Brescia Hotels with Bars

I stayed at Hotel Igea in July 2022 and found it very difficult to find any fault. My room wasn't anything superior, just a normal room, but found it more than spacious, the bathroom was also very spacious. The curtains were very thick to ensure darkness when the sun comes up, large HD TV, mini-fridge which was very welcome in the climate and bed was comfy. The only negative sides about the hotel room was one or two areas of dust in high places which had clearly been continually missed and no bedside power sockets for charging devices. Staff were very friendly and professional, were more than happy to hold my luggage after checking out and the hotel restaurant is also an excellent standard with large, good quality portions. Very warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere and a good value for money. If I return to Brescia, I would definitely stay here again.

Quite a grand entrance that continues up into the room which was booked as a small single but was still presented in a rather grand manner. The staff were the real highlight though. All at reception were helpful and friendly- and knowledgeable when asked. Couldn’t ask for better.

At check in I asked about scheduling a massage for the following morning. Was told they no longer offer them. I asked about the pool & jacuzzi -was told they are 20 euro-somehow I missed this in hotel info…. But! It’s 10 euro because the Turkish bath is broken🙄. At 10Am I head to the reception desk in suit/cover (no robes)to ask where jacuzzi is? I’m told it must be reserved!? And its avail at noon (check-in gal said it was open at 9🤔). Not booked but they have to prepare it…ie turn on the heat? I’m very disappointed. What poor hotel practice to advertise massages and pools and jacuzzis and then they are basically unavailable. Finally no coffee in the room -bought a tablespoon of coffee for 2 euro only to drop it trying to fumble w/ the keycard which although my fault, further made this whole morning a disappointment. We are here 2 more nights & if our friends in Brescia hadn’t suggested this hotel- I would change. Finally beds are very hard.

When you go through, you can book directly, and occasionally stay for one night, you can only say the standard of Novotel.

I was sorely disappointed with this property. I totally agree with a recent review: the rooms at this new property are entirely TOO HOT and UNCOMFORTABLE. Even when booking the hotel, I was met with complications, regulations and stupidity. On a prepaid reservation via Hilton Honors, one of my primary credit cards had been recently changed/deactivated and I tried valiantly to get the problem rectified, only to have the hotel email a form attached that required a written authorisation, plus identification to be scanned/faxed back to the hotel. I didn’t have access to a scanner/fax on the road. After several calls via Hilton Honors desk to the property, sanity prevailed and was able to verbally give the proper active credit card over the phone to the hotel. Upon arrival, the room was like an oven at 28c (82F). I opened the windows (they only open up about 8cm (3in) in the hope that things might cool down after I had gone out sightseeing in Brescia for a few hours. By evening, it had only “cooled” to 25c (77F) – and this was at 9:00PM. I rang the front desk to see if something could be done. I took matters into my own hands, going directly to reception, requesting a room that was not on the sunny side. I was told nothing was available on the opposite side. Mind you, this hotel with over 135 rooms was far from busy and all they would say is that regulations prohibit air-conditioning being turned on this time of year [April] however, the hallways of the hotel were cooler than the room itself (all reception would say is that the halls are ”inside”, and thus cooler). And like a clueless robot, reception repeated, “open the window, open the window” (the ones that only open a few cms/inches) The new room was a “cooler” 24c (75F). Needless to say, I didn’t have a restful night in my sauna of a room – with windows open, and the noise of outside street traffic & pedestrians. I managed to squeeze in a few hours sleep due to pure exhaustion, waking up tired & irritable. The buffet breakfast was small & cramped, the food palatable from the small choices available. Oh yeah, one minor thing I've noted: in both rooms, there were heavy metal tissue holders in the bathroom, but no tissues - either the hotel is poorly managed, or they are too cheap to provide tissues (Kleenex). This is my first (and last) trip to the Brescia Doubletree - what a bunch of dopes!

Looking for a quick 1 night stay while travelling through Brescia, I chose the hotel thanks to its 4 star description. It is definitely NOT a 4 star hotel, 3 star at best in its heyday.. The room was pretty dark (not like in the publicity photo) and so couldn't really tell how clean it was. The booger complete with nose hair stuck on the wall above a bed is a good indicator though. There was a fairly musty smell to the room as if it hadn't been aired in ages. The whole room was very old, the newest thing was the paint job, everything else was from the 80's at least. We had a room facing the main road, and the flimsy windows couldn't block out the traffic noise during the night. The air conditioner was the type with a manual fan speed switch, which of course had the knob removed, so you couldn't regulate the fan speed, so if its stuck on max. u freeze. Bed comfort was ok (for a 3 star). Breakfast has 2 options - quick croissant, cappuccino, and juice, or full buffet. Unfortunately not much more offered at the buffet, only found bread, jams, cereal, and yogurt. No cold cuts or cheeses. I also chose the hotel because it advertised secure underground parking, but when I asked about it, I was told to park outside the front of the hotel..

This is - without any frills and fancy stuff - a good hotel. A good hotel in terms of friendly staff, clean rooms, alll the amenities you need for a weekend getaway and a good location just some 15 minutes walk to downtown. Good housekeeping - that is a rare thing to find these days. Parking is free and there is plenty of parking. Whilst we never had breakfast there, we did go for a few drinks in the evening - good service and very reasonalby priced. Been there three times meanwhil and will certainly stay there again on a future occasion

This Hotel (which is a Motel not a Hotel) is the worst nightmare I have ever experienced in a lifetime spent traveling the world over! Parking under the Hotel “at your own risk. The Hotel takes no responsibilities for thefts.” The A/C was not working at all - in a night of scorching heat (30 degrees Celsius), I called the Front Desk several times, they always told me they would look into it and resolve the issue and would get back to me/never did! DIDN’T SLEEP ALL NIGHT LONG because of the heat and stickiness in the room! In the morning I tried to take a shower: ONLY COLD WATER in the room! In the morning I went to complain at the Reception: very rude and arrogant personnel. At 7:15am I showed up at the Breakfast Buffet, literally NOTHING WAS LEFT! They told me “because they had a Group of Chinese that just had breakfast”. Please NO B.S. - I have never seen such an embarrassing scene (for the Hotel!) all my life!

I travel alone, so I treat hotels quite simple. The main plus is the proximity to the station. Quick settlement. I speak a bad language, but communication with staff was comfortable, staff was kind. The breakfast is normal - chips, bakers, several cuts, juices, tea, coffee ... In the room there are all toilet facilities. The windows went out to the yard - noise from the street was not, but inside I seemed a little noisy. And next to the room was a technical room and from the morning there was a rolling room.
