Excellent Stay

Staff were friendly and very helpful particularly all the girls at reception. Hotel is ideally placed in the centre of the old town with the only drawback that taxis can only get to the Piazza Competto which is 50 meters away so you have to wheel your luggage that 50m.

Convenient location. Walkable to many attractions. Rooms are fine but staff and its service is the star. Everyone at the hotel were helpful and go beyond the normal to ensure a fantastic experience. One recommendation is once you’re in a taxi to the hotel; call the hotel to coordinate drop off location. Hotel is in a historic area with limited taxi access but the staff will help to secure your arrival.

What a beautiful place to stay, seeped in history, right in the heart of the old town. We had a fantastic time with friendly staff, a clean, comfortable, air conditioned room. Some of the smaller ally streets can feel a little unsafe but if you stick to the main ones it was great :)

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.

Beautifully restored palazzo in the center of old town. From the lobby to the room to the other common areas, the feel, decor and design was stunning. Service was generally excellent as well. Great location from which to explore all the Old Town sites and get lost in the maze of alleys. Gran Ristoro, a phenomenal, tiny sandwich shop is a three-minute walk away and a must visit for foodies. There isn’t any parking in the Old Town, but there is convenient self-parking a few minutes walk away at the port. We would definitely choose Palazzo Grillo again if we return to Genoa.

We have booked the standard room but uplon arrival we realized that it was very basic on a level that needs more love to make it welcoming. We paid an additional 50 euros directly to the hotel for an upgrade for the Junior room which was nice. The breakfast is good and includes a wide selection of products.

Historic building brought to into the modern era in a tasteful and sympathetic way. The addition of a small bar within the hotel (perhaps added to the roof terrace) would add value to guests not wanting to venture far on an evening following a day of exploring.
