The 77-room Hotel Punta San Martino is a three-pearl hotel with spectacular views over the Bay of Genoa. Its beautiful setting is undoubtedly its best feature, as interiors and rooms are a mixed bag. The property is within a 15-minute walk of town, and a funicular leads to the beach, though it's not free. Entry-level rooms are basic and include flat-screen TVs, minibars, and air-conditioning. Most have sea views, and some have balconies, and Design Rooms that are a little more stylish are also available. A seasonal restaurant serves mediocre meals, and two outdoor pools offer nice views of the sea. As an alternative, the Poggio Hotel has an indoor pool and hot tub, and rooms are a bit more universally fresh.

The 40-room Poggio Hotel is a mid-range property situated just off the highway in a quiet countryside setting about a five-minute drive from Arenzano. Beaches are also within five minutes by car, and there are a few restaurants and bars within walking distance. Rooms are basic, but mostly modern, and all have air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and minibars. There's a restaurant on-site that gets solid marks from previous guests, and a small bar serves drinks by reception. The hotel also has a semi-enclosed pool and hot tub open seasonally, and parking and Wi-Fi are free. Travelers who'd prefer to be closer to the beach could check out the Hotel Punta San Martino, where rooms aren't as attractive, but the views are spectacular.

The 109-room Grand Hotel Arenzano is a three-and-a-half-pearl property in a beautiful location overlooking the Gulf of Arenzano. It's within walking distance of the city center as well as a number of restaurants, bars, and shops. Sadly, however, the hotel has lost some of the glamour of its earlier days and could use some updating -- we spotted older carpets and outdated furniture throughout the hotel. Rooms are decorated in vintage Italian style and offer minibars, flat-screen TVs, and safes, and some have gorgeous water views. Two on-site restaurants include an outpost of Michelin-starred The Cook, and there's a pool, spa, and small fitness center. Travelers looking for an alternative could check out the Poggio Hotel, which is more updated and has an indoor swimming pool.
