Good sized rooms in a hotel just opposite train station. 20 min walk to cultural centre and restaurants. Suitable for 1 night. Breakfast was appalling! Individual wrapped cheese slices & pepperami style sticks. Bread more than a fee days old. €12/day to park your car.

We haven't been to a 3-star hotel for some time now but, when we were preparing for our holiday and saw that this hotel was just outside the railway station, we had to have it and, I must admit, we were not disappointed. The hotel itself was comfortable, clean and the staff extremely helpful. The city center was very close and this Medieval city is very interesting. Since Mantova is almost surrounded by water, a boat trip on the Lakes is a must.

When you come out the door of the station, you look across at the hotel. A family run place with anxious to please front desk attendants (father, son), I think the owners. Just a nice clean hotel for travelers, large lobby with bar, inside courtyard for summer. Room not fancy but comfortable and good bathroom with shower at a reasonable price including breakfast.
The main square is a good walk and easy to get lost coming back. We took a boat ride on the lake and ate outside at one of the many restaurants in a large square. Lots to see in the pedestrian areas. Busy place on a Saturday afternoon.
Hotel directed us to a restaurant across the street nearby, strictly local, popular pizza take out as well as dinners, just what we like.

We spent one night at Albergo Bianchi Stazione and got what we were looking for: a large, clean room at a good price. Located across the station, it can be hard to drive to in traffic (one of us went in while the other circled back to the parking entrance, which was an extremely tight turn in heavy traffic). We had a room facing the inner courtyard (request this--it's much quieter). There was a huge shower and good overall bathroom, and the beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was quite basic, but good cappucino. Other hotels are closer to the sights here, but it's still only about 10 mnutes on foot. It was perfectly fine for one night--nothing fancy, but what we needed.
