La Spezia Hotels with Bars

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.

We had no problems at this hotel. The location was a stone throw from the train station which was very convenient since we traveled by train. We also used the train to visit Cinque Terre. Since Cinque Terre exploration envolved a lot of walking and we got back late, having the hotel close to the station was great. The breakfast here was great as well. I liked that you pay one price for an old room and a different price for a renovated room. This way you know you will get a renovated room when you pay for it. At many hotels, it's the luck of the draw. That being said, it did seem that all of La Spezia hotels seemed overpriced. What we paid for our nice, but tiny room felt very expensive relative to the pricing I have become used to in Italy. I'm from New York City where things are pretty expensive relative to Italy. This hotel was an outlier by seeming expensive.

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.

This hotel has an excellent location, excellent breakfast and very nice, friendly and informative staff at the reception. Large and clean room. But..the beds weren't the most comfortable, the shower very small, and one elevator that was very slow and not always available.

Check-in process was easy. An older lady served us and she was super friendly even with her broken English. Hotel felt like your own home; comfortable and quiet eventhough it’s located on a road directly opposite La Spezia train station. There’s a direct access with either stairs or elevator to the train station by just crossing the road. La Spezia train station is the direct access if you want to go to Cinque Terre and visit all of those 5 villages…very easy! Hotel management runs by family. There was this younger guy served us and I think he’s the son of the family. One night we’ve arrived late and he allowed us to use the restaurant to sit down and eat our takeaway food. He gave us hot water to make tea and also allowed us to use the microwave. Room was nice and clean with comfortable bed. Room set up was just like a normal room in a house…we felt like home. We were very happy during our stay. Definitely will comeback in the future.

This is a super clean, well situated boutique hotel just outside the center of La Spezia. Parking is easy, as is access to Porto Venere by car. Included breakfast is plentiful, Italian style. Ask for front rooms, although there is some street noise by day. Proprietor Emiliano is helpful in every way. For driving to Porto Venere: keep driving into the town via the one-way system; if the parking garage is 'completo' (full), keep going and head back out of town; grab the first blue-line space you see; if still no luck, loop around and head back into town looking for a blue-line space.

The location of the hotel is better than what you have seen on the tourist reviews you saw earlier. Looking outside is very common, the car opened into the hotel and found that the hotel is still very good, and can also park for free. The hotel lobby looks very warm, good! The room is quite standard and will not be detailed. Finally, if you want to go to the Cinque Terre to take the train, the hotel can take the bus to the train station.

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.

We got to the hotel early due to the train schedule. Our room wasn’t ready, but the staff held our bags and gave us recommendations for exploring nearby. When we came back, they had given us a free upgrade to a larger room. The room was comfortable and clean with several added extras that made us feel special. The breakfast spread was delicious and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back!
