Gusto Siciliano In La spezia

25/10/2025: The hotel is nice, but there were some flaws in the room, including the bathroom door. The lady at reception who welcomed us was very kind and helpful. She let us reserve the room at the Booking price, which obviously included taxes. But no, in the morning at checkout, her colleague added €18 to our bill for the tourist tax.

14/10/2025: I stayed 7 nights in a modest room with a very nice sized bed (might be a ‘queen’ sized bed in Australian standards). Anyway, very friendly staff, super close to a free public beach with beautiful sand and water, and a lovely breakfast every morning. My bedding and towels were changed every day and all felt very clean. The roof top is also a hidden gem, with shade and seats/tables - so you can sit there and read with amazing sea views. A short bus ride from Lerici and Tellaro is just down the road with plenty of restaurants (remember to buy your bus ticket from the local tabaccheria or the front desk as they don’t take cash on the bus). Perhaps my small issue is I could often hear my neighbours in the room next door (and they could probably hear me!). Nothing to be done about that though and I still very much enjoyed my stay. Thank you again! I hope to be back.
