Parfait ! Un hôtel complet dans son ensemble ! - Personnel : agréable - Emplacement : calme et serein proche des commodités et de l’autoroute - Propreté : incomparable - Attractivité (spa, fitness & bar) : 1) Malheureu*****t payant (15€), pour un hôtel de ce standing, cela me semble incompréhensible 2) Fitness exceptionnel 3) Bar magnifique et agréable - Petit-déjeuner : très complet et correct en accord avec ce standing d’hôtel - Points négatifs : 1) Mini-bar : tout était payant même l’eau (incompréhensible) 2) La machine à café du petit-déjeuner est une insulte à la qualité italienne

vanno fatti i complimenti per il recupero edilizio fatto per questo hotel, la struttura molto bella con un ampio giardino. Ampio parcheggio ma non asfaltato, quindi se piove c'è un po da sporcarsi. Stanze pulite e con arredamento abbastanza nuovo , bagno spaziose e doccia molto grande. Scelta di cuscini e coperteaggiuntive. Manca un topper nel materasso e se ne sente la mancanza. Il ristorante non l'ho provato se non colazione che è abbatanza varia fra dolci e salati. Manca un po di prodotto del territorio che se inserito a menù colazione, vista l'altissima qualità di salumi e formaggi locali, potrebbero venderlo in uno shop interno che manca. Suggerimento.. andrebbe ristrutturata anche la parte dietro perchè l'affaccio dalle finestre non è il massimo. Vicinissimo all'aeroporto ma non essendo trafficato non si sentono voli notturni, un po distante dal centro città quindi non agevole per chi va in visita a Parma.

Ogni volta che vado a Parma mi fermo in questo albergo perché è vicinissimo alla stazione centrale e a due passi dal centro. La colazione è ricca e varia e se non ti va di cercarti un ristorante per cenare c’è un ristorante dentro l’albergo. La struttura è nuova e le camere ottime!

Very close to the train station (though we had some difficulty finding the place, Google map navigation's fault). Piumaviola is on a very quiet side street. ”Gated compound” type of entrance for cars & people. We arrived earlier than check-in time, were able to drop off our luggage, paid the city taxes, and rushed to visit the cloister & the library of the San Giovanni Evangelista before 11:45am Friday closing time. Lovely decorated room (Toscanini room) and the shared kitchen/dining area: a lot of wooden furniture (tables, map storing drawer type of furniture pieces), a nice touch of fake orchids, etc. Retro and tasteful. Even the area by the elevator was lovely. Our Toscanini room was soundproof and had one big room and a small room. A big washroom that also had a heated towel rack. Used to be a typography company so our room and the shared kitchen/dining area have high ceilings. There is a cold water dispenser, a kettle, a fridge for guests to use as well as plates, mugs, glasses, utensils, a microwave, & toaster. Great to have a meal there after making purchases from the supermarket. An observation: It's great that Piumaviola has a washer/dryer (all-in-one type; 1 machine) for the guests to use. Please keep in mind that it is best for those who are staying 2 nights so you will have ample time to hang & dry your laundry completely. I appreciated that the same PIN code is used to access the compound gate, building gate, elevator, and your room. No keys to return as we had to leave early before the included breakfast. Since we couldn't have the included breakfast the next morning, the owner's daughter prepared a tray of sweet goodies for us & placed it in our room. She was also easily reachable via Whatsapp since we had to dash to visit the San Giovanni Evangelista before closing time. She patiently answered my questions about the water dispenser, kettle, all-in-one washer/dryer how-to. We had an one-night stay & wished that we had stayed longer Please don't hesistate to book your stay at this lovely Piumaviola Bed & Apartments in Parma. (I don't get commissions. I just provided my first-hand experience. That's all. LOL)

I knew I had made the right hotel choice the moment I arrived to park my rental car in front of the hotel in the historic district — the generous host and owner, Signor Vittorio, immediately offered to arrange to take my car to private, covered parking (and he brought the car back to us upon departure). This hotel can’t be any more centrally located — 10 meters from the baptistery and the main piazza. We enjoyed our spacious family suite (Violetta, rm 7), designed in an early 19th century style, and with view on the quieter rear courtyard. Only slight inconvenience is to have to leave the hotel in the morning to choose one of two hotel-affiliated breakfast places (both good), and only 10-20 meters from hotel. I appreciated the attention to detail to send us clear directions about driving through historic Parma which limits car traffic.

Great location near motorway. Large room with super comfortable massive bed. Clean. Good restaurant just down the road. Would have been perfect if it was not so hot. 'Air conditioning' was 26 degrees which is much hotter than we have our day time heating in the winter. Windows were screwed shut. When we complained we were told that the Italian authorities have a rule that air conditioning cannot be below 26 after beginning September. This cannot be true as we have spent over 4 weeks in Italy and had no problems at any of the 15 hotels we have stayed in. Eventually they reduced it to 23 degrees which was still too hot. Water pressure in the shower was low. Breakfast was a motel style buffet which was ok but not great.
