Pros:

L'accoglienza è la professionalità del personale, la posizione strategica dell' albergo ci ha permesso di visitare il santuario e tanti altri luoghi di interesse nel minimo dei tempi. La vista al santuario dalla camera è impagabile. Grazie davvero.

Cons:

Non applica.

The heat and lack of a working AC really ruined the stay.
Pros:

Good size room. Breakfast was Ok. Front office staff were OK.

Cons:

The AC did not work. Temperature in the room was around 28C. AC was not working. When I complained, they offered another room - It appeared that the AC for the whole hotel was not working. Even the reception had fans running. The temperature on that day in Padua was around 35C!!!
They should have had some kind of alternate option if the AC failed. Pretty disappointed.

Hôtel idéal pour passer quelques jours à Padoue, merveilleusement bien situé
Pros:

Chambre spacieuse, extrêmement bien située dans un immeuble historique. Pour quatre personnes nous avons eu une suite avec deux chambre, l’idéal pour une famille.

Cons:

La Climatisation était bruyante, le petit déjeuner manquait de charme
