Loft in San Lorenzo, two minutes from the Acquario; optional parking

In the most elegant and well populated areas of the old town, only 50 m away from the Cathedral of San Lorenzo and 300 m from Porto Antico, we rent a newly renovated loft, with kitchen, bathroom and a small bedroom.
The apartment, that is under preservation order of the Ministry of Fine Arts, combines ancient elements - such as a beautiful, carved wooden ceiling, the red tiled floor in the small bedroom, a gorgeous marmor sink and even a water pipe, all dated around 1500 - with modern elements, like iron tie-beams that hold up a balcony. Because of its aesthetic and structural peculiarity it has been published on both architecture and furniture journals.
It is entirely furnished and it offers high quality household appliances, ranging from a dishwasher to a combi oven (microwave and convection), a DVD player, TV, locker, washing machine, hair dryer, fridge and deep freezer. There are foru beds - a double bed on the balcony, two sofa-beds in the living room (yellow in the pictures; a single and a double one) and a bed in a small room, that can be turned into a double bed.
The apartment is located at a second floor without lift, all windows face south and get the sun light for several hours, since they have a rather open view on a beautiful little square, full of green: you will be waked up in the morning by the birds singing. It is located in a car-free zone and it is therefore very silent. Nevertheless, it can be directly reached by car - check www.genovaparcheggi.it for conditions and details.
In less than five minutes you can reach several public parkings as well as the main metro stations. It is the ideal starting point to visit the aquarium (3-5 min by foot), downtown (again 3-5 min by foot) and the main museums by foot. In less than 15 minutes by public transportation you can also reach Castelletto, that offers one of the most fascinating and beautiful views of the city.

NOTE 1: There is the possibility to rent a parking slot until December, in the Garage Marina Park in Via della Marina for 15 Euros / day. The garage is 700 m (8 min by foot) from the apartment.

NOTE 2: This loft can host at most 7 persons. Large groups can also book the loft on the first floor in the same building (ad nr. 1877468). There are 13 beds alltogether, 7 here and 6 in the other loft.
To compute the correct total quote, please add the quote for this loft + the one for the other loft, always entering the correct number of persons in each apartment.
The apartment is heated and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Quirky property close to everything

Comfortable stay for the two of us, easy self check. The loft is located in a fantastoc location, close to everything we wanted to see/do. The property is quirky and definitely not for you if you dont like stairs. There arent alot, bit they are challenging. Luckily for me I have a tradie for a partner and he is used to navigating spaces carrying rolls of carpet so a suitcase was no worries. A great restaurant at your doorstep and less than a minute to some great coffee. Our host Paola was easy to deal with and responsive with information.

Best Introduction to Italy

I cannot recommend Genova, this loft, or Paola highly enough -- we fell in love with all three. The loft is beautiful, historic, and perfectly located (downtown, 2 minutes to bakeries, stores, and cafes, but tucked away in a sidestreet so it's not too noisy). The loft is spacious and enjoyable. Paola is literally the best hostess -- she gave us recommendations for things to do and places to eat (and they were all incredible -- we give Paola's recommendations five stars). She even went out of her way to help us plan what to do for the rest of our time in Italy (the time outside of Genova). She was so charming and so helpful. We'll remember our stay in Genova fondly and plan to come back as soon as possible to stay again in this incredible location and eat more Genovese pesto! Grazie!!

Buona soluzione vicino all'acquario

La casa è vicina all'acquario e alle principali attrazioni, pulita e ben organizzata. Le scale del palazzo sono molto ripide e pericolose ma dentro si sta bene. Ok per famiglie

Superba

Genoa is just the place to discover, it gets better every time you visit the city. And the historical centre will keep on giving if you are willing to walk across and around it. This means that the location of the apartment is perfect. The facilities of the house are good and the host, Paola, is attent and helpful.
