The rooms, all with private bathroom equipped with bidet and toiletries, are furnished with a wardrobe, flat-screen TV and air conditioning; some open onto a balcony overlooking the inner courtyard or the city. The offering includes a double room with balcony, a triple room with an additional sofa bed and a second deluxe double room, suitable for couples as well as small groups of friends.
The location in the pedestrian centre of La Spezia is one of the features most appreciated by guests, who have rated the location very highly, especially those travelling as a couple. La Spezia Centrale railway station is about 750 metres away, convenient for those who want to travel to the Cinque Terre or Portovenere without a car. Bars, restaurants and typical shops of the historic centre are just a few metres from the entrance.
Il Fiore del Prione offers three room types, all designed for those looking for comfort in the heart of La Spezia. Each room has a private bathroom with bidet, toiletries and hairdryer, as well as air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a tea and coffee making set: shared features that make the stay practical regardless of the room chosen.
The two deluxe double rooms, at 16 square metres, differ in small details of view and outlook, while the deluxe triple room, larger at 21 square metres, adds a sofa bed to the large double bed to accommodate up to three people and stands out for its city view. All rooms include a wardrobe and bed linen, ideal for both couples’ stays and small groups visiting the historic centre.
This 16 sqm double room is, along with its twin on a different floor, the only one to open onto a private balcony overlooking the inner courtyard, ideal for a break outdoors. Featuring air conditioning, a tea and coffee making set and a private bathroom with shower, it is designed for couples looking for a quiet corner in the heart of the old town.
The largest of the three room types, at 21 sqm, is also the only one designed for three people thanks to the sofa bed added to the large double bed. Instead of a balcony, it offers a city view, and the private bathroom includes a bidet and hairdryer: the ideal choice for small groups or families.
A 16 sqm double room with balcony and inner courtyard view, twin to the first one but located in another part of the property for those who prefer a more secluded and quiet setting. Air conditioning, a private bathroom with shower and a tea and coffee making set complete the amenities.

Il Fiore del Prione is located on Via del Prione, the pedestrian street that runs through the historic centre of La Spezia, among shops, bars and typical Ligurian restaurants. The neighbourhood is lively and easy to explore on foot, with Castello San Giorgio about 150 metres away and the Amedeo Lia Museum, home to one of the most important collections of ancient art in Liguria, practically the same distance away. Just a short walk, little more than a hundred metres, are also the church of Santa Maria and several cafés for breakfast or an aperitif.
La Spezia Centrale station can be reached on foot in about 10 minutes, 750 metres from the property, a convenient connection for those wishing to visit the Cinque Terre, Portovenere or Lerici without a car. The nearest airport is Pisa Galileo Galilei, about 65 km away, while Carrara is about 25 km away. The nearest beaches, such as Spiaggia del Persico and Spiaggia del Cantun, are about 4.6-4.7 km away and easily reached by car or public transport along the gulf.
La Spezia is the base for exploring the Cinque Terre National Park, with scenic trails connecting Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso, particularly popular in spring and autumn thanks to the mild climate. In summer, the beaches of the gulf and boat trips to Portovenere and the islands of Palmaria and Tino are among the most sought-after activities, while in winter the historic centre and city museums, such as the Technical Naval Museum about 450 metres from the property, offer a cultural alternative for cooler days.
