Info & Description
La Lanterna delle fate is located in a small village called Borghetto Di Vara at about 18 km from La Spezia,(“The fairies’ lantern”) Why this name? You will only find it out, if you choose to stay in this B&B, which has been completely restructured, with ceilings of wood, and with a furniture which reflects our childlike disposition! The rooms (with bathroom and TV) are dedicated to three different fairies, and they are furnished with three different colours. The recently restructured historical centre of the village is the perfect framework for our B&B, and it creates an atmosphere of past epochs.The small village Borghetto Vara offers quietude for those who want to escape from the chaos of the town, but also entertainment for the more active guests: tennis courts, football grounds, cycle track, playground for the children, sport fishing in the river Vara and kayak, trails marked out by the CAI towards the CINQUE TERRE and the mountains of the surroundings which can be discovered by foot or by mountain bike, riding stable with guided excursions to the villages in the surroundings, and the beaches of our river which during summer are an alternative to the sea. The location (1 km from the tollgate of Borghetto-Brugnato) allows one to arrive immediately at the sea of the CINQUE TERRE, of PORTOVENERE; LERICI and LEVANTO.
Moreover, you can also organize excursions to important cities like GENOA in order to visit the biggest European aquarium, FLORENCE; PISA SIENA AND PARMA famous art cities, PORTOFINO and the whole coast of the West. This is not enough? We offer everything which is necessary to spend pleasant holidays … we are waiting for you!

very good for the money
I'm lucky because a citizen help me to find the hostel. Borghetto is a village and was a victim of the flood last year, so there is no doorplate. But it's beautiful & the staff is helpfully and very nice. We had a perfect time in Cinque terre. Breakfast is "yamyam", so my girlfriend was in love with the frozen yoghurt :-). After a long day we could have a good diner. We will return.
Very good hotel
A pretty nice place and very kind people. The unique little problem is the limited bus line to arrive in Burgheto from La Spezia. I recomend the place and I`m sure I will be back some day, to visit the region with more time ( I`ve stayed just for 1 night)
It is not a bad place to stay, however they are claiming that there is available internet, however there is not. Only small possibility to go to the managers room. If you would like to use wi-fi in your room in the evening it is not available.
Young couple just starting up business. Speak English well. Breakfast is fesh and well presented. Cereal available.
We were very satisfied with the accomodation and we can recommend it. Just be aware the official name "LA LANTERNA DELLE FATE" is not the correct name of the pizzeria where you have to pick up the key of appartement.
Great place, great surroundings and very helpful owners :)
It was a good choice for starting-point. It's not in the centre but anyway we just slept there. We saw Pisa, San Gimignano, 5 terre, Portovenere, Florence. We will certanly use this hostel next time...
Perfect place if you want to rest far from the loud city.
The location, for us, was ideal. A quiet backwater away from the main centres of population. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We would thoroughly recommend it as a place to stay.
Nice staff.Very clean.Very peaceful place but very small.Good for people who are very tired and need silence and peace.18 km to the seaside - Lavanto.Good for people travelling by car.
