Hotel Villa Elisa & Spa

Villa Elisa is a very special place and even after 7 days we didn't really want to leave! It is a beautiful house set in lush tropical gardens but with the convenience of being in the middle of Bordighera. From the moment we arrived I knew we would love it. Theresa the hotel cat was a little darling and she made our stay feel cosy and homely. We will miss her very much! The pool is really great and the breakfast was fantastic. I'm gluten free and it was no problem at all. We ate in the garden several times as it was so beautiful. Our bathroom was a little dated and our room wasn't enormous but it had everything we needed and was very pretty. Plus compared to other places it was very reasonably priced! The most special thing though (apart from Theresa of course!) was the people who looked after us. Everyone was warm and welcoming and nothing was a bother. It really made it into a hotel where we will hopefully return again like several other guests in the past! Thank you for making our first time in Bordighera amazing!

A lovely traditional villa now hotel with fabulous swimming pool area with showers and toilets and gardens and a very good spa all at very reasonable prices especially if booked direct! The buffet breakfast is excellent and can be had in your room if you serve yourself and collect on a tray. We booked direct and got a discount on a comfort room (114) with good sized balcony and free spa for an hour each day (best to book). We also booked a very good massage each. The room was adequate and bed comfortable but the shower was a little cramped. The air conditioning was very good. Lunchtime snacks can be ordered near the pool area and the bar is open all hours. The parking is on quite a steep area at the back of the hotel and there are quite a few steps to carry your luggage down . There is a lift in the hotel. The hotel is about a 15 min walk down the hill to the closest restaurants and a little further to the sea front. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. I certainly hope to return again one day.

Lovely hotel with amazing staff. The staff go above and beyond to help guests, especially Carolina. The hotel is set in beautiful gardens and the heated pool and surrounding area is excellent. We stayed in the apartment. It has a living & dining room and kitchen upstairs. Downstairs there is a double room and a twin room as well as a bathroom. Great hotel and staff. Highly recommend.
