Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable and clean but a bit outdated, affecting the overall ambiance. The service, particularly at breakfast, had its highs and lows. On the bright side, the location is unbeatable, right in front of the Basilica Sant'Antonio, offering a central yet peaceful setting.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and clean, offering beautiful views of the Basilica San Antonio, but accessing them was a bit challenging, and the room temperature was uncomfortably hot. The location, overlooking the Basilica San Antonio and square, was absolutely stunning, with easy access to the city center and nice restaurants. The service was friendly and accommodating overall, but some staff conversations were inappropriate, and the fresh coffee request was declined. Dining options were good, especially the variety of cheese, cooked meats, and desserts. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for improvement.
Staying at the hotel was a lovely experience. The rooms were spacious, clean, and had a comfortable bed, although facing the basilica and piazza del Santo added a special touch. The staff, especially at the reception desk, were extremely helpful, funny, and polite, making our stay even more enjoyable. The location is unbeatable for exploring Padua, right beside St Anthony's Basilica and within walking distance of the city center. The dining options were varied and fresh, perfect for a satisfying meal. Overall, a great value for money choice for a trip to Padova.
