We have just returned home having spent 4 nights at this hotel. It is very difficult to be too critical or too full of praise. We had a quad room split level which was fine (although the stairs between floors were dicey!) but room was ok.i liked the kitchenette with no cooking utensils etc! We were like ghost guests. We...

This is now the CIT Hotel Britannia. The best thing about this hotel is its location on Via Baldi, a Unesco World Heritage Site and also a pretty central place from which to explore this amazing city. Oh, wait, that might be the only good thing to say about this property. Except, maybe, the configuration of its loft-style rooms. Once... More

The hotel is in a great location, near the Principe Station, handy if you arrive by train, less if you have a car around because it is very difficult to find parking. Although it was presented as a four-star hotel, the room was furnished with older furniture, yet functional but unpretentious. A part of the hotel was being renovated, and... More

This is one of the most confusing hotels that I have had to review and I even have had to double check it is the one that we actually stayed at! My booking stated Cit hotel and that was what we were looking for when we arrived in Genoa. There is a small sign outside the hotel with Cit hotel... More

After travelling for 2 weeks round northern Italy in various B&Bs and hostels, I thought I'd treat myself to a decent hotel in Genoa, my last destination on my trip. Looking at various reviews, the Standard Hotel (now called Cit Hotel) fitted my requirements perfectly. To preface a 3 star rating - one might think this is a fairly average... More

likes: wide variety for breakfast, spacious rooms, running track in the fitness room, sauna, good location (close to the train station) dislikes: the receptionist had agreed to give us the room that we had seen. When we came, he had 'some problems' with the room and gave us another. The air-conditioning did not work. We demanded chaning the room, he... More

This hotel is very well located, near the central station in Genoa (100m). The thing is it was not well indicated (does not state Standard Hotel on the front, but another name). The staff was very friendly and helpful for everything. They also speak english and french. The room and shower were clean. The beds are comfy and there is... More

LOCATION: This hotel is very conveniently located to the central station in Genoa (100m), and about 20 minutes walk to/from the cruise terminal. It's centrally located within Genoa, so convenient to most places and if transport is needed, that is right nearby. FRONT OF HOUSE SERVICE: Staff at the hotel were pleasant, although often busy. We arrived early in the... More
