If you're interested in viewing rooms dressed as they appeared years ago, this is a good place to visit. There are lots of interesting paintings, furniture and carvings made back when workmanship was something people took personal pride in. Wherever I looked I could find interesting details, and some rooms, like the Gallery of Mirrors, were very impressive! Signage and explanations are sparse, but that didn't really detract from the visit for me - it was nice to soak in the history and wonder about how some pieces ended up in the palace...

A good way to spend time and explore the history of Genova. The museum is 10 minutes walk from the Genoa Principe train station. We had time to kill so decided to explore the museum and it takes a total of 2 hours at the most. The museum is well maintained housing the original palace with most of the interior including furniture and paintings. Some of the interesting aspects were the King and Queen's bedroom and Mirror Hall. There is sufficient information provided in each of the rooms to explain the history and significance. If you have time and interest in exploring Genova history this is a good place to visit.

We visited on our last full day in Genova and what a place. The art was beautiful captivating us with the skills of the past masters. The Royal palace rooms were lavishly decorated which were amazing.

Fresh breeze from the Tyrrhenian Sea ? is felt on the open terraces, times before there were trees ? outside. Looks to be perfectly planned, decorated and equipped. High ceilings decorated with paintings ?, lots of space including ball room inside.

We met Maurizio who kindly listened to our questions and we had a great conversation with him about art collections and architecture. This palace is worth a visit and along with Spinola. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The palace is well looked after and also affords great views across the port and city
