Awful experience in our second stay here in 5 years. Would not recommend and will not return. Only good thing was the proximity to the train station, but next time I'll take a taxi and stay elsewhere. Upon check in, they told us they'd had AC all summer but recently turned it off, not expecting the heat in October. Now the AC was broken. They would not supply portable fans. They had no sympathy. The room was stifling hot. Opening the windows only let in the street noise and mosquitos. We couldn't sleep. This ruined our stay in Padova and we cancelled the rest of our visit there and left as soon as we could on the next day's train. All the other hotels in Italy that we stayed in this month were able to offer AC or fans. The heat was known and they offered reasonable responses out of concern for their guests. But not the Hotel Grand'Italia. Padova itself is well worth a visit; many beautiful and interesting artworks and architecture.

Fabulous location of you want transportation hub. Easy to grab tram to old town---a but long, but not too bad to walk. Despite being right across from train station, not much noise Hotel clean, friendly helpful staff. Building is kinda old, my room small (and inexpensive!), elevator slow, but they do well with what they have. Clean and well maintained. Would stay here again.

The staff are to be commended - they are friendly and efficient and easily handled my change from a room with a friend to my own room after they left - storing my luggage and having it placed in my room when I returned from a day trip to Ravenna. They also happily provided room service of an incredible tomato and mozzerella salad with olives and very fresh greens and fresh rolls - all for an extremely reasonable price - such a nice treat after a long day of sightseeing. Mille gracie!

The hotel is in front of the train station, so no taxi expenses is needed to go to the hotel. Checkin was ok. No tea and coffee in the room. Charged 8 euro for this. Not glad about this. The bathroom is horrible. Dirty shower curtain and dirty wall in the bath.

We feared that the proximity to the trainstation will be a flaw, but it clearly proved to be convenient, in proximity to major attractions such as the Capella Scrovegni, Piazza delle erbe , duomo, battistery. The hotel had a very friendly staff, ready to assist. The breakfest was fresh and tasty. There is daily room arrangement. We stayed in a quiet backroom. Tha many foreigners in the aerea were not a problem

Great choice, very convenient to transportation
Hotel is literally right across the street from the main train station in Padua. We used it as a hub for travel to Venice and Verona, which ended up working out well. The breakfast buffet is excellent for the cost and I would recommend that as a point of convenience if you have a busy schedule planned

The hotel was located across the street from the train station which was extremely convenient. The hotel staff were helpful and courteous. They had wonderful huge breakfast assortment which was included in our reservation. The only draw back was people congregated around outside of hotel and were talking and playing music loudly until late at night. They had stopped by the time we went to sleep. Other than that we enjoyed the hotel.

Old and tired
Not a 4-star hotel. The room does not look like it has been updated in 20+ years—definitely not like the photo. No irons on property. Blood stain on the towel. Old, worn, stained shower. No air conditioning at this time of year. No iron at any time of year, so it’s not a business hotel. They refunded our money because it was too hot to stay here.

Perfect hotel to visit Padua because it is directly across the street from the train station, so you drop your luggage right away. Few minutes walk to Scrovegni Chapel and a pleasant walk to the city historical centre. Our room was very comfortable and clean. It was quiet. It is an old building with 3 ft thick outer walls. Nice big bathtub was appreciated.

Great location
The staff was great with letting us check in early. They took care of our luggage and got it up to our room. The room was spacious with a large bathroom. The only drawback was that the room was unbearably hot. Nothing could be done with it because of the laws in Italy regarding when to turn off the heat. The hotel is across from the train station and about a 10-15 minute walk to the Screvegni Chapel. Lots of fabulous food too.

Great for Venezia, Padova, Vicenza Sightseeing
I stayed here during my sightseeing trip of Venezia, Vicenza and Padova. This station is located right in front of station so it is so convenient if you taking train. Around station is not commercial district so it is fairly quiet. The center of town is about 20 minutes walk away. If you are going to Venezia, I strongly recommend staying in Padova and take 30 minutes train ride to Venezia because Venezia is very expensive and it is hard to navigate the city with your luggage(most of bridges you have to go through in Venezia has stairs). Hotel d’Italia is convenient and room was very clean and spacious enough. Bath tub was great after full day of walking around. Stuff is nice and helpful.

The hotel has older equipment and does not seem to fit the price category. I was requesting quite room and got room next to reception and heard every call of the receptionists. The eggs and pancakes were served cold during breakfast and bathroom was not clean.
