Gabbiana Holiday Rentals

"Beautiful and very kind staff. Loved happy hour and so many helpful tips. Definitely ask them to pick you up if you come in via train. "

"Had a peaceful stay at this spot! As a solo traveler heading to cinque terre this was a lovely place for a stopover. Grocery store was right down the street and the place was safe and clean! Exceeded my expectations! "

"To our complete surprise, Hotel Poet may go down as the best accommodations we have experienced in Italy to date. You are greated by friendly multi-lingual staff in a climate controlled, modern hotel, that is extremely easy to walk too from La Spezia's train station ( 500m ) Once we got to our room, we quickly realized the pictures were accurate, if not underserving the property as it looked and felt fantastic. Each room has a digital control for the A/C, which we set to 19*C as it was 35+ everyday we stayed, and found it to be the best night sleep we've both had in months. Windows have black out curtains, normal curtains, and shades offering you a truly relaxed and comfortable environment to relax in when trying to avoid the heat. Breakfast is a definite must add as well, not only did it make the process that much easier, it's also fantastic. Large assortment of options for almost any level of pickiness ( I am quite picky myself ). Wifi was strong, not sure what previous comments suggesting otherwise we're talking about, at least from our experience. Showers have rain drop heads, and lots of space, which feels rare in the otherwise cramped style most of Italy conforms too. Our only suggestion would be to add conditioner, as shampoo and body wash just aren't enough in this heat. Couldn't be happier with our stay! "

"Excellent attention from receptionist and every people there. Breakfast is at the coffee in front of the hotel, the best coffee in La Spezia. We had a very pleasant stay!!"

"El personal muy amable y dispuestos a ayudar en lo posible . Tuve dificultad de tener acceso a taxis a traves del hotel . Seria conveniente tener acuerdos con taxis que den seguridad en los traslados pues es un tema crucial cuando se esta viajando "

"The staff were extremely helpful and smiling!"

"Excellent experience overall."

"Great stay! In a great location for restaurants and a quick walk to the train station to visit cinque terre. "

"This was the perfect location to stay for a retreat and also for a day trip into Cinque Terre. We won’t get over being driven in a cart to and from the parking lot down a charming rock wall lined street. It’s the most magical entry to a hotel we’ve ever experienced. Their customer service is exceptional, going above and beyond in every way. We were greeted with a welcome drink and given complimentary DELICIOUS snacks by the pool. The view at breakfast was the best we experienced in all of Italy. Looking into the Ligurian sea was beautiful. The spa was wonderful and available to us to use privately for an hour when it was not in use. What a treat! Sauna, steam room relaxation areas with a freshly prepared treat made by the chef waiting for us. Two nights was not enough to enjoy this beautiful property! Laura gave us recommendations on how to enjoy Cinque Terre and local restaurants, plus graciously answered any of our questions. We loved meeting her!"
