Description
"The Tower" is located in the main square of Genova, with an extraordinary view of the whole historical centre.
From here is very easy to reach by walking:
- the Aquarium, the Ancient Harbor, the Convention Centre "Magazzini del Cotone", the "Museo del Mare, Galata";
- the both train stations (Genova Piazza Principe and Genova Brignole);
- the International Fair;
- the departures for the touristic ports of Portofino, Camogli, le Cinque Terre, etc.
The position of extreem centrality allows a wide choice of restaurants, pubs, clubs, shops, boutiques, theaters and creates a very lively atmosphere both during the day and the night.
“The Tower” is the summit of a historical palace of the 16th century. This palace is both part of the estate of the Unesco (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) and the one of the “Palazzi dei Rolli”.
What are the “Palazzi dei Rolli”?
The “The Rolli di Genova” formed an official list at the time of the Republic of Genoa during 1500, of public lodging palaces and mansions of eminent Genoese families, which aspired to host – from a public lottery – the people in transit for visit of state.
(See also: http: //www. liguria. beniculturali. it/PDFs/patrimonio/Beni%20visitabili/003. pdf).
In later times the same homes have hosted the distingushed visitors which included the Ligurian capital in their itinerary of cultural and/or tourist Grand Tours.

To respect the original appearance of “The Tower” – saving the ancient materials – the renovation and restauration necissitated more than eight years. The result? Locations of the Middle Age set in the 21st century!
Still, “The Tower”, even if very ancient and witness of many historical events, is equipped with every contemporany confort, making a sojournment in its accomodations an unique and unforgettable experience.
Every accomodation of “The Tower” is a suite with unique features: the setting is full of charme. Celings of wood of the 16th century, artistic byzantine mosaics, doors made of beaten iron, handmade tiles of fused glass.
The eclusive ubication and the very good relation between quality and princes make of “The Tower” the perfect location for your holidays or weekend in Genoa and its rivieras.

Abbiamo soggiornato solo una notte ma l'alloggio a noi riservato ci ha sorpreso per originalità e pulizia. Il fatto di avere così tante scale è ripagata dall'atmosfera del posto e della sua geniale gestire la Signora Eliana, che con il suo tocco d'artista ha reso il tutto molto apprezzato. Genova forever! Anche se in centro non si viene disturbati dai rumori di città.

La camera è carina. Il bagno piccolino ma pulito. La posizione è ottima, ma per il parcheggio è un disastro. Quello vicino è carissimo.
La colazione in confronto ad altri B&B è proprio misera. Bricchetto di succo di frutta (caldo) e brioches vuota in sacchetto. So che non possono manipolare alimenti i B&B ma ci sono molte possibilità confezionate che rendono molto.

Questa struttura è un vero gioiellino. Situata in una torre cinquecentesca si gode di un'atmosfera e di una vista unica sulla città!
Le camere sono grandi, ventilate, molto romantiche e accoglienti e l'atmosfera data dalle molte finestre e dalla vista è davvero emozionante.
La gestione è impeccabile. La proprietaria è stata davvero gentile, disponibile ed enormemente cordiale. È stato un vero piacere.
La colazione "confezionata" consiste nella possibilità di farsi un the, un caffè o una camomilla calda, e sono poi a disposizioni succhi e brioches confezionate.
Consiglio questa struttura per chi volesse soggiornare a Genova per un weekend romantico, davvero rilassante.
Merita assolutamente!
