The Hotel San Donato is in a great location within easy walking distance to the main square. The staff were freindly and helpful and the hotel was very clean throughout, Breakfast was excellent and I would recommend " Caffe Zamboni" which is just a few steps away for lunch or light snack. Our room on the second floor at the... more

Good central Hotel short walk from main square, pleasant staff ,clean & comfortable very pleasant bar & roof terrace, restaurants within walking distance. The only problem was poor lighting in the bedroom and the sound proofing, because of the ceramic floor could hear a lot of noise in the room above.( choose a room on the top floor.) more

The staff at this hotel were very friendly and welcoming. Martina, Mariana and Michele were at the front desk, always smiling with your key ready to hand to you. One warning...don't use their plastic laundry bag to put your dirty clothes in unless you WANT them laundered. We did and the next day and 52 Euros later, we had clean... more

Fantastic location - a couple of minutes walk from the main centre, two towers, piazza maggiore, restaurants etc. Hotel very clean, staff extremely helpful (spoke reasonable english). Breakfast - plenty of choice to suit all, cooked breakfast was scrambled egg, bacon and sliced tomatoes. Suggest eating this on the sun terrace and watch the world go by. Rooms were very... more

I don’t know if we were unlucky, but the room was pretty poor. A huge amount of money needs to be spent to bring the rooms from the 1970’s when they were last refurbished to the present day. A huge disappointment that it had a tiny telly (television to you Americans!!) no bath an ancient shower that did not work... more

My wife and I spent 4 days at the San Donato (April7th - April 11th) and found the hotel to be a great location, clean, comfortable, with the best breakfast we have had in our many trips to Europe. All of the paled in comparison to the staff. They were all spectacular. The maid, the bar/restaurant staff and the front... more

After reading other reviews about this hotel i was very weary about booking it, but thought if it's in the centre i will save a fortune on taxi's etc. I was very pleasantly surprised the hotel was beautiful, our room was spotless and very spacious with a huge bathroom with power shower! The breakfast was basic but you wouldnt starve.... more

Unlike other reviewers, my husband and I had a very pleasant stay at Hotel San Donato. It´s located on a historical building inside the historical city center (taxis and cars need authorization to drive there). The terrace on the second floor has a beautiful view of rooftops and the two towers, especially on the sunset(photo). Our room was spacious and... more

The location of San Donato was perfection itself. The staff was very friendly,and helpful. The breakfast was nice. i loved the terrace-having a caffe' or prosecco,listening to churchbells...but i could never go back: the nightly noise from rowdy crowd on street kept me from even one good night's rest. blaring music,that even ear plugs didn't drown out..it was just too... more

This hotel is a fairly good place in a large business-oriented city. However, a room at the back is a definite must -- even though the rooms seem to be somewhat small. The hotel is under external renovation at the front. As well, there is a club called Transylavania in one corner at the front of the hotel -- catering... more
