The Old Station Rooms

The Old Station Rooms is a non-smoking guest house in the centre of La Spezia, just 200 metres from La Spezia Centrale railway station and 800 metres from San Giorgio Castle. The urban location, highly praised by couples who rated it 9.8, allows guests to reach restaurants, cafés and the city’s main historic sites on foot, including the 14th-century Walls and the Amedeo Lia Museum.

The rooms, all around 20 sqm, are designed for couples’ stays or short breaks: they feature a private bathroom with bidet and toiletries, air conditioning, soundproofed walls, a flat-screen TV with streaming services and a coffee machine. Some units also offer a balcony with city views, a detail that sets this option apart from the other rooms in the property.

The property is suited to those looking for a practical, central base to explore La Spezia and the Gulf of Poets, with the Technical Naval Museum and the railway station within easy reach, without giving up essential comforts such as sheets, towels and internet connection included in the stay.

Room types

The rooms at The Old Station Rooms share a size of around 20 sqm and a functional style designed for short stays or couples’ weekends. All room types feature a private bathroom with shower, bidet and toiletries, air conditioning, soundproofed walls, a flat-screen TV with streaming services and a coffee machine for preparing tea and coffee independently. The property provides sheets and towels in all rooms.

What mainly sets the individual room types apart is the view and the presence or absence of outdoor space: two rooms offer city views, while one of these also has a private balcony overlooking the town, ideal for those wanting an outdoor spot during their stay. The third double room, without a balcony or dedicated view, still maintains the same comfort standards as the other units, making it a practical choice for those who prioritise simplicity and centrality over panoramic details.
