"Amazing location right near the port of Genova, restaurants, museums, shops, etc. Love this hotel, staff excellent, breakfast lovely, rooms spacious. "
"Very helpful when we arrived (too early for check-in)--they let us store our bags there while we went out and about and gave us a map that they marked up to show where we were and where we said we wanted to go. The hotel was very clean, and the breakfast had plenty of variety. Will stay there next time I'm in Genova. "

Hotel Palazzo Grillo
10/10 Excellent
"We loved the Palazzo Grillo. Yes, it is a registered UNESCO World Heritage site and a wonderfully restored hotel that seamlessly blends a palazzo built in 1545 with 21st-century conveniences. A superb breakfast on the top floor, a beautiful relaxation library on the second floor, and nicely placed in the old quarter of Genova, at the Piazza delle Vigne.
Palazzo Grillo is located in the pedestrian zone of the town center, making access by car impossible. We enjoy walking, so the 5-minute walk with our luggage from the closest parking garage (Marina Porto Antico) to the town center was no problem. Be sure to follow the directions from the hotel. Certain taxis can take you close to the hotel, resulting in a shorter walk. The labyrinth of alleys in the old part of town is worth your trip--a cultural wonder.
Expect excellent service from the staff.

"Parking was tough but property is not far up a side street connected to the port main road, so we could park at the aquarium public parking and it was very short walk.
Very glad we stayed at this hotel vs others in Genoa downtown once we had walked the city some. This property is in one of the better / cleaner / safer feeling zones. The police station is literally next door so you get to see them pass by on patrol regularly.
The pizza place directly across the street had excellent pizza as well."
"Very nice first impression. Hotel well appointed and on the marina. Room very (and I mean very) clean. Also looks recently redone (tho I could be wrong-just looks modern and no signs of wear). Breakfast varied and seating outside a nice touch (breakfast is an upcharge). Luggage hold on day of depart and room ready on day of arrival. Bar/restaurant pretty expensive relative to a short walk to a ton of bars/restaurants across the way from the hotel. 5 minute walk and your choice of seat in any of a number of places. Next door to the aquarium but not intrusive at all. Within 10 minute walk to a ton of things-Palacio Real/Via Garibaldi/Piazza de Ferrari. Little further and walkable to Genova Piazza Principe for the train and a lot of busses. We didn’t taxi or metro anywhere but saw plenty for taxis and metro stations. Coffee maker in room good. Safe too. Shower nice. Balcony comfortable with seating for 2.
If you’re looking for good focaccia (not so thick) we did a tour and then found it the next day. La fantasie di gio. The walking tour was Prosecco, Focaccia, and Joy. Karl is encyclopedic. Tied for best money spent on this trip (with another experience in Manarola-pesto making). Genoa-2.5 days perfect amount of time. Enjoy!"
"A great hotel on a lovely tree lined boulevard going from the sea to the city centre. Great room with comfortable bed and bath and shower. Excellent breakfast and dinner. We walked everywhere from the hotel as its location is very good."
You can browse the exhibits at Genoa Port Center, a museum with a story of its own, during your holiday in Genoa. Stroll along the area's waterfront or simply savour its lively bars.
