Our stay at Downtown B&B was fantastic. It’s in a great location for exploring the city. Luisa was very welcoming and made us feel at home, she was also very knowledgeable of the surrounding area and had great restaurant recommendations. Breakfast was delicious.

Our stay in Bassano was really nice and that's also thanks to this beautiful B&B in the city center (incredibly perfect position!). It was really relaxing to just leave our car in a free parking lot nearby (5-min. walk) and enjoy the city on foot. The house is full of art, books and music and Luisa, the host, is incredibly kind and welcoming. She's been helpful and nice with us and our kid and dog, I really thank her for everything.

The answer from the host:
Grazie per il tuo feedback! Mi impegno costantemente a migliorare l’esperienza dei miei ospiti. Mi farebbe piacere sapere quali elementi avrebbero reso la colazione più in linea con le tue aspettative, oltre alle opzioni già disponibili come caffè latte, latte e cioccolata per i più piccoli, muesli, corn flakes, yogurt, pane fresco, burro, marmellate assortite e frutta fresca di stagione. Ogni suggerimento è prezioso per me!

The B&B is located in the center of Bassano, not far from the station. The house is very beautiful and the welcome was truly warm. The breakfast was very good. Even their cat was very welcoming. If you are looking for a picturesque and comfortable place, then this is the place for you.

Grazie Chiara per la tua generosa recensione, mi spiace solo per il basso voto per la colazione, quali erano le tue aspettative ? Caffè, capuccino, diversi te speciali, latte e yogurt biologico, pane burro e marmellate biologiche e frutta fresca di stagione con servizio al tavolo è quello che offro di solito, cosa mancava? Per me è importante sapere per poter migliorare. Buona giornata

Perfect value for money for an unforgettable trip to the historic city of the Alpini. Highly recommended.

Excellent accommodation in the center of Bassano. Free parking a few minutes' walk away and the possibility of access to the ZTL for loading and unloading luggage. The Nordic room, where we slept, is quiet enough to allow for a peaceful sleep with the window open. Downtown B&B recommended also for the excellent breakfast and the hospitality of the hostess.

Luisa offered a relaxing home in an ideal location to enjoy Bassano. Her meals were delicious and authentic. The bedroom and bathroom were very spacious. Pamuk was always waiting to greet me at the door. As I departed I felt I knew the bridge, the river and the museums and squares really well like a friend.

paola

Everything went very well, from the booking (without a deposit and including the possibility of cancelling for major reasons without losing anything), to the welcome, the stay, the breakfast. The only small downside is the great confusion and noise until very late in the street under the windows of the room. It is recommended to replace the glass (or - better - the fixtures) with thermally insulated laminated glass with strong sound insulation.

stayed from 05/20/2023 to 05/21/2023

The answer from the host:
Grazie Paola della recensione. Mi spiace molto per il chiasso notturno, Bassano é fin troppo "allegra". Le finestre sono già termoisolanti stratificate, ma intendo collaborare con il locale Why Not per far rispettare gli orari di chiusura e far disperdere i chiassosi clienti. Ciao

Spacious apartment, furnished with originality. Excellent location, unbeatable. Comfortable room. Very hospitable manager. Observation: perhaps it should not be a rule that guests take off their shoes at the entrance. And slippers should be disposable.

The answer from the host:
Grazie Fabrizio per la recensione sempre utile per un miglioramento continuo. La regola sulle scarpe é a nostra tutela per una casa il più possibile igienica. Il mio impegno e invito ad uno stile di vita più sostenibile scoraggia ciabatte usa e getta. Ma sono lavate ad ogni uso.

The owner of Downtown B&B is very welcoming, satisfied all our requests, making us feel at home. He enriched our stay with very useful tips on things to visit and typical dishes to try. Highly recommended also because it is a stone's throw from the Ponte Vecchio and therefore from the historic center. Very welcoming structure, with the main characteristic of a typical roof with exposed wooden beams and well-maintained parquet flooring.

The breakfast was excellent and plentiful, also very satisfying was the hospitality of host Luisa, who provided us with all the necessary information to visit Bassano city at its best. Recommended to everyone!

I stayed here for a month for work and I had a great time. \nBeing my first time in Bassano, it was a pleasant surprise to start right here. \nLuisa is a very welcoming, fun host with a special focus on sustainability issues. \nThe peculiarity of the house is the furniture, there are hidden gems to discover in every corner. \nRegarding the location, it's very central, within the walls and a stone's throw from the Ponte degli Alpini and the main squares. \nFor those arriving by car, it can be parked in a free parking lot less than 10 minutes away on foot, it's also convenient for those arriving from the station.

Madame Balestra is extremely welcoming and helpful. She speaks French fluently. Her historical and tourist knowledge of the city and its surroundings enhanced our stay. Her architect-designed house in an old building is located in the historic center of the city. We appreciated the high standard and excellent services. Highly recommended.

Probably those who said 'hospitality is at home' were referring to the Downtown B&B and the courtesy and availability of the landlady. It was a pleasant surprise, in these even more amazing lands. If you want to be pampered almost better than at home, this is the right place.

Located in a strategic position just a stone's throw from Bassano station, even the most disoriented of visitors could easily find it. Mrs. Luisa is hospitality personified, and chatting with her warms the heart like only a good grappa can do. Her breakfast is spectacular and natural (try it to believe it). A corner of 'your home' just a stone's throw from the bridge.
