The location was incredible. We were not sure of our plans and stumbled off the train and into Monterosso al Mare. We luckily found rooms at La Spiaggia. It was more about the location and the owner than the actual hotel. He is a gem! Despite the floods and landslides in October, the hotel was clean and the owner was... More

Thank God we stayed at Hotel La Spiaggia on our first trip to Cinque Terre! Andrea and his outstanding support pointed us in all the right directions. You need a restaurant? Tell them he sent you. You need a taxi? You'll have one in a jiffy! If you want to experience true Italian, family-style hospitality, look no further than this... More

Our first visit to the Cinque Terre region could not have been more enjoyable and this was largely due to the owner / manager and staff of Hotel La Spiaggia. The hotel is located right opposite the beach just a few minutes (flat) walk from the train station. Our room was on the third floor with a lovely little balcony... More

I am so glad we took the advice of a friend and stayed at the Hotel La Spiaggia. Andrea is definitely the 'face' of the hotel. However, Maria, Ela and Isabella also all work hard to make the guests welcome. We were given suggestions for restaurants and even had a reservation made for us at a restaurant down the street....

Just a short walk brought us to our hotel..the Hotel La Spiaggia, located beachfront, with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean. We were warmly greeted by the innkeeper, Andrea and his assistant (I think his daughter) Maria. They had us sit at... More

We have been traveling to Hotel La Spiaggia for 25 years and have enjoyed every visit. A particular "draw" and delight is the innkeeper, Andrea Poggi. We treasure him both for his kind heart and generous spirit. His impeccable English and knowledge of local restaurants and lore is a huge plus – DO NOT MISS this place. More

My wife and I enjoyed 5 beautiful days in Monterossa al Mare. We stayed at La Spiaggia, a family-owned and run hotel right on the beach. The room was spacious and clean and there was an enclosed shower (a special treat in Italy!). The proprietor, Signore Poggi was very helpful and friendly and provided excellent advice regarding dining and getting... More

LOVE LOVE LOVE this hotel, as the management says 'this is not the Ritz'.....well no it isn't, but it is exceptionally clean and i would prefer to stay here any day.
