This is an inconspicuous hotel but it is definitely 5 star. From the moment you walk in you feel very relaxed and welcome. The interior is very eye catching and makes you want to explore everywhere inside. My wife and I were celebrating our honeymoon and our first night we went to the bar for drinks. The bartender Ivan welcomed us with open arms and even made us a little fruit and chocolate flambé to celebrate! The wine options are very good as well. Breakfast was fantastic as there are a ton of options. The fresh fruit juice and pastries were really great. Best bacon we’ve ever had! The service was very attentive as well. Even the dining room itself is appealing. Everything is within walking distance to the hotel. Lots of shopping and food options. The fountain is right down the street and great for photos. The entire city is walkable, with numerous places hidden down alleys. The train station is a little far though and will require a taxi. Would recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in Genoa.

We stayed a couple of nights and loved it. Front desk staff were pleasant, efficient and helpful. The hotel is very centrally located, and just a short stroll from the Old Town. That said the hotel itself was oozing character from a bygone era, albeit now tastefully equipped with all modern conveniences. We'd take one of the elevators to our room, but used to walk down the stairs to admire the architecture and ceiling. The room itself was huge, spotlessly clean and tastefully furnished, with lots of storage. Also had TV, kettle, etc, safe, sofa and a large bathroom attached. Enormous terrace outside with table and two chairs and a view of the street, several stories below. Despite being on the street, the room was exceptionally quiet. One time we exited our room and from the corridor could hear a baby crying in the room next to ours. While in our room we didn't hear anything. We didn't use the restaurant in the hotel, as we went to Old Town for all our meals. If we were returning to Genoa, would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The Bristol Palace is an elegant hotel located in an area where we walked to most of the attractions in Genoa. Shops were right outside the door. The hotel was beautiful with multiple public areas to unwind.Our room was impressive and spotless.So was the whole hotel .The menu at the Giotto restaurant offered a good selection of local dishes to choose from. Our choices of Ligurian pasta and branzino were delicious .The buffet breakfast was excellent.Above all, the service was extremely remarkable .Each of the staff went above and beyond our expectations to make our stay in Genoa memorable. They deserve every single star of the five-star rating of this hotel. Thank you for your excellent service .

I really liked the hotel. It’s beautifully maintained inside, and the staff are very friendly and take their time to assist you. The service was excellent, and everything was exceptionally clean. The only downside is that the walls are not soundproof, but aside from that, it’s a great place to stay.

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. I did not get to try the restaurant Il Giotto, but it seemed like a good bet.

Our room was very undistinguished, surprising given the price and stars. The bad news was that the air conditioning unit was extremely loud. The good news was that the loudness of the unit obscured the sound of snoring from the neighboring room—pretty abysmal sound-proofing. Positives are that the hotel is very convenient to the old town and its many attractions, to some excellent restaurants and the Brignole train station.

The bar staff and service is my only disappointment at this property as the service if any is slow, bar tender barely acknowledged us when entering and we sat for 20 min before he brought over the menu to disappear never to be seen. Unfortunately, we were not able to enjoy a drink before dinner.

Love this hotel, i’ve stayed here for 10 nights over the last couple of years. The hotel takes you back to the heydays of classic 5* hotels with modern subtle touches. The bedrooms are light and airy although there can be a bit of noise from the street into the night, not enough to disrupt sleep (Genoa is a busy city throughout the year) The staff have always been extremely helpful and efficient. Breakfast is served via buffet but with an air of elegance in the 2nd floor dining room.

Because of the prime location however, the hotel only provides valet parking (at a fee). Room was great, as was breakfast. We didn’t try the bar or restaurants so cannot comment. There are plenty of food options available around the hotel, and it felt very safe to walk around during the daytime and evenings.
