Hotel Villa Elisa & Spa

INCREDIBLE STAY. I celebrated my 30th birthday here with 6 family members, and I cannot express how amazing our stay here was. The staff were brilliant, and even gave me a birthday card signed from the team. The rooms were lovely, the pool was great, the building is stunning and the garden is a work of art. We couldn't have asked for anything more. I cannot reccommend Hotel Villa Elisa more, and will certainly be coming back. Thank you again, to all the staff and a special thank you to Teresa.

This is a lovely hotel, with amazing staff. The hotel is located in beautiful gardens, with lovely heated pool. The staff are very helpful and go above and beyond what is required, or expected, especially Carolina. We stayed in the apartment, which has a large living & dining area and kitchen. Downstairs there is a double room and a twin room, as well as a bathroom. Highly recommend.

Wonderful hotel on a gem of a town. Old world charm in a perfect setting. Breakfast was wonderful. Fresh pastries, bread and fruit. Lovely pool with food and drinks available. Only thing is the rooms are a bit dated, but all in keeping with the local architecture and area. Don’t go to Nice or Monaco. Go to Bordighera instead and you won’t regret it! Do take the ‘monet walk’ from the old town as it is stunning.

Staying at the Villa Elisa was such a pleasant experience. It has a nice old-world charm and a lush private garden outside--it feels very special. And the grounds are sufficiently elevated from the street level so it feels like being in another world. The hotel is also very clean and the people helping guests are super friendly. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again!

A hidden little gem! Bordighera may not be on everyone's list of places to see but if you find yourself needing a rest spot near the border I highly recommend a night here. The hotel is not on the beach but for that you get the extra value of the pool and spa. All guests are treated to one hour free at the spa. The hotel is not "updated" as far as decor is concerned but very clean. We had a large double bed, which was two 90cm put together. The mattresses were very comfortable. We paid the 15 euros for breakfast and found it was more than ample, you could also order omelettes and pancakes off the menu. Easy walk to the old town. There was no noise from the street but be careful there was construction next door when we came.Receptionist was very knowledgeable and was able to answer our question about touring the Garnier house. There is also a Bucknell museum and markets in town.

Superb breakfast, excellent location, well-kept pool and garden, great kindness of all the staff. Strict cancellation policy: my mother-in-law's hospitalization certificate didn't help to find any compromise and I had to spend the holiday without my wife. Such a pity: I won't be returning.
