    Lovely traditional Villa Hotel in a great setting and location. The pool area was lovely. The room was spacious and the air conditioning very efficient. The staff were extremely helpful and accommodating, especially Carolinna.

    A personal touch to 'soften' the single room decor.

    Superb! The gardens are exceptional. The creative idea of a table and two chairs in different secluded settings works so well. The pool was a real treat. New, pristine and a beautiful setting. Very comfy cabanas in attractive settings. Peace! Food was excellent. Wide variety of items at breakfast such as apple strudel! Delicious. Lunch and dinner were both very good. Very impressive spa. Thank you to all staff for your care and attentionm

    Our comfort room was the size of a stateroom on a cruise, with the only difference being the tall ceiling. So it was too tiny to be comfortable. We only had 2 carry on suitcases and were running out of space. Also the decor was too dated (bulky 90s wood stuff). I think the room could have been more pleasant if it used minimalist modern furniture and had a bath facelift (also the shower pressure was non-existent).

    The garden of Eden around the villa and everything there, the pool, the rest areas, Teresa the cat were phenomenal. The common areas were right out of a movie set taking you back to the early 20th century. Great views from the balcony and quite romantic from the outside and the common areas. The staff were very friendly and efficient.

    The breakfast buffet could be more diversified The bathroom was really small and the positioning of the toilet in the bathroom very impractical The WiFi is horribly slow... that has to be fixed The charge for the pet (EUR 15 per day) is a rip off considering that a cat isn't generating any additional work for the staff (we did all the cat-support)

    Ideal location, walking distance to the Corso Italia and to the beach front. Nice property, with a beautiful garden and a pleasant relaxing area (outside) Reasonably large room, with a very comfortable bed Very kind and efficient staff

    The hotel is placed in beautiful gardens and has many lovely places to sit under trees and shrubs to enjoy the shade and the beauty of the surrounding plants. The pool is nicely arranged in the garden and a SPA is available. The room was practical and well set out with a large continental double bed and properly functioning air conditioning, which allowed a great nights sleep. The staff is incredibly friendly and supportive and gave excellent recommendations and service. The surrounding area has much to discover and there is lots to do. The nearest beach (pebble beach) is a 10 minutes walk away and one can stop on the way at some lovely ice cream shops. I would love to go back tomorrow!

    Dinner at the hotel could have been more interesting. Kind of plain food, but we noticed Northern European travelers there, so maybe that’s the preference?

    The hotel staff was so welcoming, which is always a great start! The hotel itself is an oasis of tranquility- beautiful gardens, a relaxing atmosphere & a nice sized pool. Our room was a suite, so while we didn’t need the extra space, it gave us an airy feeling. The room was very comfortable; decor was simple which we prefer instead of overly fussy & fancy. We faced front, towards the street & enjoyed the view over the gardens looking at the town. Quick walk to the beach- they recommended a private beach which was great. Breakfast was wonderful & while dinner was good, I would suggest eating out for dinner. Easy walk up to Old Bordighera, a highlight of the trip. We enjoyed the grounds & eating outdoors. Loved it!

    the staff were excellent, especially the young man who spoke several different languages, he was really friendly and helpful, gave us great directions fro the best route out to the motorway and made a really great latte macchiato. restuarant was good with great service and buffet breakfast which was included had a good choice. the property was in a good location, the room was very clean bright and airy with good air con. building works are going on next door but we hardly noticed any noise from it. the pool area was lovely and there was a large choice of different seating areas around the pool and gardens. parking was secure and we had a undercover parking space for our motorcycles on our second night

    Old-world charm in Bordighera.

    A free frigobar with water, beer and soft drinks would be a welcome touch that guests might enjoy. Several hotels offer this kind of courtesy to their guests nowadays.

    Old-world charm in Bordighera: this is an accurate description of Villa Elisa. An old, well-kept, late 19th-century villa on the high part of town, with a lovely view of the Mediterranean in the distance. Our room had a balcony overlooking a beautiful garden and the town below. We enjoyed the atmosphere, the cordiality of the staff, the lovely swimming pool and the excellent breakfast that was served every morning. We would love to return one day.
