Very clean, staff was helpful, nice private garden to walk in, lots of private space. A little difficult to find initially, when we walked up, but that was figured out quickly. Will stay here again.

Amazing place to stay - a palazzo in the centre of Padua and close to most local attractions. The suite of rooms I had was clean and very spacious with a modern bathroom. Also, there’s a giant statue in the courtyard. Would stay here again.

It's actually a palace, with huge rooms. Very impressed. Rooms are clean and comfortable. It's walkable 10m from the train station and the city centre. Next door to the main attraction in padua.

This hotel is out of this world. It’s a 16th century castle, renovated with exquisite style. It’s like living in the museum, with its own park, right next to main attraction which is Giotto’s masterpiece. The owners and their staff are beyond amazing and helpful. This hotel is making me to want to come back to Padua.

A magnificent hotel in a truly lovely city
We were in the Verde Suite, which was gigantic but comfortable. The bed in particular was a delight to sleep on. The maids came every day around 1:00 and left us with two large bottles of mineral water after they cleaned up our messes. The breakfasts were delicious and plentiful.

We were amazed by our room and the property. When we entered through the gate in the entryway, we were transported into an oasis of beauty and elegance, including a 500 year-old statue of Hercules and a private park. The room was huge, with a vaulted ceiling and comfy beds. We loved everything about it.

This was an unexpected treasure. Right next door to the Scrovegni Chapel and walking distance to the train station and nearly every thing else. Amazing courtyard and garden, and very helpful staff. We only stayed one night and wished we had stayed longer. Why stay anywhere else when in Padova!

The Palazzo is beautiful! The room was very very large and comfortable. The bathroom is modern. We also enjoyed the breakfast. Be aware that the equisite inlaid wood floor is very squeaky.

what a charming palazzo. I love the elegant vintage vibe. The dining room is old fashioned (in the best way) the internal courtyard statue is incredible, the garden is petite but pretty. Easy walking distance from everything. I think I booked the smallest room but it was still quite large. What a wonderful place.

Elegant and spacious suite that was warm and welcoming in damp and chilly January. The Palazzo is ideally situated for the museums, and for the centre of the city - everything is within walking distance. The staff were helpful with arrangements and it was easy to access the building out of hours. Giotto's frescoes are just next door, and there is a great selection of restaurants nearby. We particularly enjoyed UVA. The centre of Venice is only 30 mins away by train, so would be a great base for visiting. All in all, we had a great holiday in lovely surroundings!

All staff members are very friendly and accommodating. This place has its own personality. Nice entrance gate, colorful stained glass archway leading to the courtyard, and a small garden behind the building. The room is clean with antique bed side end tables, and a sitting area for relaxation. The Scrovegni Chapel is within a short walking distance. I had a very pleasant stay and will definitely recommend this place to my friends.

Unique and authentic 16th century palace built by Marco Mantua Benavides, a prominent legal scholar, polymath, and art patron at Padua University. Huge 9-ft statue of Hercules by Ammannati (nonetheless!) dominates the courtyard. Private garden provides a rare retreat .Royal size (1000-1500 ft2 ) rooms beautifully and tastefully appointed and decorated. Fantastic location. Helpful & knowledgeable staff. In summary, a true gem and great value for the price charged!

I only stayed here for one night so didn't get to fully enjoy this lovely accommodation. I'd definitely recommend here, especially if you're staying a few nights.
The staff were very kind and helpful, they also looked after my bags so I could explore Padua without my luggage the following day.
The room is a perfect mix of old and new. While it still looks aesthetically old, the facilities feel like they're recently renovated.
I was amazed at how quiet my room was. Having come from Vicenza (the quietest town I visited) I was surprised to say that this was the quietest night I had on my travels!
The location is very close to the station and only a few minutes from the Scrovegni Chapel.

Hotel staff very helpful in giving directions on how to find them (they sent emails and texts). Hotel is in a pedestrian zone so you need to let hotel know when close by (call them) so they can lower a bollard so you can drive into the short street. A staff member came onto the street to show us where to turn into the hotel because hotel name not well-marked. Room felt like being in an Italian villa. Well-appointed and close to old town. Had to pay extra to park in their courtyard but this is totally worth the expense because is convenient and car was secure. Breakfast basic but OK. Best part was the warmth and hospitality of the staff - made you feel like family.

This property is lovely and quiet. We stayed 2 nights in late October. The room was extremely large and comfortable. We found the property just a bit difficult to find because it is located in a very small plaza and set back under a covered entrada behind very large, wooden and glass doors. A quick phone call and someone greeted us promptly. But its the location that makes it special. The one and only suggestion for improvement would be a full length mirror in the room. 5 stars. Padova is a beautiful town. If you enjoy shopping this town is good for very nice clothing. Small independent shops as well as the usual big names.

a really wow factor
This hotel has a really wow factor.
We walked about 15 min from the train station and when Google map said we arrived, we could not see it.
Our fault – we should have read the arrival instructions the hotel sent to us before the arrival.
It is an old villa/palace situated on a quiet street in a quiet town that has much to offer to tourists interested in art, history, and architecture.
Behind the tall entrance doors, there is a large courtyard that has a towering statue of Heracles in the middle.
Our Suite Ercole was humongous, and nicely decorated, with a huge, comfortable bed, a big old-fashioned bathroom, and had efficient AC unit.
Excellent service and breakfast.
