Hotel NH Savona Darsena — Hotel in Savona

Our stay at NH Hotel was very smooth and comfortable from the beginning to the end. First, we were welcomed by attentive and competent staff at the front desk. In general, the hotel personnel gave us the strong impression of paying attention to every detail to make our stay perfect.

The room was spotless, quiet and spacious, with a large bed - somewhere in between a queen and a king size - a beautiful bathroom, a nice spacious balcony facing the sea and sleek and elegant modern furniture. Our room had a beautiful view of the Savona port. The mattress was firm and comfortable, the nightstands had mini-lamps allowing any of us to have light at night without waking up the partner, the desk had a coffeemaker and a few branded coffee pods, a couple of glasses, a complimentary bottle of water, and detailed information about Savona and the beautiful beach of Bergeggi where the hotel guests have special pricing (we spent a day there, it was marvelous, they gave us a first row spot and a 20% discount). The bathroom had a very generous size, an etched glass door and many nice touches like a fancy showerhead with rotating waterjets and an extra mirror for makeup.

The breakfast offered sweet and savory options, all of them looked very inviting. We had their yummy homemade cakes, focaccia and brioches, but fresh fruit and more pastries were available. They had 2 or 3 fresh juice options and offered lavazza coffee; we had two great cappuccinos (a regular one and a barkley one). Due to covid the access to the buffet was restricted and their staff kindly helped the guests with their choices. They also sanitized everything after each guest left the table.

As an added bonus, there are many cute restaurants and bars which are just a couple of blocks away from the hotel, and are especially lively in the afternoon/evening.

Overall, this was our best hotel experience in the last few years and we look forward to be back...

We booked for two nights and we're really satisfied! The amenities were complete and the room and bathroom are really clean. The staff are also friendly and very accomodating.

It's pretty near some restaurants that are also good. There are some italian restaurants that offer seafood dishes, pizzas and cocktail drinks, etc. There's also a sushi place and a mini supermarket in the proximity. It's around 10-15 minutes walk to the fortress and around 25 mins to reach the beach.

We also walked to the train station and I think it took us around 30 min to arrive there. Otherwise the staff told us that we can ride the 7/ or the 30/ bus from the stop on other side, a little further the road in front of one of the towers. There was an app you can install to pay for the ride or ask and pay the driver directly (it was written on the stop but we didn't try it)

We didn't take the breakfast buffet here and explored coffee bars around town. It costs around 20 per head but you may have a discount if you tell them the same day you check-in. There's also a bar at the entrance where you can have coffee, buy some sandwiches and/or some drinks. We didn't though because we want to be...

A great location. Our suite was very large and with a large terrace/enclosed balcony. We had a partial view of the sea. Very quiet, we didn't hear anything.

Staff was mostly friendly, parking was easy once we got directions from the front desk on how to park.

Breakfast was good, with a good selection, including local favorites.

One negative, a man entered the suite when my wife was alone, after only knocking once and then using a pass key to enter.

One positive, the hotel is right in the middle of the waterfront and their are restaurants all around. Many wonderful, serving fantastic food. Definitely a foodies choice pick.

Easy to get to everything you want to see. If you go across the waterfront, you are in the old town. If you go towards the fort there is a large park...
