Reviews for Il Convento

Review 1:A little more light would be great and perhaps a new blanket/comforter.

Review 2:Absolutely fantastic staff! Thank you Manuela and Alberto! Room was comfortable. Hotel was close to station, ferry and restaurants.

Review 3:Very close to beach and local amenities . Very helpful staff who spoke excellent English. Plenty of information on local activities and local restaurants etc. At the quieter end of the town,we will happily stay here again in the future

Review 4:The room was very austere. It had a fold out bed. It simply was not great value for money compared to the other

Review 5:The location was great and the staff were friendly.

Review 6:not very comfortable bed and pillow

Review 7:Perfect location - 20 steps to the sea, not in overcrowded area, 5 minutes walking to everything in the town, 10 minutes walking to the railway station, convinient and clean room with kitchenette, clean and well-equiped bathroom, friendly staff, nice price. Perfect value for money.

Review 8:Really cannot complain about anything.

Review 9:We loved the views from our "Badessa" room of the water and street activity. We loved having a little kitchen at our disposal. The location in Rapallo was close to everything and within walking distance to the market and train station. Our hosts were always accommodating in every way.

Review 10:Reception closes at 10.30pm. Driving from another city and arriving late, the host did not seem too please to have waited until 10.40pm for us to check-in. Also it was not possible to have breakfast because we arrived too late for arrangements to be made. Also the listing said free parking, the confirmation e-mail indicated an extra cost for parking. When we arrived, we were told there were none left.

Review 11:Location is close to the promenade with a sea view. Suite/Studio was spacious. Included a kitchenette.

Review 12:We had a double sofa bed room with sea view. It was certainly worth the few extra dollars for the view. Also used the espresso coffee maker and enjoyed it immensely. The owner Vittorio was fantastic and gave us lots of information. All staff were helpful.

Review 13:Everything was perfect. Warm and excellent service. Large and comfortable room. Ideal location - direct ocean and harbor view, a few steps to the water, could hear the waves washing up to the shore. Easy access to Cinque Terre and Portofino. Good breakfast, free parking. We loved it and plan to be back.

Review 14:If you are old or ageing and require the right thickness and cushioning with a pillow, most of Italy is a difficult mix of too flat, too hard 'slabs'. The beds are firm but great for the posture and surprisingly comfortable but you have to demand the best soft pillows from the house. And then you may only get close (as we did here)

Review 15:Great service, change to palatial room, clean well appointed bathroom, harbour view, quiet area but for two metal manholes in road outside that some cars would hit

Review 16:There was nothing at all we didn't like about the place.

Review 17:Friendly staff,excellent location close to the bay,shopping and the railway station.Easy to get to other locations by train or bus. The views out over the bay from our room were beautiful.Not to touristy yet!!

Review 18:Air conditioner could only be used until 8pm

Review 19:Beautiful location & view Handy having a kitchen Lovely area, only a train ride away from Cinque Terre

Review 20:The air conditioning did not work well and the pillows were thin. No bathroom counter space. But, all of these things seem to be standard in Italy so not necessarily the fault of the lodging (but could be improved). Although the street noise could be loud at times it did not affect our sleep.

Review 21:Alberto's customer service was 5***** and did not go unnoticed, particularly in an era where this seems to be a dieing art. His willingness and helpfulness made us feel welcome and was so appreciated since we have never been to Italy and do not understand or speak the language. He went above and beyond, giving us helpful tips for riding the train, understanding train schedules, and offering directions to the station, grocery store, coffee shop, and some restaurants in the area. The room did not feel cramped; the bed was comfortable; the armoire ample; and views were pleasant. Rapallo was our favorite destination in Italy and we would most certainly book again at II Convento.

Review 22:Difficult parking, although hotel did have one reserved parking spot so you could unload luggage.

Review 23:Great to have a kitchenette in the room. Very helpful, Scottish fellow at the desk. Within walking distance of everything. Free WiFi with no need to sign up to anything. We thought Il Convento was great!

Review 24:Our room (standard category) had no real bed, just a convertible couch hence the quality of sleep was limited.

Review 25:Nicely located, some rooms with sea view. Easy access to beach and restaurants. Very hospital and friendly staff.

Review 26:Kitchen facilities were okay. Suggest some wine glasses would be good and a kettle even if it goes on the stove.

Review 27:People were great and very informative Location fabulous . Spotless facilities Will happily recommend to our friends

Review 28:One qpillow and a bit flat. Wifi good at reception area.

Review 29:Location was perfect, venue was great. Service and assistance given were excellent. Would happily stay again.

Review 30:The Wi-Fi could work more smoothly.

Review 31:The friendliness of the staff. The room was spacious with three windows. The atmosphere of the hotel was peaceful and quiet. The furniture showed taste. The beach is nearby as well as the city centre. The management had reserved a parking space along the road (free of charge!!)

Review 32:The expandable sofa bed is the only inconvenience as it is not as comfy as a double bed. However, it is not so bad either...

Review 33:The rooms are large and nice, the hosts were great and the location is almost perfect (quiet and with a very nice view).

Review 34:It was quite noisy in the evening. The noise from people on the street below and the promenade across goes on till the early hours of the morning. But the sea view makes up for this.

Review 35:Excellent view of the sea from our room.

Review 36:No proper parking availability - had to park in street. Had to do our own bedding and cleaning of the unit.

Review 37:Friendliness and kind assistance of staff

Review 73:No wifi! We stayed 4 nights and no wifi any time. This was very frustrating and because of this I would not recommend this hotel. Sofa bed was big but hard and not very comfortable. A few tea/ coffee bags in kitchenette would have been a friendly gesture.

Review 75:The location is fabulous and the staff, especially Tania, helped us with parking our car, directions to the train station, tickets for the boat to Portofino, keeping our bags after checkout, on and on!

Review 76:Fold-out couch instead of bed was reasonably comfortable, but annoying to fold out and back every day

Review 77:Roomy apartment in older style building had a small kitchen behind folding doors, decent bathroom with shower, 3 large windows made apartment bright Partial sea view was EXCELLENT. Great position

Review 79:N/A

Review 80:Thanks to the hosts of the place - Tania, Manuel, Victor - very friendly, informative, helpful!!! Tania went out of her way to give us great and unique tips on visiting various sights near-by - Thank you - it made all the difference in the world! Manuel's and Victor's hospitality were incredible - although we were booked into a room with a sofa bed, they offered us the room with two double beds taking into account our prolonged 2 weeks stay, ensuring our comfort - thank you! Highly recommend this place!

Review 81:The bed linen have not been change during stay of 1 week.The pillow was a bit uncomfortable. A bit noisy in the morning when if the window is open.It would be good to have a shower gel especially after the sea and have more convenient equipment for drying sea towels and other related things. Though there are just wishes.

Review 85:Great location. There is a small beach right in front of the hotel, and 5 min walk to the promenade, shops and restaurants. Although partially obscured by trees, the view of the harbour was lovely from our sea view room. Travel from Genoa airport as well as Chiavari was easy and cheap by train. Staff were helpful in giving directions to places we wanted to visit in the area.

Review 86:That we had to leave!
