Well maintained and modern hotel in an older building which added to the character. The room was comfortable, clean and well appointed. Location was good with a short walk to both the port and areas with restaurants. Staff was very pleasant and helpful.

Good amount of selection for breakfast, great location close to train station and to restaurants. Helpful staff. The only snag was that somebody accused us of being greedy while we were silently eating breakfast.

We stayed two nights in October 2025 and were impressed with our spacious room with balcony, the very helpful and courteous staff, and the breakfast buffet. The hotel’s proximity to both the train station and the waterfront give it the perfect location to stay while visiting the Cinque Terre by train or boat. We recommend it!

We really enjoyed our visit at The Poet Hotel! The room was modern and spacious. The staff was so helpful. We had to leave early in the morning and they packed us a nice breakfast to go. The front desk women really went way out of their way to make sure we had a great stay. Dinner suggestions and great directions. We will be back!
