Belmond Hotel Splendido

What a wonderful stay! From beginning to end (I wish I could have stayed another few days). The views from the suite are breathtaking of the Portofino bay. The bed and bedding was top with our initials on the pillows- that is classy! I love the top quality juices in the free non-alcoholic minibar! My favorite restaurant is the grill where they make the best pizzas outside of Naples! Good wine list. The pool is lovely and nice and warm (30 C). Portofino is an easy walk away (at least there as it’s downhill), but a shuttle is also available. Breakfast is fab. Lots of choice. My favorite was the eggs with local red shrimp. Top! The crispy bacon is not to be missed. The entire team is fabulous and everyone seem very happy and proud of being part of the team. Alfonso’s great leadership skills play a role here- people are not micro managed, but take responsibility. The car service was top. When we departed the car was washed and the team managed miracles filling our car with tons of bags. Zero stress! See you next year!

Following a stunning redesign, one of the most iconic hotels in the world has finally reopened and is truly SPLENDIDO. Presiding over the hillside of Portofino, the Splendido epitomises La Dolce Vita in the Italian riviera and serves as magnet for the most discerning clientele looking for perfect service, fabulous food and of course- the cinematographic panorama of the bay below.. Repeat guests like us were happy to see the hotel’s new decor - the designer managed to add a more contemporary glamorous look but at the same time keeping the old school classy style loved by us all. We were a group of six friends and all found love in Portofino from the moment we arrived. What a welcome. It was such a pleasure to be greeted by the extremely hands-on general manager, Alfonso Pacifico and Ermes de Megni (currently the hotel’s ambassador after 25 years in charge of this iconic property) Room to book? Well… We absolutely loved our San Giorgio suite- the crown jewel of the hotel with breathtaking views from the three balconies. Wow! What to expect? Dom Pérignon perfectly chilled, fine chocolates, beautiful flowers and personalised amenities- it’s a suite life after all and it is a Splendido one. I could simply write a love letter instead of a review to thank all members of the team. When hospitality comes from the heart, everything is more special. Congratulations are in order to Alfonso Pacifico and his Splendido family- luxury is when you feel welcome immediately and the members of the team managed just that. Antonella, Clarissa, Rita at breakfast, Nicolo at the bar and the legendary Vlad (piano) to name a few. Add an Incredible breakfast, fabulous grill (casual) and great entertainment at the bar to the stunning facilities and you will certainly realise how Splendido this place really is. See you all in 2026 .

This hotel is exceptional in every way. The Property is stunning.The food was delicious. The service was top notch and the staff are amazing and so friendly.

Splendido, A Belmond Hotel, the level of customer service, outstanding professionalism, and attention to every detail was phenomenal. Splendido truly set the bar. Clarissa Pacifico, Rooms Division Manager led us to our beautiful Baronessa Suite. The suite was opulently decorated envisioned by an Italian aristocrat. The view from our balcony to the Gulf of Portofino was awe inspiring! Dinner at La Terazza was amazing. Overlooking the Gulf of Portofino, the views were breathtaking. We all shared the Sea Bass whole fish. The preparation was perfect and our dinner was exquisite. The executive team always warmly greeted us when we were visible in the hotel. The entire staff is always asking how can they improve our stay. Special thank you to: Natasha Sacchetti, Assistant Rooms Division Manager Martina Beraldo, Food and Beverage Manager Francina Viu, Assistant Front Desk Manager Antonella Guidone, Guest Experience Manager Luca Cerretti, Restaurant Manager Splendido Grill Andrea Buzzetta, Bar Manager Christian, our waiter. My wife Judy and her friend Evie were invited to visit the executive kitchen and meet the Executive Chef. Judy and Evie participated in a complimentary Pesto Cooking class. The class was directed by Federico Paolella, Assistant F&B Manager and Chef Paulo. A private luncheon at the Splendido Grill consisting of fresh pesto and pasta was enjoyed by the four of us. Amazing experience. Clarissa introduced us to Alfonso Pacifico the General Manager. Alfonso was very friendly, warm, genuine, and professional. He reaffirmed the hotel’s commitment to making our stay the best possible. Thank you, Alfonso. Our entire stay was unparalleled. We commented the entire hotel’s staff was dedicated to our happiness and enjoyment. Visually Splendido is stunning. The architecture, style, color design and atmosphere is spectacular. Perched on the mountainside, the views from the hotel are breathtaking. We cherish the memories and experiences from our stay. We look forward to our return!

Excellent vacation to the Splendido. The luxury relaxing areas on the property. The food and the staff were amazing.
