On one of the most scenic points in Genoa, close to the city’s romantic old fortifications, stands the intimate Bed and Breakfast "La Funicolare".

The location is unbeatable. And not just for its position and hospitality, but also for the possibility of getting to know a place as interesting as Genoa. First of all, there's the Aquarium, the biggest in Europe and the second in the world. Then there's Genoa itself, the chief town of Liguria, with its splendid palaces, awe-inspiring churches, and thousands of other curiosities for the visitor to discover. A vacation in Genoa is also an excellent opportunity to explore the interesting hinterland and the world-renowned Italian Riviera, with its pearls Portofino and Cinque Terre.

"La Funicolare" is the ideal place to start your discovery of a town out of the ordinary. It’s located in the Castelletto area, very close to one of the striking funicular railway stations leading to the top of Righi, the highest hill in the city, and only a few minutes from the city centre, with its charming medieval port and famous Acquarium.





The building in which "La Funicolare" is located was constructed in the 19th century and the apartment was personally furnished by its owner, Laura, with refinement and sobriety. We offer our guests a single or double room with private bathroom.

The B&B is located along a "creuza", the typical genoese uphill of red stones. It is reachable in five minutes walking from the main road.
