Talk about value for money! A very nice 3 bedroom B&B with a roof terrace in the Old Town of Genoa. Large, modern and clean rooms. Excellent service and a friendly and service minded owner. It is on the 4th floor without elevator, so you have to walk up the 105 steps! But it is worth it.

Superb
Posted 13 Apr 2016Stylish hideaway in the centro storico next door to the splendid Palazzo Spinola. Knowledgeable host Emi gave great advice about where to visit in Genoa and along the coast. My room was quiet and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious. Could not recommend the quarto piano highly enough. Will be back soon.

Beautiful apartment, very strange location
Posted 20 Jul 2015
Pros: It's beautiful inside and the owner is friendly. Location is convenient although, to be honest, we weren't that impressed with Genoa.
Cons: Make it easier to find perhaps with a plaque on the wall downstairs.
We were looking for a stopover in Genoa and found this place on-line. It was very difficult to find in person as the party of Genoa is like a rabbit warren of small streets that GPS goes crazy in trying to find. When we eventually found it, there was a prostitute sitting outside in broad daylight and then quite a hot walk uop many flights of stairs. However, the set of apartments themselves are beautiful and very tastefully decorated... we felt extremely comfortable and safe there with a great breakfast too.

A home from home
Posted 14 May 2015 on HotelsWe had a wonderful time in Genoa and Emilia is a caring and lovely host. Nothing was too much trouble, from recommending places to visit or eat to printing off the timings and route of the Giro d'Italia stage we had come to see. The room was very comfortable and the bed enormous. There were loads of toiletries in the bathroom and water in the fridge.
The breakfast was very good and we enjoyed catching up with Emilia each day for a natter.
The location takes a bit of getting used to; its in quite a maze of tight little alleyways and streets and is a real mixing pot of cultures but after the initial apprehension we felt perfectly safe.
I had thought that Quartopiano meant "four pianos" but actually means "fourth floor" so be prepared for the climb up the stairs - we counted each evening and depending on how good the refreshments had been it varied between 105 and 108 steps! I feel a lot fitter.
If we ever go back to Genoa I would not hesitate to stay here again rather than in an impersonal chain hotel.

Fourth Floor - Quartopiano
Posted 6 Feb 2015
Pros: The way I was treated.
Cons: If they could get an elevator...
Location: The location is right on the Genova Center but It was a little hard to find.
And they mean it. There's no elstairevator but, after going upstais through high-cealing stair case old mansion, you will be surprised by the cordiality and cosiness of this place.

A Surprise packet
Posted 17 Sep 2012
Pros: Decor
Cons: Hard to find it
Location: Very historical and interesting, but a bit scarey at night
I thought the quality of the interior decoration and furnishings in this hotel were brilliant. Best I have seen. It was modern, functional and oozed class and style. I was also impresses with the service - in particular the breakfast.
However, there are a couple of things people need to be aware of. Firstly, this hotel is in an old part of Genoa, and the streets are so narrow that the cab driver couldn't take me all the way to the hotel. Secondly, the hotel is not marked out on the street, which can make the hotel diifficult to find. It has no lift, so you have to carry bags up to the fourth floor. It is not a hotel that I would recommend to anyone who will arrive late at night. However, once you get there you will find it a haven.
