Padova Konaklamanızı Bulun

The Hotel Europa is only a ten or twelve minute walk from the Padova railway station and is easy to find. The hotel is also only about a ten minute walk to the centre of the old town, with historical sites and shopping, restaurants and bars all being fairly close. Check-in was easy and despite being early by about twenty minutes, the receptionist gave me a room. A double room, it had an independent air-conditioning unit, a safe (which was unfortunately locked when I arrived), plenty plug points, a fridge with two bottles of water and a bathroom with very basic toiletries. The internet wifi worked alright. Rather strangely for a 4 star hotel however, there was no coffee machine/kettle in the room with instant coffee/tea etc. The room was clean and although not luxurious was comfortable enough. Breakfast was of the usual continental style but with the addition of bacon and scrambled or boiled eggs. A few rolls, breads, croissants, pastries, tarts as well as cold meat, cheese, yoghurt, choice of cereals, fruit juice and some fresh fruit. Sounds like a lot, but compared with other hotel breakfast buffets, it was actually quite meagre. No self-service coffee machine (probably a good thing!) but you could ask the staff for a cappucini or whatever. They didn’t actively ask if you wanted a coffee; you had to approach and ask them. Likewise when first entering the restaurant there was no ‘buongiorno” or “good morning”, just a rather sour faced woman asking for your room number. I did ask the receptionist if the safe in my room could be opened so as I could use it and was promised that somebody would come later to fix it but they never did. However having lost my phone charger, I also asked if I could borrow one and the receptionist went into a drawer and gave me one to use. Check-out was quick with another cheery guy at reception. Overall, a bit of a hit or a miss type of place. The receptionists were fine (other than not following up on my request regarding the room safe) but the attitude of the breakfast staff leaves a lot to be desired and I can’t understand a 4 star hotel not having a kettle in the room. At best an average hotel which seemed to me to be more of a 3 than a 4 star. I’ve actually stayed in several better 3 star hotels in Italy than this place. Significantly better!

The structure is located in a very good location, close to the city centre and also close to the main road arteries. Free to reach and with double parking possibilities: closed in underground garage or outdoor in reserved and overseen area. The hotel has a good bar service, a good restaurant, a beautiful and comfortable hall and a well-provided and free gym for all guests. Excellent experience.

The hotel staff has a good service attitude and the facilities are relatively complete. But it is far from the city, there is a bus nearby, and the last bus is more than seven o'clock in the evening, and there is no public transportation. It is recommended that people who drive come.

I travel a lot and I feel the oligation to warn you about that hotel if you like comfort and silence. It is clean but very old design (50s or 60s maybe...) - you feel like at your grandma's home - I will try to add picture to my comment. In addition of the old design, my room (309) was very small. The wall is so thin that I heard everything (every every everything...) that happened in the next room. The shower is very small. The TV is very small too. In ocotber, they turned off the Air Conditioned so It was very warm in that small room. And the last bad thing but not the least: i pre paid for 5 night. Because of a strike at the airport, I had to shorten my stay for 1 night. The girl at the lobby never wanted to be comprehensive and they billed the 5 nights even if I stayed only 4... She lied a lot saying that she asked to her management etc (it was not possible, she hasn't enough time to call...and I think the boss was just near her...) It is a shame for an hotel to refuse to cancel one night when you tell them 2 days before... I sincerly advise to avoid that hotel.

While traveling through northern Italy we stayed one night in this property. It is in easy walking distance to the Basilica of St. Anthony and short walk to the piazzas in the center of Padova or close stroll to a tram stop. Parking can be a bit of a challenge - the public parking in front of the hotel can be a bit expensive, but the hotel also has parking nearby for a lower price - see the clerk at check in. The rooms are not large, but they are clean and comfortable with no frills. The shower has good pressure, but the temperature tended to vary. The breakfast is not fancy, but a typical Italian breakfast. The staff are very helpful and accommodating.

Very nice hotel. Friendly Staff. Conveniently located. The breakfast was very good with plenty of choices. The coffee bar in the lobby was also a nice touch. The location was in walking distance to everywhere. The Bo Ho restaurant next door with it’s lovely garden and great food, I would recommend Hotel Giotto and will certainly stay on my next visit to Padua.

Great place for the money. Loved the restaurant at Giorgio, they make exceptional pizza. We spent all the time in the gym and later in the pool, where we met two great tip-tap-toe dancers from Frosinone. The only problem was that the neighbouring room complained for the banging at 3 am. But that was our fault, we admit, and we’re deeply sorry. Padova (Padua) is an amazing city, full of things, but a bit over the place. The main sight we suggest is the “Ponte de quatro martiri” where you can enjoy the sunset and the spiders hanging around. Also we suggest a day to Legnaro, the only thing is to beware incoming thunderstorms. The best thing about Padua though is the bus system, which is free and always on time. I’ve forgot to mention the beautiful Capela di Scovregni, where you can admire the masterpieces by Lionardo and Rafaello. We would also like to thank the staff for their exceptional service, summed by the motto: “NO”, which they told meant “of course”. The only complaint was when we asked for the access to the meeting room, to which they replied: “…cuesti a un cost”, which made us realise how tough life is for everyone
