Quaint old hotel in the backstreets of Genoa, but the owner manager if probably the rudest most inhospitable hotelier we have ever met. They forget who is the customer unfortunately and front desk staff not communicating with each other for any changes. A pity as the location is interesting. We will not return. More

I've been here several time for business. It's very well located for tourism because it's in the heart of Genova. Recently I've also been here with my family and the staff was friendly. I do suggest to keep rooms overlooking via di Porta Soprana because are nicer. The rooms are different in shape and it's amazing to discover how is... More

When an hotel is furnished with love, there's no need of many stars. The owner says it's here "third son", and that's says it all. You wouldn't expect it from the outside. Also the morning breackfast makes the view of the nice nice, and you wouldn't expect it. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? More

We had a delightful stay at this hotel over the New Year. The Hotel has a fantastic ovation right in the centre of Genova, easy walking distance from the sights, shops, bars, and restaurants. Each of the rooms is uniquely designed by the owner and full of nice eclectic touches. Breakfast is served on a rooftop terrace overlooking the roofs... More

Location: This hotel is right on the border between Genoa's centro storico and the major shopping avenues. So whatever you want to do is mere steps outside your door. There are also a couple of cute bars on the street. Room: Our room was clean, bright (ask for a room in the front) and comfortable (we had a real queen-size... More

A small hotel in a very convenient location just off the Piazza de Ferrari and walking distance to the main historical sights. Our room was stylishly decorated in an eclectic fashion, even though there was a slightly unfinished air to it. The staff were friendly and helpful. There's a pleasant roof top terrace where a decent continental breakfast is served.... More

Excellent hotel in perfect location in the old town. Not the cheapest place to stay but the rooms are all quirky and individual with a lovely feel to the place. Very friendly staff and great rooftop terrace where breakfast is served. We asked for a quiet room at the back and it was very peaceful. Highly recommended. More

After the monotony of business hotels, the Colombo is so refreshing. Not the cheapest, but certainly individual, very comfortable and an excellent location on the edge of the medieval quarter. Our group took over most of the hotel so we were able to compare rooms; each floor and each room has its own quirky theme and is tastefully refurbished. The... More

For the price we paid, Hotel Colombo was a steal! It is located in the historic center of Genova on a wide, well-lit street (we felt very safe walking to the hotel at night). It is walking distance from all the major attractions including the aquarium and the Palazzo Ducale, and it is about a fifteen minute walk from the... More

I really loved the Colombo. Apart from the cowhide rug on the floor - yuk - our room 'numero uno' on the third floor overlooking the via Porta Soprana was excellent. The staff were all friendly and chatty, and I can't imagine a better location. The roof-top terrace is a perfect spot to have a couple of drinks while looking... More
