Review of Hotel Ariosto
3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 15 May 2014
It is situated right in the historical center of Reggio. You can easily walk to restaurants, bars and piazzas. The staff is very nice and accommodating. The rooms are inexpensive but you get what you pay for: a tiny shower with a shower curtain that sticks to your back and mold on the ceiling, a rotary phone, a stamp size tv, e.t.c. It definitely needs some remodeling. If you are driving, parking can be a nightmare, and the Daedalus of one way streets can make it frustrating for you to get there. Register your car at the reception as soon as you get there to avoid a ticket for entering the downtown area without a permit.

Quick visit for concert locally. Hotel very small and could do with a bit of decorating but, all in all, very good value for money. Position could not have been better for shops and theatres. The staff were lovely, very helpful and charming. The room was a fair size, could have done with some decorating but clean. The bathroom was tiny as was the shower but the shower had very good pressure and served its purpose.

Before going I checked out the hotel on Tripadvisor and saw a review about the hotel smelling of stale tobacco and smoke. Being non smokers the review really put me off and I even considered cancelling so was delighted to find that this was definitely not the case.

This is a very basic 2-star hotel which gives excellent value for money. The hotel is spotless, the rooms are basic, but comfortable. The staff are efficient and friendly. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the location is good and I can't see that you could get better value for money anywhere else in Reggio Emilia. We would definitely stay there again.

We loved Reggio Emilia! This hotel was tiny but good. The room was as we expected and the bathroom was small but fine. We were given a key for the side door so that we could come and go as we wanted even after the front door was locked. Breakfast was included in the price and was very tasty. The location was handy to the train station, shops and a great pizzeria.
