B&B Archi di Borgolungo is a bed and breakfast located in the heart of Chiavari, just 900 metres from the beach and a short walk from the railway station, reachable in about 300 metres on foot. The property is set on Piazza San Giovanni, in the historic centre, among the porticoes that give the town its name, and a short walk from restaurants, bars and cafés in the old town.
The two available rooms, the Superior Double and the Double, offer city views, heating, flat-screen TV and a tea and coffee set, with a private bathroom in the Superior type. The rooms are designed for a simple, well-kept stay, ideal for those visiting the Tigullio as a couple or with children.
Among the property’s services are free WiFi, Italian breakfast and non-smoking common areas. The central location makes it possible to reach the harbour, the public gardens and Parco Casa Charitas on foot, while Casa Carbone and the Torre del Borgo are a few kilometres away, making the B&B a good base for exploring the eastern Riviera.
The B&B offers two room types, both with city views overlooking the historic centre of Chiavari: the Superior Double Room, at 18 square metres, and the Double Room, cosier at 15 square metres. Both feature a large double bed, heating, a wardrobe and a flat-screen TV, plus a tea and coffee corner that makes even an informal breakfast in the room practical.
The main difference lies in the bathroom facilities: the Superior has a private bathroom with shower and bidet, while the standard Double shares the bathroom with other guests at the property, while still offering a size suitable for a couple’s stay.
