Cozy structure, excellent location, rooms furnished with character. Maximum availability of the owners and their 'Wagging' friends. Difficult parking to find and not available on site. Good but somewhat 'basic' breakfast. The staff welcomed us with great style and ready to fulfill any request. There are 2 beautiful dogs, sweet and cuddly. The rooms had a good touch of class, cozy and with private bathroom. Excellent location 5 minutes from the sea and near the city center. Unfortunately, I have to make 2 slight negative notes: 1 on the phone we understood that we could pay to park the car on site, but they communicated upon arrival that the spot was not available. 2 breakfast was good, but there wasn't much choice. Considering a good quality price and that these 2 slight shortcomings did not negatively affect the quality of our stay, I would gladly return to this structure.

The answer from the host:
Gentilissimo Andrea, grazie della recensione. E' stato un piacere anche per noi ospitarvi all'Hotel San Desiderio. Sin dalla prima risposta alla vostra richiesta di prenotazione, vi abbiamo indicato che il posto auto in garage alla tariffa di 20, 00 € andava prenotato in anticipo. Ne abbiamo solo 3 disponibili. Lo stesso vale per i 3 permessi auto gratuiti che il comune di Rapallo ci fornisce. Essendo l'albergo previsto al completo, siamo in ogni caso riusciti a fornirvi un permesso auto. Avete chiamato la sera prima dell'arrivo e ve lo abbiamo riservato. La prima colazione è a buffet freddo con bevande calde servite: normalmente viene molto apprezzata per la presenza del dolce e del salato (salumi, formaggio), frutta fresca, succhi di frutta, cereali, focaccia fresca e cornetti in tavola. Vi siete potuti fare vari toast con il tostapane. Se pensavate di trovare anche uova, salsicce o bacon, non sono piatti che prepariamo perché non abbiamo la cucina. Filippo, io e i cagnoloni Zoe e Poldo vi salutiamo cordialmente da Rapallo. Arrivederci, Marco.

My boyfriend and I stayed here during the Ferragosto period and we had a great time. The manager Marco was always super helpful and his valuable tips led us to discover wonderful coves. Despite being a 2-star hotel, we were very happy that the room was spacious with a TV, air conditioning, and a very useful mini fridge. The breakfast was very abundant and varied, both sweet and savory, to be enjoyed peacefully in the garden. The location is excellent, you can walk everywhere in a few minutes, especially along the seafront. We thank everyone for the hospitality and friendliness, including the lovely dog Idefix. I would suggest more care for the garden because having it in the city center is a real gem. Thank you all.

Gentilissima Monika, grazie mille delle belle parole. È stato un piacere anche per noi accogliervi e farvi sentire a casa al San Desiderio e aspettiamo di accogliervi di nuovo presto. Guarda caso il nostro giardino è stato riconfigurato totalmente da poco e ora è molto più ordinato e curato. Aspettiamo quindi di rivedervi presto e vi salutiamo calorosamente! da Rapallo, Marco, Filippo, Nathalie & Idefix.

A weekend with friends brightened by the kindness and availability of the managers of this property. The environments are simple, but the care they have for guests and details definitely makes up for it. We really felt at home! If I were to come back to this area, I would definitely choose this hotel again. The warm Genoese focaccia in the morning is worth 1,000 points. The breakfast is very good and varied. Excellent location for its proximity to both the Rapallo station, the city center, and the sea. Super approved!

A corner of peace where you can breathe all the love that the owners have put into the realization of this hotel. The kindness and availability of these people make the stay unique. Behind every corner there is a detail that makes you understand that nothing is left to chance, many small details that make a great work.

Grazie mille Sarah di questa bellissima recensione, siamo felici anche noi quando riusciamo a far sentire i nostri ospiti un po' come a casa, in un angolo felice. Cerchiamo di offrire un'ospitalità semplice, informale, ma allo stesso tempo ci sono tanti piccoli dettagli che permettono di sentirsi a proprio agio e di rilassarsi in un'atmosfera quasi di casa. Filippo, io e il cagnolone fifone Idefix aspettiamo di accogliervi di nuovo presto e vi salutiamo calorosamente da Rapallo, Marco.

Hotel San Desiderio is really charming, we were very happy and satisfied. Very convenient for those arriving by train as it is a short walk from the station. Extremely clean and with extremely friendly and nice owners. My daughter went crazy for the dog Idefix. I hope to return next year. Highly recommended!

Small hotel with about ten rooms, in the center of Rapallo, garden where you can have breakfast in the beautiful season. Almost family-like management for the welcome, kindness, and availability of the managers. Super equipped rooms and super breakfast with a wide range of sweet and savory options. Four-legged friends are welcome.

Fantastic owners who make you feel at home as soon as you enter. Very well-kept and tastefully decorated rooms, equipped with everything you need. There's also a coffee machine and a kettle for tea or herbal teas. The breakfast, both savory and sweet, is excellent and plentiful. The property is in the city center, two minutes from the pedestrian area. Parking is difficult, but the owners provided us with a pass. Finally, the presence of the cheerful doggie brightens the spirits. Just a pity we only stayed for one night.

Marco is a very sunny, kind, responsive, and effective person! Our stay at Hotel San Desiderio was perfect: clean room equipped with the necessary and more, located in the heart of the city of Rapallo, 5 minutes from the train station and a stone's throw from the seafront. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious! If we pass by Rapallo again, we will definitely stay there. Thank you Marco for your hospitality 🤗.

Hello. Only two nights, a quick weekend, and I highly recommend it both for the location (3 minutes walk from the sea and the center, next to a small supermarket, bar, and bakeries within easy reach) and for the structure itself, not brand new from the outside but inside a truly welcoming environment, room furnishings very cute and well cared for in detail.\nA special compliment goes to the managers. Available to provide directions for movements, places to eat, very easy-going, international also in their relationships with foreigners. Good guys, very nice. Greetings to Idefix.

We stayed 3 days in Rapallo and the Hotel San Desiderio is the best one can expect, very good quality-price ratio and the kindness of Marco and Filippo is enviable even to the most starred establishments. Then, at the reception, there is Idefix, a very friendly and docile big dog. I recommend to all people, especially those with pets, like us, to choose this structure for their stay, in the room we even found a little bed and bowls with water and cookies for our "furry son", couldn't ask for more.
