We stayed two nights at the Hotel Punta Mesco and found the staff to be wonderful. The location is not the best - it is on a side street in the newer part of Monterosso and not in the historic center or overlooking the water. The rooms are a little worn down, but they are clean and have nice bathrooms... more

We were very happy with Hotel Punta Mesco. It is very clean, modern and has everything you could want in a hotel by the beach. While it might not have sea views, it is a 2 minute walk to the beach, is near a small super market and laundry and includes a pretty decent breakfast. The young man at the... more

Before going to this hotel I heard great reviews. That the location was excellent and the hotel was beautiful. Well my wife ended up totally disagreeing with these reviews. The hotel is in the new part of town at night. It is only a 10-15 minute walk to the old town, but this place was pretty empty. No action at... more

This really is a great find for a hotel in the seemingly space-restricted Cinque Terre. The breakfast is one of the best that we had during a 12 day vacation through Italy and France, and the staff really make it top notch. Are the rooms big and stylish? No, but the point of staying Cinque Terre is get out and... more

It was our first trip down to Cinque Terra and stayed at the Hotel Punta Mesco for 4 nights and what a delightful experience. Hotel has a great location (only 5 mins walking to the beach and to the boardwalk area, trails and train station), a fabulous staff that was helpful and secured parking. We had a ground floor room... more

We booked last minute and were able only to stay one night but enjoyed our stay. The hotel was clean, staff was very friendly, and we had a great breakfast. The hotel location is in the newer part of Monterosso (both new and old areas are good places to stay), and is conveniently located near the train station (3 minute... more

Relatively comfortable beds, little room in rooms, cot for triple bed, but friendly staff, clean and quiet rooms. Breakfast was included and was the average European continental breakfast but with made to order coffees as a nice touch. Good location in the new part of town. Only disappointment was that there were no good restaurants nearby and the hotel's restaurant... more

My husband and I traveled to Cinque Terre for the first time this past June. We stayed in Hotel Punta Mesco and it was a fantastic idea. The hotel is very cute, the personnel SUPER friendly and knowledgeable and the location cannot be surpassed since it is very close to the beach (1.5 blocks) and from the train station (about... more

We loved both the town and the hotel. It is a simple hotel but very clean and the staff are terrific. It is a 10 minute walk from the beach and probably 20 from the old town but both are nice walks. We went to see 4 of the 5 towns and liked this one the best. Lots of nice... more
