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.

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.
