Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
Eight Hotel Portofino is a small, contemporary boutique on a calm street a couple of minutes from the piazzetta, part of Small Luxury Hotels of the World. Rooms are bright and modern with a private garden and a jacuzzi under chestnut trees, and it suits guests who want a village base without Belmond prices. Dogs and cats up to 7 kg are welcome, one per room, with a bed and bowls provided on request. Pets aren't allowed in the restaurant, beach club, gym or spa, and can't be left alone in the room.

Why it's in the collection

A scenic trail climbs from near the hotel over the headland and down to San Fruttuoso, and the free shuttle runs to Paraggi beach in minutes. The quiet side street makes for calm comings and goings with a nervous dog.

Best suited for

One dog or cat up to 7 kg per room, no pets in the restaurant, spa, gym or beach club, and none left alone.
