Hey from Adelina

Member since September 2007 | 75,667 hits

Our home is situated along a beautiful tree-lined avenue of century-old linden trees that promote restful sleep.

In our garden, surrounded by the ancient walls of the city of Padua, we serve breakfast under the gazebo in the summer. In the evening, guests can enjoy a nice glass of wine with pizza, either privately or in the company of Mrs. Adelina and Pancrazio.

Since retiring from work, we have chosen to share the spaces of our lovely home by welcoming a variety of guests from around the world.

A fantastic experience.

Adelina and Pancrazio.

I stumbled upon this B&B by chance, I was looking for an affordable place after returning 30 years later to the city where I studied. I never thought I would find two people, the owners, so available and friendly. It felt like home, attentive to the needs of the guests and, above all, treated like family. Adelina is a wonderful lady, a great house mom. I spent 3 wonderful days, the house was clean and welcoming with a beautiful garden, I fell in love with the plants in the air. I highly recommend it, it is not far from the center and, since I had problems with a foot, they even lent me their bicycle. A dive into the past when, as a student, it was my only means of transport. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to these two wonderful people.

Beautiful experience, the structure is in a strategic position, a stone's throw from the Basilica of the Saint and Prato della Valle. In a quarter of an hour you can reach the center on foot. Excellent hospitality from the hosts, who make you feel comfortable and shower you with kindness! Highly recommended.

massimino

I stayed for four nights in the orange room, since the booking there has been a very good communication with Adelina and Pancrazio, always available and friendly. Upon arrival, I was greeted by Mr. Pancrazio and immediately felt a sense of family, something very rare in other B&Bs. His wife Adelina is also very friendly and chatting with them is really like dealing with two uncles and they never make you feel out of place. The location is a stone's throw from San Giustina and a few meters from Prato della Valle with Despar and Pam supermarkets 5 minutes away but I was surprised by the room, spacious, welcoming, fragrant and very nice. If I were to return to Padua or if a friend were to ask me where to stay, I would definitely recommend this property!

Great location, 2 minutes from Prato della Valle. Easy to get there by car or by tram from the train station. You feel like at home in the house. The hosts are warm and friendly, the breakfast is good and abundant, accompanied by classical music and the calming smell of incense. We stayed in 2 rooms which were both big, clean and with en suite bathrooms. I highly recommend it.

marc

Given the high occupancy rate, we were accommodated at the location on Via Carducci. I would have preferred not to give a rating. I assume it is significantly inferior to Via Michele San Micheli. The owners were very kind and helpful, but our room communicated through doors with the kitchen and dining room, hence noise from the arrival of other guests (late at night, early in the morning, even at night). Noisy beds. We informed the owner (I repeat, very kind) who said he would improve that. Breakfast: actually just unlimited coffee (to make yourself) and packaged industrial biscuits or brioches... so not really delighted!

Beautiful place, quiet, close to the Basilica of Saint Anthony and the beautiful botanical garden, but above all tidy and clean, room included. The managers are very hospitable, kind, and helpful; as soon as we arrived, they advised us on how to get around and what to see in the city. The breakfast is plentiful and very good. It's a shame we only stayed for two days. They deserve the highest rating.

Unfortunately, we could only stay one night; excellent welcome, very close to the Basilica of Al Santo and the historic center, private parking, clean and tidy rooms, breakfast in the garden with relaxing background music, room full of beautiful books, with, for us, pleasant Christian religious symbols; the owner, very kind and friendly, is certainly a person with refined tastes. To go back!

vanessa

I recently stayed at the B&B Al Santo, chosen especially for the excellent reviews read here and its location. Nothing to say about the managers who, on the contrary, were very kind and accommodating. The structure overall looks good, although it might need some maintenance work in my opinion. Perhaps, the only thing I can point out is this: there was perhaps too much "personality" in the various rooms. Excessive religious references and paintings, too many family photos of the managers in the rooms, all things that made me a bit uncomfortable.

We stayed 6 nights at Adelina & Pancrazio's and felt very comfortable. The two are super nice, accommodating, and eager to make everyone feel at home with them. That was also the case for us - we were very satisfied and felt like part of the family.\n\nWhether it's the offered bike, the scooter, or the constantly changing small attentions during breakfast, or just chatting with Adelina in the kitchen or with Pancrazio in the evening - it's simply a nice, personal accommodation with a family atmosphere and the opportunity to speak a lot of Italian.. we will gladly come back!

The bed and breakfast is very close to Prato della Valle, the Botanical Garden, and the Basilica of the Saint, and the entire historic center can be easily reached on foot. The street it faces is tree-lined, and relatively easy to park for free. The room we stayed in is spacious, and the bathroom is adjacent but in any case for private use, new, and very clean. Special mention to Adelina and Pancrazio, who made us feel truly at home, we will recommend everyone to turn to them for stays in Padua, and we hope to return ourselves one day.

The Al Santo B&B is located in a really convenient position, very close to Prato della Valle and therefore the city center is within walking distance with a simple stroll. It is also situated on a one-way street with little traffic. There is the possibility to park inside the private courtyard, but we only partially took advantage of this opportunity because we found parking literally outside the door.\n\nThe Al Santo B&B is actually a two-story villa (unfortunately lacking a clear indication/sign outside). Our room was the blue one, with a private bathroom. The room was very clean, but the bathroom was rather old and neglected, it deserves some fixing.\n\nGood and varied breakfast. The collaborator of the owners was extremely helpful and very courteous.
