Hotel berhampiran Galleria Guglielmo Tabacchi, Padova

Abbiamo soggiornato, assieme a mia moglie, per due notti in questo hotel. La struttura, moderna e funzionale, si trova appena fuori Padova, in una zona residenziale, ad un paio di chilometri dall'uscita Padova Est dell'autostrada A4. E' in una posizione strategica perché si trova in un luogo tranquillo ma da cui ci si può muovere con molta facilità sia verso il centro di Padova che verso la vicina stazione di Busa di Vigonza per recarsi in treno a Venezia in appena 40 minuti. A tal proposito ringrazio il proprietario per gli ottimi consigli, sia per visitare Padova che per recarci a Venezia. La camera, di recente ristrutturazione, era molto ampia, moderna e perfettamente climatizzata. Il letto (king size) era veramente comodo e tutta la struttura splendidamente pulita. La colazione a buffet offre una grande varietà e qualità, sia per chi ama il dolce che per chi ama il salato. All'esterno c'è un'ampio parcheggio di proprietà, anche se non custodito. I titolari sono stati molto gentili e disponibili. Merita veramente!

Останавливалась на ночь второй раз. Номер не понравился- дверь в ванную не открывалась, в отсеке под холодильник - мини-холодильник отсутствовал.Чисто. Окна выходили на стоянку. Шумно. Звукоизоляция страдает. Соседи ночью мешали спать.

Hotel dagli arredi della hall, del bar e della sala colazione, decisamente antiquati per un 3 stelle. Da svecchiare alla grande. Camera grande, anche troppo, con qualche arredo moderno, ma senza finestra/e !!!!!! Ma con un muro in vetro cemento che nelle ore di punta del sole sei obbligato ad accendere al massimo l’aria condizionata, per poter respirare. Sarà comodo per chi deve soggiornare per essere vicino all’Ospedale Civile, magari per sottoporsi a visite o quant’altro, ma ciò non giustifica lo stile anni 80 dell’ingresso e delle sale comuni. Pet frendly. Comodo il parcheggio a pagamento dell’hotel, per l’auto, essendo tutte le vie del circondario a strisce blu. Prezzo adeguato perché sei a 10 minuti a piedi dalla Basilica di Sant’Antonio, dalla Cappella degli Scrovegni, dal Prato della Valle, dalle altre chiese e dal centro con negozi e bar per un buon spritz. A me personalmente non è piaciuto e non ci ritornerei, anche se lo staff è molto gentile e premuroso.

The hotel Donatello is well located across from the city's Basilica di San Antonio, and about 5 minutes from the famous Prato della Valle and 10-15 from the city centre and old city (university, ghetto, daily markets, pedestrian street, etc). From the outside, the hotel looks quite elegant and I suspect that front facing rooms have a nice view. To be honest, however, everything else about the hotel was rather disappointing. Rooms are actually tired and pretty gloomy. The single rooms are extremely small, the doubles are of decent size but tend to overlook blind narrow courtyards and feel rather dark and a bit depressing with a decor that seems stuck in the 1970s. Cleanliness is variable, lighting unpleasant, and whilst beds are decent, the pillows are hard and quite uncomfortable. Breakfast is quite poor. If you come when one of the ladies taking care of the breakfast room are around, they will prepare you a decent coffee from the barista machine, however, if they are not, it is a fairly ghastly automatic machine that uses instant coffee to make ”fake” espressos and cappuccino which is used instead. Juice is a strange watery thing from a machine. The best part are the nice homemade cornetti (croissants filled with jam, cream or chocolate) but apart from them, fruit, salad, bread, etc are all of poor quality and the scrambled eggs and meat are stone cold. There is a toaster which doesn't seem to work well and mediocre bread. Service in the hotel is not very friendly - reception staff ranged from reasonably cordial to barely polite and in one case, outright unpleasant. In short, the place is certainly not horrible, but equally, it doesn't seem too bothered about customers let alone interested in making them want to come back. A bit of a wasted opportunity given the nice location they fail to capitalise on.

Location was initially hard to find, but I saw a sign on the street pointing the right way to go. My directions gave two ways to go. The first involved going uphill and there were bikes whizzing by, so it wasn't very good if you have luggage. The other was flat and went by a bunch of people hanging out in the street. I didn't feel threatened but it isn't the best area in this lovely city. I don't know what it's like after dark. Basically, you take a right at the McDonalds, walk down the street past the Ethnic Market (a larger convenience store where I bought Coke Zeros several times) and follow the street around to the roundabout, take a right and go about 2-3 blocks. Staff was pleasant, helped with a safe issue (a prior occupant had left it locked) and kept their cool when I spilled some Coke Zero on the floor when retrieving my luggage that I had left after checking out. Internet was good, safe was a good size, and breakfast was good in terms of quality and quantity. There is a restaurant in the hotel that was closed Sunday night. We were very tired one night and ate there and we were glad that it was available. There isn't a lot around the hotel but it was a short walk to a nice area that had a lot of restaurants . We also were able to walk to a laundromat in the area as well as all of the tourist attractions. One curious thing about the hotel was that the room numbers were on the carpet instead of being on the door.

The breakfast at this hotel is simply outstanding, providing a delightful start to each day of my stay. The wide variety of dishes catered to all dietary needs and preferences, ensuring that every guest found something to enjoy. From freshly baked pastries to omelettes and a selection of coffees, the breakfast spread was a true culinary delight. The impeccable service provided by the attentive and friendly receptionists ( especially Davide) added an extra touch of warmth to my mornings. They greeted guests with genuine smiles, promptly seating them and ensuring that their dining experience exceeded expectations. The receptionist's attentiveness to detail and willingness to accommodate special requests truly made me feel like a valued guest.

This hotel is excellent. Location is next to the train station Staff are AMAZING.all friendly and the receptionist that helped me put a plaster on my cut head should be awarded a prize. The food is excellent ( this is probably due to the fact this hotel works with a lot of Italians -and Italians don't take well to bad food) My room was modern and super clean. Pool area also lovely and cleaned all day long. If I can give one thing I would personally suggest changing,it would be to write an indication to what the food is in the salad bar ( we all know what letus and tomatoes are, but lots of the other things don't look familiar to foreigners) a simple badge in front of the article will suffice. I would also recommend to RCI clients to read the T&Cs on Their booking as they have half board extra to add on . Great value for money for this class of hotel I recommend the full board as it's really worth it and the menu is different every day with high quality food and well cooked
