Great Western Hotel Parma
Pros:

Location was good, close to airport with bus stop and europcar hire opposite.

Cons:

The shower hose leaking slightly and sink tap loose. Male night receptionist was very helpful but didn't catch his name. Good breakfast, lots of choice, although breakfast serving staff didn't appear very happy. Overall the hotel was of a high standard, modern & with all necessities. Pool & spa looked lovely but only stayed 1 night and didn't get a chance to use them.

Stadtbesichtigung mal anders
Pros:

Die Lage wirkte auf den ersten Moment etwas weit weg, aber man kann im Hotel umsonst Fahrräder bekommen. Die sind zwar nicht super modern und schick, aber umsonst und man kann damit super in die Stadt radeln. Zehn Minuten und man ist im Zentrum und kann überall hinflitzen. Zimmer waren OK, mit Loggia Balkon. Kühles Wasser mit Zitrone zur Begrüßung, viele kostenfreie Parkplätze such für große Autos mit Dachbox, zwei e-Ladeplätze ( Tesla und Porsche).

Cons:

Der Pool ist sehr sehr klein und im Frühstücksraum war es enorm warm.
