    The only small knock was the very small space in the shower.

    The room was nice with a lovely view. Breakfast provided everyday was delicious. The staff servicing the restaurant were superb.

    I loved the place entirely. There was a slight issue which was my fault, but the owner quickly introduced himself and we were able to fix it together. Thank you!

    The staff at il Magan were absolutely fantastic and made this magical place feel even more special. Between the amazing location, an amazing view from the terrace (which was unfortunately being renovated during my stay), delicious breakfast and an incredibly helpful set of staff, my stay couldn’t have gone any better. The beds were incredibly comfortable which made for a great night’s sleep, and made it tempting to lay there instead of going out exploring! When I come back to Corniglia, I’ll have to stay with this hotel again.

    There was nothing to complain about...all was great.

    While small and at the top of a steep flight of stairs, the room was comfortable, bed was good, bathroom and shower were adequate, and the balcony and view were wonderful. And the staff, every last one of them, couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. Breakfasts were delicious and mostly to order and served overlooking the coastline and sea. And the location was sufficiently out of the mayhem of the major tourist area that it was quiet.

    A set of hooks in the bedroom would be helpful. Having a place to hold luggage before and after checkout would also be very helpful. A small fold out bedside table would be nice. I used a fold up cube that I travel with. But there’s nothing I did not like about il Magan.

    The room and bathroom were updated and clean. Very nice floors. The space was very well organized for a small space. It fit all my belongings perfectly. The bed was very comfortable and the balcony has a nice view of the sea. I loved how the new glass door could open for access to the balcony or tilt open as a window to allow the fresh sea air come in. The included breakfast is delicious and served on a patio with amazing views of the sea. Corniglia is amazing and Il Magan is so nice. My room was perfect for a solo traveler. I would definitely stay here again!

    Sofa bed mattress wasn’t very comfortable

    Fabulous views of the Cinque Terra coastline from our room and the hotel restaurant. Good central location close to restaurants yet very quiet. Loved the quaint historical atmosphere of the hotel which was typical of Corniglia. Breakfast was substantial and served with a fabulous view of the hillside and ocean. Staff were friendly and attentive. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend the hotel. Beware luggage has to be carried to the hotel from the bus stop for about 300m over cobblestones so avoid heavy or bulky luggage.

    Well-located, clean room with delightful view.

    The shower was tiny—it would be hard for someone who is either tall or large to use, though this is probably typical of guest spaces that have to be worked into old buildings in this town. On one or two days, it was quite rainy, and some water leaked into our room, though the staff attended to it promptly once we informed them of the issue.

    The room had a lovely view out of large windows next to a nice dining table and chairs to relax in at the end of the day. Also had a refrigerator (and a fireplace!). Breakfast is served on the lovely terrace just below the rooms, with a view of the Ligurian Sea. There is a variety of good breakfast options. The location was great—right on the main street through the old part of Corniglia. It is quiet in the evening, and we had some of our best nights' sleep of the entire trip!

    Noise - I could hear the TV below me, the couple next door’s conversation, the people on the building next door…it is not well insulated but the building is old. I was also woken up by someone who had checked in late trying to find their room. This was the most disappointing thing as they were loud and I was up early hiking the following morning.

    The location is fabulous. The little balcony is great and, for one night, the room was fine in terms of size and comfort. Breakfast included was good and a wonderful view to eat and drink from. Staff were lovely and really helpful.
