Bristol Palace Hotel
My stay at Bristol Palace was nearly perfect! The personnel is extremely courteous, helpful, eager to make sure your stay goes as well as possible. I extended my stay for a 3rd night and was upgraded to a double room, which was more spacious. Rooms are very clean, quiet, water pressure is wonderful. ...

Hotel Continental Genova
Best breakfast buffet we've had in Europe. The whole facility was extremely clean and the spa was wonderful after a long day of sightseeing. Staff was very friendly and very accommodating to our requests, such as a late check out. It was a wonderful stay.

Starhotels President
It was close to everything. Breakfast was delicious. The hotel rooms could use a bit of renovation. The lobby doesn't represent the rooms. The A/C doesn't cool. We ended up opening the window. The staff were very friendly and helpful

Tower Genova Airport Hotel & Conference Center
Would give 5 stars but hotel is a little bit neglected but worth the price. It used to be Sheraton, so rooms are big, well appointed, clean. Staff very helpful. Breakfast good. An underground garage is a real plus.
