The Balbi Hotel is the most typical, the cheapest and the most comfortable you can expect from a two-star Hotel. This hotel stands in the very central Via Balbi, that is just a few steps from the Aquarium, close to the splendid Royal Palace and the Old Harbour; it is also near the University and has been declared Unesco World Heritage.

Thanks to its strategic location, people can easily get to this hotel, by train, by public means of transport and by car: it is only 200 metres from Principe Railway station and the air terminal, 600 metres from the harbour, where people can board cruise ships and ferries, and 2 km from the motorway. There is a useful bus shuttle service (N° 100 Volabus) connecting Principe railway station and the Cristoforo Colombo airport.

The hotel has 13 large rooms and they all have private bathrooms, satellite TV, telephone, mini bar, and air conditioning.

The Aquarium and the children fun fair city are about 450 metres away, whereas the Galata Sea Museum is only a few minutes’ walk away. It is easy to get to the Carlo Felice Theatre, to the Luigi Ferraris Stadium, and to the International Fair area.
