“Hotel Palazzo Grillo, housed within a meticulously restored Renaissance palace, offers a stylish retreat just removed from the bustle of Genoa's historic center; its location on Piazza della Vigne provides a welcome calm. I appreciate the blend of historic architecture with contemporary design, evident in the building's UNESCO World Heritage status and the thoughtfully appointed rooms. While lacking a full restaurant, the attentive staff and proximity to local eateries more than compensate, creating an intimate and convenient base for exploring the city.”

Excellent stay in historical building

The staff printed work documents for me and prebooked a cab. They also moved our bags when we switched rooms (which was very helpful). I enjoyed the breakfast room. The option to eat on the terrace in good weather is a real plus.
The absence of nearby parking was a bit inconvenient. I had to walk a short distance with my luggage.

Adequate Stay in a Historic Building

top floorbreakfastgreat locationsmall roomfaulty air conditioninglounge service
The breakfast on the top floor offered lovely views over the rooftops. The location was great for exploring the area. I particularly enjoyed the sitting room, with frescoes and photography books.
The hotel's front area is a bit deceiving. The rooms were quite small. The air conditioning did not work, so the lounges were warm. These lounges also lacked bars or drink service.
