We were so happy with Pensione Sorriso! We were greeted on our arrival, given lots of information about the hotel, and shown our room. The staff member was excellent. I believe her name was Elenora? She was so incredible and helpful Friday & Saturday. We saw her working so hard for every guest to make sure they were happy and had everything they needed. We were so impressed by her. We will come back here for future vacations.
Amenities were good. Great breakfast. Noisy next to train track but we knew about the location.
One star because during check in, the staff tried to trick us into paying extra 25euro to upgrade to a different room in order to get 2 bath towels, even though we booked a room for 2 adults. We ended up getting 2 towels anyways but it was very dishonest of them to say we had to upgrade in order to get two towels we should have gotten instead of one.

Lovely terrace off our room excellent location from vernazza station
We really enjoyed our stay here. Sure, it's not overly fancy but sometimes simple is just fine. The beds and pillows, as others have noted, are pretty firm but not unmanageable. The staff is great. They went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. Great location close to the train. Would stay again.

What a fantastic 4 day stay. I’ve been to Vernazza many times, however this was my best accommodation. Great service in all accounts, staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble. Great roof top terrace and breakfast was so yummy. I will definitely stay there again.

The breakfast was the best part. We have been traveling all over Italy. This was the first breakfast with fresh croissants. The choices were fresh and delicious, not prepackaged.
Location was quiet and easy to find

The service was good. Only complaints is that it does not have an elevator if you have lots of luggage and the room including the bathroom is very small.
Close to the train station and the Main Street of Vernazza. Our hosts were exceptional as they organized their time to carry our luggage back and forth to the train. The elevator at the station is out and the many deep stone steps made this all the more helpful. The room is tiny, as is the bathroom. Hooks to hang things would be helpful. The bed is futon style near the floor. Breakfast was filling and lovely— lots of pastry.
My friend and I loved our stay at Pensione Sorriso. The staff are friendly and helpful, our room and bathroom were clean, and we were happy with the in-room AC unit which worked very well. The breakfast buffet in the morning was one of our favorite perks, the food and cappuccinos were delicious and the outdoor dining area is very peaceful. The location is unbeatable, a quick walk up the hill from the Vernazza train stop. It was a perfect home base for exploring Cinque Terre, we were able to visit all 5 towns during our 2.5 days and Vernazza ended up being one of our favorites.
Evelyn at the reception wear many hats and is just amazing....thank you for all of your hospitality and service!
Just to be fair this property is right next to train it was fine for us but if your a light sleeper just beware.
We enjoyed our stay at the Pensione Sorriso. The hotel is clean and modern for Italian standards. The bedroom and bathroom are pretty small but we managed just fine. The staff were great. Our reservation included breakfast which had several options to choose from.
The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because there are lots of stairs to climb just to access the lobby from the street. This was not a problem for us, but if you have any type of mobility issues it may be extremely difficult to access the lobby and your room. On the plus side, the location is just steps away from the train station.
Nice little room for one night in Vernazza. Comfy bed and great shower pressure! It was very tight in the room but for 1 night it worked out fine! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Great location!
The service and friendliness of the staff was amazing! Everything was spotless and very well maintained. The setting was beautiful and the location could not have been better as it was only a minute’s walk from the train. We will be back!
