bigger beaches, great restaurants and easy access to cinque terre by boat, train, and even foot. Nazionale is a... More
