Opened in 2009, the three-and-a-half-pearl Park Hotel Argento is a contemporary and locally minded property nestled on the hillside. The quiet location, easy access to town and Cinque Terre, and great views over Levanto draw families and couples seeking the hotel's relaxing vibe. All 47 rooms are soundproofed, huge, and spotless (if slightly plain in terms of decor), plus come with minibars, satellite TVs, and showers or tubs; some rooms add large balconies or terraces. Prices in the hotel's hydrotherapy spa, bar, and restaurant (no lunch service) are reasonable and freebies include an extensive breakfast buffet, Wi-Fi, shuttle bus to and from town, and parking. Travelers looking for a spot closer to town or with self-catering services should check out Villa Margherita By the Sea.

The mid-range Oasi Hotel is a 14-room boutique property in the center of Levanto that is popular for its excellent location and free breakfast. Rooms here are spacious, simple, and contemporary, with AC, minibars, slippers, and flat-screen TVs with cable, while compact bathrooms have small stall showers, bidets, and toiletry kits with toothbrushes. Garden terraces and balconies with hill or garden views are available. This family-owned spot is slim on the features, but has freebies like all-day cakes, coffee, and tea, plus free bike rental, beach towels, and Wi-Fi. The traditional restaurant serves made-to-order dishes mostly featuring fresh seafood and local products, while breakfast brings in fresh baked goods, smoothies, cooked eggs, and yogurt. For a similar spot but with more traditional charm, check out Villa Margherita By the Sea, though you'll sacrifice a bit on breakfast.

The family-run, mid-range Hotel Al Terra di Mare overlooks the sea, and provides a great base for couples looking to explore Cinque Terre. The homey and charmingly decorated property is laid out across multiple buildings, and features a massive terrace with water views connecting the units. Amenities are simple (a small bar and outdoor swimming pool), but the owners show a lot of care in making what's available rather lovely, with touches like homemade jam and local charcuterie in the evenings. Some complain its location is too far from town -- the hotel shuttle only does one free roundtrip -- but for those who plan to visit Cinque Terre, it's a solid setting. For those who would prefer to be in the town center, Oasi Hotel might be a good option, though it lacks the Al Terra di Mare's charm.

The 12-room mid-range Villa Margherita by the Sea is a family-run bed-and-breakfast in the quaint village of Levanto, just a five-minute walk from the town center and beach.

The historic hotel has an additional lovely terrace for all guests to use and a handsome garden as well. Wi-Fi, breakfast, and on-site parking (a rarity in this part of Italy) are all free. There are no elevators here, though, and steps encompass the property, which may pose a problem for guests with mobility issues.
