Hotel Jolly Roger

Our four night stay in July 2023 couldn't have been better. The location next to the beach is superb, and only a short stroll away from the Pietra Ligure town center. The hotel's atmosphere in the common areas is very modern and up to date, the rooms are adequate, with A/C working fine. Breakfast is served from a wide selection of options, everything prepared with fresh ingredients. While the breakfast room is friendly and spacious, the absolute highlight is the possibility to take your tray up to the roof terrace with is commanding view over the Mediterranean. The hotel also serves dinner on the roof, another great experience. (The grilled burgers were excellent!) The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, always ready to help. The car park is a short 300 m walk from the hotel, in a quiet residential area, gated (not guarded), away from the street, and seems very secure. There is the possibility to briefly park the car in front of the hotel for checking in and out. WiFi works perfectly, with ca. 20 MBit/s download speed. I (unfortunately) had to participate in a three hour teleconference during my stay, and the connection was smooth and worked very well.

The street between the hotel and the sea is quite busy, and sleeping with the window open is impossible. But then, that is not the hotel's fault, and the windows are sound-proof and the A/C does its job. There could be more electricity outlets (esp. near the nightstands) for charging the usual stuff one carries around these days.

The room with sea view was very nice and spacious, we also liked the balcony. Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. Even we arrived late in the night, outside of reception hours, they did their best to welcome us. Breakfast was excellent, there was an open buffet which they were preparing your plates upon your request. Selection was finely prepared. Also definitely try the roof restaurant, the view is marvellous especially during the sunset times. Wi-Fi connection was quite stable.

There are two points which could be better. The parking space provided by the hotel was on the back street, so you have to walk some time after leaving the car. This was mainly because of the parking issue in Pietra Ligure, not because of the hotel I guess and not a big problem. Second is access to the sea. There are private places called "bagni" and they are fully booked (at least in August). So you can't find any sunbeds and umbrellas around. In order to swim, you have to walk 400m parallel to the sea and use the public section of the beach. There are no sunbeds and umbrellas available here. This is where "Chiosco al Mare" is located, which is also operated by the hotel.

loved it was super clean and welcoming to my dog. many other guests had dogs as do the managers of the hotel. cleaning staff very helpful. breakfast was super nice, especially since I think it is ALL made in house - from breads to cakes and focaccia and more

wish the hotel had its own parking but there is no space. That being said, the parking wasn't too far, just weird to find with one way streets and some construction blocking parts of the other side of the street. The hotel did their best giving me instructions and a map... even with that AND my GPS it took me at least 1/2 hour to find the entrance. One one side the entrance is a one way street so you can't enter there... you can actually, but I tried to be legal. On the other side, the access is at the end of the post office parking lot I think... the parking lot behind has a construction area where the scaffold covers the tiny street/alley. I didn't realize I could drive through there until I saw someone else do it.

New property & well fitted. The opportunity to eat breakfast up on the 6 th floor roof terrace is amazing. Opposite hotel across road is an immaculately maintenance beach area with beds. Although Hotel not located at far end of the town, the walk along to centre is pleasant stroll only 1/2 km away approx. friendly welcoming staff

the hotel is sandwiched exactly between main Road in front and railway line immediately behind meaning expect some noise especially with windows opening sitting on balcony. Room 301 our room perfect example of this. nicely furnished but avoid. this room was given as an upgrade but I felt and saw no advantage. The hotel lift is quite tiny meaning hard to stand in lift with the breakfast tray for even 1 person. The breakfast is a SERVED to you from buffet service rather than self choice , so 1 pick only of what fits onto a tray.

We read about their breakfasts… but to read and to eat - principally different. Sure, you should come and try it! They are unbelievably tasty! Imagine, you are sitting in a cozy room with a sea view on a sunny morning and eating everything delicious you can ask for breakfast! The rooms are light, comfortable, and clean. The sheets and towels are clean and fluffy. We booked rooms with a sea view - it was pretty good to wake up with the sound of the surf… The hotel is undoubtedly recommended due to its location and room conditions and mostly because of breakfast!

The only thing that was not really good was the high-speed trains on the back side of the building.

the location was good and specially if you take the sea view. the staff at the desk were friendly and helpful.

the breakfast was ok but the lady serving the menu wasn't changing her gloves,she goes and clean the dishes, even wiped her nose with a tissue and keeped same glive to serve. the use the same tool to pick the meat and cheese which i don't like. the morning service was really slow. i prefer if it self service and for coffe and eggs we get served.

The room and bathroom were spacious. Thankful the hotel had a parking lot. Not beside the hotel, but a short walking distance. Breakfast was very good and all the food very fresh. Staff was fluent in English.

If it is your first time in Liguria, do not hesitate to park in front of the hotel and put the four-way lights on the car. There is no way to find parking around the hotel during beach hours.

Location is great, just in front of the beach. Nice terrace for drinks and dinner. Fresh and good quality breakfast. Hotel car park four minutes walk.

It is a pity that the hotel does not have a private lido for the hotel guests, nor discounted rates with the lidos on the beach.

Rooftop terrace: perfect place for a breakfast. Relaxed check-out time.

Missing access to the sea (due to construction area). Breakfast buffet. Although tasty, could be organized as a Sweden table: it would be faster and less embarrassing. A minor thing: not possible to find a kettle and tea at night.

good furniture in the bedroom, very cosy common spaces, fantastic breakfast

difficult to park, the public slots were unavailable for work in progress but even if available are on the opposite side, on a very busy road.
