璀璨：波托菲諾的燦爛舞台

My jaw dropped when I read that the hotel opened way back in 1902—it's incredible that it’s still this elegant and exclusive today. The way the description captures that old-world glamour and the jet-set history makes me feel like I'm already there.

The hotel itself is the whole reason to come to Portofino — staying right in that little seaside village beats any day trip. You can feel the century of history in the place, and the jet-set crowd it's drawn since 1902 somehow makes the view even better.

We booked a room with a sea view and the view over the harbor at sunset was worth every penny. The hotel's history since 1902 gives it a character you just don't find in newer places.
