The boutique style Hotel Palace really is something special, and you can expect a very warm welcome from its owners Elisabeth and Loris and their attentive staff. The location is idyllic - on the beachfront, yet with the old town with its selection of shops, cafes and restaurants and weekly market and sea front promenade on its doorstep. We will take over the hotel for our bridge holiday and accommodate up to 15 tables in the bridge room.
Diano Marina is a great base from which to explore this fascinating area full of quaint coastal towns. Walkers are spoilt for choice with coastal walks to Imperia with its Olive Museum and medieval Cervo with its winding cobbled streets, colourful houses and famous music school. Walk inland and you’ll discover the hilltop village of Diano Castello. If you wish to explore further there is an excellent rail service along the Italian and French Coast giving you unlimited access to villages and towns.
