Hotel Bellevue - Genoa

Very good position at the beginning of via Balbi!Very simple to reach both via car and train being it veeeeeeery close to the main Genova train station.A garage is available under the hotel but it cost 18 euro per 24H.The room was good and comfortable(I stayed only one night).A little noisy because close to the street, but I was in a high floor and was not too bad.Staff is good and kind.Breakfast should be definitely improved!

I arrived here in a state of disaster after having my wallet stolen. I was relieved I had chosen somewhere so close to the railway station as i had only a few euro coins in my pocket also that breakfast was included! I spent the whole time there either making phone calls or awaiting them.Hotel staff most helpful.

This was a fantastically friendly welcome. A bit hard to find the property and park the car, a bit noisy (a train station right under the windows), but overall a very good impression. Ideal for young people, travelling a lot. I will certainly come back.

A nice 3 star hotel convenient to the station. We got in quite late from the Barcelona ferry being delayed; thus, we didn't really see as much of the city as we would have liked. Our room overlooked the train station so there was some noise, but tolerable. Easy to find: turn left in front of the station and go up the stairs.

Bellevue was a good choice, especially if you are planning day trips by train. It's right above the station, easily reached. Some have said train noise was a problem. I could hear a bit of rumbling but it wasn't an issue for me. However some rooms were closer to the tracks than mine. Overall I was very satisfied.

Convenient location by the train station, and not a seedy area. Helpful, friendly staff. Great terrace on the 5th floor with a terrific view over the city of Genova. Breakfast was very good and ample.

We stay near a weak, to attend a congres there

Eccessivamente rumoroso dalle 6 di mattina causa vicinanza stazione ferroviaria. Se cmq avete il sonno pesante fa al caso vostro

I chose this hotel as it is located beside the train station and I had an early train to catch the following morning. I mistakenly thought that because I was paying 64euro for one night that this must be a nice hotel, how wrong was I! It is basic in the extreme with very poor out-of-date furnishings. 20euro would have been too much to pay! The staff were polite though.

Great little hotels Iwould stay at them again

The hotel is situated on a rock almost on top of the Genova Railway station. This meant some disturbance from trains and street traffic, but we also had a fine view over the city. The room was spacious and more than adequate for a short stopover. The breakfast was good and good value (included in the room price).

It is too close to train station. Our room was old. It was best for one day stay. Quietness of the rooms are not well. Good air conditioning. The staff at the hotel were very accomodating. Thanks...

It is located at an extremely convenient location. You can see the sign of the hotel from the entrance of the railway station. I requested a quiet room, although the clerk warned me quiet rooms have poor views. The hotel is spotless clean and has a modern design through out. The terrace on the top floor and second floor were pleasant surprise. Genova is a small city and you can walk to most attractions. Furthermore, many small restaurants are present within 5 to 10 minutes walk. This city has all good and bad features of a typical port city. There are crowds of apparently homeless unemployed people in several spots. I was not very comfortable in walking around by myself (female) at night near the railway station and harbour.

The staff at the hotel were very accomodating -we had to check out at 11.00am but were not leaving Genoa until 6.30pm that night - the hotel let us store our luggage free of charge. Very good breakfast for Italy - no hot food but would not have expected to find this anyway. There were rolls, croisants, pastries, two type of cereals, ham, cheese, yoghurts, fresh fruit, tea, coffee and hot chocolate - they were continually being replenished. Our twin room was very spacious - fridge and safety deposit box provided - didn't always get the complimentary water though. Four piece bathroom of shower, toilet, bidet and wash basin - lovely fresh towels each day. Only negative was the width of the shower cubicle - my partner and I are very slim so it did not bother us but it could have been a problem for anyone size 18 and upwards. We came by train so the location was excellent - about 100 metres away on the hill running up the side of the station.

The hotel is very close to Railway station and to the bus stop to airport. It is in the city center and walking distance to the ancient seaport where the famous aquarium and most of the touristic attractions are located. The hotel has nice roof gardens. The staff is kindly, the breakfast good. The only weak point is the quietness of the rooms because they overlook the rail lines.

I WAS TRAVELLING WITH MY WIFE , OUR 3 YEARS OLD SON AND A FRIEND.WE WERE FOR THE FIRST TIME TO GENOA FOR THE TECHNOFOLLIES EXCIBITION.WE LIKED VERY MUCH THE MARINA PLACE WITH AQUARIUM ETC.BUT GENOA IN GENERAL IS AN UGLY,DIRTY CITY, VERY EXPENSIVE.

Hotel Bellevue is in a great location, very close to the railway station and easy to find. The price was reasonable for a middle range hotel. The hotel is also close to the old town and so accessible without effort on foot (up hill though but thats Genova). Not flash but the bathroom was spacious and clean, and bed was comfortable... felt safe.. Reception staff a bit terse on occasion but generally helpful (I spoke no Italian)...

Extremely loud (50 meters from the platform) blinds out of order air conditioning out of order breakfast very poor parking garage: 15-17 EUR/day not worth the money!

L' interazione col staff era buona. La zona non ci e piaciuta.

Quite, clean rooms. Friendly, competent staff. Large breakfast room and plenty to eat. Excellent location if you want to be near the main railroad station. Not necessarily the best location for nightlife. A few restaurants. Can walk to most sites and harbor. We would return to this hotel.

My partner and I had a lovely stay here. It is very close to the train station. The staircase leading up to the hotel is right next to the station which is very convenient but it was a bit tiring especially when you have to carry the heavyload up. Despite that, hotel staff was great and breakfast was plentiful (for us). we would recommend this hotel to anyone (for this price, proximity to station and service)

Very convenient to the rail system.Good breakfast.Good air conditioning. Watch...they said online you could use AMX card but the check in guy said he didn't take it (there was an AMX sticker on window too).Another person checked me out and took american express.

Beautiful view.

It's a good hotel with nice buffet breakfast. Next time I will ask for a room at the last floor because the one we had at the second floor wasn't very quiet. In the night infact, I heared the noise of the train station that is just a little bit under the hotel.

The hotel DOES NOT offer parking, unlike what the website claims. There is a private garage next to the hotel which has its own open hours (closes at night) and costs 15-19 Euros per day. Parking in the nearby streets is hopeless in the rush hours and you must be lucky if you can find a spot to leave the car enought time for chek in. Clean, spacious rooms. Located in a central but certainly less charming area of Genova. Overall impression is positive.

The hotel is so close to the station. And the room is wide, and comfortable.

Its proximity to the main rail station contributes to the noise factor but, otherwise, this is an OK hotel. Nice, helpful staff. Have always enjoyed staying here - good value.

Excellent location near the train station. Easy to find. Great location for sightseeing. Despite being near the train station this was an excellent choice and we would certainly stay there again.

Hotel is very conveniently close to the main train station and an easy walking distance to main parts of central Genoa. The road below the hotel gets busy early and generates noise.

Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig, das Frühstücksangebot sehr gut. Fußweg in die Innenstadt ca. 10 min. Im Allgemeinen hatten wir einen sehr guten Eindruck und würden das Hotel jederzeit weiterempfehlen.

Pas facile pour se garer. Situé très proche de la gare centrale ( Attention , pas de l'autre, sinon on tourne en rond pendant iun moment) Parking payant tout près. Cher ( 15 € pour petite voiture ) mais pas moyen de faire autrement

It´s good hotel for stay, the stairs can be spared out if you use the street. Good breakfastservice. It´s so close to the railway-station and 3 minutes by feet to Marine station.

A good location to see not only Genova, but also more of Liguria (vicinity of the train station, harbour, busses). The rooms are spacious and ok.

Bellevue is a nice small hotel midtown of the very lively center of Genova. Though the hotel is next to the railway station, the city noise is not dramatic, especially in rooms located on the backside of the hotel (I guess a really quiet hotel in Genova is impossible to find!). And the near bus and railway station is definitely a plus (3 min. walking distance), when you like to use public transportation. The staff is friendly, informal and helpful. The cleaning service is exceptional good (especially in comparison to other Italian hotels). The free internet connection is very slow, so better go to the internet Cafe, 5 min walking distance away. Genova is a really beautiful city (not many tourists but a Palazzo at every corner), and the hotel is on the west part of the center. Walking to the east part of the center will take 30 to 40 minutes. All in all I can really recommend this hotel! I would stay there again!

Friendly staff, rooms perfectly adequate and ok for station.

Average 3* hotel in great location if arriving in Genoa by train (150 meters from Stazione Principe). 10 minute walk to cruise ship piers. 15 minute walk to Centro Storico. One has to climb a long flight of stairs from the entrance to reach the very funky lift, so not good for the ambulatorily challenged. Breakfast average to a little above average. I'd stay there again.

La proximité de la gare induit un peu de nuisance sonore et une des fenêtre ne fermait pas

Age & ability may be a concern as the 50meters from the train,as specified,are up a hill or a long flight of stairs;likewise in the hotel,the amount of stairs to climb before and after the use of the elevator in order to get to room.Otherwise, a great hotel and staff!

I enjoyed the location of this hotel. It was close enough to the train station, as I arrived at 1:00 am, yet it did not have the feel of a typical "train station area" hote. I was easy to get around, especially using a bus as I could just get on any one that went to the Principe train station. This was a great help to a single female traveler, especially at night. The only problem I encountered was that the hotel did not fix their E-mail for the clients. The e-mail was not working for my entire stay.

Hotel is basic but adequate and is situated just above the railway station so close your windows completely to avoid the noise. You need a 10 minute walk (or 2 stops on the Metro)to get to the old town and modernised port area. Cinque Terre and Portofino are well worth a visit on the train.

Breakfast is inadequate.

Pleasant overnight stay.Very close to Principe Station, making our onward journey very easy.

Es un hotel antiguo, pero no está mal. Incluye desayuno. Está relativamente céntrico

The nights I stayed, the hotel was not very full (in mid-summer!), so it was very quiet. The interior has much less character and charm than photos of the exterior suggest. The terrace did provide a nice place to enjoy the evening in spite of the view of the working port. Its convenience to Stazione Principe (trains and buses) is exceptional (my reason for choosing it) and the old city isn't too far of a walk, but the neighborhood might be dodgy at night. I would recommend it for convenience, staff and cleanliness, though not for atmosphere.

The breakfast the following day was better than excellent. The triple room was wonderful with a great layout so that we felt comfortable.

Near the P. Principe train statiom. Good quality/price ratio.

The only bad thing was you could hear the trains arrive, but this did not disturb our sleep. We had a balcony overlooking the train depot and the harbor. This would be ideal for staying the night before boarding the train (as it is about 1 block) or a ship (10.00 euro taxi ride), but alas not the airport (25.00 to 30.00 euro taxi ride. The employees were very helpful and all we spoke to spoke good English. We only stayed over night but we enjoyed our walk around town. Had a wonderful meal at a little cafe and visited a couple of museums. I would highly recommend this hotel for its service and price as we ran into 2 other couples from our ship and 1 said they paid 150.00 euro and the other paid 215.00 euro at other hotels in the same area. I cannot comment on the breakfast as we had to leave for the airport at 5:45 AM.

Apart from a lack of knowledge/information about local bus services (they should get a local timetable for guests reference) I enjoyed my stay at this hotel and would stay there again.

Finding the hotel was not really easy (knowing which highway exit to use, i.e. Genova west, would have been useful). Surroundings are so-so, and the quietness in Summer is probably not granted (vicinity of main station, including night trains) if one likes to open the windows. however the rooms are air-conditioned. A pity the parking facilities are so scarce, the ones with space available for rent very expensive and not a guarantee against having your car broken in and visited by burglars. Breakfast was a little disorganised - wonder what it would be in high season! Besides that, great value for money, very pleasant rooms, end very friendly personnel. Ideal location for visiting Genova by foot.
