About Eight Hotel Paraggi
Just about everything at Eight Hotel revolves around the bay of Paraggi — and rightly so. This private bay on the Italian Riviera commands attention, with its sandy beach framed by dramatic, rugged cliffs. Eight Hotel’s location offers guests a rare sense of exclusivity that’s hard to fault. Yet, focusing solely on the water, sunsets, and views would risk overlooking the hotel itself, which certainly deserves its share of the spotlight. The twelve rooms are exquisitely appointed, offering a refined and welcoming atmosphere. We’re particularly fond of those with a romantic nook beneath a skylight, complete with a perfectly set table for two. The private deck with a Jacuzzi overlooking the bay is a highlight as well. Fresh flowers add subtle touches of elegance, while an overall sense of lightness prevails — thanks to ample windows and a tasteful use of fabrics, from flowing ceiling drapes to delicate bed canopies. Picturesque Portofino, with its colorful villas nestled among the rocky hillsides, is just a short shuttle ride away. How to get there: Eight Hotel Paraggi is approximately 2 miles (3 kilometers) to/from Santa Margherita Ligure train station and 27 miles (44 kilometers) from Genoa Cristoforo Colombo airport.
