Location and Transport

Hotel Marina Piccola is in Manarola, on the Ligurian coast. It's a 5-minute walk from the Manarola station and boat dock. The closest car park is a 15-minute walk. The hotel is located on Birolli, the main street. From La Spezia Central Train Station, take a train to Manarola. Galileo Galilei Airport is 100 km away. Any route other than the coastal road Via delle Cinque Terre is not recommended when driving to the hotel. After the parking lot, the village is a car-free area accessible only by local buses and emergency vehicles.

Guest Services

Enjoy Cinque Terre offers tours on a traditional Ligurian boat. Daniele and Paolo guide small groups along the coast, departing from the marina of Manarola.

“In car-free Manarola, this family-run hotel impresses with its personalized service and communal dining-a draw for those valuing authentic local experiences. The location, a short walk from the train station, puts the village's charm and Cinque Terre's trails easily within reach. I particularly appreciate their attention to local culinary traditions and how they foster a welcoming atmosphere.”
