Our Guest House ...

Staying at La Ciassetta means being immersed in the most authentic and historic heart of Genoa, surrounded by some of the city’s most iconic landmarks. The characteristic caruggi of the historic center, with their artisan shops, churches, and noble palaces, tell the story of Genoa’s mercantile and maritime soul and naturally lead to the evocative Old Port, now one of the city’s main cultural and tourist hubs.

Just a short walk away are the Genoa Aquarium, the Galata Maritime Museum, and the Children’s City, along with the historic Palazzo San Giorgio, a symbol of Genoa’s maritime power. Continuing toward the city center, guests can reach the majestic Cathedral of San Lorenzo, Palazzo Ducale, and Piazza De Ferrari, the vibrant heart of city life.

From here, Via Roma and Via XX Settembre unfold as elegant avenues of shopping and 19th-century architecture, while nearby lies Via Garibaldi, the ancient Strada Nuova, renowned for its magnificent Rolli Palaces, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, including Palazzo Rosso, Palazzo Bianco, and Palazzo Doria Tursi.

The experience is completed by charming historic squares such as Piazza Banchi with the Loggia della Mercanzia, monumental churches like San Pietro in Banchi and the Basilica of the Annunziata del Vastato, and panoramic views from Spianata di Castelletto, offering breathtaking vistas over the city and the sea.

All these attractions are easily reachable on foot from La Ciassetta, making it the ideal starting point to discover Genoa in an authentic, cultural, and evocative way.
