The 12 rooms at the upscale La Torretta hotel are beautiful with such elegant touches as four-poster beds and tall floral headboards. With a free evening aperitif and a couple of terraces to watch the sun set, it's a particularly good pick for a romantic stay. The bed and breakfast is located on the church square in Manarola, one of five fishing villages that make up Cinque Terre. The marina and train station are a short walk downhill, but there are several stairs to climb at the hotel, which may make it a challenge to navigate for some travelers.

The 12-room Hotel Marina Piccola is a three-pearl boutique hotel in the center of Manarola. It's an easy five-minute walk from the train station, and the ferries for access to all of Cinque Terre are just down the street. Multiple restaurants, bars, and shops are within walking distance. The family-run hotel is packed with charm, and views of the sea are spectacular from several spots. The modern rooms are also a nice change of pace in a region where plenty are old and dated. Guests rave about the free breakfast, as well as the nearby restaurant run by the same family. Another option in Manarola is La Torretta, where rooms are larger and more upscale, but it's not as close to the sea and there's a fee for Wi-Fi.

Hotel Ca D'Andrean is a charming mid-range option with an almost unbeatable location in the heart of Manarola. The hotel was originally built as a residence and winery in the 1800s, and the original mill is still on display next to the hotel's private garden. Today, the hotel has 10 fresh and contemporary rooms (a welcome modern addition to Cinque Terre) and serves an Italian continental breakfast for a fee. There's a small bar for evening drinks, but little else in the way of public spaces. Most guests (almost all international and Italian tourists) spend their days exploring. It's a five-minute walk to the train station, beach, and trail head from the hotel. For more traditional rooms and a similar location, check rates at the nearby La Torretta Hotel.

Ca' de Baran isn't a traditional hotel. Instead, it's a two-pearl collection of contemporary rooms and apartments scattered around the gorgeous and walkable village of Manarola in Cinque Terre. Rooms on offer range from full apartments for six people, to studio rooms with a shared balcony. Housekeeping is provided daily and each of the units has a coffeemaker and bottled water. There's a central hotel office with a staffed reception desk and space to store luggage, but no other hotel features are offered. Note that the village is quite crowded (and noisy) in the busy season. As an alternative, Hotel Ca D'Andrean is also located in the village -- and it has a quieter location and breakfast service.
