Our family of 5 (2 adults and 3 teenagers stayed at the Hotel Giovanni for 3 nights in the fall of 2010. We drove down from Switzerland and used it as our base to explore Venice and the region. We had two rooms, one with two beds and one with three. Both rooms were quiet, large, comfortable and clean. Breakfast was delicious and graciously served! We also highly recommend the restaurant, also called Giovanni. The food was outstanding and once we realized that we didn't have to accept everything offered, the price was reasonable and the meal not too filling. Hotel Giovanni is conveniently located near the motor way and has free parking. A bus runs from very close to the hotel to downtown Padua and to the train station. We would happily stay there again.
