Hotel is dated, decor is tired and facilities not as clean as I would like, but for the price and location it is a winner. Staff are friendly and useful, there is a lift and wifi is free. Overall, very satisfied, just wish it could have had a scrub before we arrived.

Stayed for one night with my girlfriend and enjoyed our stay. The staff are very friendly and speak good English. The location was great very close to all the sights and plenty of good bars and restaurants and for the price you can deal with the room being average

this owner run hotel is central, clean and comfortable. The big plus of going to a smaller owner run establishment is that you get the personal service. They smile and seem genuinly pleased to help you. It is very central and within walking distance to most attractions in the old town. The only "down" is the lift which is small,... More

I stayed 1 night with my boyfriend while visiting Genova. Staff is very polite and helpful. No internet in my room, just in the corridor and restaurant. Hotel is located in the best place of Genova, full of shops and close to Cristovam Columbus´ house. Many good restaurants around. I would come back for sure.

We stayed here for one night and it was perfect for us, very close to the train and to all the major sights. The hotel room was simple and clean and the bed was very comfortable. The people at the B&B were very helpful and the price was great!

We stayed here for two nights and had a great room with a balcony (I think the only room that had one). Even though the room was small, it was comfortable and clean. The bathroom was also small but clean and had everything you would need. The location was perfect right downtown and easy to walk to everything. We had... More

A great location minutes from the metro. On a great eating and shopping street. The hotel building itself was amazing. You take a small vintage looking elevator to the hotel or can take the steps. The rooms are spacious the showers warm and the views from the window great. Decent two star with wifi. Location and price cant be beat.... More

Our family (couple and 2 adult children) stayed at Hotel Soana in April 2012 for 2 nights. We wanted to see a bit of Genoa, but our main purpose in staying there was to have a full day in Cinque Terra.This worked out very well as the hotel is a short walk to the Brignole train station to catch the...

The hotel has a 1am curfew in which they lock you in and out. Wifi although free only worked in the reception area and not in the rooms. The receptionist was unhelpful and the rooms and hotel in general where pretty old and uninspiring. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Dear Mr Richard, we are sorry you were disappointed with the hotel and to notice your negative report about our property. Sometime our policy about the closing time ( so-called curfew ) , well described in all on -line web sites , is misunderstood or not well read and this create some small clash at check- in time. We wish... More

We stayed there for one night last August. The hotel is located in the centre of Genoa. We could go everywhere by feet. The building is old as well as the rooms but we had a good night sleep.I don't know whether I would choose it for a long stay but certainly for a short stay is a very good... More
