Hotel Jolanda

We have stayed at Hotel Jolanda many times over the past 14 years. We continue to come back because we like that it is a boutique hotel and in a very convenient location. We had a junior suite and it was fantastic. Breakfast is OK with a reasonable selection. Quality was average. We had always previously being very happy with the staff. This was the longer the case. Two men at the desk were not friendly during check-in and failed to greet us any time we walked by, even when we greeted them. The lady who was at the desk when we left was very pleasant and helpful. We also used the valet parking service, which is great, although the valet himself not pleasant. Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much, but having staff that seem to care about the guests a little more would’ve made this a great stay

Amazing staff! We were just passing through the town because of bad weather and they went above and beyond with helping us. They helped book a taxi and even though the kitchen was closed they got us food. I can’t begin to explain how incredibly well they treated us and didn’t have to! Grateful for them plus it’s gorgeous property.

Excellent in every way! Location, staff, food and rooms. Highly recommended. The small city of Santa Margeritha a gem. Safe, beautiful and with a great position between Portofino and Rapallo. Genuine and with a tangible air of Italy. Do not miss the centrally located palazzo Villa Durazzo.

My daughter and I enjoyed our stay here. It's a cute hotel with an excellent location in Santa Margherita, close to both the train station and the beach front. Friendly staff, quiet rooms (double glazing) good comfy bed and cute decor downstairs too. I would stay here again.

The hotel is located fairly close to the railway station, restaurants and the water. We were travelling with our 3 teenage grandchildren, one who was staying at this hotel with us and two who decided to stay at another hotel, (economics). We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived, as we were planning to quickly book in and then accompany the other two to their hotel. However, as we were welcomed and the booking confirmed, the receptionist asked about the other two and offered to arrange for their transfer to their respective hotel by their own hotel vehicle. Very convenient for our group. The two rooms that were assigned were both very comfortable and clean and had their own balcony. NB: (We had stayed at Santa Margherita Ligure before on two previous occasions but the particular hotel we had stayed at was undergoing a refurbishment so we had opted for the Jolanda hotel and were not at all disappointed). As mentioned previously, we were within close walking distance from the railway station, the restaurants and more particularly the water for both swimming and ferry access. The included breakfasts that we had were fresh and plentiful and the attending staff were efficient and courteous. On the day that we left we had arranged for a hotel transfer to the nearby Rapallo station for both our group of three, and, also for the other two grandchildren from their hotel,as we to catch an early train to Rome. The hotel also arranged for a breakfast box "to go" for our particular group. Overall, our experience at Hotel Jolanda was terrific and we would happily stay there again.

This place was lovely to stay for our 3 nights in Santa Margarita. The hotel is in a very handy location well positioned for restaurants and the beach front. The valet parking was very good and reasonable and the hotel staff were all very friendly. Breakfast was excellent with a very good choice and attentive staff (they could, on occasion, be a little quick to take away plates and glasses) but the restaurant was very clean and tidy. The focaccia was delicious! The rooms were nice with nice bed linen and towels, the bathroom was a little on the small side as the door opened into the toilet. All in all a great hotel for exploring Santa Margarita - I would definitely recommend
