Historic apartment in Genoa's old town where Einstein lived as a teenager
Historic Setting
La Casa Di Einstein occupies a historic building in the heart of Genoa's old town. This apartment is located in the same building where Albert Einstein lived as a teenager. Guests can stay in a space that doubles as a museum-like experience, with original period details preserved.
Amenities
The apartment offers free WiFi, air conditioning, and a fully equipped kitchenette for self-catering stays. A washing machine and a fireplace add extra convenience and comfort for longer visits. The property also provides a view of a nearby landmark from the windows.
Comfortable Living
The unit includes one bedroom, one bathroom, and a spacious living room with a dining area. Family rooms are available, allowing groups to stay together in the same apartment. The interior is styled with authentic Italian furnishings that reflect the building's history.
Location
The apartment sits less than 1 km from the University of Genova and a 6-minute walk from the Aquarium of Genoa. Guests can reach Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport, located 10 km away, by taxi or public transport. Shops, bars, and restaurants are within a 2- to 10-minute walk from the entrance.
Guest Experience
Past guests rated the stay a 10 out of 10, describing it as 'like staying in a museum.' The staff provided easy check-in and check-out, and the location in the old town was praised for its convenience. One review noted that those seeking a modern, shiny hotel should choose elsewhere, but the experience of staying in Einstein's former building is the main draw.
