Hotel rooms are clean, spacious and comfortable. Very polite, helpful and smart staff. Hotel is close to the train station, so perfect for day trips to Venice.

The only bad thing was the neighbourhood. Very shady, and seemed unsafe. The hotel staff was extremeley helpful in making us feel comfortable and safe. However, my partner and I couldn't walk out of the hotel at night because of the lack of safety nearby. Very shady men outside.

Location is superb since the train station is just right at the door step. Staff is very friendly. Room is spacious.

1.The elevator could have some renovation---it's very small and slow and prone to kaputt but I guess it is difficult otherwise they would already have done it. 2. The area might be dodgy for most but we find it perfectly fine as long as you have some common sense. 3.There is no way to signal that you need no housekeeping unless you tell the reception. All the above are very minor though it's a great hotel, definitely recommends to all.

This hotel is good value for money and offers a decent standard of accommodation. There was no issue with noise despite the vicinity of the railway station. The staff was very helpful with recommendations for restaurants.

The location is both a plus and a minus. On the plus side, there are good connections into the city centre on public transport (tram). On the other hand, few Padua attractions are within easy walking distance, and car access and parking are difficult and expensive. The station area is not very salubrious both in terms of the members of the public and with regard to shops and eating places.

The hotel is very conveniently located just opposite the railway station in Padova, in an old, but well kept building. The room was large and comfortable, with large bathroom. Breakfast was very good, with a very large choice of food and beverages. The welcome at the reception was warm and efficient. In fact, I arrive in early morning and there was no problem to leave my luggage before I checked-in in the evening (went to Venice in the meantime). Likewise, there was no problem in leaving the luggage on the day of departure until mid-afternoon. Overall, certainly a recommended option in Padova (especially for those travelling by train) and very good value for money.

Nothing to complain.

Stepped off the train, crossed the road and into the hotel, checked in, dropped off bags, left hotel, crossed road, stepped onto train - Venice! simple. Could not ask for a better location, and the double glazed windows drowns out all the noise from everything. Superb breakfast, and we got our laundry done ($$$) - A train strike let us explore Padua, and our last day was back in Venice... but we just laughed at the people struggling with their suitcases wandering around venice...

The laundry was super expensive - could have brought new clothes, but we knew that it would be and we didnt have any other option!

The location was perfect as we were travelling by train to Padova so we could walk to/from the station easily. There are plenty of trams and busses nearby for travel into the centre of the old city. We were also a short walk from a major new conference facility as well. I love the art deco style of the hotel which is largely preserved. Breakfast was really excellent. A superb buffet that was a pleasure to look at! We needed more pillows, which were promptly supplied on request. WiFi worked well. The room was large (as was the en-suite bathroom) and the quiet air-con maintained the room at a steady temperature despite the heatwave outside!

Coffee could have been better. Filter coffee left standing on a hot-plate would have been okay years ago, but times have moved on and there are machines that can do every style (including grinding of the coffee beans). Also, there were no tea or coffee facilities in the room. Although we were out most days at the conference (plus the odd half-day sightseeing), it would have been nice to be able to stream TV channels to the TV from the Internet - that way we would not have been limited to just Italian TV channels. One of the receptionists seemed a little frosty to us, perhaps because we don't speak Italian?

I liked everything. I would especially like to mention the friendly staff, the comfort of the bed and the rooms. The windows were facing the street, but everything was very quiet! The high ceilings are a separate bonus.)) The location is very convenient for those who are traveling or attending a one-day event, like me. Breakfast is wonderful by Italian standards (no need to compare it, for example, with Norwegian!))) Thanks to this hotel!

A shower compartment would be better than a simple curtain. Everything else is fine.

I had an early flight out of Marco Polo Airport so I appreciated the property's close proximity to the trains and buses. There is a direct bus from outside the hotel (150m walk) which is super convenient. For my purposes I just needed 2 nights to see Padua, a day trip to Venice, and the bus to the airport - for me it was perfect.

As a solo female traveller, the location was fine during the day time, however, would not recommend going out at night. Being near a train station I felt as if it was not the safest to be alone after dark.

I was cautious after reading some reviews and was concerned about the location, but the hotel exceeded my expectations. It is located next to the train station, but it's also a safe, clean, and welcoming place. Staff is very helpful, I was provided with a kettle and tea set to make my evening tea and they moved me to a better room when it became available. Excellent value for the price.

I wish the room has more sockets to plug in electronics to charge.

Really nice hotel with friendly staff. Good breakfast with lots of choices and great coffee. Location is OK, right next to train & bus station but it's very noisy and a long way from the centre of Padova (25-30 minutes walk). There's lots of people hanging around the square at night too so bear that in mind if coming back late (there were also plenty of police around so felt reasonably safe). Got upgraded to a bigger room which was lovely. Great hotel, just expect a lot of noise outside.

Room was incredibly hot and stuffy but the air-conditioning was useless (cut out after a minute or so) and so noisy outside you couldn't leave the windows open. Wasn't really much in the way of bars or restaurants around. Just a couple of kebab shops and a McDonalds next door. Area feels a bit rough too so didn't feel like going too far at night. That's not the hotel's fault though, it's just something to be aware of.
