Great hotel with very friendly staff

Great hotel in convenient location. Very friendly staff and tasty breakfast. Missed quality coffee but lots of places around to get my coffee hit. Paid parking by hotel is at the station which is not very convenient. We found paid on street parking close by. Just check if it is not time limited. We left car from 5pm till 10.30am for less than $10.

Really nice and helpful staff! They upgraded our room and gave us a delicious bottle of wine. We stayed here when going to cinque terre for the day and they were very helpful with our itinerary.

10/10 Exceptional

Great for Cinque Terre travel

This hotel was the perfect place to stay when going to Cinque Terre if not staying in one of the towns. It was about a 5 minute walk to the train station in a nice area with some good restaurants near by. The hotel staff was great and held onto our bags for us since we arrived prior to check in time. They even put our luggage in our room when it was ready so we wouldn’t have to take it up the stairs.
Samantha, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel was so close to train access that it made getting to Cinque de Terre so easy. The hotel was darling and had a cool vibe that was so welcoming. Breakfast was outstanding and well appreciated!

I booked this place last minute after a stressful experience elsewhere, and it exceeded all expectations. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, the room was spotless, and everything felt well cared for. Such a relief to find a place like this — I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and professional stay.

We choose The Poets Hotel as we had stayed there previously. It is well located, near the main station in La Spezia to explore the region. The hotel is comfortable and our room was spacious. The evening reception staff were friendly and helpful. Checking in and out was very straightforward. Reasonably priced for services offered.
