“Hotel Boccascena impresses with its modern interiors, a refreshing contrast to its unassuming exterior; plus, the complimentary breakfast is a thoughtful touch. While a 20-minute walk to the old port, the Brignole Station is conveniently close, and valet parking eases arrivals. I'd say this hotel provides solid value in a great Genoa location.”
