Staff is very friendly. Hotel is very different from any other hotel I have stayed in. I enjoyed it. Easy walk everywhere and very safe day or night. Walk to train or boat for Cinque Terra trips without paying the high price for hotels in the towns. I love La Spezia

Room at Birillio Hotel La Spezia

Birillio Hotel La Spezia Very good location, perfect for my purpose. Receptionist very helpful and thoughtful in her communication with me as a hotel guest. As with most hotels only criticism small pieces of soap irritating to use also sachets of shower soap dreadful to open and use.. ; cleaners were evident very early in morning, difficult to relax; finally size of shower room slightly miserable, probably could have been designed slightly larger within overall room space. Thank you

Decent location and the staff were friendly but the actual room was poor. Felt like the whole hotel was run down. In the room there was paint and plaster falling off the wall and doesn't seem like any basic maintenance has happened for many years.

The picture of the room accommodations was no where near accurate. The room was small, very old, shower curtains that were torn, bathroom only large enough for 1 person. hardly room to move around in the room. The hotel was VERY noisy. The staff tried to be as accommodating as possible.

Friendly and Good location

Lovely modern light room recently redecorated. Our bathroom was tiny, the smallest of bathrooms we had in Italy and you did wonder how you might manage but it worked. There is no lift access and the marble stair case is worn but we had no problem moving up and down them. Staff were happy to help with bags if asked. Nice outdoor garden space for drinks or coffee. Lovely home made buffet breakfast. Typical contential breakfast plus cereal yoghurt and boiled eggs. We enjoyed our stay and they were happy to help with travel advice. We used this as our base to travel to Cinque Terre. Wifi was also good.

Superb receptionists!

The receptionists Domenico and Sarah are very friendly and helpful and spoke flent English. Domenico helped us to take the luggage to upstair since there is no elevator. They provided us plenty of hot water since we were sick. Maybe it is low season now, the room was quite dirty. We had to clean the bathroomour ourselves thoroughly. It was cleaned better the next day. The bath room is very small: your head touching the door when sitting on the toillette, the basin was the smallest like a toy we had ever seen, the water flow from the showerhead (shower room ver small) and faucet was small and weak. The location is convinient: the busstp to Porto Venere (which is a wanderful place to visit) is one block away, the train station is walkable to (thus, a good base for visiting Cinque Terre). The breakfast was ok.

Excellent hosts and hotel in a fabulous location.

This hotel is in a really great position for exploring. The town itself is not over run with tourism and feels really safe and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. The room was satisfactory and good value. Parking was easy and the host was so helpful with this issue. A refrigerator would have been helpful but the air con was great. I would recommend this hotel as a fpgreat base for exploring.

Could've been better.

Decent but underwhelming. Seems like they need better maintenance staff; housekeeping was fine. AC functioned, but blasted out dust or mold, so we didn't feel comfortable running it. Shower temperature fluctuated wildly between scalding and frigid. Windows in the bedroom and bathroom didn't close all the way, allowing mosquitos in.

Great hotel in La Spezia

The hotel is a 10 minute walk from the train station. On check in we were told that the weather would be bad the next day and we should do as much to day as possible so we decided to get to all 5 cinque Terre towns. He also carried one of our suitcases to the room. The breakfast was great and home made. A great hotel to be base for cinque Terre

As Advertised - but a great hotel because of it.

This is a 2-star hotel, completely as advertised. The staff is very friendly and accomodating, making for a very good deal. If you want an Air Conditioned room, ensure you request it.
