The location was perfect. Just a quick walk to the city center and a 2 minute walk to the train station. We were traveling to the Cinque Terre and it was perfect. Clean, nice staff.

La Spezia is one of those typical cities of the Liguria Region where colourful houses cover hills and cliffs, providing panoramic views over the sea. Thousands of years of history and a heart open towards the sea have shaped the character of this town surrounded by the 'Cinque Terre'.
Located on the coast of the namesake gulf, its proximity to Genoa has greatly influenced its development and culture. Take a walk uphill from the harbour, and admire the display of architectonic styles in the Old Town. Some of the best hotels in La Spezia are located here, while elegant guesthouses and villas with gulf views can be found in the highest areas.
Must-see sites in the city are the 13th-century Church of Our Lady of the Assumption and St George’s Castle. The ‘Sea Festival’ is organized every summer, and its highlight is the rowing competition ‘Palio del Golfo’, a race between the 13 villages of the gulf. Departing from the port of La Spezia, boats can take you to the enchanted ‘Cinque Terre’.
The harbour is a 15-minute walk from La Spezia Central Station, and Genoa’s Cristoforo Colombo Airport is 105 km away. While planning your trip, check out Booking.com’s accommodation deals in La Spezia.

It is not your usual touristy place but has great access to Cinque Terre Tours and is well connected to Tuscany and Genoa. The old town is full of great shops that sell high-quality goods at very reasonable prices. Lovely seaside walks and the opportunity to do plenty of sightseeing, and the town felt really safe. We had amazing pizza, amazing coffee and a wonderful time.

Easy access for trains, marina to take ferry up the villages of Cinque Terre and then took train/trails back. Taking ferry up affords great views. La Spezia offered a variety of restaurants and was less frenetic than staying at most of the villages of Cinque.

La Spezia is a great centre to explore the area.
La Spezia is a great centre to explore the area. The town itself is a working town, some good shopping and great nightlife. We should have gone on a tour or something ourselves to get the history of the town but we din’t have enough time as we were exploring the area of the Terre and south of La Spezia. It was a central location for us to explore and it suited us well. Get a boat trip to the 5 villages if you’re doing this, you get better views of the landscape, although train is probably quicker, but if training it, get a return, the queues are long at the smaller stations.

La Spezia is a vibrant city with many attractions, including the castle, markets, and port. There is an excellent regular train service to Cinque Terre and ferries to Porto Venere and Terrizzo. As it is Italy, there are always restaurants and cafes nearby, as well as good supermarkets and pharmacies. When I left, I was already yearning to return, and I definitely will, as there is far more to explore and enjoy. It's worth a visit.

We loved La Spezia.
We loved La Spezia. It is clean, pretty, with many good restaurants. It is easy to travel to all of Cinque Terre by train or ferry. Our hotel “Chiodo Luxury Rooms” was excellent. Our receptionist Michela was outstanding.

It was just the right amount of busy.
It was just the right amount of busy. We came from Rome so La Spezia was a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle of Rome. The town itself had much to offer with places to eat, shop, and walk. I especially liked the wharf. There is a long walkway along the water front with benches to sit and enjoy the sounds of the sea. The reason we stayed in La Spezia was to see the Cinque Terre towns by boat, which I recommend if you are short on time.

The Poet hotel is in a great location. Close to the main strip, train and ferry for Cinque Terre. It is a bit different to other places we have stayed in Italy. Shops and restaurants open and close earlier. The room we stayed in was spacious and modern. We had a lovely terrace that we made good use of. The shower is the best one we've had this trip. Great shower head. The bed was very comfortable too.The breakfast was great. Lots of choice and great coffee. The staff were very friendly and helpful
Our visit to La Spezia included a day long trip on a ferry boat along coast and visit to several of the "5 towns", hence the hotel selection a bit out of the entertainment streets... but still a brief walk. The ferry boat tour was excellent.
Andrea was a very helpful and obliging host. Location near train station and eateries was superb. The room itself and the building was well secured. La Spezia is a worthwhile stop for travellers.
Everything. The ladies were super nice and helpful. They also have room to leave your bags which is very nice. Will comeback again to this hotel if I go to La spezia again.
The hotel is located right opposite the central train station in La Spezia and within easy reach of the centre of town. The staff are very helpful and friendly.
