Great location and super helpful host, Andrea.
Andrea was very helpful with giving me all the necessary information and made my stay very comfortable. Very convenient location close to all the restaurants, trail hikes, and even a laundry , pharmacy and market! The only suggestion would be to blacken out a window which lets alot of street lighting in in the night. All in all, great value and comfortable!

Wow what a stay. Not sure why it’s classified as a 1 star. Andrea was an amazing host at this quaint little hotel. He goes out of his way to go through all details of the area and had recommendations for dining and things to do.
The rooms are immaculately clean. I would highly recommend to anyone.
Thank you for a great stay.

Andrea the host is very friendly and helpful. He helped us connect to Wifi right at check-in and showed us his files for information on dining, hiking, the train schedule. He even helped us get our hiking permits to use the trail to Vernassa which was harder than we expected since it was wet after the recent rains. So much to enjoy in Monterosso. Our room had a fridge and a tea kettle which was great. Bed was super comfy and Andrea made sure I had extra pillows that I requested in my reservation. I would recommend Albergo de Carugio 100%. Only consideration is you must climb some steps to get to the Albergo so if you are mobility limited, it might be a bit of a problem, but otherwise we were very happy here for our 3 night stay. Very easy walk to the train station.

The steps were a challenge with our suitcases
But the proprietor was extremely happy, welcoming and friendly and wanted to speak good English to us. Very helpful indeed and carried our suitcases down the stairs when we left.

This was a great property for our trip. Understand it is not a full service hotel, but the caretaker/manager is extremely nice and helpful and the location is wonderful. It is a 10-15 minute walk from the train and there are numerous restaurants within 5 minutes or less. If you’re looking to stay in Cinque Terre I would recommend Monterosso above all of them. Much quieter and pleasant with amazing views. We hiked to all cities except Riomaggiore (due to weather along the hike) and would rate Monterosso above all others to stay. One downside is that there is an auto shop on the street level which was just above our window so in the mornings it would get loud. If you’re up and out early this is not a factor but the time difference had us sleeping to 9-10am during our stay. You will get maps and trip suggestions at check in and any questions you need answered Andrea will be happy to assist.

If I could give 'Staff and Service' more than 5 stars I would! Andrea went above and beyond to make sure I enjoyed my stay. It may not be the fanciest place in Monterosso, but you'll definitely feel at home. I plan to return!

Andrea is a wonderful host at this hotel. So friendly and knows the area very well. Our room was very clean, bed was comfortable, and it was quiet at night for a wonderful night of sleep. Easily the best value from our entire backpacking trip. Highly recommended!

The host, Andrea is exceptional. That on its own made staying at Carugio earn its worth. He communicated all necessary details in advance and leading up to our arrival, including how to access the building if arriving late (trains are always late!). He took every possible effort to ensure our visit to Cinque Terre was optimal, including advice about precise itineraries to visit the 5 towns. No need to plan and in fact I abandoned my own 2-day itinerary having done it 4 times already. Andrea's was not only a nice change for me it is in fact better since it took us into one of the towns to an excellent lunch spot we would never have discovered on our own. The room was perfect, shower quite spacious and all well constructed. Very comfortable. Although a little walk up the main road of the historical side of Monterosso, it was super quiet. This was just what we needed after noisy Rome. I've traveled all over Italy for several years and Andrea has made my list of top hosts. We will stay at Carugio again.
