Best Grumolo delle Abbadesse Hotels

My coworker and I stayed at Hotel Viest this past September and October for a 5 night stay while working nearby. Although conveniently located near where we were working, it wouldn’t be the first place I’d recommend staying. The hotel itself is clean but likely was at it prime a couple of decades ago. It’s due for some serious modernization. My room was clean but smelled of many a smoker in past stays. It’s considered non-smoking but that clearly has been ignored. The room is also very dark which kind of sets the whole mood of the room. Wi-Fi exists but is very slow. Despite the “welcome” sign (in many languages) when you first walk in the hotel, you are likely not going to be hearing that lovely sentiment from any of the staff throughout your stay. In fact, I can’t think of one time that the front office staff even acknowledged us, much less said greeted us, as we came in past the desk to our rooms each night after work. Speaking of the front desk, the whole area looks more like a real estate office than a hotel guest counter. Lot’s of exposed office equipment, file folders and other office products. I didn’t get to use the pool, but it looked nice enough. Perhaps if I had been there in the warmer summer months, I would have given it a splash. The gym…exists but it’s minimally equipped. That said, I did manage to get my heart rate up in an effort to burn off a few pizza calories. All in all, Viest Vicenza is…fine.

I stayed at Hotel Victoria on my way out of Vicenza for 5 nights in November 2021. What an impressive hotel! Plenty of free parking on arrival, the lobby was large, super clean, and modern with plenty of seating. I booked a single room but was pleasantly surprised at how large the bed and room were. The bathroom was spotless and spacious. Given all of this information, the part I was most appreciative of was the staff. From the moment I checked in they were polite, attentive, and helpful. I was assisted several times over the 5 days, using their front desk printing services, borrowing the desk clerk for translation assistance, and grabbing a drink at the bar where the reception staff doubled as the bartender! Their breakfast was phenomenal! It was very extensive inclusive of hot and cold menu items, fresh fruits, yogurt, cheese, meats and all the Italian coffee you want and the breakfast staff was EXCELLENT! When I arrived in Vicenza, I stayed at another local hotel that was so awful I left after 2 days, I wish I would have known about this hotel!! Overall, my stay was outstanding, and I would highly recommend this hotel to ANYONE coming into Vicenza. It’s about a 6-minute drive to Caserma Ederle and MUCH better than other hotels that may closer. I would give them 10-stars if I could; exceptional hotel!

The room is relatively small and upgraded with a balcony. Rich breakfast and easy parking

I stayed for work one night in April. I could check at 23:00 . Single room spacious and well-treated Clean and ordered I would say a great point for a work stop in Vicenza. I could book the same day on the hotel's website at a price that is advantageous.

I have stayed here twice, once in 2015, and one recently. I love the location as I can easily walk downtown. The room, I had the last time was a junior suite. Quite spacious room and bathroom. The shower had great water pressure and was large. The Beds are a bit firm which is probably an understatement, they were Fred Flintstone hard. However, even with them being hard I slept very well. The breakfast and the staff are where this hotel really shines. The staff is very attentive and friendly. The breakfast has a lot of good options. The parking can be a bit challenging but I expect that most places that are close to the city center.

It’s a great hotel, friendly staff, great breakfast (soft scrambled eggs), excellent location and nice rooms. There are many excellent restaurants Right next door or across the street…..the ticket office is just a block away…. You will not be disappointed with your stay
