Top hotels in Prè
Hotel Continental Genova
The way Geneo was marketed and the reality are two completely different things. The area around the hotel is extremely dangerous and filthy. They advertise free parking and that is not true. We were nervous to be outside after dark. There is no way I would ever return.

B&B HOTEL Genova Principe
We stayed for two nights to explore the city and use the train station 100 meters away to travel to Cinque Terra & take a boat tour to Porto Fino. This city has unbelievable food! The staff were amazing at recommending excellent restaurants and were very knowledgeable & friendly. A big thank you ...

New Alexander
Cleanliness was mediocre. The cleaning team was not doing a proper job, bed not made, no replacement towels, besides, one of the cleaners was constantly spitting while doing his job. Disgusting!

Elena Alicia these ladies did a fabulous job. I highly recommend this hotel. It’s very close to the Cruise Ship and everybody is very good. The food was good and it was nice. We even got a pasta night. And that was good too.
