Room types

Il Caruggio Rooms&Breakfast offers four double rooms with very similar features, designed for short stays or couples’ holidays in the centre of Varazze. All rooms offer a private bathroom with shower, bidet and courtesy set, air conditioning, flat-screen TV with satellite channels and streaming services, plus a refrigerator for storing drinks and small purchases made in town.

The main difference between the room types concerns the size, which ranges between 17 and 19 square metres, and the size of the double bed: three rooms have a large double bed, while the fourth has an extra-large double bed, suitable for those who want a few extra centimetres of sleeping space. All rooms feature a wardrobe, desk, alarm clock and electric kettle for tea or coffee, details that make the stay practical even for longer periods.

Location & what to see

Il Caruggio Rooms&Breakfast is located on Via Mameli, in the heart of the historic alleys of Varazze, just 30 metres from Santa Caterina Beach. The area retains the typical character of the Ligurian caruggio, with colourful houses, shops and venues that liven up the pedestrian streets just a few steps from the sea, a lively yet intimate setting, far from the traffic of the main roads.

Varazze Station can be reached on foot in about one kilometre, convenient for those travelling along the coast towards Genoa or Savona; Genoa-Sestri Airport is about 20 km away and is the most practical reference point for those arriving by plane. The centre of Genoa, with the Aquarium and the historic port, is about 34 km away, a distance that also makes a day trip possible.

Besides the beach right outside, other coves can be reached nearby, such as Paolo Coppa Beach at 400 metres and Bagni Ligure Beach at about 3 km, ideal in summer for those looking for less crowded stretches of coast. Nature lovers can head towards the Beigua Regional Natural Park, about 8 km away, with scenic trails over the Ligurian Apennines suitable for walks and hikes, especially in spring and autumn. In low season the area becomes quieter and is well suited to long walks along the seafront and visits to the villages of the Savona hinterland.

Cafè Gatto Nero — Small venue for breakfast and aperitifs right below the property 20 m
