It’s been a while since I stayed there but it’s been on my mind ever since so I decided to come back and write this review. Since the moment I enetered the hostel I was made to feel at home, the owner Andrea was so kind, remembered my name right away and gave lots of tips for seeing Cinque Terre. The volunteers working here were also the sweetest. The hostel is small and the outside area is really nice so you always end up sitting there all together. After a couple of days there we ended up feeling like an old group of friends.

At the hostel, the rooms include a wardrobe. Featuring a shared bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer, rooms at Ostello Tramonti also feature free WiFi. All rooms will provide guests with a desk and a kettle.

A very nice place with friendly and helpful staff. Location is beautiful, but sometimes can be challenging to get to due to bus schedule. However the hostel staff does provide with all the information , which makes planning your trips to Cinque Terre towns much easier. Tabacco shop owner, Gloria is an amazing and very helpfull person who knows everything you need to know about cinque terre hikes, cards, tickets and etc.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The backpackers hostel. A lot of attention to detail for a solo traveler. The staff is super friendly and ready to help with anything and know how to offer recommendations. Great amenities with towels, free food, mosquito spray, and whatever you might need. Small space is good for socializing too.

    Great location and safe for a solo female traveller too.. Excellent value for money, room is basic but comfortable and clean. Staff was friendly, my room was not in same building as the trattoria, 100m away, but someone took me there and kindly showed me everything. Instructions are super clear. Handy to have a fridge in room. Breakfast was great and plenty in the trattoria, everyone in trattoria super friendly too!

    The hostel was in a great location, Cristiano was very helpful with the stay. It was a very social hostel where everyone would gather for dinner and talk with each other. Definitely one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at.

    I am very amazed that you can enjoy the service of a star hotel at a cheap price like a youth hostel, and I recommend him without hesitation.

    This Hostel exceeded my expectations! I was traveling for more than a month for Italy, and this was definitely the best hostel!! Great place, great location and the best staff, they help me to organize all the days that I was in La Spezia. So if you're thinking to go to La Spezia, I highly recommended you this place!
