Head to the Italian region of Liguria and the province of Imperia for a colourful stay. A coastal town in north-west Italy, Sanremo is a highly sought-after destination for its famous market, its local produce and its historical and natural heritage.

Stay in a hotel in Sanremo city centre or close to the main tourist attractions, and live to the rhythm of the Dolce Vita. Between the Villa Ormond park, adorned with palm trees, olive groves and a Japanese garden, the 12th-century San Siro cathedral and its 12 bells, and the Casinò di Sanremo, you will not know where to look, so incredible is each site.

Don't hesitate any longer and enjoy an exceptional holiday in the most popular seaside resort on the coast, with its typically Mediterranean climate.

Your hotel in Sanremo

As soon as you arrive in Sanremo, a stroll around the harbour is a must, before exploring the famous open-air market. For those who particularly love the Italian way of life and bustle, we recommend going on a Saturday morning to find yourself at the heart of a truly unique atmosphere. Shoes, leather goods, textiles, leather and so much more are available to visitors eager to find handcrafted products. Italian vendors contribute greatly to the popularity of this very famous spot, much loved by locals and tourists alike.

Continue to the covered market for a culinary and gourmet overview of Italian specialities. There you will find cured meats, San Daniele ham, pasta in every colour and shape, as well as delicious grissini.

During your stay in a hotel in Sanremo, be sure to savour some of the region's dishes such as focaccia, lasagne, aubergine parmigiana, not forgetting pizza and Italian gelato, before finishing with a delicious cappuccino. Then a visit to the Russian Orthodox church is a must, as are the Palais Bellevue and the Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Coast, an essential site for pilgrims.

Finally, shopping enthusiasts and fashion addicts will be spoilt for choice. The finest French and Italian brands have set up shop in the main street, which can be explored on foot. The promenade and the harbour are perfect for a late-afternoon stroll to admire the colourful buildings, the rococo façades and the rustic fishing boats. Sanremo is all about the sweetness of Italian life, and you need to take your time to discover it around every alleyway. And if you have time left, extend your stay by following the coast and the seafront towards Ventimiglia.
