Il Corso is a guest house in Santa Margherita Ligure, in Liguria, located on Corso Matteotti just 900 metres from the town beach. The property features a terrace and offers rooms and an apartment designed for short or extended stays in the centre of this Golfo del Tigullio town.
Each room has air conditioning, a desk, a flat-screen TV, a private bathroom, bed linen, towels and a balcony with city views; some room types also offer a kitchen with a stovetop and microwave, while a refrigerator is provided in all of them. The offer includes the Deluxe Room, more compact and with a single double bed, and the Deluxe Apartment, larger and arranged with a separate living area, ideal for families or small groups.
The central location makes it possible to reach the restaurants, bars and shops along the corso on foot, while Castello Brown and the Abbey of San Fruttuoso are just a few kilometres away. WiFi is free throughout the property, while private parking is available for a fee. A solution particularly appreciated by couples, who especially praise its location.
Il Corso offers two types of accommodation designed for different needs: the Deluxe Room, a compact solution for two people, and the Deluxe Apartment, larger and suited to families or small groups thanks to a separate living area. Both solutions share air conditioning, soundproofed walls, a private bathroom and a balcony with city views, elements that guarantee a good level of comfort regardless of the type chosen.
The Deluxe Room, at 25 sqm, is furnished with a large double bed and a bathroom with a shower, designed for those looking for a practical pied-à-terre in the centre of Santa Margherita Ligure. The Deluxe Apartment, at 50 sqm, instead offers a separate bedroom with a double bed, a living room with a sofa bed, a fully equipped kitchen with stovetop, refrigerator and microwave, tiled floors and a washing machine: a more self-sufficient solution for longer stays or for those travelling with others.
The more compact of the two solutions offered by Il Corso, designed for two people. Featuring air conditioning, soundproofed walls and a private bathroom with a shower, it stands out for its balcony with city views, ideal for those looking for a practical base in the historic centre without the need for extra space such as a kitchen or living room.
Twice the size of the Deluxe Room, with a bedroom separate from the living room: this is where the property’s only full kitchen is found, with a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave and washing machine. The city view and tiled floors complete a space designed for families or groups of up to four people.
Il Corso is designed for those seeking a practical stay in the centre of Santa Margherita Ligure, with amenities that favour comfort and independence. Each room is air-conditioned and soundproofed, with a private bathroom featuring a shower or bathtub, hairdryer, bed linen and towels, as well as a desk and a flat-screen TV with internet connection.
The property offers a balcony and terrace, with nearby parking options and free WiFi throughout. The marble or tiled floors and the complete absence of smoking, both in the rooms and in the common areas, contribute to a tidy and well-kept environment.
For those staying in the Deluxe Apartment, a fully equipped kitchen with refrigerator, stovetop and microwave is also available, useful for those who prefer to manage their meals independently during their stay on the Ligurian riviera.
Il Corso is located on Corso Matteotti, in the pedestrian centre of Santa Margherita Ligure, just steps from shops, bars and restaurants such as Trattoria San Siro and La Madia, both about 50 metres away. The town beach is just 900 metres away, while Parco del Flauto Magico, ideal for a stroll, is 550 metres from the property.
