Just a stone's throw away from the sea, this smart apartment is a great gateway to the historic city of Genoa. Ideal for a solo traveller, couple, or even a small family, it puts you right in the heart of all the action. There's a nautical theme running through the apartment, reflecting its location and the city's maritime history. You can admire the ocean-inspired painting, along with the subtle blue colour scheme and statement light fixture, moulded in the shape of an anchor. And, the apartment has everything intrepid guests need to relax between their adventures – whip up your favourite dishes in the smart kitchen, before curling up in the crisp sheets for a great night's sleep. You'll love exploring the surrounding old town, with its family-run restaurants, hidden piazzas and historic churches – San Lorenzo Cathedral is just a ten-minute walk away. Kids and adults alike will love learning at the aquarium and the Biosfera, both an eighteen-minute walk away. And, if a day trip is in order, then you must head to lovely Portofino – the charming seaside town is fifty minutes away by car.
