Art Hotel Al Fagiano

Good

Liked: Location was great and there's parking available in the hotel at a reasonable price. Staff were very helpful.
Disliked: Bedroom and bathroom were very small for a triple

Comfortable, quirky and inexpensive hotel...

Liked: A comfortable and inexpensive family run hotel in an unbeatable location in Padua’s historic centre - just minutes away from St Anthony’s Basilica and within easy walking distance of the Scrovegni Chapel etc. Amazing decor, there really is art on every surface! Friendly and helpful staff, small breakfast room and garden. Comfortable bed, large clean bathroom. Quiet, safe area with a tram stop nearby - a quick, easy trip to the railway station.
Disliked: Our rooms were at the back of the hotel and a little dark (there was also an issue with the side lamps in one room)

Exceptional

Liked: Amazing location, right in the middle of the city. Very accomodating staff and beautiful quirky design

Very good

Great place for a short...

Liked: Location was very close to major tourist sites, restaurants. Clean and quiet room. Friendly and helpful staff.
Disliked: Rome was small, shower especially so.

Superb

Liked: Great breakfast, helpful, friendly staff. The owner is an artist and has tastefully filled the hotel walls with her art. We felt very welcome.

Very good

Liked: Stefano (the son of the owner) was in charge, he is a super nice and kind guy, we were a group of 22 people, so the hotel was pretty much for us, he did everything he could to ensure a nice and comfortable stay. The location is just one block from de St Anthony’s basilica. The pastries, cheese and bread for breakfast were delicious! The rooms were very clean.
Disliked: This is a matter of personal opinion, but can be important. I was in charge of a pilgrimage with teens and a priest, it was very uncomfortable that all the walls have a very estrange art work with a bizarre naked woman body’s. I am not saying a regular nude art like you would find in the beautiful museums or even churches with a beautiful body’s in a natural way… no, it was something more grotesque, so finding a proper room for the priest and the teen boys was actually tough. If you don’t care about this, the hotel is amazing, but if you do, then double check the pictures of the hotel and know that there is one estrange naked woman in each wall.

Superb

Liked: The hotel is very near to the Basillica di San Antonio and near the Prato della Valle. My room has no view to the Basillica but it is okay.
Disliked: The shower gel was in tiny bottles. I wish you could put more shower gel in the bathroom.
