Hotel berhampiran La Spezia Brewing Company, La Spezia

Fantastic location in La Spezia at 100m from the train to visit Cinqueterre. You can also book the private parking and the staff are very nice and give you plenty of information and recommendations. They even gave us an iron when we asked for it. The only con would be that our bathroom was little and you had to close the door in order to get to the washbasin.

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 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.

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.

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

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.

We have returned this week from a great 6 night stay at the NH Hotel La Spezia in Liguria Italy. Our room was a recently renovated Junior Suite on the 8th floor at the front of the Hotel, which gave us a great panoramic view of the whole of the Bay of La Spezia. The suite consisted of a large bedroom with an electronic safe situated in the built in wardrobe, a separate lounge with tea and coffee making facilities and a mini fridge. Wifi was available throughout the Hotel. The bathroom was modern and clean with a large walk-in shower cubicle. There were wall mounted televisions in both the lounge and the bedroom. We had breakfast in the dining room on the ground floor during our stay which included a great choice of hot and cold food and drinks. There is also a small bar on the ground floor and food is also available from the restaurant. The location of the Hotel is very good overlooking public gardens, the sea promenade, Cruise Terminal and Ferries to the nearby islands and the villages of the Cinque Terre National Park. It is a thirty minute walk from Spezia Centrale Station to the Hotel. There is a large choice of bars and restaurants available within a few minutes walk from the Hotel. The Hotel staff throughout our stay were all very pleasant and helpful and the bedroom suite and public areas were all well maintained. We found that the City of La Spezia had a good range of attractions to visit including the Castello San Giorgi and the Naval Technical Museum which we visited. Our main reason for visiting the area was to explore the 5 villages of the Cinque Terre; Monterosso Al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore, which we managed to do by means of the excellent train service. Cinque Terre Cards available from the train station cost 18.20 euros for one day unlimited travel between La Spezia and the villages and these also allow access to the footpath network between the villages. During our stay we also visited the beautiful resort of Portovenere by ferry, which is also served by buses from La Spezia. We took the opportunity to visit the picturesque village of Santa Margherita Ligure from where we took a ferry to nearby Porto Fino. Buses also run between Santa Margherita and Porto Fino. We found the NH Hotel an ideal location to stay and from which to explore the area and would stay at the hotel again should we return to La Spezia.

Overall would recommend this hotel as the location is unmatched and not a lot of other higher-end hotels in the vicinity. Some details: -Ambiance: Hotel lobby was clean and nice. Rooms were beautiful, spacious, clean, and well-decorated. It seems like most of the rooms would offer a good view of the marina. -Amenities: Breakfast is on the 1st floor terrace which offers a decent spread and amazing view of the marina. Bathrooms in the units are updated with rainfall showers and spacious. Bed was quite comfortable but the one we had was 2 twins put together so a slight break was felt in between but wasn't uncomfortable. If you are driving, parking is easy and close to the hotel (less than 1 minute walk from the hotel entrance). -Location: This hotel has the perfect location for ferry service (within 2-3 walk). However, it is about 25 minute cab ride from the closest train station (in the event that you want to return to Portovenere after the last ferry from Cinque Terre around 5ish). -Service: The front desk/reception is effective and organized; however, they are a little stiff and low energy relative to other similar properties we've visited in Italy. The wait staff at the restaurant on the 1st floor is slightly disorganized both at breakfast and dinner (eg. forgotten breakfast coffee or provided incorrect dinner wines); but overall everyone is cordial.
