We stayed here for a night on a bike trip in the area and we couldn’t be happier. Yes, as many say, the rooms are “basic” but for 80€ a night for two, this is excellent value for money! The room is clean and comfortable, and we had great rest. I also recommend to take breakfast, there was a great variety of choices. Safe storage room for bikes was also great. Mostly, we appreciated the kind and super helpful receptionist. We felt very welcomed. We hope to be back and will recommend this place to stay in the area for all our friends.

A traditional hotel close to the old town with phantastic views across the valley to sky-high mountains. Very friendly staff, several excellent local restaurants ('grotti') down the street. Reliable daily room-service keeps the place perfectly clean. The Crimea's own eatery, Il Locale, is the top place to eat in Chiavenna in my view.

Same as above. Traditional also means that the place is a little run-down and could do with a makeover. The attractive restaurants are full of guests until deep into the night, and the Italian way of celebrating with friends makes sure you won't find much quiet before midnight. The single room I had was basically furnished. One little thing that might improve comfort would be to add a soap-dish to the shower. But this is my personal grudge with almost all hotels: what are you supposed to do with the soap when you're not whipping up foam?

Very convenient location, just a few minutes walking from the train station. My room's balcony had a great view to the park in front of the hotel. The price is reasonable. The staff was very acomodating when I informed them I'd check-in late.

The hotel's bar works late into the night, and noise can be heard, so light sleepers might have trouble resting. It's not the worst, but noticeable. Sound insulation in general could be better.

We really loved this hotel. The location was perfect as it was near the train station (1 minute by foot), the bed was super comfortable, the employees were very friendly and helpful. This place has a lot of charm and heart, as does the city. We would probably return.

The location is very central, just a short walk to the old town and pretty much right next to the train station. The view from my room window was nice. The reception staff was nice and helpful. There was a secure(ish, anyway) bike storage available.

The central location meant some noise outside during the night and the sound proofing didn't quite manage to cut it out. The breakfast was decidedly Italian, and those not into sweets will find it rather lacking (of course, this is Italy, so don't pretend to be surprised). The bathroom was quite old-fashioned and taking a shower was a bit of a chore. Keeping the floor from getting wet proved impossible.

Located a couple of minutes walk from the station and 5 minutes walk from the old town. Lovely views of the hills from the windows. Room had everything you needed. Clean and tidy and perfect for our needs.

There was no shower screen on Bath so water would go everywhere if you stood up to shower. Room got a little warm during the night when the shutters were closed but window open. It was only low 20's so could imagine it could get hotter in warmer temperatures.

The hotel is on the way to Switzerland with a free parking, very convenient They have nice terrace and warm rooms. However, choose queen beds room, cause twin room has tiny window only.

There’s no kettle and all those things

Location is superb, rooms are a little bit outdated but the place has its charms and everything is clean. Try the restaurant downstairs: really good! But above all: the staff is really amazing. Super friendly and helpful, they really make your stay. Big thank you to all staff at Hotel Crimea!

The rooms could get an update. Advice: would put a tall mirror in the rooms and skip the douche curtain. But these are minor points really, overall had a very pleasant stay.

Very nice designed room, quiet inside room, amazing view, friendly staff, free parking near hotel, late check in before midnight. Good value for the money.

Water little bit licking when you get shower

Last minute booking since, all the train where cancelled because of a protest, we stayed at this hotel, very close to the train station. Great view and from the room, walking distance to all nice restaurants.
