La Spezia Villas

This hotel is well situated in a quiet area near all attractions. It is fun in its minimalistic and slick design. The beds are huge and comfortable. The air con works well, the showers are invigorating and the Hotel is eco friendly. All these things are great but what makes this Hotel stand out way beyond most others is the staff. Each and every person I have dealt with here is interested, helpful, professional and at all times caring. At a time I was beginning to lose hope in the service industry The Poet Hotel has restored my faith. We have loved our unexpected time here.

Booking was fine, arrival and check in was great. Parking was a bit challenging (parking in an underground public car park nearby cost EUR 15 overnight) On the surface the hotel looks nice, lobby, outside hotel, bar etc. Be careful unpacking your car outside the hotel as it is quite a busy road. Lifts are the old style very small and we needed to do two runs. Room was a bit dated but we had a comfortable nights sleep. Bathroom was huge with nice towels and great shower pressure. We would have given a 4 out of 5 score but there was no internet on the night we stayed. Bar service where I ended up getting internet service was excellent. Did not experience the breakfast as we had a long drive the following day.

The hotel is located on the edge of the yacht harbour and is a very clean hotel. The service staff's attitude is good and humorous. It is a bit far from the hotel to go to the Cinque Terre. You can choose to buy a scenic ticket to take the train, or you can buy a ticket at the pier. For my military enthusiasts, I was delighted to see that five Horizon-class air defense destroyers docked near the military port were visible from the hotel window. This was the best night in Italy for 15 days, on Easter night, seeing a group of Christians doing mass, dining at a restaurant opened by a local people near the hotel, very authentic Italian meals and red wine. The hotel bed has two data line interfaces without converters, which is very considerate.

Excellent location, just at the train station. We booked through booking.com and got an excellent deal. We were 3 adults and there are plenty of rooms to accommodate families and a small group of friends. Please note that there is city tax to be paid on site. Also just wanted to say a huge huge thank you to the staff. Amazingly helpful. Helped us to check in after hours and then when staying again, helped to order pizza 😊. And you can store your luggage. Breakfast is included. You will get a voucher which can be redeemed in 2 places. It's for a cup of coffee and a fresh pastry. Typical light Italian breakfast. Delicious. Just a note, to make sure you go to the correct one, ask before. As there are 2. One has RED flower pots in front and the other has WHITE. The staff is very helpful, and can chat to via WhatsApp. Thanks again!!!

On our tour of northern Italy, we stopped in La Spezia. We chose this location to visit Cinque Terre. We had booked a double room at the CDH Hotel La Spezia for one night from 17.7. to 18.7.22 via an online booking platform. The hotel is very centrally located, 10 mins to the train station and 10 mins to the port, on foot. The shopping street is just around the corner. The reception by the staff was friendly and helpful. They provided us with all the information about their house and La Spezia. The room was already ready to move into. That is positive. It is recommended to book a parking space. This costs 12 euros per night. There is a hotel-owned garage, which is not far away. You can also park in front of the hotel, free of charge if there is space. The room is functionally furnished and has everything you need. The room size was ok for us. The bathroom is a bit small but ok. The room is clean. The breakfast was very good for this class of hotel. Everything you could wish for was available. Enough space, fresh products etc. Even freshly squeezed orange juice. We can recommend the CDH Hotel La Spezia for 1 to 3 nights.

Grandissima ospitalità della proprietaria. Camera molto accogliente e curata, nonché grandissima pulizia e silenziosità. Letti comodissimi e stanza caldissma. Bagno nuovo e funzionale. Posizione strategica, visto che è a due passi dalla stazione centrale di La Spezia. Esci e hai praticamente un mezzo di trasporto sotto casa. Tutto tutto impeccabile. Giusy poi....la proprietaria.....persona simpaticissima e cordialissima. Ci ha messo a nostro agio subito e sembra di conoscerla da una vita. Socievole, cordiale, e sorridente. Per noi è diventata un punto fermo per le nostre future visite in questa città. CONSIGLIATISSIMO

The location of the hotel is very good. It’s a 5-minute walk from the train station. It’s very convenient to go to the Cinque Terre. There is an elevator. The room is small but there is no problem opening two 28-inch boxes. You can store your luggage for free. The price is very high

We booked the studio and it was amazing. Brand new and very clean, all amenities you need and excellent location, right in the centre city, as well as 5 minute walk from the train station. Our host was extremely helpful and friendly. Will book again and totally recommend (P.S. the last night we had to switch for another room because we decided last minute to extend and it was not as new and beautiful, but also very clean. I do highly recommend the studios tho)

We booked this place as it suited our requirements: pet-friendly, 3 bedroom room, central, modern and tidy, easy to get to with a car. Enrico has made sure we received all details prior to arrival. The communication was straight forward. We didn't mind that there was no actual reception. We actually liked that the apartment building gave us some insights in authentic Italian living. We were confused that on hotel.com it is mentioned that parking is available. However, right in front of the apartment building, there is max. 2 hour parking available for 0.75 EUR per hour - after 8 pm parking is free of charge. Remember, blue lines indicate time limited parking, whereas white lines indicate an unlimited parking duration. Mentioning this information would help future guests navigate through the busy Italian traffic. Upon arrival, we met the cleaner who was friendly and allowed us to check in 1 hour prior to the agreed check-in time. In order to keep this review short, our highlights are as follows: beds and pillows were incredibly comfortable, hallway and room smelled divine, Nespresso coffee machine was provided, the elevator had a great Italian feel - in summary, overall the accommodation was immaculately cleaned, well looked after and highly modernised. Another suggestion we would make is to offer free coffee. We kinda expected the coffee to be free but then read the menu and realised we had to pay for the coffee after we have already drunk all of it. We browsed a few reviews online and were shocked what people had to say as for us the accommodation was just great! We assume the place has not always provided great service. However, we were not able to identify any of the claims made by previous guests. Thank you. Keep up the good work. We happily book with you again. Arrivederci.
