Hotel berhampiran Caletta di Albana, La Spezia

Posizione perfetta, a pochi minuti dalla stazione, dal mare, dalle fermate dell'autobus e dei battelli. Si trova nel centro storico con tutti i negozi a pochi passi. Le camere sono carine, completamente ristrutturate e il materasso è molto comodo. Pulizia ottima e una nota particolare a Sara e ai proprietari che sono molto gentili, disponibili ed onesti. Non vediamo l'ora di ritornare! Consigliatissimo

I loved this stay a lot more then some of the hotels in my trip, felt nice having your own key to a building. The room really surprised me, it was really nice and also in such a good spot of la spezia. La spezia surprised me, I was nervous as it seemed a bit rough around the edges but honestly such a lovely stay with trendy bars in every alleyway, just got to explore the streets. 10 min walk to the station which is right on the main Cinque Terre line going to the towns, I was a pro by the end of my stay. I felt like this was the place I actually met other Italians as the cinque Terre can be super congested with tourists so I really recommend staying here instead of one of the 5 towns and making base doing day trips to the villages. The reception were really lovely and helped you try and understand the area before letting you go off to your apartment room. I didn't spend much time in the room but I slept really well and all the facilities worked and there was information in the hallway if needed about ferry times and spots to go to. La Spezia was also one of the more affordable parts of Italy I went to with some really good food and drinks.

The hotel’s decor gave me quirky, artsy vibes the moment I walked in. Artwork. Plants. Little knickknacks. Even a fish tank. Our room had a small desk and clothes rack. And a refrigerator over the desk that took me a while to realize it was a refrigerator. Another chair would’ve also been nice, since sitting options were limited to one desk chair or bed. Ac was off and it was unfortunate since it was cloudy and humid the entire time we were there. Also, no window screens, which seems to be the norm in Italy. The hotel only serves breakfast, and they do it so well. Excellent selection of pastries, cold meats and cheeses, yogurt, even fresh baked bread. Its close proximity to the city center is a plus, as well as the fact that the first village in Cinque Terre (Riomaggiore) is only 7 minutes away by train.

Loved the location and it was very convenient and easy to checkin. The place was super clean and had all that we needed for a one night stay. We were also allowed to dropp off our luggage earlier which was very convenient. The bathroom was separate from the room but it was super clean.

Affittacamere del Golfo was the perfect place for us to base ourselves for a few days exploring the Cinque Terre. We loved La Spezia and are glad we chose this city instead of staying in one of the actual Cinque Terre towns. Affittacamere is a ten minute walk to the La Spezia train station where frequent trains run frequently to the towns. Staying in La Spezia you have many great choices for shopping and dining without the crush of crowds and limited restaurant options. Our accommodations were well-appointed and comfortable: Affittacamere del Golfo is a collection of rooms with a lobby, in a typical older multi-family apartment building. Our room was well-maintained and clean, the bed was comfortable (and the bathroom was also clean and in full working order). There were no problems with water pressure or availability of hot water. Elisa, the proprietor, was friendly and helpful and always more than happy to get us situated and oriented. We asked for local dining off the beaten track and she directed us to a place near the water where we had amazing seafood every night. Affittacamere del Golfo is not fancy but it was exactly what we needed and we would stay there again without hesitation.

The hotel offers easy access, and the on-site parking is a major convenience, making our stay hassle-free. The rooms are amazing with the different categories and great options for families as well and everything looked really new! The hotel staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, from the reception to the room service and housekeeping teams. The breakfast was outstanding, with a wide variety of options, particularly for those with specific dietary needs. I highly recommend the Sunset boat tour—it's a fantastic way to explore the region and take in the breathtaking scenery.

I enjoyed my stay here. The staff was available until 8PM. They had a great location right next to the train and within walking distance of a great nightlife and restaurants. La Spezia is a cute city. It's only a 7 minute train ride to Cinque Terra villages. The shower needs a door, but was spacious and had warm water. I did experience some problems with vaping/ electronic cigarette smoking on site. Unfortunately, some of it seemed to be coming from the cleaning crew. Hotels really need to understand how bad this problem is and how negatively it affects guests, especially people with asthma.

We stayed here and was really happy with the location for the most part. It's on top of a hill, so if you are on foot, a taxi is best. Shopping and supermarkets are very close as is the ferry to Cinque Terra, you can walk to both in less than ten minutes. Rooftop bar is excellent, great views. There is also buses and restaurants close as well. The only thing we didn't like, on each floor is a common terrace, smokers use this and the smell does waft into the rooms. Also I was very surprised by a guest vaping at reception talking to staff and no one challenged him to not smoke indoors, even though there are signs everywhere. It is value for money and the staff were very helpful.
