Location & what to see

Doria House 23 is located in the district that develops around Via Pagano Doria, a short walk from Principe station, in an area of Genoa rich in historic palaces and still close to the city waterfront. The street the property overlooks is characterised by period buildings and a typical urban fabric of the historic centre, with neighbourhood shops, bars and small restaurants just a few minutes’ walk away.

The location is convenient for those getting around without a car: Principe metro station is about 250 metres away, Dinegro station is 550 metres away, while Genoa Piazza Principe railway station is practically adjacent to the property. Genoa-Sestri Airport is about 4.4 km away, reachable in a few minutes by car or public transport. On foot, within a radius of 500-800 metres, you’ll find Palazzo Reale, the Sanctuary of San Francesco da Paola and several restaurants such as Pizzeria da Lino and Al Solito Posto.

Those staying here can spend their days visiting Genoa’s historic centre: the Galata Museo del Mare is 650 metres away, the Genoa Aquarium about 1.1 km, and D’Albertis Castle, with its panoramic park, 600 metres away.
