About this property

Charm and style in the historic center of Genoa, near the Aquarium and the waterfront.

Piazza Embriaci, in the heart of the historic centre, a charming apartment that sleeps 6, located on a convenient ground floor (no lift) and overlooking the square. The very high ceilings create a pleasantly dynamic interior layout. The hallway leads on one side to a spacious living room with a state-of-the-art kitchen without upper cabinets (induction cooktop, dishwasher, microwave, Nespresso machine, electric kettle), a dining area with a large table (seats 6), and a conversation area with armchairs. The loft above provides a comfortable relaxation area equipped with a modern platform bed, a flat-screen smart TV, and a slate desk. The bathroom, preceded by an antechamber with a washing machine and laundry area (cordless vacuum cleaner, iron, and ironing board), features a walk-in shower and high-quality fixtures. The entryway hallway also leads to the two double bedrooms, located one above the other: the upper bedroom is accessed via a wooden staircase, and in addition to the double bed, there is a single pull-out sofa bed. The home has just been renovated: the wall colours, the brand-new furnishings, and the attention to detail create a tasteful atmosphere. The location is perfect for reaching Genoa’s main attractions and historic sites in just a few minutes: The Aquarium, the Porto Antico designed by Renzo Piano, the Cathedral and Piazza San Lorenzo, Palazzo Ducale, Piazza De Ferrari, and Via Garibaldi (Palazzo Rosso, Palazzo Bianco, and the Palazzi dei Rolli). In addition, the area is known for its pubs and restaurants with a lively nightlife, historic shops where you can buy local products, and the Polo Design district centred around Piazza Giustiniani, featuring furniture stores and art galleries. The house is perfect for a holiday exploring the wonderful city of Genoa; however, it is not suitable for very young children or people with mobility issues due to the internal stairs leading to the lofts.

This is a great property in the wonderful old town and close to the old port area. There are great eating places close in the area - Il Tondin and The Bigo Cafe down on the waterfront. The flat was great, well equipped and clean, and suited our party of 4 well. 2 sets of keys were available so we could be independent if needed. Paola was great. She responded quickly and also shared wonderful suggestions about how to enjoy 'her beloved Genoa' Unfortunately, I didn't read carefully the description for the flat about the internal stairs to get to the first floor. It really isn't a flat for anyone with mobility issues as it states in the description. We had a great time in Genoa and the flat was super for exploring it.
