Featured Genoa (Genova) Hotels
Genoa is a city and a seaport in northern Italy, the capital of the Province of Genoa and of the region of Liguria. The city has a population of ca. 620,000 and the urban area has a population of ca. 890,000. Genua was a city of the ancient Ligurians. Its name is probably Ligurian, meaning "knee", i.e. "angle", from its geographical position, thus akin to the name of Geneva. 
Main sights - Genoa is one of the oldest cities of art in Italy. Its main features include the Piazza de Ferrari where the Opera and the Palace of the Dogeslikes are. There is also a house where Christopher Columbus is believed to have been born.  One part of the old city, the Strada Nuova or the Via Garibaldi, was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2006. This district was designed in the mid-16th century to accommodate Mannerist palaces of the city's most eminent families, including Palazzo Rosso, Palazzo Bianco, Palazzo Grimaldi and Palazzo Reale. The famous art college, Musei di Strada Nuova and the Palazzo del Principe are also located on this street.  Other landmarks of the city include St. Lawrence Cathedral (Cattedrale di San Lorenzo), the Old Harbor (Porto Antico), transformed into a mall by architect Renzo Piano, and the famous cemetery of Staglieno, renowned for its monuments and statues. The Museo d'Arte Orientale has one of the largest collections of Oriental art in Europe.  Other than the old city sights, Genoa also has the second largest aquarium in the world which is located in the above-mentioned old harbor. The port of Genoa also contains an ancient lighthouse, called La Lanterna (i.e., "the lantern"). It is the oldest working lighthouse in the world, one of the five tallest ones, and the tallest brick one and it is Genoa's landmark.  One of the most beautiful and pictoresque genoese neighbourhood is Boccadasse on the east of the city.

AC Genova
This 4 star hotel is located in Genova, three kilometers away from the Nervi exit of the A-12 motorway and it is an ideal choice for business trips. The hotel has Internet connection and free minibars in all the rooms, a fully equipped fitness center, and magnificently equipped halls for conventions and meetings. The hotel's location is ideal, with easy access to Genova. With its dizzying mix of the old and the new, Genova is as multilayered as the hills it clings to. It's always been first and foremost a port city: It was an important maritime center for the Roman Empire, the boyhood home of Christopher Columbus, and later one of the largest and wealthiest cities of Renaissance Europe.  It's easy to capture glimpses of these former glory days on the narrow lanes and dank alleyways of Genova's port-side old town, where treasure-filled palaces and fine marble churches stand next to laundry-draped tenements. In fact, life within the old medieval walls seems frozen in time.

Italian Riviera Featured Hotels
The Italian Rivera (Italian Riviera ligure) is the narrow coastal strip which lies between the Ligurian Sea and the mountain chain formed by the Maritime Alps and the Apennines. Longitudinally it extends from the border with France and the French Riviera (or Côte d'Azur) near Ventimiglia (a former customs post) to Capo Corvo (also known as Punta Bianca) which marks the the eastern end of the Gulf of La Spezia and is close to the border with Tuscany. The Italian Riviera thus includes nearly all of the coastline of Liguria. (Historically it extended further to the west, through what is now French territory as far as Monaco.)
The Riveira is centred on the port of Genoa, which divides it into two main sections: the Riviera di Ponente, extending westwards from Genoa to the French border; and the Riviera di Levante between Genoa and Capo Corva.  It is famous for its particularly mild climate which, together with the charm of its old fishing ports and the beauty of its landscape, has made it a popular destination for travellers and tourists since the time of Byron and Shelley.  Many villages and towns in the area are internationally known, such as Portofino, Bordighera, Lerici, and the Cinque Terre.  The part of the Riviera di Ponente centered on Savona, is called the "Riviera delle Palme" (the Riviera of palms); the part centered on Sanremo, is called the "Riviera dei Fiori", after the long-established flower growing industry.
