CIT Hotels Britannia - Genoa

friendly and helpful crew. clean and affordable hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

For an old hotel building that was upgraded, it was as expected. Elevator was "iffy" and parking cost expensive (20 euros/night) but location was convenient, the bed not too hard, and bathroom amenities excellent. We would stay there again.

Well located within waling distance of the old port area. Close to the Principe station. Good restaurants in the neighborhood....overall a good choice for us.

So easy to get to from the Genoa Principle train station and very nice staff, food was good and very quiet courtyard facing room.

Our stay at Cit Hotel Brittania (Genova) was all that we could have asked for. It was clean, very close to the train station and the port, and had an excellent breakfast that was included in the price. All of the staff members were more than helpful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

A very good breakfast (included), a quiet room (well-soundproofed windows), very clean, very efficient staff, and ideal location (3 minute walk to main train station -- Piazza Principe). Lots of snack bars and restaurants right around restaurant. A great hotel at a great price!

Genuine Expedia guest review

Good location and good price, if you travel in train.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very nice hotel. Room was great and hotel had additional amenities including workout room and jacuzzi . Breakfast was very good. We liked location to station because it was a quick 5 minute walk to check in but we also used train to visit beach town of Camolgi so we were able to enjoy our day trip with no commuting problems. Harbor is about 10 to 15 […] minute walk. We would stay here again. Read more

Amazing everything! Cheap and good!!! I am from argentina buenos aires and I think the hotel was great!!!

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel is very dated and needs to be refurnished. While we were there, only one elevator worked so a lot of time was spent trying to get up or down stairs. Close to train station but a 15 minute walk to either the port or the old city.

Stay away. This hotel is in an area with many hotels near the center of the city. Very dangerous and dirty area. Hard to get to with a car. Very poor internet and only in the lobby. Small TV, though it really didn't matter. Breakfast was small and nothing to write home about. Again, stay away....

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Carpets were dirty and daybed was BROKEN, making it incapable of sleeping our entire party. We paid for 5 people in the room, but towels & other toiletry supplies were provided for only 2-3 people. The breakfast, however, was very nice; and the hotel is close to the train station and within walking distance to the waterfront and aquarium.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel changed its name from Standard Hotel to Soglia Hotel in March and apprarently underwent a major upgrade at that time, since it bears little resemblance to the Standard Hotel as reviewed on the hotels.com website. Our room was quiet, very spacious and beautifully furnished. Our only complaint was that it was unusually hot and humid in Genova […] and the air conditioning did not cool the room quite as much as we would have liked. The location near the train station is convenient, although the neighborhood is not particularly attractive. Read more

Staff was friendly and helpful. The television should be updated to a flat screen with satellite channels. Wi'Fi in the room would be nice. Great place to stay for the price. The breakfast was good.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very good price, excellent location, very friendly people, good restaurant. They are upgrading televisions, but if you're not in town to watch tv (I hope this), this is a really safe bet.

This hotel is excellent and the price is very good

Pleasant hotel next to a rail-way station, very close to the shopping center.

Genuine Expedia guest review

It is within walking distance if you our going on a MSC cruise. With three people we had a upstairs and downstair room with a kitchette. Alot of space for the money.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very good hotel, near principal train station( Principe)

Genuine Expedia guest review

The Standard Hotel was a great value for our one night stay. The location was very convenient for trains or the cruise port. And all of historic Genoa is a walking distance. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We also really enjoyed the breakfast buffet which was included. The room was clean and comfortable. I thought the bed looked like it would […] not be comfortable, but I slept great. Read more

Good for 1 or day's stay. Hotel staff very helpful with English speaking travelers. Walked from Principe Train Station with baggage to the hotel. Neighborhood reasonable. convenient location

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Nice room, but way too hot without airconditioner, and too noisy if you open the window. Location is super close to train station and walking distance to center. That was my requirements for that night :)

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is in a nice location, within 50 meters of a train station and from there you can go almost anywhere in Italy or near surrounding area. Most of the historical areas of the city can be reached by walking from hotel. Not many restaurants near the hotel. The air conditionning was not working during our stay there.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Stayed at the hotel twice with 1 week in between. Both times air condition was not workin and both times the staff promised to have it fixed within hours.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel had a great location if you are coming in on train. Easy walk. Neighborhood a little "seedy". Was fine for a night or two.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

one ancient elevator worked, carpet looked old and stained in lobby and halls. shower would not stay up high, one window would not open, thermostat didn't function in room as it was supposed to.

the hotel is located about 50 m from the main train station in Genova, Italy. You walk straight out of the Principe Station past the Christopher Columus statue down the road and it's on your right. Booking with Expedia got me a great room on the 6th floor.

While the hotel is OK, its location right near the train station and in the beautiful medieval labyrinth of Genoa was beautiful and always surprising. Its not the most salubrious of areas, but full of delights. I loved Genoa.

Breakfast had not much choice and the rooms were a bit dingey. The staff were very nice and helpful though!!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

excellent

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

A real bargain. Clean, safe and friendly, with a great breakfast. The decor was a bit 80s and the advertised teamaking facilities were in the breakfast room.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The "extra person fee" or so the guy at the front desk called it should not even exist...? If i pay for a hotel room and I am studying abroad and my girlfriend is in the same city and a different hotel with her dad and she comes there to hangout, I dont think a person should have to pay 25 Euros for that to happen.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

conveniently located walking distance from port for cruises. Well priced with helpful receptionist and good location for walking to sights. Quite an old hotel though with no tea making facilities...the barman will give hot water if pushed.

The hotel was in a great position hotel staff were very helpful helping us with train timetables but it was the state of the carpet in our room it was filthy and the bed was average .I have been using expedia for years and always had great hotels but this one was disappointing .

Genuine Expedia guest review

We booked this hotel after seeing pictures of rooms, we only had 1 night after a cruise and the room we were given was I think an old room, no heating, very little lighting (2 bedside lamps) on opening the wardrobe on 1 side there was a sink and cooker. The staff were helpful and very pleasant and the breakfast was quite good. It isn't a hotel we would […] use again. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

This is a nicely presented hotel. The room is spacious. Unfortunately it took us 1.5 hours to find the road to access it as the signposting in Genoa is bad, traffic hectic and the roads criss cross each other. If driving don't bother finding it without a GPS unit. Valet car parking only (20 euro a day) The double bed was two singles put together ( […] still had a gap down the middle) Free Wifi in reception Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

Room was clean although outdated. Staff were friendly although could not get free WIFI as all 4 passwords would not work, and staff had no solution to this. Parking was offsite at an unknown location, you leave your key and someone takes the car away, then when you want your car when you leave, you wait 15mins and pay 20euro hoping your car is intact!!! […] Felt a little dodgy!!! Breakfast was OK nothing special. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It is just a few minute walking distance from the train station and the Columbus Statue. Was very easy to access. The room interior was bright and modern. The breakfast was great. The surrounding area is a bit busy just in front of the station, but this hotel room itself was very quiet and comfortable. The restaurant next door was also great.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Hotel close to all must-see sights, clean and tidy. Friendly and helpful staff speak English. Gave me a map, suggested the sights and did my online chech-in for free. Old building (like others in Italy) redecorated. Room was OK. I prefer a nice comfortable big bed (had double bed for myself) and a shower (don't like bathing), to me the main features […] of the room, considering I'm out sightseeing most of the time. Big comfortable room, good sized modern bathroom, hairdryer, mini bar, air conditioning. Read reviews about air conditioning not working. I had to ask them how to operate it because I couldn't switch it on, but after knowing the "trick" it worked perfectly. Some people have difficulties but don't say anything, so they think "it doesn't work". My advice is: ask! If you don't tell them, nobody will guess; and when something is wrong, give them the chance to put it right! Room has tea and coffee making facilities on request, so again: ask, but bear in mind coffee mustn't be made with boiling water, so you won't get terribly hot coffee in Italy. If you have something at a bar while standing it's cheaper (maybe same applies in other countries), the moment you choose table and chair, in Italy, the price goes up. Nice, varied and abundant breakfast included Italian specialities. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Apart from the fact that the hotel had changed its name since we booked and we had to hire a taxi to follow to locate it because of peak hour traffic and at least three different numbers (from various eras!) on each building in this busy street where there was no parking, we enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The staff were efficient, helpful and friendly […] and apologetic about the confusion over the name - it's now "Hotel Britannica". Our 'room' was actually an apartment with a city view, a comfortable bathroom, a kitchenette and dining table, a 'living' area with two sofas, ample storage and a comfortable loft bedroom. We were only staying one night so unable to take full advantage of these facilities but it would be ideal for a longer stay in the city as the hotel is well-located near all the touristy areas. Great value for money! Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very conveniently located to the main train station and the bus service to the airport, the area is not great but I found the hotel room very clean and the bathroom was spotless. I paid a very good rate which included a very decent breakfast. I will definitely use it again. Perhaps the pillows could be a bit more comfortable.
