The hotel staff were gracious and very helpful with directions for transportation and storing our bags on check out day so we could sight see in the morning. Breakfast had many many options and was wonderful. The room was very clean.
Excellent stay, the only unfortunate was that I stayed just 9 hours, I would have loved to spend more time in my room, which was lovely. The hotel is conveniently located next to the train station and with a view on the central square I had a great panorama. See you a next time in Padova.
Excellent 2 day stay, very close to the train station, although no restaurant there are plenty within easy walking distance. Walked for miles around the town and always felt safe. Staff very helpful and knowledgeable.
Room was spacious and well set up, bathroom was clean and big. Lots of food choices including italian, kebabs, KFC, McDs and more, if you need a quick bite without venturing into town. Hotel’s breakfast was a decent array of choices from cold to hot menu items. The train station is a one minute walk from hotel, yet the rooms are quiet, you don’t hear the trains at all. Too many youth and few unsavory characters of various persuasions seem to loiter around Padova and Italy in general, but they don’t panhandle or bother you, so it was fine. I would highly recommend this hotel, we stayed 2 nights and loved it.
Excellent property. Very good breakfast. Steps from the train terminal. Macdonalds and KFC on site if youre looking for it. Small market steps from the door. Bus station across the street.Friendly staff. Highly recommend.
Fabulous location of you want transportation hub. Easy to grab tram to old town---a but long, but not too bad to walk. Despite being right across from train station, not much noise
Hotel clean, friendly helpful staff. Building is kinda old, my room small (and inexpensive!), elevator slow, but they do well with what they have. Clean and well maintained. Would stay here again.
The hotel is great and the location is super handy to walk to downtown and take the train to go to Mestre/Venice. The area is not the nicest but it's far from ugly or insecure. There's police in the entrance of the train station, we walked at night there and we never felt insecure.
The staff are to be commended - they are friendly and efficient and easily handled my change from a room with a friend to my own room after they left - storing my luggage and having it placed in my room when I returned from a day trip to Ravenna.
They also happily provided room service of an incredible tomato and mozzerella salad with olives and very fresh greens and fresh rolls - all for an extremely reasonable price - such a nice treat after a long day of sightseeing.
Mille gracie!
Large, high ceilinged room, excellent beds, good bathroom facilities. The location is ideal for me - near the train, tram and bus stations (so it's easy to find after a long journey there), 10 minutes' walk to the centre of Padua. The area surrounding the hotel is not the nicest, but getting away from there is really easy. Super helpful staff. Huge numbers of really good towels fresh every day.
Only a couple of issues. Firstly the room is very dark; this is a design decision, but there wasn't enough light to read by without going to bed. Secondly, the bathroom had some mould around the bath, and a very mouldy shower curtain. That all being said, I'd recommend it to anyone, and would willingly stay there again.
Lovely Hotel to stay and very friendly staf. Wouldn’t recommend over the weekend as can be noisy in lane way adjacent.

The hotel was ok apart form the air conditioning didn’t work as we had a faulty window sensor. However it was fixed after a while. The area around the hotel felt unsafe to walk around in. However it is an excellent location for grabbing the train into Venice!
