Guest Ratings & Reviews
Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were modern, comfortable, and with a lovely view of the garden. The service was efficient and helpful, although there were some minor hiccups. The location couldn't have been more perfect for exploring the charming city of Modena. Dining options were decent, but there were some improvements needed. The facilities offered were satisfactory for a pleasant stay.
The hotel is centrally located, just off the center, making it convenient to visit everything in the city. The rooms are a bit old-fashioned but spacious and very clean, providing a comfortable stay. The service is extremely kind and helpful, going above and beyond to assist guests. Dining offers a wide variety of options to suit everyone's taste, and the facilities are well-maintained, enhancing the overall experience.
The hotel is centrally located in the old center of Modena, making it perfect for exploring the city. The rooms, while very comfortable, are on the smaller side, falling short of typical 4-star hotel expectations. The service was a mix of friendly and helpful staff, with minor lapses in welcoming attitudes. The dining options offered a variety of choices but left some room for improvement. Overall, a convenient and cozy hotel with a few areas to enhance.
