“a great hotel if like loud music playing all day and don't want to sit by or use the pool.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2010

people found this review helpful

we stayed at Club Hotel Villa Paradiso at the end of July for one week with our two university aged children and one teenager and booked it because it would allow those who wanted to explore the delights of Umbria and Tuscany to do so, but also combine this with an opportunity to unwind by the pool. How wrong we were!!!!!!!!!
The hotel ( is it a hotel, club or villa???) is positioned in a residential area. The accomodation is 3 star rather than the 4 star it claims. The rooms are clean but basic. To use the pool you have to wear a plastic swimming hat ( which you buy from the hotel)..... The pool is smaller than the pics suggest with a capacity for about 80 people. Neither the pool nor the area around it are large enough for the hundreds ( 350 at a guess) of guests staying at the hotel. The 'animators" run daytime clubs for children and teenagers in the pool all day long. Hence for much of the day, it is booked by the 'animators' and out of bounds. We were only able to use it before 10 a.m., from 12.30-1.30 or after 5.30pm and then having to stand by the pool or sit on the ground because of the lack of sun beds this was not is not our idea of a holiday. Surely the services should be available to all the guests. As the parents of 3 young adults we are used to loud music but at Club Paradiso pop music was blaring out over the pool all day long from giant speakers which made it impossible to hold any kind of a conversation ( sign language necessary to ask my husband if he would like a drink!) , read a book or relax ( even if you were lucky enough to find somewhere by the pool to sit). More like a theme park! Unable to find another hotel to accomodate our family at that time of year we eventually made the decision to use the hotel to sleep and eat and spent all day sightseeing away from it.
On a positive note the food is wholesome and you won't go hungry.

“Bustling Italian family hotel with great lake views”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 August 2010
2
people found this review helpful

My wife and I spent a wonderful week here. Our room was small but spotlessly cleaned every day, with clean sheets/towels. Lovely side lake view. Staff were all friendly and the buffet breakfast and evening meals were substantial, varied, tasty and seconds always available. Only grumble was the coffee from an automatic machine, horrible. However an expresso from the bar was only 1 euro.
Swimming pools were crowded, and sunbeds very close together, but there are quieter areas around the hotel grounds.
Passagnano is a lovely little lakeside town with several nice bars.
A ferry trip to the Isola Maggiore is a must.

“Decent Place to Stay - Not set up for business travelers”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 August 2010
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed at this hotel for 3 weeks while in town for business. I found the buffet style breakfast and dinner convienent. I thought the food was good (for buffet style) with a lot of variety available. The dining service was also good (quick plate removal, friendly staff, etc).
This hotel is packed with vacationing families. Don't stay here if you don't like seeing/hearing kids. They do have activities for them throughout the day/night which is a good thing.
The hotel is laid out on a few different levels (due to building additions). Both rooms I stayed in were on the floor which was not accessible by an elevator, so I had to drag all my luggage up 1.5 flights of stairs and there was no porter to help me. With no AC in the hallway areas, this was a very sweaty and frustrating endeavor.
The AC in the rooms was very unpredictable. It would never stay on for a consistent time. Sometimes it would shut off after 2 minutes and sometimes it would shut off in the middle of the night or stay on all night. I was never able to figure it out. The shower was TINY, but the bathroom was clean. Each room has a mini-fridge which is convienent for keeping water, etc. The TV in my room was TINY and mounted up in the corner, so some things (like text on the screen) were very hard to see.
Being a business traveler it was very annoying for me to not have internet access in my room. Access is only available in the lobby and a small price is charged. Some type of fitness center/treadmill, would have been very nice. I don't think it would be difficult to have some type of fitness room esp. in a "4 star" hotel.

Overall a decent hotel with good service, but definitely a couple annoying things.

“OK with reservations”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2010

Booked an Inghams break through Voyage Prive at £1,000 for two flying from Manchester.
Flight with Jet2.com was an hour delayed in both directions.
At Rome airport it was slightly chaotic but eventually met up with Ingham's rep Federica.
Coach trip to Passignano was fine, good careful driver (Carlo) and a comfort stop for a snack at a pizza fast food joint.
Check in uneventful

Location - an easy walk to the railway station and town.

The room - partial lake views, smallish room with one easy chair. safe, old style TV (did not use it)
Bathroom, shower only, thin plastic cups.

Hotel facilities are limited unless you lie around the pool with the families.
Hotel is very popular with Belgian families (Walloon and Flemish)

The food - In the coach the rep promised us fresh local food and great wines. Not in this hotel where it is generally pretty poor. Virtually no local fresh produce. Common denominator buffet fodder. No fresh coffee or juice at breakfast. Packed lunch is inedible. After one day we chose to eat lunch in restaurants and nibble in the evenings. Wine, beer and soft drinks on tap. Red wine was OKish.

As a base for visiting the region (we hired a car in Perugia) the hotel is fine. As a hotel experience, avoid it. Pay a bit more somewhere else.

“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 August 2010

We have just returned from a very enjoyable two week stay. All the staff without exeption were polite and eager to please. The food was absolutely fine. Three pasta dishes, two meat dishes and a fish dish every day, as well as a huge buffet of salads, cheeses and meats. I drank the white wine with my meals and was perfectly happy with it. Clean sheets every three days and towels every day if needed. The pool had plenty of sun loungers and although some people 'booked' theirs with a towel I did see a staff member collect all the towels up one day so this is discouraged. There were a number of pool activities particularly for young people which was good if that is your thing. We used the beds by the childrens pool which was quieter. Evenings were quiet but it was pleasant to sit outside and the walk to town is easy and short. Bring mosquito spray though. We had a car with us and travelled around, driving was easy and there were really beautiful places to see. For a reasonabley priced relaxed holiday I would definitely reccommend the hotel.
