In General Balbi family hotel is a good value for money choice for a hotel in Genova. The price is relatively low, the very staff friendly and helpful, the location good (Via Balbi is one of the most historical roads of Genova), decoration is stylish. The only issues we had was the noise and a little bit of cold. Note... more

Very close to train station which was ideal for us travelling independently. Patrick and his wife Roberta are lovely people and made us feel right at home. Breakfast was very good. Very close to all the sights of Genoa. more

For the price the rooms were great - we paid 68 euros a night with a huge room and our own bathroom. The room had a small fridge which was really handy and unusual for hotels in this price range.

The furniture in the rooms, the quality of the décor, etc. are all pretty basic, but perfectly acceptable in a two star hotel. (The ceilings,... more

This was a little gem in Genova. I was pleasantly surprised. I was surprised how close it was to the train station, a quick walk away. Only complaint was no lift/elevator, and we had 2 big roll suitcases!! The rooms were very clean, and the ceilings were so impressive. We had to shower down the hall in the morning, but... more

We (three adults) stayed here for one night in September on our way to the French Riviera. The hotel was very hard to find despite the directions on the web site. When we did finally find the street there was nowhere to stop outside while we off loaded our luggage. Parking was available but it was in a public car... more
