Description
With its new renovated and modern style, the Poet hotel is designed to tell the stories of its guests. The hotel is cosy and it wants to be a collection of stories written by those, who want to live an experience and leave a trace. The reception is open 24 hours a day and the staff speaks Italian, English, French and Spanish. Check in is from 2.30 pm and check out is within 11.30 am. Late check o… more
The hotel is centrally located: 5 minutes far from La Spezia train station, from where it is possible to reach the villages of Cinque Terre; 3 minutes from the bus stops where it is possible to catch buses to reach Portovenere and Lerici and 5 minutes walk from the main road: Via Del Prione. Walking down this road, it is possible to find many shops, the tourist office but also the main attractions of the city: Amedeo Lia Museum, Sigillo Museum, San Giorgio Castle and the Maritime museum. At the end of Via Del Prione, it is possible to find La Spezia seafront (where in summer, it is possible to take boats to reach the beautiful villages of Cinque Terre, Lerici and Portovenere) and Porto Mirabello, one of the main yatchs harbor in the Mediterranean.
In the Poet’s Hub our guests can also enjoy a drink at our American bar opened from Tuesday to Sunday from 4 pm to 10 pm. Our hotel has also a meeting room, “The Poet Box”, located on the ground floor where it is possible to organise meetings or business event

“The place ro rest after a busy day”
We were guest of the Poet Hotel for only a few days, but those days were well spent. The Hotel is quiet, modern, and very comfortable. I had some issues with my bank card (unrelated to my stay at the hotel) that required concierge support to make a couple of international calls to work through … more

“Modern, Trendy, Wouldn’t Stay Here Again (Just okay)”
The Poet Hotel is conveniently near the train station and is very modern (almost to a fault). Our Jr. Suite room was a good size and had a comfortable mattress (which is always a plus). Breakfast was typical fare, but get there before 10:30 because after then, the coffee was gone or cold. Hotel h… more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
