The Poet Hotel
"Love the location walkable to the piazza and all the restaurants. Even the port was a nice walk to."

"Breakfast was great Reception was very helpful"
La Casa delle Acciughe
"Habitacion cรฉntrica , junto a una de las calles principales de La Spezia . Limpia y con buen aire acondicionado , dispone de una cocina de acceso tambiรฉn para las demรกs habitaciones, con cafรฉ y diferentes productos para el desayuno . La atenciรณn del personal โฆ excelente !!"
Affittacamere Casa Danรจ
"The place is centrally located, the room was clean and staff was nice. One of the reasons I booked this hotel was for being centralized and parking. Never once mentioned that for parking you must reserve your spot. Their parking was always full and without availability. Recommend you contact place right after booking to reserve parking at the location. Otherwise expect to park away from property, a 10-15 minute walk. After seeing location, if parking is not an issue for you I recommend looking at other places."

"I have nothing bad to say about this place, and I am so glad we chose this place! We stayed here for two nights with our teens during our trip. Everything was wonderful from the location, cleanliness, the amenities, well-equipped kitchen, and daily housekeeping (this is a rare service after Covid!). The host lady- I didnt get her name sadly - was very kind. The AC worked great kitchen had everything we needed, and the bed was very comfortable. The elevator was out of service during our stay. So we had to climb up-and-down to the 3rd floor, however this was not an issue with everything else being wonderful. I would highly recommend this place."
