Cinque Terra: The Hotel Alternative

Where: Via Fegina, 4, Monterosso, Italy

Ah, Cinque Terra. The quintessential European backpacker experience. Get off the train, walk through one of the five villages, talk to different folks in the gift shops, and find a room in one of the bright, sea sprayed houses.

Wait, what if you don't want to deal? Maybe you are a little older, a little wiser, past the backpacker thing, or maybe you have been there done that, and just want to go back to Cinque Terra without securing a hotel room.

Well, you aren't going to find five star accommodations, however, if you have around ~100€ to spend, look into Hotel Pasquale in Monterosso.

The NY Post Travel section touts Pasquale's dramatic location-perched between the cliffs and the area's only sandy beach.

We like Pasquale's location as well, and though we will always have a soft spot for the "fly by the seat of your pants" Cinque Terra stay, if you must plan ahead, Pasquale sounds like a fine mission control for your five town hike.
