Most first-time visitors choose the Lungomare area for its flat terrain, sea views, and proximity to beaches and restaurants. Here is a breakdown of where to stay in Bordighera, area by area, with specific hotel recommendations. See our for more details. See our for more details.

Where to Stay in Bordighera: Lungomare and Seafront
The seafront district offers the highest concentration of hotels in Bordighera, from Belle Epoque grand dames to modern four-star properties. This is where you stay for direct beach access, sea-view rooms, and a flat walk to all restaurants and shops on Corso Italia. Prices are highest here, especially at beachfront properties with pools. The area stretches about 1.5 km along the Lungomare Argentina, and the entire zone is wheelchair-accessible. Check our Bordighera weather guide for more details.

Where to Stay in Bordighera: Bordighera Alta (Old Town)
The medieval old town offers a completely different experience from the seafront. You stay in renovated apartments inside centuries-old stone buildings, often with vaulted ceilings and original architectural details. There are no large hotels here , accommodation is almost entirely holiday apartments and a couple of small B-and-Bs. The uphill location and lack of vehicle access mean you will carry groceries and luggage up steps. In exchange, you get the quietest, most atmospheric part of Bordighera at the lowest prices.
