A fabulous "balcony" suspended over the Historic Centre with a 360° view out over the city and the port. Riding up to it in the Art Nouveau lift is an enchanting experience.
"When I decide
to go to heaven
I'll go in the elevator
of Castelletto…"
(Giorgio Caproni, from "The Elevator")
From here visitors can admire the rooftops made of slate, a traditional local material, as well as mediaeval towers and Baroque domes; in the distance, the sea comes alive with both modern ships and ancient memories
The high grounds form a backdrop dotted with parks, villas and sanctuaries and crowned with the city’s forts.
Until 1849, the fortress of Castelletto stood in the place of this magnificent overlook, before being razed to the ground by public demand, as it was deemed a menace to the city below in the event of enemy occupation.
In 1910, when Alinari photographs popularised its beauty, the esplanade/overlook of Castelletto joined the list of Genoa's must-see wonders.
It can be reached both via the scenic Circonvallazione a Monte bypass (laid out in the second half of the 20th century, halfway up the hills) and by the splendidly preserved Art Nouveau lift that rises from PIAZZA PORTELLO, ( 600 meters walk from the apartment or 1 bus stop bus N. 18 east bound direction) a stone's throw from the Strada Nuova ( Via Garibaldi)

top choice products all under one roof! A good place to shop for high quality Italian and Mediterranean ingredients.
It's much more than a supermarket and not just a restaurant.
Extended over the entire top floor of Millo Building, Eataly Genova welcomes you in its 2,000 square meters and beautiful glass window dominating Porto Antico and the city.
Seated at the tables overlooking the sea, you can eat at one of the themed restaurants: Pasta, Pizza, Meat, Fish, Cold Cuts & Cheeses and Vegetables, each with a new menu every day, or in the gourmet restaurant The Marin.
All around, between the shelves, a variety of foods ranging from fruits and vegetables, local cheeses, pastries, cakes, preserves and many others, in addition to the fresh products from the bakery cooked in the wood-burning oven, the coffee shop with the dessert of the day and the Gelateria Alpina Lait on the ground floor.
