AlbergoTeatro is a 1-star hotel in the heart of La Spezia, in Liguria, located 300 metres from the Technical Naval Museum and 500 metres from the Amedeo Lia Museum. The property occupies a building in the pedestrian area of the historic centre, a short walk from Castello San Giorgio and the seafront, in a position that allows most of the city’s attractions to be reached on foot.
The seven room types available, from the Single to the Triple, are all air-conditioned and equipped with a flat-screen TV with cable channels; some offer a private bathroom, while others share one with other units. The rooms, simple and functional, overlook a quiet street and are designed for a practical stay rather than luxury, with bed linen and towels always provided.
Guests particularly appreciate the location, rated 9.4 out of 10, and the value for money. La Spezia Centrale station is about 1.2 km away, while pets are accepted with no extra charge. A good choice for those looking for affordable but central accommodation, ideal as a base for exploring the Cinque Terre and the gulf.
The rooms at AlbergoTeatro include seven options designed for different needs, from the Standard Single Room to the Triple Room, passing through various Double room configurations. Sizes range from 12 sqm for the Single to 18 sqm for the Triples and some of the Doubles, with a maximum occupancy of one to three people. All units are air-conditioned, heated and equipped with a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a wardrobe and tiled flooring, with views of a quiet street in the historic centre.
The main difference lies in the bathroom: some rooms, such as the Double with Private Bathroom or the Triple, offer a private bathroom with shower, bidet and toiletries, while others, labelled as having a Shared Bathroom, share facilities at a lower price. The Doubles feature large or extra-large beds, while the Triple combines a single bed with a double bed, for those travelling in small groups.
The Double Room, 16 sqm, is the double solution with a private bathroom complete with shower, bidet and toiletries. The large double bed, the wardrobe and the tiled flooring complete a simple room with a view of a quiet street in the historic centre.
Larger than the standard Double Room at 18 sqm, this room shares a bathroom with other units in the property, while still offering air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a view of a quiet street: a solution designed for those looking for savings without giving up space.
Designed for three travellers, the Triple Room measures 18 sqm and combines a single bed with a large double bed, with a private bathroom equipped with shower, bidet and toiletries. One of the few units in the property with a private bathroom and capacity for up to three people.
The most compact of the accommodations, with 12 sqm designed for a single guest. The bathroom is shared with other rooms, while air conditioning and a flat-screen TV with cable channels guarantee an essential yet comfortable stay at an affordable price.
Identical in size to the Triple Room with private bathroom, this 18 sqm version instead shares bathroom facilities with other rooms, making it a more affordable choice for groups of three who do not need an exclusive bathroom.
A 16 sqm double room with a private bathroom equipped with shower, bidet, toiletries and a hairdryer. The large double bed and the view of a quiet street make it similar to the standard Double Room, but with the certainty of an exclusive bathroom included by name.
The only Double room to offer an extra-large double bed, this 16 sqm room has a private bathroom with shower, bidet and toiletries, making it the most spacious choice for rest among the double rooms with exclusive facilities.

The area is entirely pedestrianised, animated at all hours by venues such as Birreria 88 and La Rosa Blu, just a few metres from the entrance. The district retains the typical atmosphere of a Ligurian historic centre, with narrow alleys opening onto squares and monuments, including the Garibaldi Monument 150 metres away.
