Gaslini vicinissimo – Casa dello Zio is a guest house in Genoa, in the Sturla district, about 300 metres from Sturla Beach and a few minutes’ walk from the seafront.
The property offers guests a shared terrace, non-smoking rooms and free WiFi throughout all areas. The two available room types are air-conditioned and equipped with a desk, electric kettle, refrigerator, microwave, safe, flat-screen TV and private bathroom with bidet; one of the two also offers a balcony with sea view and access to a private terrace. Soundproofed walls help ensure quiet stays even in rooms facing the interior.
The location in Sturla is particularly appreciated by couples, with short distances to restaurants, bars and Genova Quarto dei Mille railway station. The Aquarium of Genoa and the historic centre remain reachable within a few minutes by public transport or car, making the property a practical base for those who want to alternate between the seaside and city visits.
The rooms at Gaslini vicinissimo – Casa dello Zio span approximately 15 square metres each and share amenities designed for couples’ stays: air conditioning, private bathroom with bidet, flat-screen TV, safe, refrigerator, electric kettle and microwave. Soundproofed walls help maintain privacy even in a building with multiple units, while a wardrobe is present in every room for storing luggage during the stay.
The main difference between the two room types concerns the view: the Deluxe Double Room stands out for its balcony with sea view and access to its own terrace, ideal for those who want to breathe the air of the nearby Ligurian sea even from their own room. The standard Double Room, without this view, compensates with an indoor dining area and access to a washing machine, useful for longer stays.
The Deluxe Double Room is the only one of the two room types with a balcony and sea view, as well as a private terrace facing outward, perfect for those seeking direct contact with the air of Sturla. Air-conditioned and soundproofed, it features a private bathroom with shower, flat-screen TV, safe and wardrobe, along with the essential comforts for a couple’s stay.
Compared to the Deluxe, this room has no balcony or sea view, but offers an indoor dining area and access to a washing machine, useful for those staying in Genoa for several days. The private bathroom is equipped with both a shower and a bidet, while the soundproofed walls and the tea and coffee kettle complete a practical and well-equipped solution.
