Nice 3-star hotel a few steps from the station and the city centre. Some rooms have been recently renovated - our room was clean and spacious and the bathroom had a nice shower. We’d definitely stay again!

Great place for a short stay in Pavia. The front desk staff was friendly and courteous. The hotel has parking available (for a nominal charge). The room, though small, was perfectly adequate for one person. Overall, a great experience!

The gentleman at reception was very helpful and parked our car for us in their garage. The room was quite small and needs some modernising but it was comfortable. There was a small empty fridge and it would have been nice to have had a couple of bottles of water. The hotel’s location is excellent and close to everything by walking. The breakfast was fine and all in all we were happy with out one night stay.

The hotel was walking distance from train station, though from our rooms we could hear the trains arriving and leaving the station. The staff were nice and helpful and their dining suggestions were really good. It was also a walking distance from shopping areas and restaurtants.

Hotel Excelsior-Great Central Location

Front reception staff was very helpful and kind. Great location from the Train station, just a few steps away. Central location to restaurants and stores and about 15 minutes from town square. Coffee and cold breakfast 8 euros.

Train station access makes it easy.

Location is a 10-15 min walk from most of the sights you’ll want to see. The staff was excellent The room was cozy and the bathroom was enough to do want you need. It’s across the street from the train station, so that makes it easy to arrive and to exit.

location is very handy to the train station. Also close to the main shopping areas. within two blocks, there are numerous cute cafes and bakeries. The hotel is a little bit older, but well-maintained. We found all of the staff to be extra friendly and efficient!

Excellent location

I chose the Excelsior for its proximity to the train station, as I was arriving and leaving by train and also did an excursion by train to the Certosa nearby (which I highly recommend). It also was close enough to all of the other sights to be walkable. The room was spotlessly clean. Also, the city map provided by the hotel was excellent! Tourist maps often do not label all streets, or use printing so small that they are not user-friendly, but this one was great.

A decent hotel close to city centre

In Pavia there is just a few of hotels. Therefore you must get satisfied by what you can get. Nevertheless, the comfort and the services are at a top level. Breakfast is worthy of a 4* hotels. After all it worths a stay.

Disliked: Room comfort

watch out for the cramped bathroom/shower!

hotel is okay and is probably standard for the town of Provia. it is centrally located, next to the train station and a laundry facility close by. the main street to the center is only a block away and the center is maybe 1/4 - 1/2 mile away. The main issue with the hotel is the shower/bathroom in rm 116. The shower is so small, you can barely close the door. in addition, there is absolutely no room in the shower for soap, shampoo, etc. Also, no place to hang them! So, you have to water down, stop, open the door, grab the soap/shampoo, soap up, close the door, then rinse off. Bad design. Having one or two hooks from which to hand your toiletries would have been a blessing. Other rooms may not have this issue so check to be sure.

A kettle/coffee machine in the room would have beenf appreciated. At the very least a complementary coffee - this is one of the only hotels I've been to that don't offer coffee/tea in the room.
