Albergo La Mimosa is a 2-star family-run hotel open since 1987, located on the hills of Lerici, about a 5-minute drive from the village centre, in the province of La Spezia.
The property has 16 rooms designed for those visiting the Gulf of Poets without giving up good value for money: the rooms are simple, with tiled floors, LCD TV, minibar and private bathroom with courtesy set and hairdryer. Several rooms offer views over the surrounding hills, a detail that reflects the rural character of the area despite its closeness to the sea.
Guests have free WiFi throughout the property and private parking at no extra cost, a notable advantage in a tourist area where finding a parking spot in summer can be difficult. The day starts with an Italian buffet breakfast. Buses to Lerici stop right in front of the hotel, from where boat connections to the Cinque Terre depart, while the port of La Spezia is about a 15-minute drive away: a practical base for those who want to move between the sea, villages and local life.
The offer at Albergo La Mimosa is based on a single room type, the Double Room, designed for two people and repeated across several units within the property. Each room measures about 17 square metres and has a private bathroom with shower, hairdryer and courtesy set, as well as a large double bed, ideal for couples visiting the Gulf of Poets.
The furnishings are simple and functional, with tiled floors, LCD TV with satellite channels, minibar and soundproofing. Many rooms enjoy a view over the hills surrounding Lerici, a feature that offsets the distance from the sea with a quieter outlook compared to properties in the centre. At the time of booking, it is possible to specify the desired bed type, a useful detail for those travelling with particular needs.

Albergo La Mimosa is located on the hills overlooking Lerici, in a quieter residential area compared to the village’s historic centre, but connected by a bus service that stops directly in front of the property. It is a convenient starting point for those who want to experience the Gulf of Poets without staying immersed in the summer tourist traffic.
The nearest beach, Venere Azzurra, is about 900 metres away, while San Terenzo beach is just over a kilometre away. Lerici’s centre, with the boat departure point for the Cinque Terre, is about a 5-minute drive away, and from there you can take a boat to Riomaggiore, about 20 km away. The port of La Spezia is about a 15-minute drive away, while the nearest railway station is Arcola, at 3.4 km. For those arriving by plane, Pisa Galileo Galilei Airport is about 58 km away.
The surrounding area offers plenty of opportunities for a day trip: the Porto Venere Regional Natural Park is about 7 km away, while in town you can visit the San Giorgio Castle and the Amedeo Lia Museum, both about 8 km away. In summer, the coast is perfect for walks along the Riviera and boat trips to the Cinque Terre; in the low season, the hilly area, with its trails and the nearby Oasi Verde, invites more relaxed walks away from the beach crowds.
Guests especially praise the helpfulness of the staff (9.2) and the cleanliness of the rooms (9.1). Comfort and value for money also score well. The hillside location and the WiFi connection receive more modest ratings, consistent with the distance from Lerici’s centre.
