Genoa
a city to be heard

So many stories have lived and still live in the alleyways of Genoa.
So many verses have been dedicated to the ‘superb’ city by the greatest intellectuals like Montale, De André, Calvino and Nietzsche.

Genoa is made up of the many stories that the city whispers to curious travellers.
Listen to them carefully to discover the most magical essence of this city.
With the support and recommendations of the Hotel Astoria staff, you can experience activities that will allow you to discover the most fascinating treasures of Genoa and its surroundings.

THE
SURPRISING
PORT

IT’S AS IF GENOA DIDN’T HAVE JUST ONE PORT, BUT THOUSANDS,
AS MANY AS THE ATTRACTIONS IN THE AREA.

At the port of Genoa we don’t just find the Aquarium, the most famous and largest in Europe, but there is much more waiting to be discovered.
The famous Lantern, symbol of the city, the Maritime Museum, the Biosphere, Città dei Ragazzi (City of Kids) and Fantacinema.
If you still have time, get a feel for the world of buccaneers aboard the vessel Neptune, or explore a real-life submarine on Nazario Sauro.

SUPERB GENOA
BETWEEN
ART AND MUSEUMS

SUPERB:  THIS IS WHAT FRANCESCO PETRARCH LOVED TO CALL GENOA TO DESCRIBE ITS CULTURAL AND MORAL STATURE. AND SUPERB IT HAS REMAINED.

So the time has come to check in, store your luggage and get lost in the maze of alleyways in the historic centre. Discover Christopher Columbus’ house, the D’Albertis Castle, the Modern Art Gallery, the frescoes of Palazzo San Giorgio as well as Via XX Settembre, the Cloister of Sant'Andrea, the Palazzi dei Rolli, the exhibitions of Palazzo Ducale and much more.

CINQUE TERRE:
FIVE LANDS,
ONE LOVE

POETRY, THE SMELL OF THE SEA, NATURE, AND HOSPITALITY
ARE WHAT DISTINGUISH THE CINQUE TERRE

These 5 coastal towns in Liguria were added to the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites in 1997. The staff at Hotel Astoria are always delighted to create ad hoc routes and itineraries to guide you in the discovery of this magical coastline.
