The Balbi Hotel is the most typical, the cheapest and the most comfortable you can expect from a two-star Hotel. This hotel stands in the very central Via Balbi, that is just a few steps from the Aquarium, close to the splendid Royal Palace and the Old Harbour; it is also near the University and has been declared Unesco World Heritage. Thanks to its strategic location, people can easily get to this hotel, by train, by public means of transport and by car: it is only 200 metres from Principe Railway station and the air terminal, 600 metres from the harbour, where people can board cruise ships and ferries, and 2 km from the motorway. There is a useful bus shuttle service (N° 100 Volabus) connecting Principe railway station and the Cristoforo Colombo airport. The hotel has 13 large rooms and they all have private bathrooms, satellite TV, telephone, mini bar, and air conditioning. 2nd of April 2012.
