Strong smell
This hotel has a very strong smell from reed diffusers that are placed all over the place. It was too much and overwhelming. Even rooms had a strong smell of cleaning supplies. Having to deal with this smell all the time made our stay uncomfortable.

Close to train station and shopping. The outside of the property has the theme from John Lennonn's song "Imagine" on it and it has special meaning to me.

Cinque Terra gateway
Hotel was clean, bed comfy and centrally located. The complimentary drinks in the fridge were a nice touch and the front desk was very helpful. Rooms on the small size bit quiet. AC worked well and appreciated. Didn’t try the breakfast, found a couple of nice coffee shops close by. It would have been nice to have a coffee machine and tea kettle in the room. Close to a grocery store for supplies.

The Poet is a great place to stay. The front desk staff was very helpful and sweet. There is really interesting art through out the main areas. Our King size bed was comfortable and the biggest bed I have ever seen! I think it was 7 1/2 feet wide!

My stay at the Poet hotel was wonderful! The hotel is perfectly located just a short walk from the train station, making it incredibly convenient for day trips to Cinque Terre. The hotel itself is as beautiful as the photos online. It was stylish, clean, and full of charm! The staff was also warm and welcoming. If you're looking for a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing place to stay, with easy access to Cinque Terre, this hotel is a fantastic choice!

6/10 Good

The hotel was ok, but it did not have a restaurant on site, which I find comfortable if you come back tired and do not wish to go out to dinner or even to do room service. Housekeeping service did not replenish soap or other toiletries. The area is ok too, not too many fine dinning options and there is nothing at all to visit in La Spezia. If you do not wish to stay in one of the Cinque terre cities, La Spezia is a good option since it is quite big.

I loved this hotel. 24/7 concierge with at least two people. Very close to the Main Street that has all shops and bars. This is a great hotel to keep as a home base if you are visiting Cinque Terre. The train station was a 7 min walk.
