“hilltop B&B where the views and the hospitality can’t be topped”

Altera House is a truly unique and charming little hotel with amazing views from our room and the multiple terraces. When we arrived, Simone met us at the parking lot and even helped us carry our luggage up to the house. Our room was a good size, tastefully furnished and cozy, and there was even a window in the bathroom. In the morning, to our surprise, breakfast—complete with freshly baked croissants—was served on the big sunlit terrace for a great start to the day. Simone also gave us plenty of tips about possible activities and excursions nearby, and there is even the option to book boat tours to Cinque Terre through the hotel, which we are definitely planning for our next stay. The only downside was that our stay felt too short.

“A true gem – amazing location, heartfelt hospitality, and breathtaking views.”

We stayed at Altera House in Ameglia and it was a wonderful experience. The location is absolutely stunning, with wide views over the Apuan Alps. From the rooms, the common spaces, and the terrace you can see the mountains in the distance, with the white marble shimmering like snow. It is a beautiful sight to wake up to, especially as the morning light fills the rooms. The sound of the church bells in the village adds to the charm — very authentic and peaceful. This is not your typical hotel experience. Altera House is run by a team of young people who have only recently started managing the place, and you can really feel the energy and care they put into it. Everything is simple but functional — you have what you need, and if anything is missing, they are always available, happy to listen and quick to help. It feels personal, not like staying in a big anonymous hotel. The atmosphere is warm and genuine, and it’s inspiring to see these young hosts building something with vision and heart. We felt very welcome and looked after. The village itself is charming, and within a short drive you can reach the seaside, enjoy boat tours, or head off for beautiful hikes in the surrounding hills. It is a perfect base for exploring the region while still experiencing the authenticity of an Italian village. For us, waking up to sunshine, mountains, and church bells made it truly special. We would definitely recommend Altera House to anyone looking for a real and heartfelt stay in Liguria

The hotel is new and has a panoramic location. However, there are services that are missing, especially parking, which is in the town and finding a spot is impossible! The path to the property is full of steep steps, so it’s not accessible to everyone. When I raised the issue, I was told we’re in Liguria… but why list parking as a service when it doesn’t exist? After three days we had to request cleaning and a change of bath towels. Basically, there’s never anyone in the hotel. It’s a pity because with more attention and experience it would truly be a great place!
