Nice place
Sukina and her afternoon/evening colleague at reception were wonderful, providing sightseeing and shopping suggestions. It is right in the middle of the old city and convenient to everything.

The staff were very helpful and friendly, breakfast was great, our room was spacious, and the only slight problem was odors from a restaurant next door. But otherwise, the location cannot be beat!

The hotel is ideally located, walkable to the main squares, shops and restaurants. The staff were all very helpful - rooms were comfortable and the breakfast was great. Would recommend the hotel and hope to visit again.

Very friendly and comfortable hotel right in the wonderful historic centre of Brescia, 2 minutes from the Duomo. The only reason I didn't award 5 stars is that the breakfast room is a little small if you like a long leisurely breakfast.

Albergo Orologio has a GREAT staff!
The best thing I can say for this hotel (aside from being old and in the historic center of Brescia), is the REMARKABLE STAFF! They were EXCELLENT, and did their best to ensure your stay was a good one. Other than that, the room was dimly lit, even with the drapes wide open, and come night, the lighting made worse. The bathroom also dimly lit, and the shower is small. If you are a person of GIRTH, then taking a comfortable shower might come with its setbacks. As it was for us, and we are NOT overweight. Plus, the sink drained horribly. There was a queen-size bed and a single bed in our room, and that made opening up the one-large standing closet with a lock, a challange. Because you would have to push the single bed aside, just to get to your clothes.Although, the housekeeping staff kept the room spotless, and with fresh towels and linen daily. As far as the breakfast: Average - a few notches above continental. But the coffee was awful! Even a brewed cappucino tasted weak, and unlike the cappucinos from other hotels or cafes. However, the woman working in the dining room did a great job and was quite kind.The hotel is within easy walking distances to practically everything. Also, there is also a wonderful-little bakery located directly across from the hotel,that has some delicious goodies. Finally, If you want to experience Brescia from a old-town perspective, then Albergo Orologio Hotel may be for you!

Excellent service
Our three night stay at Albergo Orologio was a delight, with a clean, spacious, well-appointed room.- and friendly, knowledgeable staff. They provided all the information we needed, including free parking at the nearby Castello and good food at a discount price at the restaurant opposite. No matter what we asked,.they obliged with a smile.

Lovely hotel
Perfect location and lovely staff. Very welcoming. We booked a double room and were allocated a triple so a spare bed which we did not need, took up space. The bathroom was adequate although very small. View from the room was nice. We loved the breakfast, lots to choose from. I think it is better to use proper glasses rather than the plastic ones foe the breakfast drinks. Overall we had a wonderful stay and its recommended.

Excellent location. The staff at reception were all friendly, professional and accommodating. The rooms and especially the bathrooms are on the small side. The bed was very comfortable but the pillows were not - but upon request I was given a different better pillow. The breakfast was sparse. I probably wouldn't choose to stay here again but I think the value and experience is well in line with the price.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Location was great but this was the nosiest hotel I have ever experienced. Reception desk next to staircase to the rooms and the receptionist spoke so loud that I could hear every word. I had to turn on the TV in order to not hear every conversation at the reception desk. Receptionist was rather rude. The only redeeming value of the hotel is its prime location but it is a steep price to pay when sleep or quiet is impossible due to a very loud receptionist who has no regard for the quests.

Great very central place in Brescia
Stayed for a family visit to Brescia. The location is awesome, right in the center, you cannot possibly be closer to the historic sites. No parking, but this is understandable, and a public parking is within 4 min walk. Breakfast is ok, just slower due to COVID. Our quadruple room was enormous - probably the largest we ever stayed in, located right under the room, even had a skylight with an amazing view. Overall, really good value and highly recommended.

Best Stars ever
Best Stars ever – Room 15 with 2 balconies and fantastic views – all in the centre of town. Friendly, helpful and welcoming staff; best value good breakfast in Italy. Organised airport transfer to Milan at reasonable value. Next stop in Brescia we will book here again. We can highly recommend this accommodation. Some minor recommendations and observations: - Fix shower head bracket because it tends to slide down. - Improve on towel brackets as the towels slide off. - The shower is not for tall people as it measures about 1,8 metres to under need the showerhead – however the bed is unusually long and would be great for tall people. Kind Regards Roeland and Mandy

Pleasant old style small hotel in historical centr
The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good with choices. Shower and bathroom very small. Disturbing factor was that washbasin and bidet had large plug holes with no filter. Interdental brushes disappeared down the plug hole and so could have large lipsticks and toothbrushes. Otherwise great relaxed atmosphere and excellent location.

The perfect little hotel!
This hotel is absolutely wonderful! It is in an old historic building but room have all the mod cons. It is the perfect location just steps from the Duomo and many great restaurants. Brescia is a super walkable city and has lots of great museums, a castle, shopping, and things to do. Would definitely visit again and stay at Hotel Orologio next time too!

Great small hotel in the best location in Brescia
This hotel is located right in the center of Brescia which is a wonderful small Italian city well worth visiting. The rooms while not large are extremely comfortable. The front staff is welcoming and gives great tips on restaurants and anything else you need. Best of all, the included fantastic breakfast can be served to you in your room.

Molto comoda la posizione. Rumoroso perché le finestre danno sulla movida. Bagno scomodo e obsoleto.
