Hotel Zia Piera is a 3-star hotel in Chiavari, Liguria, about 200 metres from the town beach and just steps from the historic centre. Established in 1960, it retains a family-run feel reflected in the welcome and the care given to the common areas, including the in-house restaurant serving local cuisine.
The property is designed especially for couples: the location has been rated 9.7 specifically by this type of guest, which is no surprise given its proximity to the sea and to Chiavari railway station, just 400 metres away. The rooms, equipped with air conditioning, flat-screen TV and private bathroom, almost all include a balcony or terrace with sea views, with some superior options extending to a suite with hot tub and private pool.
Guests staying here find a good balance between seaside relaxation and the chance to quickly reach villages, museums and coastal trails of the Tigullio, in a setting that favours simplicity and attention to detail over sheer scale.
The rooms at Hotel Zia Piera range from classic options to more spacious accommodations designed for couples’ stays. All feature air conditioning, private bathroom, flat-screen TV and a coffee machine, while most look out onto the sea with a balcony or terrace: a detail that makes the view one of the property’s cross-cutting strengths.
The range starts with the Double/Twin Room, the most compact at 16 sqm, and goes up to the two 22 sqm suites with separate living area, minibar and lounge space: the Junior Suite with Sea View and the Deluxe Suite, the latter the only one fitted with a hot tub and a private pool for exclusive use. Rounding out the offering is the Deluxe Double Room with Sea View, also 16 sqm but with its own panoramic terrace.
The most compact room in the property, with 16 sqm of air-conditioned space and parquet flooring. It has a private bathroom with hairdryer and toiletries, flat-screen satellite TV and sea views; the bed type can be changed upon request at the time of booking.
Larger than the standard double room, this 22 sqm junior suite features a separate living room with sofa bed and lounge area, plus the bedroom with an extra-large bed. The bathroom has a shower and toiletries, while a minibar and coffee machine complete a sea-facing accommodation.
The only accommodation with a hot tub and a private pool for exclusive use, a feature that sets it apart from all other rooms. Same 22 sqm size as the Junior Suite, with separate living room, minibar, coffee machine and sea views from the sleeping area.
Like the Double/Twin Room it shares the 16 sqm size, but here the sea-view terrace is a distinctive feature of the setup, along with the flat-screen cable TV. The private bathroom completes a room designed for those seeking a sea outlook without giving up compact spaces.
Hotel Zia Piera offers guests an in-house restaurant, free WiFi throughout the property and daily housekeeping. The rooms, almost all with sea views or a balcony, are designed for those seeking simple yet complete comforts: air conditioning, heating and the possibility of family solutions.
On the security front, the property has CCTV both outside and in common areas, magnetic key access, a smoke alarm and an in-room safe. There is also a lift to reach the upper floors, a useful detail for those travelling with heavy luggage or with mobility difficulties.
Pets are allowed on request, with a possible surcharge, and luggage storage is available for those arriving before check-in or leaving after check-out. In the room, every unit is equipped with a flat-screen TV, cable channels and internet access.
Hotel Zia Piera is located in the heart of Chiavari, just steps from the seafront and Chiavari Beach, only 30 metres away, in a residential area that looks directly onto the Gulf of Tigullio. Piazza Torriglia is 200 metres away, while bars and restaurants such as Le Tirebouchon and Enoteca Bisson are all within 250 metres, making the area easy to explore on foot at any time of day.
Chiavari railway station is just 400 metres away, a convenient link for those wishing to travel along the coast towards Genoa or the Cinque Terre without a car. Genoa-Sestri Airport is about 37 km away, while Casa Carbone, a museum dedicated to local history, is 2.3 km away. Parco Casa Charitas, 550 metres away, is also a convenient spot for a walk among greenery close to the centre.
Those staying here can spend summer days at the beach and on boat excursions to the Abbey of San Fruttuoso, about 11 km further west, or to Portofino, while in the cooler months the area is well suited to coastal walks and visits to the villages of Lavagna and Zoagli, both just a few kilometres away. The historic centre of Chiavari, with its characteristic arcades, remains the most immediate point of reference for an evening stroll after dinner.
Guests especially praise the staff, rated 9.5, and the location, with an excellent 9.7 among couples. Cleanliness and comfort remain above 8.8, while the value for money, though solid at 8.4, remains the relatively lowest-scoring category.
