Advice: hotels in La Spezia are much cheaper than in the Cinque Terre's villages; moreover, you can always go out and walk around in the heart of the town during evenings. It is always bustling with tourists, and concerts are a routine here whereas nightlife in the villages is completely opposite. Main disadvantage of La Spezia is that there are no beaches here: the entire coast is occupied by port and military base.
