Hotel Continental - Vicenza

9.2

Thanks for a very pleasant 4-night stay, on comfortable beds in a nice quiet room, with good breakfasts, a parking bay for our hire car and friendly, competent staff and cleaners

8.7

This was a perfect one-night stop with our 7 yr old son. Right price and very comfortable accommodations. Super helpful desk staff who gave advice on walking to La Rotunda and then into historic Vicenza, checked on trains to Venice, called a taxi, etc. Our only complaint with the stay was a very loud group of guests in the hall at 3am.

8.7

Very good price/value ratio and very, clean, modern hotel. Nice staff. Only catch is that it is 10 min walk from city center but can u live with that this is great place.

8.7

staff very profesional

9.6

The nicest and kindnest employees we have had in Italy. They are really very good professionals (everybody). The best hotel in Vicenza.

8.2

The hotel was very much as expected. Although not in a particularly attractive part of town it was only a 10 minute walk to the centre. The fact that it was next to the football stadium was very useful when we got a bit lost walking back as there are a number of signs to it. The staff were very helpful, even supplying a laptop to check on our flights and helped with directions to nearby villas.

7.8

El hotel está muy bien, aunque algo alejado del centro de la ciudad.

9.1

Todo perfecto, el hotel está un poco lejos de la estación de tren, pero del centro está a diez minutos andando. En recepción muy amables. Nos dieron una habitación enorme (para cuatro personas) aunque sólo eramos dos. Al desayuno hay que bajar antes de la media hora de finalizar porque sino te quedas sin nada.

9.9

Very nice hotel. Super clean, big rooms, quiet, friendly, included big breakfasts for my teens, coffee bar on premises open all hours, a little walk to old town...great value.

9.9

We were impressed for the excellent renovation of this hotel. Reception service,breakfast could not have been better

9.4

Super place to stay in Vicenza - thoroughly recommended for all travellers. Location at football stadium is reasonable and inside the hotel is tremendous. The staff were very good.

8.2

Overall stay very nice. Too bad the room we got smelled of urine. But we checked the other rooms on our way out and none of them smelled at all. Just unlucky I guess. Staff very friendly, and also apologized for the room smell.

7.6

Even though it is rated as 3 stars. It should be more than that. Good buffet breakfast. Clean room. Flat panel TV. Clean bathroom. The only drawback is the location. That is really too far away from the train station, downtown and everything. A bit quiet to walk back to the hotel at night time. However, all over comment to this hotel is good as compare with the price.

8.6

We stayed in the family room, which was very spacious and very clean. The beds were not that comfortable but we only stayed one night so no problem. There is very limited parking directly next to the hotel but parking across the street is available. We would stay at this hotel again.

7.0

I stayed in Vicenza in 1980's when the hotel was kind of neglected. Rooms were surprisingly clean and large, bathrooms seems renovated, although not all. Hotel serves reasonable breakfast, there is a small bar near the registration desk attended only by the clerk, if asked. We were allowed to park our car in the hotel gated yard, otherwise there is a shortage of parking space (as in most hotels in Italy). They allowed us to store one of our suitcases for 4 days while we visited other parts of the country. Staff is very friendly and helpfull. For the price and waling distance to Palladio you can't find a better hotel in Vicenza

9.9

This is an excellent hotel with clean, modern rooms, charming, helpful staff, and only ten minutes' walk from the old town. Breakfast was very good, and there is a small roof garden to relax after a day's sightseeing. If you arrive by train, you can take a no.3 bus from the right hand side of Viale Roma, the main street which leads away from the station. It takes you all round the town, but will drop you a few yards from the hotel. Just around the corner (turn left out of the hotel, then left at the roundabout)is a really good restaurant - the Picchio d'Ora. It doesn't look much from the outside, but the food is excellent, and not at all expensive. We really enjoyed staying at the Continental, and would highly recommend it.

9.1

Exceeded what we expected, looks unpreposing from outside, but fine inside, clean and simple, our room comfortable with reasonable space. Very impressed with breakfast. Instructions on arriving by car from autostrada were correct, but interpretation could be clearer. Quick and easy walk into town and to the parts of town of interest. nearby convienence store was useful.

9.5

We have stayed before, and will certainly stay again. Everything was as we expected, and if anything, the breakfast was better than previously. The signposting in Vicenza is a little excentric, and so would emphasise that you follow signs to the Stadio, which is across the road. Note that access can be restricted if there is a football match being played.

9.0

Great hotel, friendly staff. Ask for a cappucino to be made at the bar for breakfast, it will be better than the machine they have set up. Otherwise, the breakfast was excellent.

9.3

The staff was so helpful! Checking in and out were so easy. The breakfast offered was fantastic!

9.9

We had a quad room which was a double bed, one twin bed and a fold-out couch. The size of the bedroom and bathroom were great. We just stayed there on our way to Venice so we didn't tour the area but the hotel staff directed us to a great restaurant within walking distance(and great prices). Continental breakfast was better than other places we stayed at in Italy. Our GPS got us there no problem, we didn't try the directions on the webpage.

9.7

quite a surprise, the best accomodation during the whole trip. It exceeded my expectations and was relatively close to the historic city centre.

9.2

It is an extremely pleasant stay there. People in the front desk are very helpful and you could feel that they are very happy from their heart to tell you whatever information you need. They also provide good suggestion, not only repeat what is written on tourist interest guide. Good breakfast too, except there are not too many choices for the restaurants for dinners.

8.8

3 stars but relly 4 stars

9.4

We enjoyed our stay in the Quad/Family room. It was very reasonable for 4 people. The breakfast was excellent quality. The staff was very welcoming and helpful with obtaining information regarding train travel and restaurants. If you have luggage you'll need a cab to get here, but we walked into town in 15 minutes and walked to the train station without our luggage in 20 minutes. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would love to return!

8.7

This was my second time at this hotel. My only (small) gripe is the coffee at the breakfast buffet, which does not do justice to a hotel in Italy; otherwise fine; best quality for price in Vicenza; > Better coffee please.

9.9

Excellent hotel close to historic center, spacious rooms, parking facilities, great breakfast, professionnal staff. Exceptionnal value (64 euros B&B for a double).

9.9

A great hotel for value vs cost. We stayed in the Quadruple room with 2 kids (8yrs and 7yrs) There were 3 queen size beds and plenty of room. The breakfast was very sufficient for the price and the staff extremely friendly. Well worth the money.

9.2

Very nice hotel with spacious, well designed renovated rooms. Good breakfast, free WiFi connection and parking.

8.0

excellent choice and as their write-up says, it's really a pleasant 10 minute walk to the Olympic Theater, the heart of Vicenza.very wide breakfast choices. quiet neighborhood,nice bathroom. all in all,definitely a place to stay again.

10

This was a great hotel. Very spacious, and a 15 min. walk to the center of town. We didn't have to pay for parking, as you have to do with many European hotels. Great breakfast selection.

8.6

Nice hotel not far from the centre of Vicenza. We enjoyed our stay, the hotel employees are very friendly.

8.3

This hotel was chosen based on the price, location and available amenities. Internet access was free, breakfast was good and free parking was available (They had about 5-6 free spaces alongside the hotel, but the lot across the street only cost 50 cents/hour from 8 am to 8 pm. If the free spaces were unavailable, the lot was well lit and quite reasonable). Accessing the historic sites required a 10-minute walk through a safe, residential neighborhood. Vicenza was a lovely city with gorgeous villas in the nearby countryside that were easily accessible by car. Some of the greatest photos of Vicenza can be taken from the huge parking area in front of the Basilica of Monte Berico, as it overlooks the city. We only booked a one-night stay, but I accidentally left my jewelry in the 'open' safe on the day of departure. I contacted Luca via email to report my problem and he responded within a day to tell me that the jewelry was found. Although he suggested that I contact DHL to send my jewelry to the US, we decided to return (it was on the way back to Venice where we had our scheduled departure)and stay for another night. Not only did I receive all my jewelry, but we also got a suite for the additional night we booked even though we paid the regular rate! Overall, this is a good location for easy access to a lovely historic city. The honesty of the staff was impressive!

9.3

Great value, huge rooms, newly renovated. Surroundings are nothing special, but safe. A 15 minute walk to the centre of town.

8.7

We stayed in a quad room, 2 queen beds and a sofa. Very spacious and clean. Breakfast buffet was good, and items were promptly replaced when empty. Staff were friendly and helpful with surrounding area information. Highly reccomend the hotel for price/value. Close (by car) to train and bus station, which makes the location of the hotel easy to visit Verona and Venice.

8.2

nice and sympatic employees

9.5

The hotel is rather hard to find, the description on the homepage is not very helpful if you are a stranger in the town. The rooms are great, very modern and arranged tastefully. You feel comfortable right away! The relationship between price and quality is perfect, especially the rich breakfast is really good.

9.2

Stylish rooms, friendly staff, convenient location. All in all, a good choice.

8.2

The room was good and the staff were friendly. A litle walk into town and the train station but ok. Breakfast was good with a lot of choice

8.9

Splendid suite, very very gentle staff, price OK. The only thing to improve is the breakfast. I think is a little bit poorer than the rest. But, all things considered, we enjoy absolutely the room, etc. No doubt, we'll be back.

9.4

This hotel was nice and the rooms very spacious. The breakfast in the morning was decent and the staff very welcoming. We traveled to Venice from here and it was a easy bus ride to the train station. I agree with others in that we stayed at a 4 star in Milan and were more happy with this hotel. Recommend this hotel and would come back again if in the area.

9.1

Very nice and inexpensive hotel for short and also longer stay in Vicenza (ideal choice for Palladio's fans - hotel is in midway between city's centre and Valmarana & Rotonda villas). Friendly and responsive stuff. Spacious and clean rooms (some wish - it's good , if also in 4th floor rooms will be available wi-fi internet).

9.8

The Hotel was excellent and the location was great, it was centrally located between all the great sights in Vicenza.

9.8

The hotel is a handy 10 minute walk from the tourist centre of Vicenza, and the staff will provide you with a map and helpful directions. Although all of the main attractions are within walking distance, there is a regular bus service throughout the centre of the city. Café Restaurant Dai Nodari, in Contra do Rode, provides great food and a friendly service, at a reasonable price.

8.7

Stylish rooms. 10 minutes to Teatro Olimpico.

7.1

There is limited on street parking.However there are several dining choices within a 10 to 15 min walk.The desk clerks are quite helpful

9.7

Very nice hotel, rooms are large and beautiful, good breakfast, good location. Were very touched by warm welcome and hospitality.

7.7

the hotel site is under construction, not the rooms

9.9

Dalle foto su venere me lo aspettavo peggio, è stata una gradevole sorpresa. In 10 minuti a piedi si raggiunge sia il centro storico che la stazione. E' comunque ben servito con il bus. Silenzioso, camere pulite, buona colazione e personale gentile. Prenotare da venere costa meno che per telefono. La conferma della prenotazione nel mio caso è stata pressocchè immediata.

9.3

Very good hotel, walking distance to the very very nice city center of Vicenza. Rooms are very large, new furniture and painting. Good breakfast offerings.

8.6

validissimo hotel, personale molto gentile e disponibile, più che sufficiente e varia la prima colazione compresa nel prezzo, il parcheggio è molto piccolo ma proprio accanto all'hotel c'è quello dello stadio a pagamento di giorno comunque molto economico, l'hotel è periferico in ogni caso non lontanissimo dal centro storico... volendo fare 2 passi. Tornerei senz'altro in questo hotel.

8.0

Great value if you don't mind a 10 min walk into the town centre. My room was spotlessly clean and felt like it was brand new. I would stay there again.

9.0

Very smart hotel within easy walking distance of all places of interest.

9.5

Hotel staff are very welcoming and helpfull. Parking facilities very good. Location good. Clean rooms and bathrooms. A good experience. Breakfast normal as in other good hotels of this level.

9.6

L'hotel est parfait pour visiter les environs et surtout venise en toute quiétude. Le personnel sympathique parle anglais et français.

8.6

good hotel. the only drawback is the distance with the center but it is worse with most hotels in Vicenza

9.8

The conceirge was most helpful in many ways. Overall a great stay in Vicenza.

9.5

deligtful stay : the Continental is modern, efficient, rooms are very spacious and convenient, employees were eager and professionnal( a change was made on request : an additional room provided with Internet rate). I highly recommand "Continental"

8.7

We went to Vicenza to attend a trade show at the Fiera - and hit the tourist trail as much as we could. For the driver, the Continental is sign posted, but it's worth bearing in mind that it is across the road from the Stadio - keenly signed. Walking, it is 15/20 mins out of the historic centre - seems further walking back! The hotel faces onto a quiet side road, and the area is peaceful at night. We had no complaints, and will definately stay there again - ideally for longer.

8.7

This hotel was a short walk from the station, and a short walk to the centre of Vicenza, where all the sights and the restuarants were. An ideal place to stay to explore all that Vicenza has to offer.

8.4

Internet service is free,but printer didn't work.No bath tub,only shower.Shower room drain pipe is olmost plugged.The hotel is new and clean.

9.7

We received a wonderful welcome from the staff. The directions they gave us for finding the hotel by car were clear and easy to follow. Parking was right outside and free.The staff recommended a great local restaurant just a round the corner. The only negative comment is that it might be a little noisy staying here when there is a game on at the stadium next door. However we would love to come back, both to Vicenza and the Hotel Continental.

4.5

Excellent service for us (good knowledge of English). Beautifully presented hotel for the price.

9.4

This relatively small family run hotel is being completely upgraded. Our room was tastefully decorated and spotless. The staff was friendly and very accomodating. The hotel is located only a short ten minute walk to the center of Vicenza. There are few restaurants in the immediate area of the hotel, but many in the center of the town. This is a good hotel.

10

This was the best hotel we stayed in in Italy, better even than the 4-star in Milano, in terms of size of room. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, breakfast was plentiful and varied, all was immaculate, and location was convenient and pleasant.

9.1

Staff were very welcoming and competent and the room was modern and spacious. The hotel is well located for access to the centre of town.

8.3

We had a good time in Vicenza and as well in the Hotel Continental. Friendly people everywhere. We liked our nicely renovated room. The only "negativ" point: the hotel is located a bit far from the historic center and therefore not so ideal for people with walking problems. But all in all I can recommend the Hotel Continental as a place to go.

8.9

I have traveled to Italy 3 times in the past six months and so far, the Hotel Contintental has been my favorite hotel. The rooms were as described on the website, very clean and modern. The bathroom was spacious. The location was close to town; about a 10 minute walk but with a few restaurants and a grocery store nearby. The staff spoke English very well and were very helpful and accommodating. I would definitely stay again!

9.5

Very clean and spacious for family of four, traveling with pet. Staff personnel were all very personable, and provided timely, quality service. We've already recommended it to friends planning to visit the area. Would definetly stay here again!

9.4

recently refurbished, technologically up to date, design furniture, good price, excellent price/perfomance

9.6

The rooms are very modern and are very nice. The clean design of each room makes for a peaceful surrounding. The restrooms are very clean in the rooms and the toilet even comes sealed and sterilized for the arrival of each guest. My only complaint is the ground floor. The ground floor doesn't seem to have caught up with the modern movement the rooms have taken; it needs to catch up. For three stars, this hotel, though, has surpassed my expectations. Book now.

8.5

Was quite ok the location and surroundings. Nor far from the city and next to the nice stadium of Vicenza Calcio. The only point what was really bad, that concerns the quality of the coffee at breakfast. I have never drunk such a bad coffee and that was really hard for me because I am a passionated coffee drinker especially of italian coffee. This was the only bad point...all in all really good hotel

10

The front desk staff at this hotel was helpful, friendly, supportive and best of all spoke English. They really went out of their way to help us in every way. I can't begin to say how grateful we were for their kindness, turning a bad situation into a very happy stay in Vicenza. Thank you Hotel Continental!!

10

This hotel provided everything we expected. The staff are excellent, and the rooms are very clean modern and spacious as I believe the hotel was renovated quite recently. We thoroughly recommend it.

8.7

Lovely spacious room, representing good value for money. Reception staff very helpful and courteous. A short, ten minute walk into the heart of the old town.

10

Fantastic hotel. As a family of five (three small girls), it is often difficult to find a room large enough for us all to stay together. We booked the suite, which was plenty big enough for a queen bed and three singles. The hotel is just a short walk to the center of town., and there is a wonderful little supermarket nearby. The breakfast was fabulous, and the staff was incredibly helpful. All of them went out of their way to make us feel welcome. This hotel is a great value, and we will definitely stay here again.

9.9

Lovely hotel with good service. Short walk into centre. Nice choice at breakfast. Parking a bit difficult and next to unimpressive football stadium but overall would highly recommend

8.0

Très bon hotel, situé dans un quartier quelconque légèrement excentré, mais vraiment à 10 minutes à pied du centre historique. Aménagement moderne et confortable pour des chambres spacieuses et propres. Très bon rapport qualité/prix

8.8

The hotel is good, the staff were very helpful. The only problem is the walk to the town centre (about 10 minutes) including crossing a complicated intersection with no pedestrian crossing which could be difficult with small kids. I guess it would be fine in the summer, but the walk was a bit of a drag in the icy cold weather we were there in (January)!

9.8

Our room was very pretty in a pleasing modern style. The two handsome men (twins or brothers?) who staffed the desk were very nice and helpful. Most of the places we went to in Italy cost a lot more for the same quality of hotel.

6.2

Close enough to Malpensa to make early flight, BUT be aware that you need to tackle two highway stretches to get there, if one of them has an accident, you are in bumber to bumber traffice for quite a while and only solution to that is to flick on the emergency lights and take curb side. I had to do this. I have no idea what the problem was but this highway was JAMMED to the max and I was going to be late for the flight if not doing above. It is not that close, yet close enough if you leave early and be prepared for bad traffic during traffic hours. Hotel itself ok, contl breakfast ok, nothing in the area, so it is just for the purposes to go bed and fly off next morning, clean rooms, parking provided in building.

7.5

Brought our small dog, so they did not put us in one of their renovated rooms. Our room was sparse, wood floor, no rugs near bed, only one small rug in front of the table. Lghts on each side of the bed were burnt out...I replaced them myself after getting new bulbs from front desk. Hotel is on a busy street so lots of road noise. Door did not lock automatically, we had to lock it with the key from the inside, =antiquated system? On a positive note: front desk person spoke English well and was very eager to help. Also breakfast buffet was good: juices, meats, cheese, yogurt, fruit, pastries, cereal. Bottom line: It was OK but somewhat outdated, and we probably would stay somewhere else next time. Cheers,...

7.7

leider ein bisschen außerhalb des zentrums (10 min fusslaeufig), direkt gegenüber dem fussballstadion in einer eher heterogenen umgebung. zimmer war ganz neu, trotzdem glucksten die wasserleitungen und rauschte die klospuelung der nachbarn. fruehstueck o.k.

8.2

Nice hotel -- small, adequate rooms, with friendly and knowledgeable staff. In a decent area of town, but rather difficult to find for someone who wasn't familiar with the area.

9.8

Rapporto qualità prezzo pù che ottimo

9.0

Exactly as we expected from the listing. About 5 minutes' walk from town, along/across a couple of busy streets. It might be a problem in the rain, but in good weather, no problem. Also, the location is not really in the center, so does not have the "experience" of being in the town. Rather, it's on the edge of town, across from the football stadium. We arrived by car, and the hotel was easy to find using the directions from the website.

8.7

The people at the desk were very accomodating, the location was somewhat out of the way, but with a car, easily dealt with. The main negative was very limited parking available.

8.2

It's a nice hotel, near the city center with a good compromise between price and quality. Breakfast is very good

9.2

It is very nice small hotel excellent for transit guests or those who stays for a short time. Rooms are furnished very modern and they are much better than lobby and restaurant.

9.8

A 10 minutes à pieds du centre ville, cet hôtel confortable est bien placé pour une visite agréable de Vicence.

9.9

Molto bene! A very pleasant surprise. The largest room (and bathroom) of any hotel we have stayed anywhere. All the employees were "on the ball" and very helpful with directions and other tourist information. The continental breakfast at the Continental was also the best we have encountered. While the first to blocks of the walk to the historic center were on a busy street, the rest of the short walk was quite nice. The few near-by restuarants ranged from "just fine" to "very good". There is also a handy food market near by. If you want to see the palladians, stay here. We would not consider doing anything different.

8.4

The people at the front desk are very welcoming and helpfull. Upon entering the City, the hotel was a bit difficult to find as there are many one-way streets. Very near the soccer stadium. Email available for a reasonable price. Would recommend for a short-duration stay.

8.9

Great hotel and even better breakfast. The only disadvantage was location from the center of the town. Walkable, but a little far.

10

We were lucky to find this hotel. It is a very clean and proficient hotel. The location to town center is excellent. We will go there again for either business or holiday. Fantastic hotel.

8.5

Good price/quality hotel , very good breakfast buffet , 70's (old)fashioned rooms and bathroom but clean , in surroundings of historic center but 'stadio' area is very common

7.9

they were under construction renovation during our stay so quite bit a noise as a result. get a good and complet Vicenzia map before you go there if you don't want to wate time time to locate this hotel.

7.6

Overall satisfactory, very good employees
