We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 night stay at Cinque Terre Gateway in La Spezia. Accommodation were lovely with modern bathrooms and comfortable beds and were very clean. Breakfast was delicious. Front desk staff was friendly and helpful in planning our activities. However the highlight of our hotel stay was Michele the owner. It was great to spend time with him as he was very cordial, friendly and he was so focused on keeping us happy and pleased with his service. This hotel was perfect to use as our base to explore the Cinque Terre..truly a magical part of Italy and so easily accessible from the hotel with the train station just a minute or two walk! We lived the villages of Cinque Terre. La Spezia itself was a great place to explore with many cafes and shops close by. This was an A+ operation. Well done!!! I can’t wait to come back next year!

The hotel is ideally located just a 2-minute walk from La Spezia Centrale train station, simply cross the street and you'll find it on the left. If you're worried about the area being noisy or sketchy, rest assured: it's quite the opposite. The hotel sits in a spacious, well-lit square with a clean and safe atmosphere. The building looks modern and well maintained, and the interiors are beautifully designed with great attention to detail. Our room was spotless and incredibly comfortable. The soundproof windows completely block out any outside noise, making for a peaceful night’s sleep. The blackout curtains are perfect for those who prefer total darkness in the morning. The amenities are exactly what you'd hope for: fast and free WiFi, an easy-to-use smart TV, and a modern shower that's simple to operate. There are several cafés, restaurants, and a supermarket just around the corner. Very convenient before heading off to explore the Cinque Terre or coming back after a day of hiking. But what really made our stay special was the staff: genuinely kind, helpful, and always available for recommendations or assistance. Their hospitality made us feel truly welcome. Whether you're staying for one night or several, this is the perfect base to explore the region. We would absolutely stay here again!

I am absolutely delighted with my stay at this accommodation. I chose this location to explore Cinque Terre and it was a good choice. Very nice boutique hotel with excellent location just two minutes walk from the train station yet it was not noisy and I felt safe. It was also a short walk from the centre, where there are plenty of museums, shops and restaurants and it did not take long to walk to the port either. The inviting atmosphere has provided me with a wonderful sense of comfort; my room is spacious and cozy, and the staff have been exceptionally friendly. My suite features a generous bathroom and dressing area, which adds to the overall experience. Additionally, the prime location allows for easy returns to rest between visits to the five attractions. Breakfast was plentiful. There was a great selection and something for everyone! Overall, I am thoroughly satisfied and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

This hotel is breathtaking! We walked in and were immediately impressed. Our room was beautiful and the comfort cannot be beat. We enjoyed a large selection of items from the breakfast, which is included in the room price. The staff was excellent with their service. Michele, the owner, was most welcoming and greeted us each day and night in the lobby. The Staff always greeted us with warm smiles and gave excellent options for exploring the Cinque Terre coastline during the day. One of the really good things is that parking, which is hard to find in the area, was right next door. I would highly recommend this stay to anyone visiting the Cinque Terre as it is a bit quieter than stay in the villages. We will return!

We stayed in this wonderful hotel on a road trip to Sorrento. The Cinque Terre has been on my bucket list, and I wanted to stay somewhere special. This hotel certainly was. First of all, there was a welcome letter together with bottle of Prosecco in our room. The hotel staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The rooms are well equipped and spacious. The beds so comfy, the showers were the best. Breakfast at the hotel was first class, having a choice of breads, pastries, cold meats, smoked salmon and a hot option, to name just a few. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely return. One night was not enough. If you are looking for a relaxing place, with excellent hospitality, Cinque Terre Gateway is your place! I can’t wait to come back next year!

We couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay! Cinque Terre Gateway is the perfect blend of style, comfort, and convenience. The location is unbeatable – just steps from La Spezia Centrale station, which made it incredibly easy to explore all the villages of Cinque Terre. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything we needed. We truly appreciated the attention to detail in every corner. The staff was exceptionally welcoming and professional, always ready with helpful tips and recommendations. Check-in was smooth and the entire experience felt seamless from start to finish. If you're looking for a relaxing, elegant, and strategically located stay in La Spezia, Cinque Terre Gateway is the place to be. We’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

We loved everything about Cinque Terre Gateway! We initially wondered if staying in La Spezia might be a compromise compared to staying directly in the Cinque Terre villages, but it turned out to be the perfect choice. The hotel has a refined 4-star charm — honestly, we’ve stayed in 5-star places that felt less curated. We booked a Superior King size room, and it was spacious, stylish, and impeccably clean. The comfort was outstanding. Waking up and having breakfast in such a beautifully designed space, before heading off to explore the Cinque Terre, was the perfect start to our days. The location was ideal: the train station is just a few minutes’ walk, making it super easy to reach all five villages quickly without the hassle of carrying luggage through steep alleys or stairs. In the evenings, we enjoyed walking around La Spezia's historic center, which is full of charm and great food. The person who truly made our stay special was Michele. He went above and beyond — always warm, helpful, and professional. He had great recommendations, checked in with us regularly, and genuinely cared that we were enjoying our stay. Highly recommend staying here if you want comfort, convenience, and first-class hospitality as your base for discovering the Cinque Terre.

Excellent experience! Quiet, easy to sleep well! Efficient room size with spacious bathroom, very up-to-date design. The rooms were clean, beds comfortable and they gave you pods for coffee. I also found the room size to be generous by Italian standards and the bathroom had some countertop space which was so nice. Filtered water was available for refilling bottles, which I appreciated. They had great air conditioning and did not have ridiculous restrictions on the temp like so many hotels today. I was able to cool the room to a comfortable sleep temperature. Front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. They greeted us every time we walked by, which was a nice touch. The location is just a 2-minute walk from the train station, where you can catch trains to the Cinque Terre villages. Great price point and location. I will definitely stay here again!

Nice welcome, lovely room, very decent breakfast, close proximity to the walked city center ZTL and the train station without being actually parked inside the crowd. My husband liked the receptionist who took the booking; he sorted us out and was very pleasant. First impressions do count. The room: I am commonly regarded as lunch for mosquitoes, so I was very pleased to find the hotel has mosquito nets on their jalousie windows, (when either open or closed), to keep them out. This is a very rare provision, and very appreciated. By me. Our room was well-appointed; comfortable bed, cool cotton sheets, nice pillows, complimentary soap etc, nice shower, hot water. Room was well dressed by housekeeping. Very clean!!  I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in Cinque Terre.

This a simply wonderful Hotel which deserves five stars. We stayed in a beautifully appointed Double Deluxe Room with very comfortable bed, daily turn down service and all amenities that you need.The room was very clean. Each day we received warm, friendly and professional service from every member of staff we encountered. Really nothing was too much trouble and service came with a smile. Special mention to the owner gave great service and a warm welcome. Reception staff were really helpful with advice on trains and taxis.It was a very nice touch to receive a welcome bottle of Prosecco in our room and the breakfast buffet selection was very extensive and much better than many hotels we have visited over the years. Highly recommend this Hotel and would love to return.
