Categories

Cleanliness
7.5
Rooms repeatedly described as clean and well maintained, though one report highlighted serious breakfast hygiene issues (mold on bread) which lowers overall cleanliness perception.
Service
8.6
Multiple reviews praise very friendly, helpful reception staff (Giovanna team), proactive assistance and pleasant welcome; isolated negative note about slow check-out due to understaffing.
Location
9
Consistently praised — close to the historic centre, easily walkable (≈5 minutes) and convenient for exploring Viterbo and nearby transport links.
Room Quality
7
Mixed reports: some guests had very large, comfortable Superior rooms; others note small, dated rooms and very compact bathrooms, giving an overall below‑excellent score.
Amenities
7.8
Strengths: internal parking/garage appreciated. Weaknesses: no kettle or in-room tea selection, wall dispensers instead of dedicated toiletries, no restaurant and some concerns about garage access/security.
Value for Money
8.8
Several guests explicitly cite very good value for price paid; positive balance between cost and offered services/parking and location.
Food and Beverage
8
Many guests praised a generous breakfast (sweet and savory), but at least one severe negative report (stale pastries, mold, boxed orange juice) creates mixed overall sentiment.
Overall Experience
8.9
Generally positive overall — welcoming staff, good location, parking and cleanliness noted by many; issues with rooms/amenities and occasional food or service lapses temper an otherwise strong stay.

Delusione, per fortuna era solo per una notte
Pros:

lobby e reception

Cons:

le camere sono da 3 stelle, aria condizionata probabilmente centralizzata. Non si abbassava sotto una certa temperatura!!!...il frigobar era staccato, quindi spento! la colazione pessima. Pancarrè con muffa (vedi foto)- brioche vecchie probabilmente di 2 giorni. Succo d'arancia delle scatole ma vecchio. Solo una persona al desk e per il check-out ho dovuto aspettare più di 20 min. Assurdo!! 4 stelle solo per il lobby e gli arredamenti che ha all'entrata, ma per il resto non arriva nemmeno a un 3 stelle .dispiace! L'impressione era stata diversa

Difficile de donner un avis car excellent potenciel, les propriétaires devrait sérieusement envisager une restructuratio
Pros:

Le personnel très gentil et souriant la seule véritable note positive.
Le petit déjeuner a tenu toutes ces promesses le personnel de salle super

Cons:

Hôtel qui a vécu et qui a vraiment besoin d’être renouvelé vieux mobiliers et et salle de bain minuscule, une douche microscopique, heureusement propre, restaurant absent
Et le garage couvert est franchement à revoir pas très sûr et pas de passage direct à l’hôtel.

Ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo.
Pros:

La posizione, ottima. Il fatto di avere a disposizione anche un parcheggio interno è stato un punto di forza. La pulizia della camera mi ha soddisfatto.

Cons:

Alcune prese di corrente sono da sistemare e forse il bagno un pò piccolo.

Pros:

L'hotel si trova in una posizione limitrofa al centro storico, facilmente raggiungibile a piedi in 5 minuti. Comodissimo il parcheggio interno dell'hotel e ottima colazione con prodotti dolci e salati . La camera Superior ampissima e super pulita.

Cons:

Trattandosi di un hotel a 4 stelle, mi sarei aspettata un bollitore con una selezione di thè e tisane e caffè solubile. Inoltre avrei gradito dei prodotti da bagno dedicati e non i tristissimi dispenser a muro di sapone liquido e doccia schiuma.
