Hotels in Riviera Est, Italy

Riviera Est hugs Italy's Ligurian coast, boasting a Mediterranean climate with mild winters (50°F/10°C) and warm summers (80°F/27°C). It's famous for the colorful Cinque Terre villages and the yacht-filled harbor of Portofino. In spring, you can hike the coastal path from Monterosso to Vernazza, while summer invites swimming in the Ligurian Sea at Paraggi Beach. The eastern side offers rugged trails and quiet coves, whereas the west near Santa Margherita Ligure has elegant promenades and waterfront seafood restaurants. Winters are perfect for exploring the 17th-century Sanctuary of Montallegro without crowds, and autumn lets you join grape harvests at hillside vineyards in the Riviera di Levante.
