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!

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.

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!

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.

No frills hotel

Although convenient for the train station, it was farther from town than I realized. The beds were very uncomfortable, so I did not sleep well. Also, the shower had very little water pressure. The 5€ breakfast was what you’d expect for the price.

It is a 3* hotel (when I booked through expedia, it is supposed to be 4*). The room is very small and too hot even at night.

False advertisement

On the ad it says that kids stay free without confirming the age. My daughter is 4 and when we reached there, first the receptionist asked me my daughters age and then said up to the age of 3 is free and charged me €20 more. There was no safe parking available so I had to park in a paid lot and then walk. It wasn’t a pleasant experience checking in at 11:30 at night.

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.
