Hotels near Area cani recintata, Brescia

The hotel is located on the nearby road to the centre, so comfortable to visit the city, walking. The informal and tendency-based environment has been voted on the modern approach to the offer of services. The room is not very large and has essential furniture that is comfortable for one night. Clean room. Adequate and clean bathroom.

I chose to stay at the Centro Paolo VI when I booked a trip to Italy at short notice, inspired by the good reviews on Trippadvisor. My experience was predominantly positive. Room was clean, with good air-conditioning. The furnishings were simple. The bed was, perhaps, a little too firm for my taste, and a bit low for a bloke with a bad knee. :-) Lighting in the bedroom might have been a bit brighter. The bathroom was clean, although, as mentioned by some other reviews, the shower was a bit tight. The building is a bit of a mixture. In part, it is a grand baroque palace, but other parts are much more functional. It has clearly been in institutional use for a long time. I gather that, before taking on its present function in 1975, it had been a seminary. It remains a church foundation, and functions mainly as a conference centre, offering meeting rooms for far more more people than it could accommodate overnight. Its lifts, as remarked in some less positive reviews, are decidedly old-fashioned but were perfectly adequate to get me and my luggage up and down, which is, after all, the only thing you need a lift to do. So far as food is concerned, breakfast was served in buffet style, with staff bringing coffee or tea to guests at their tables. Weather permitting, breakfast can be eaten outside in the garden. What was less helpful about the very obvious conference centre purpose was the situation about evening meals. For the first four evenings of my stay, I ate in the restaurant. Choice was a bit limited, but the food was tasty and served by a friendly waiter. On the fifth night, a Sunday, I cheerfully set off to the restaurant, only to find it closed. Not only is it always closed on Sundays, it was now closed for a summer break until 28 August! This is NOT notified on the web site, nor any any notice displayed in the building. This may make perfect sense for a conference centre in a period when nobody is arranging conferences, but is awkward for holiday accommodation. The building is in a quiet area, but is served by buses on neighbouring streets. Brescia's complex one-way system means that, for example, the 12 from the station stops one street away at the front, but the bus going towards the station stops a couple of streets to the rear. It is only about 5 minutes' walk to the biggest cultural site of the city, the Santa Giulia Museum, and other places of interest are within walking distance. Staff were invariably friendly and helpful. Incidentally, if you are going by car, booking directly with the institutions gets free parking in a safe, enclosed yard.

When you go through, you can book directly, and occasionally stay for one night, you can only say the standard of Novotel.

This Hotel (which is a Motel not a Hotel) is the worst nightmare I have ever experienced in a lifetime spent traveling the world over! Parking under the Hotel “at your own risk. The Hotel takes no responsibilities for thefts.” The A/C was not working at all - in a night of scorching heat (30 degrees Celsius), I called the Front Desk several times, they always told me they would look into it and resolve the issue and would get back to me/never did! DIDN’T SLEEP ALL NIGHT LONG because of the heat and stickiness in the room! In the morning I tried to take a shower: ONLY COLD WATER in the room! In the morning I went to complain at the Reception: very rude and arrogant personnel. At 7:15am I showed up at the Breakfast Buffet, literally NOTHING WAS LEFT! They told me “because they had a Group of Chinese that just had breakfast”. Please NO B.S. - I have never seen such an embarrassing scene (for the Hotel!) all my life!

We stayed here because the other place we were at was completely unacceptable. When I called to check on a room, ”Enzo” took great care of us. He put us in a king suite. It was clean and every necessity was there. We were there in winter, so we didn't use either of the pools, but we did get a good meal at the attacked Indian restaurant. Thank you Enzo.

I was sorely disappointed with this property. I totally agree with a recent review: the rooms at this new property are entirely TOO HOT and UNCOMFORTABLE. Even when booking the hotel, I was met with complications, regulations and stupidity. On a prepaid reservation via Hilton Honors, one of my primary credit cards had been recently changed/deactivated and I tried valiantly to get the problem rectified, only to have the hotel email a form attached that required a written authorisation, plus identification to be scanned/faxed back to the hotel. I didn’t have access to a scanner/fax on the road. After several calls via Hilton Honors desk to the property, sanity prevailed and was able to verbally give the proper active credit card over the phone to the hotel. Upon arrival, the room was like an oven at 28c (82F). I opened the windows (they only open up about 8cm (3in) in the hope that things might cool down after I had gone out sightseeing in Brescia for a few hours. By evening, it had only “cooled” to 25c (77F) – and this was at 9:00PM. I rang the front desk to see if something could be done. I took matters into my own hands, going directly to reception, requesting a room that was not on the sunny side. I was told nothing was available on the opposite side. Mind you, this hotel with over 135 rooms was far from busy and all they would say is that regulations prohibit air-conditioning being turned on this time of year [April] however, the hallways of the hotel were cooler than the room itself (all reception would say is that the halls are ”inside”, and thus cooler). And like a clueless robot, reception repeated, “open the window, open the window” (the ones that only open a few cms/inches) The new room was a “cooler” 24c (75F). Needless to say, I didn’t have a restful night in my sauna of a room – with windows open, and the noise of outside street traffic & pedestrians. I managed to squeeze in a few hours sleep due to pure exhaustion, waking up tired & irritable. The buffet breakfast was small & cramped, the food palatable from the small choices available. Oh yeah, one minor thing I've noted: in both rooms, there were heavy metal tissue holders in the bathroom, but no tissues - either the hotel is poorly managed, or they are too cheap to provide tissues (Kleenex). This is my first (and last) trip to the Brescia Doubletree - what a bunch of dopes!

Leading a business trip Ctrip hotel, the price is very fair, similar to the domestic chain hotel, but the environment is good, the service is good, you can directly request the invoice, it is convenient

Avevo letto delle recensioni molto interessanti. Ottima colazione abbondante, ristorante, belle stanze, moderno... Scelto per una tappa obbligata in zona e perchè sarebbe un 4 stelle. La prima impressione è spettacolare. Molto bella la hall, moderna, due ascensori, diversi piani, tranquillo, parcheggio davanti. Camera all'ultimo piano. Media grandezza. Cerchiamo le pantofole elencate nella lista delle forniture e non esistono. Meno male che ne porto sempre per precauzione. L'armadio o la cabina armadio non esiste. C'è uno stand appendiabiti con 6 grucce. Tradotto, non abbiamo disfatto le valigie. C'è solo un cassetto con gli asciugamani per il secondo ospite. Volevo aprire una finestra (o la porta-finestra che da su una terrazza) e nessuna delle due si apre. Niente ricambio di aria. Abbiamo un pò freddo e dopo svariati tentativi di aumentare il termostato vado a chiedere. Era la stessa procedura che ho fatto più volte. Si poteva abbassare, ma non alzare. Ritornava sempre a quella preimpostata. Un piumino leggero sul letto, niente coperte o altro per coprirci di notte avessimo avuto freddo. Il letto abbastanza comodo, cuscini alti. Al mattino, entrambi con mal di schiena. Il frigobar aveva la grande varietà di due bottigliette di acqua. La tv a schermo piatto funziona, però dovevamo mettere una chiavetta che avevamo portato e non le legge. Il bagno, dove era scritto sulla prenotazione, prodotti da bagno, ha un sapone liquido per viso e mani, uno nella doccia ( aperta a metà), e tre cotton fiock con cotone e una limetta di cartoncino. Lasciamo perdere la colazione abbondante. Tre croissant ( vuoto. marmellata di albicocche, cioccolato), tre torte banalissime di pan di spagna- un giorno una crostata-, due tipi di fette biscottate, 4 tipi di marmellatine confezionate, cesto di frutta, due o tre tipi di frutta tagliata, qualche yogurt, cereali, pane, uova strapazzate, bacon, melanzane grigliate, prosciutto, formaggio a fette, verdura bollita. Le bevande a macchinetta con buona scelta di bustine di tè. Premetto che ho trovato degli hotel a 3 stelle con il triplo di prodotti sia dolci che salati. Noi, da buoni italiani, ci aspettiamo torte, muffin, pancakes, svariate brioches o biscotti. Le colazioni pantagrueliche all'estero qui se le sognano. Il ristorante lo davano aperto solo in settimana. A prescindere dal personale in genere molto gentile, la mio opinione è un 'mai più'. Le recensioni lette su booking, o altri siti, non sono più attendibili, dopo questo ulteriore fallimento in quelle zone.

Seconda volta in questa struttura. Si conferma un’ottima esperienza. Camera in ordine, spaziosa. Condizionatore funzionante e non troppo rumoroso. Ottimo isolamento acustico, la prima volta eravamo lato parcheggio hotel, questa volta retro, quindi lato autostrada. Fino a che non abbiamo aperto le finestre, nessun rumore. Colazione internazionale, quindi per tutti i gusti.
