Silvia
In the heart of the fantastic historic center of Genoa and Unesco World Heritage Site, this charming studio is located on the penultimate floor with lift of the prestigious Palazzo Boggiano Gavotti, a 17th century building that is part of the Rolli system, historic houses that they begged to host the highest Italian and foreign nobility passing through Genoa.
Silvia, the owner, is a dynamic thirty-year-old girl who loves to receive his guests in the apartment and make them feel pampered. She will be happy to advise you about the attractions of Genoa, the places to visit, the best local restaurants in the area, the shops etc.
The location is strategic, colse to the Cathedral, the Old Harbor, the Aquarium, the museums and palaces of Via Garibaldi (Strada Nuova) and the shopping streets. The apartment is well served by the metro line (San Giorgio stop) which in a few minutes connects it to the two main railway stations of P. Principe and P. Brignole. Forget the car and get confused among the people into the maze of alleys of the Old Town; among the perfumes of spices and aromatic herbs from the shops of Canneto il Lungo, treat yourself to a good plate of fragrant farinata just baked in the ancient frying shops of Sottoripa. From here you can also take day trips by sea to discover the treasures of the Riviera: Portofino, Camogli, the Cinque Terre. You just have to cross Piazza Caricamento to find, docked at the pier, the boats ready to take you to these beautiful places. The more adventurous can devote themselves to "whale watching" towards the Riviera di Ponente. In the evening, the historic center comes alive with a thousand inviting places where it is pleasant to end the day by chatting over a good glass of Sciacchetrà.
