Hotels near Scuola Galileiana di Studi Superiori, Padova

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.

The house price is too cheap compared to Venice. Parking is free and there are plenty of parking spaces. You can get on the highway just outside the hotel. It takes 25 minutes to drive to Venice, which is very convenient.

I assume that when this hotel arrives, it is a good thing if it is in its guidelines, the room is not bad, even the underground parking structure, but the serious problem of this hotel is staff, We asked for a lower coat, having to stay 3 nights and if it was not for the night shift Lord who found it, my cervical would have suffered so much. The bar despite the food and its variety was good for the staff of a unique maleducation. The chilli on the cake arrived during the last night of stay, entering the room of unwallowed baskets, obviously unclean floor, unreplaced hygienic paper and produced in the finished shower, as to say “ so much is the Last night, when I made my shows in a courteous way the two girls at the reception, untreated and insolent said that it was not dependent on them one of the two intervened saying if you want now I can only change her room, I assume that my own was a simple pointing, so, given the cost, I would not have disregarded to have more than the good personal structure of Education.

We were 80 persons with school excursion. At check in the receptionist was unfriendly and uncollaborative. They charged us for parking space for bus, which is not usual for the hotel guests. On the photo is so called 3 bedroom bed. Next day we were stacked in traffic and when we called to advise them that we may be late for the dinner, we've been told that we will be charged if we are late. Next day they charged us 150 EUR because some guests apparently left cose the kids were too loud. Interesting is that they didn't ask us that money in the morning while check out, we've been asked when we came in afternoon cose bus waited us in the hotel yard. When we asked for the proofs, we didn't got straight answer and two receptionists were talking different story. They tryed to get extra money out of as all the time. Several beds were broken so some kids needed to sleep 2 kids in one bed. In bathroom water was everywhere while taking a shower and in some toilets' water was pouring out while pulling the water. Those photos at Trip Adviser are made with special lance and makes everything looks much better than it is. At receive for parking, says ”Deposite”. Vegeterian dinnneer option was 1 scrambeled egg, french fries and peace of cheap cheese althout they where informed in advance that there was vegeterians in the group. 2nd night was better. Only good thing is a location.

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.

My stay was to have been 7 nights- two of those I was not even on property, but still kept my room, while in Venice, in order to keep larger luggage and items I did not need here. The early evening front desk gentleman, is curt, impatient, and then as you walk away says things about you literally behind your back, but so you DO hear him. I was so deeply hurt. All I was asking for was a couple of bottles of water for my room. He was I and my husband are Diamond Status/ have close to a million points accrued with them, with this hotel group, and he treated me so unkindly, that I am literally leaving the property, 3 days early and going elsewhere. IT really set a tone. The restaurant service staff, works sooo hard, but the food is sub par, and a limited repetitive menu. I have been in 3 other properties on this ”Tour Of Italy”, and I simply do not recommend it. Their bar: whereas other properties are all back to functioning normally in a world that has seemingly recovered from Covid, this property has zero bar stools, so you have to stand at the bar, and are not encouraged to stay, and the setting is not at all conducive to enjoying a drink. Rather, they have seating in a BRIGHTLY lit area, seemingly cafeteria style.. which is not conducive to relaxing, and decompressing from your day. However, other Crown Plaza Properties in Italy, do have what would be deemed normal, traditional, bar and lounge settings. SO, what is the problem with this place? This was my birthday trip, and I deeply regret coming here to stay- for soo many reasons. OH, and they were doing construction right across from my room, to the point I could not sleep!!! I called downstairs more than once begging them to stop, that I was sick and needed to rest- they essentially told me ”Too bad”, ”The construction had to continue”, and offered absolutely zero in compensation for the noise and preventing me to sleep.

I spent my birthday weekend at the Abano Grand Hotel for the first time and definitely not the last!! First off, the hotel is gorgeous all around. I felt immediately relaxed as I entered the property and welcomed by the highly professional and courteous staff. Secondly, the room, the pool and spa areas, the food and oh my goodness live music performed very well by the young lady and the gentleman (I failed to ask for their names) while I wait for the dining area to open. The piano virtuoso who entertained the guest during dinner and the attentive staff at the dining and breakfast areas! Finally, the best treat of the weekend for me was the spa area served by their amazingly sweet, kind and skilled masseuses (Anna Maria and Anna Maria). Thank you to both Anna Maria's for the excellent customer service and the most relaxing treatments you both have provided with such care! I feel rejuvenated! I must mention one particular lady I met in the hallway (I failed to ask for her name) who got my attention when she stopped me and asked if I would like to change my robe for a size smaller. She then knocked at my door and gave me 2 smaller robes!! I, thank you greatly and apologize that I did not get your name. Someone paid close attention to ensure not only comfort but safety of a guest! I could've tripped over the long robes I had and fallen on the floor or stairs! Again, thank you!!! I will return and will highly recommend!!!!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Plaza hotel Abano Terms, and it was an unforgettable experience. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and satisfaction from the moment I arrived. The luxurious accommodations and exceptional service made my stay truly memorable. The hotel’s prime location made exploring the city a breeze, and I can’t wait to return to there on my next visit. Highly recommended
