Hotel berhampiran Parco Archeologico VILLAGGIO NEOLITICO Travo, Travo

Struttura molto particolare ubicata a Gazzola di Rivalta in un edificio storico al centro del borgo. Il borgo è pedonale e l'auto si parcheggia in un piazzale alle spalle dell'hotel che si raggiunge tramite una corta scalinata. Tutta la struttura è arredata in stile e così anche la nostra camera, la n. 1, forse un po' piccola anche per via dei mobili massicci. Il bagno, fortunatamente, non è in stile, ma moderno e pulito, dotato di tutto il necessario. Poiché, curiosamente, eravamo gli unici ospiti della struttura, non possiamo sbilanciarci sull'insonorizzazione della stanza: certo è che, in un hotel da soli, non c'è alcun rumore. Per lo stesso motivo non possiamo esprimerci sulla colazione. Abbiamo ordinato la sera e la mattina ci hanno fatto trovare tutto quello che avevamo scelto, di ottima qualità, anche se forse le uova le avremmo preferite più.... strapazzate! All'interno del borgo, piccolissimo, ci sono 3 ristoranti, dei quali uno annesso all'hotel. Personale molto gentile e disponibile. Consigliato

Perfect in almost every sense. We travelled back from Ancona to the UK and the location, just off the Autostrade, is ideal & much more convenient than Reggio Emilia where we have stayed on the same journey for the last 15 years ! The large secure parking area is a real benefit when travelling with a boat trailer. All staff are very helpful & welcoming and the rooms spacious and very clean..We enjoyed dinner in the hotel which was good quality & value. The buffet breakfast has a fair selection too . We have just booked for our trip next July

The reason I am giving this 2 stars is because I  sleeped awfully in the bed, I found my mattress very uncomfortable. To be fair my wife next to me slept like a log. The picture quality on the TV was very good indeed, so much so I am making a comment about it.  A printed list of the channels would have been very useful. No idea why the channels we had were advertised as ”premium”.  The only English channels we finally found were 3 news channels.  Apart from films you would have on any normal Italian TV, no other films. WiFi was very good. The Bathroom was very nice, with an ample supply of good towels.  We went for the half board option.  Glad we did.  The food in the restaurant was very good, we could order any 2 dishes from the menu. We ordered our selves 2 glasses of wine with our meal.  After we finished I offered to pay for these extra.  I was very surprised to be told they were included in our meal deal. Good food and service, good value for money.  All the staff we spoke to had good English, and were very welcoming Covid restrictions like the whole of England were now very limited. The staff had mask, but no restrictions on us guests. So for the first time in maybe 2 years we found ourselves sharing a lift with 2 unmasked individuals.  This is going to become the new normal (again).  If you are not happy with this situation your only option would be not to travel. This is not a criticism of this hotel, just  a comment on governments policy's.  On going down for breakfast I was initially disappointed they was no all singing coffee machine, only a filter one.  After a couple of minutes I realised other residents were asking the serving staff to bring them their favourite coffee from the kitchen which they freshly made. Why not display a notice stating this? Compared to any  humble French hotel the bread quality was poor. However the selection of sliced cold meats was very good. They also had cooked bacon and scrambled eggs. The fruit juice  offered was not the real thing. I can't remember when I had such a poor night's sleep in a hotel, so we will not be going back, which in many whys is a shame.
