Rissu Nice Studio
A cosy and affordable hideaway in the heart of Vernazza
Rissu Nice Studio is a bright and welcoming studio apartment located in the very heart of Vernazza, just a few steps from the train station, the marina and the village’s main street. Recently refurbished in winter 2023, it offers a neat, modern and comfortable space, ideal for travellers looking for an authentic stay in the Cinque Terre at a reasonable rate.
Situated on the ground floor (the first of the building on the window side), the studio enjoys a quiet position along one of Vernazza’s characteristic back lanes, away from the crowds of day-trippers yet extremely close to all essential services, shops, cafés and restaurants. Its windows open onto a curious and charming corner of village life, creating a peaceful atmosphere rarely found in such a central location.
The studio features a comfortable double bed, a practical kitchenette for light meals and a private bathroom. Climate control is ensured by a Dyson Hot & Cool Purifier, providing both heating and cooling throughout the year. A dedicated internet line guarantees a stable Wi-Fi connection during your stay.
The name Rissu, meaning sea urchin in the Vernazza dialect, reflects the spirit of this hidden little pearl: simple, genuine and surprisingly pleasant. It is an ideal choice for solo travellers or couples who wish to experience Vernazza and the Cinque Terre without sacrificing comfort, while keeping an eye on their budget.
The property and our check-in point are located close to the railway station, just a 3-minute walk away. Guests arriving by car should note that a public car park is located above the village, approximately 1,200 metres from the pedestrian area. A shuttle service connects the car park to the village entrance, followed by a short walk of about five minutes to our concierge office. Advance reservation of the car park is strongly recommended; the approximate cost is €20 per day and contact details will be provided after booking.
Small and medium-sized dogs are welcome, with a supplement and in accordance with house rules.
With its combination of tranquillity, central location and essential comforts, Rissu Nice Studio is a smart and enjoyable base for discovering the very best of Vernazza and the Cinque Terre at an accessible price.
