Casa MaMa Guesthouse is a family-run guest house in the Sestri Ponente district of Genoa, about 1.9 km from Pegli Beach and just over 1 km from Genoa-Sestri Airport.
The property offers four room types, from the triple with an external private bathroom to double and single solutions with shared facilities, all equipped with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a coffee machine; some units also offer a balcony and city view, a detail appreciated by those staying for several days.
Guests will find free parking, WiFi throughout the property and an airport shuttle on request, as well as an Italian breakfast served buffet-style. The Sestri Ponente area, with the railway station just steps away and several restaurants and bars nearby, makes Casa MaMa Guesthouse a practical base for those who want to move easily towards both the historic centre and the sea.
Casa MaMa Guesthouse offers four room types designed for different needs, from families looking for a triple solution to solo travellers. All rooms are air-conditioned and equipped with a flat-screen TV and a coffee machine, elements that ensure a good level of comfort even in the simpler solutions with shared bathroom.
The main difference between the rooms concerns privacy and space: the Triple Room with External Private Bathroom is the largest, at 20 sqm with a private bathroom, while the other three units, between 11 and 14 sqm, share the bathroom facilities on the floor and stand out for their balcony and city view, present in the double, double bed and single rooms. The choice between single beds or a large double bed allows the room to be adapted to the type of stay, whether as a couple or individually.
The largest room in the property, with 20 sqm of space and a private bathroom, albeit external to the room. It accommodates up to three people thanks to the combination of a single bed and a large double bed, and is equipped with a flat-screen TV with streaming services, air conditioning and a coffee machine. It is the only room type with a private bathroom, ideal for families or small groups who prefer more privacy compared to the solutions with shared facilities.
The most compact solution in the guesthouse, designed for solo travellers. At 11 sqm it is the smallest room available, but it offers a balcony with a city view, air conditioning and a coffee machine. The bathroom with shower is shared with other rooms on the floor. A practical and affordable choice for short stays in the city.
Designed for two people, this 14 sqm double room features a large bed, a balcony with a view and a complimentary toiletry set in the shared bathroom, which also includes a bidet and hairdryer. Air conditioning and a coffee machine complete the amenities, making it a balanced choice between space and price for couples travelling together.
Identical in size to the double room but with a twin bed configuration, this room is designed for those who prefer to sleep separately, such as friends or colleagues travelling together. The balcony offers a city view, while air conditioning and a coffee machine are included as in the other room types; the bathroom with shower remains shared.
Casa MaMa Guesthouse offers amenities designed to make the stay practical, starting with street parking and free WiFi available throughout the property. An airport shuttle can be requested, useful given the proximity to Genoa-Sestri Airport, while guests travelling with pets can count on dedicated bowls.
