Hotell Genua

Excellent hotel with great location and outstanding customer service.

Stayed here after a cruise. Very modern, clean, friendly hotel, concierge very helpful. Great location on the port near all the attractions and near to the old town. Would recommend.

My 10 year old son and I stayed a couple of days in this hotel and we have a very good experience. Very convenient located. Steps from the train station, the port and downtown.

Very simple, plain, and clean hotel across from the train station. Front desk recommended a restaurant where we had the best meal of our trip. Go to the aquarium!

My visit to Genova included exploring the historic Porto Antico area and a music event at the Fiera exhibition centre. It's a 30 minute walk from the NH Plaza to the Fiera di Genova but it's good to take your time walking down to the harbour area, visiting the UNESCO World Heritage sites. As the largest port in Italy it's not surprising that Genova has become a centre of excellence for progressive rock music, which is defined by the incorporation of different styles including classical music, folk music and eastern and middle eastern influences.

This is the 3rd time that I've stayed at the Star Hotel President whilst visiting Genoa and Liguria in general. This is very friendly hotel offering excellent value for money positioned well to explore the best shopping in Genoa on Via Settembre, the best eateries beyond La Piazza de Ferrari such as La Giada and next door to Stazione Brignole train station if you want to explore beautiful Liguria and beyond.

My sister and I stayed 2 nights at the Hotel Helvetia in Genoa in the beginning of September 2013. The room was quite large and very clean. The wireless internet connection worked fairly well. The friendly staff directed us to a parking spot for our car that was very close and easy to get to. We were able to pull right up front of the hotel to drop our luggage off first. The staff also provided a map of the area with suggestions on where to eat and sites to see. They were very attentive and helpful. The hotel location is fantastic. Our room looked out over busy Piazza Della Nunziata but when you closed the window, it was still quite quiet. There are so many shops and restaurants nearby. A seven-stop commuter funicular begins at the Piazza and it is worth the trip up to see the view of Genoa. The hotel is situated amongst some very impressive landmarks and the architecture is gorgeous. We had decided to stay in Genoa so we could visit Cinque Terre but then we were sorry that we did not dedicate more time to exploring this really interesting and beautiful city. The Hotel Helvetia is a very good location to explore the city from. It is also very close to the train station. We really enjoyed the hotel and would highly recommend it. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

Good experience. Room is large. The breakfast is so so.

So conveniently located near the train and with a friendly and knowledgeable staff, this beautiful hotel gets a five-star rating from me. We will stay here next time we travel to Genova. Restaurant management and staff, and food, were excellent as well.

Genoa is a wonderful town with many interesting places to see, be prepared to do a lot of walking if you wish to see the town, and do try the local cafes for food. The Bristol Palace is in a good position in the centre of the town.
