Hotels near St. Stephen's Church (Marinasco), La Spezia

I enjoyed my stay here. The staff was available until 8PM. They had a great location right next to the train and within walking distance of a great nightlife and restaurants. La Spezia is a cute city. It's only a 7 minute train ride to Cinque Terra villages. The shower needs a door, but was spacious and had warm water. I did experience some problems with vaping/ electronic cigarette smoking on site. Unfortunately, some of it seemed to be coming from the cleaning crew. Hotels really need to understand how bad this problem is and how negatively it affects guests, especially people with asthma.

II Cinquecento Suites Cinquecento Hotel is an excellent accommodation choice. This hotel is renowned for its excellent hygiene standards and comfortable guest rooms. The rooms are beautifully designed and provide a comfortable environment to make guests feel at home. The hotel has always been praised for its cleanliness, ensuring guests have a safe and hygienic stay. Whether you are traveling for business or vacation, II Cinquecento Suites Cinquecento Hotel will provide you with a comfortable and enjoyable stay! !

From La Spezia Train Station, walk three or four minutes to the left. The exterior of the hotel is very old, and the elevator is of the old style. It can only accommodate two people and luggage. But the room is quite spacious, there are slippers, the minibar is too rich, although we did not enjoy it. There is a coffee machine in the common area of the corridor and small snacks are provided. Lemons are abundant here, so there is also a supply of fresh lemons. Due to limited space, breakfast is not served at the hotel, but at a restaurant at 11 o'clock on the left of the gate. You can get a croissant, juice and a hot drink with the hotel’s breakfast card. The city tax was first charged when staying in the hotel. It may be due to limited staff. We did not find the service staff at 8 am on the day of check-out. We put the key in the room and left directly. The overall feeling of the hotel is pretty good, you can recommend it!

We stayed a night...small but very comfortable,clean and absolutely quiet room...then Mrs. Johanna the owner absolutely very kind and friendly , gave us advice on what to visit in the short time we had...then Very strategic location ...to reach the 5 lands, just a few minutes walk from the railway station, just as close to the center... I recommend booking the car park... which is just in front of the stable...so I have nothing to do compliments and thanks for welcomed us in this short stay....we will surely return to you.. THE COUNCIL VIVously!!!

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.

I loved this stay a lot more then some of the hotels in my trip, felt nice having your own key to a building. The room really surprised me, it was really nice and also in such a good spot of la spezia. La spezia surprised me, I was nervous as it seemed a bit rough around the edges but honestly such a lovely stay with trendy bars in every alleyway, just got to explore the streets. 10 min walk to the station which is right on the main Cinque Terre line going to the towns, I was a pro by the end of my stay. I felt like this was the place I actually met other Italians as the cinque Terre can be super congested with tourists so I really recommend staying here instead of one of the 5 towns and making base doing day trips to the villages. The reception were really lovely and helped you try and understand the area before letting you go off to your apartment room. I didn't spend much time in the room but I slept really well and all the facilities worked and there was information in the hallway if needed about ferry times and spots to go to. La Spezia was also one of the more affordable parts of Italy I went to with some really good food and drinks.

We stayed in other hotels of this brand in Italy (very good), but this one was disappointing. It feels like this hotel is newly opened and no one knows how to entertain guests. Breakfast is OK, the view from the pier is great. Our room had two double beds with ”wheels” like a dorm - not at all suitable for our original romantic plan. We booked a double bed. This was the only hotel we were not satisfied with in Italy. It takes 20 minutes to walk to the train station and there is no restaurant nearby. The restaurant in the hotel was closed at night when we were there. The food delivered to the room (hamburger) can be eaten (we are too hungry) but it is not delicious. Will not stay here again!!
