B&B Albaro  

On Genoa’s chic Albaro avenue, a few metres from the postcard-perfect Boccadasse beach and steps from the Corso Italia promenade. Piazza De Ferrari, Palazzo Ducale and Palazzo Rosso sit about 3 km away. Close to the Italian Merchant Marine Academy, San Martino and Gaslini hospitals for easy access to the city’s main sights and services.

A renovated beach bed & breakfast in a residential building with just two individually decorated guestrooms. Rooms feature minibars, flat-screen TVs, down comforters and premium bedding, plus private bathrooms with rainfall showerheads and complimentary toiletries. The place is compact, stylish and quietly positioned on one of Albaro’s main avenues. Staff speak English, Spanish and Italian and an elevator makes the property accessible.

Relax on a private beach and sip cocktails at the beach bar. There’s a snack bar/deli, bicycles to rent, a diving club and even aquapark-style water options nearby. Onsite conveniences include a bar, hair salon, gift shop/newsstand, tour desk, safe-deposit box, laundry and limited parking (onsite/offsite). Expect sea-breeze mornings and easy walks to the promenade.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property keeps you connected. Express check-in and check-out and a 24-hour front desk add extra convenience.

Grab light bites at the snack bar/deli and unwind at the beach bar. Local-cuisine breakfasts are served daily from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM for a fee.
