Location
Nervi was once a small fishing village and visitors can see the old harbour, the Porticciolo di Nervi (5 minute walk), with its restaurants and panoramic walks. The residence is conveniently located close to shops (supermarket 2 minutes walk) and other amenities.
It is a lively suburb of Genoa. Getting into the city centre is easy as there is Genoa Quinto railway station just 3 minutes drive from the apartment. Two of the city’s must-see sites are the Romanesque cathedral of San Lorenzo and the monumental Piazza De Ferrari.
Genoa’s vibrant port area (25 minutes) is home to the modern Aquarium of Genoa, which is worth a visit. As is the neighbouring Porto Antico, a huge cultural space with many events, exhibitions and great places to eat out.
For guests who want to relax by the sea, there are several beaches and lido’s along the coast, including the Spiaggia di Caprafico below the apartment and the Spiaggia Murcarolo, just a 7 minute walk along the seafront.
Genova’s International Airport is just a 30-minute drive from the apartment.
