Le stanze della Lanterna is located on Via Galata, in the Brignole district, one of Genoa’s most lively hubs, a short walk from cafés such as Caffè Rolando (40 m) and restaurants like Stallone (20 m) and Re Naya (100 m). The area is both residential and commercial, lively during the day and well connected to the rest of the city.
Genoa Brignole Station is just 300 metres away, while the Brignole metro station is 400 metres away: from here, the historic centre and Piazza De Ferrari, the beating heart of the city, can be reached in a few minutes, about 800 metres away. The Genoa Aquarium is 1.4 km away, Punta Vagno Beach is 2.2 km away, and Genoa-Sestri Airport is about 6 km away. Those arriving by car or train will therefore find the property a convenient base for exploring the city without needing their own transport.
Genoa has plenty to offer all year round: in the warmer months, the beaches of Boccadasse and Vernazzola, both within 3.5 km, are perfect for a seaside break, while in every season it’s worth visiting the caruggi of the historic centre, Porta Soprana (800 m), Palazzo Ducale and Palazzo Rosso, among the city’s main museums. The Spianata Castelletto, a scenic viewpoint about 950 metres away, offers a sweeping view over the port and the old town, particularly striking at sunset.
