We were so happy and pleased to have stayed in Hotel Birillo. We found this hotel last minute because we cancelled our hotel in La Spezia. Turned out, we found a gem in this little town.
Sarah the staff was so welcoming and so helpful, we got a room at 22:00 in the evening. We didn't have any expectations but the room was super lovely for a 2** hotel. The bathroom was indeed small, but I am small so I had no problem :) you really can feel that this hotel is trying their best to make the guests happy by all the details they do in the room. They give you towels, toiletries, even extra pillows, blanket and linen in the wardrobe, which I liked! The room is even air conditioned with TV!! (Thought it's gonna be hot room!). Bathroom was small but has hair dryer, what a value of what you pay, seriously, I sometimes stayed at 3 or 4 stars hotel without no hair dryer so I was very happy.
It's in the city center but it's quiet, and we slept well!
Breakfast was nice, small but has all things you need, they have home made pastries and cakes, eggs and omelettes, bread and jam and cheese, also all kinds of coffee.
The staff were so helpful and explained everything about the little town of La Spezia (go to the traditional market and harbour if you can,very nice!!) And also showed us what we can do in Cinque Terre.
I will recommend this hotel to anyone and would love to go back again !! Oh if you pay by cash it's cheaper than with cards. What a wonderful value :)
And thank you Sarah who was so kind and helpful to us!!! :) We will be back if we have the opportunity again!!
Sorry I didn't take pictures of the room, but it looks exactly like in their pictures. Here's a picture of me and Sarah instead :)
