Columbus Sea Hotel

Just a one night layover between flight in and a cruise out. Hotel was perfect. Easy cab ride from the airport and a quick one to the ship, which we could see from the hotel. Excellent breakfast in an attractive dining room included with the room.

Difficult to find at first. Promised and advertised free parking which we fortunately got and had the last space but if that had gone we would have had no where to park our very expensivr car. Very seedy part of town. Didn't feel safe walking about and felt more relieved about getting a hotel parking space. Nice breakfast buffet. Staff okay. Had to pay city taxes of 2 Euros each upon departure per night. Why wasn't this charged through hotels.com?

Quite a tired hotel, but perfectly acceptable and pretty quiet. Apart from the lorry drivers queuing for the ferry outside who start honking their horns at 6 in the morning. I'm sure the Wi-fi used to be free but now you only get one hour, which isn't very long considering the speed of the connection is on a par with continental drift. The hotel does have its own car park, which is a definite bonus.

Hotel ok. 15-20 minute walk to main part of town. Next time we will look for something closer to the city. Good breakfast. Wireless internet very slow - 1 euro per hour. The satellite internet on the cruise ship was faster. They called for us a taxi for the airport. The meter said 30e but driver charged 40e,then rebated 5e because I complained. Traffic was very heavy. Nice view of the port.

It is a bit out of town, very convenient if you have a car, close to a supermarket and a pizza restaurant. The view is over the Ferries terminal and is close by to the cruise terminal as well. It was OK and it served it's purpose. The breakfast is reasonable, not abundant but with many choices. It was disapointing the fact that the towels despite that were washed up had a sour smell and smelled unclean. Otherwise it was quite OK. There is a extra 2 Euro/per day/per passenger city tax for all hotels in Genoa. Be mindfull of that.

This was an interesting experience. The hotel itself was decidedly old-fashioned, tired and tatty, and we would avoid going back. But the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. We had rooms overlooking the port, so were able to watch the ferries arriving and leaving. I suspect the hotel is mainly used as a transit for ferry passengers. The car park was free, and it was possible to walk into the town centre (about a mile) though the walk itself would not be the most pleasant experience because of the traffic and the raised freeway. Breakfast was good, with gluten free and dairy free options.

Good hotel close to ferries and free parking . You need a car to stay here.We did the Cinque Terre by train from here in 1 day and very enjoyable

THE HOTEL STAFF WAS NICE. THE ROOMS WERE FAIRLY CLEAN. THE CARPET NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THEY HAVE A NICE BREAKFAST BUFFET AND THEY HAVE A NICE AREA ON THE 1ST FLOOR TO RELAX AND PLAY CARDS. THERE IS A SHOPPING AREA NEAR BY WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE. IT IS REMOTE TO THE REST OF TOWN AND HARD TO GET TO. OTHER THAN THAT IT WAS OK.

Overall a good experience

An OK hotel, good location but very drab and stained bedding. 3 star at max but I'm sure they're better places to stay.
