We've been really pampered at the Grand Hotel Trieste & Victoria.
It offers great relaxing facilities such as three thermal pools and fantastic beauty treatments.
Perfectly located right in the heart of the town, along the pedestrian area, so very very quiet.
Deliciuos food and good service at the restaurant (thanks Pietro, you're the number one!).
Definitely suggested!

I visited Grand Hotel Trieste & Victoria for the first time and I could consider the spa as a really high class of spa, the environment and professional therapists make it one of the best I ever seen. I tried many of their variety type of massages, as the stonetherapy, the chromotherapy and the ayurvedic techniques stemming from the East and I could say that everything was really good. The prices, cleanliness and the marvelous experiences that I have had keep me coming back. The SPA use the famous waters of Abano Terme that charged with geothermal energy,it is unique in the world and has an extraordinary therapeutic value. The our room, a Classic type, was clean and welcoming, the pools were very nice and the food really good, as the service.

A nice hotel and nice stay for 3 nights on easter eve. But some faults of this hotel better you know before you book ,
1)If you are a lover of hydromassage like me, its not a place for you. Nobody specified in their review that, in the two swimming pools outside where it's active, is automatic. There is no button where you can push and decide when u need or not. Only some hrs in the morning and some in the after noon they active it. At 6 pm they close the hydromassage system even if the swimming pools are open till 7 pm. May be all gb hotels having the same system, better to inform before. Other 5*hotels in abano where I stayed before was different.
2) in the spa I did a body massage which was not great, staff are not efficient according to other clients also. The face tratment was ok.
3)There is no turkish-bath and steam bath, only a small steam cave.
Now why it was a nice stay; the hotel is clean and rooms are spacious. Food is good and resaurant staff are nice. The gym is also ok. I had a triple bed room which had a nice view to the big park where there are 3 outside swimming pools. The 4 pools are beautiful and clean. In the evening there were couples dancing with old melodies. Clients were very elegant and well dressed. The hotel is in the centre of abano in the pedestrian area, where you can do nice shoppings of bags and shoes.
Internet connection available by payment 5 euro in an hour, they give you a lap top with wireless connection.

We wandered into Abano which is 10 kilometers inland from Padua in August 1987 and decided that compared to a lot of the tourist holiday places in Italy, and we have been to many ,it was just right fo us.Spotlessly clean very few children and loads of people of our type ,not so young and not looking for cheapness. The town is a famous spa and caters for people with age related problems. The hotel caters in house for all the medical problems that they undertake to try to alleviate The Trieste is first class and is full board so it's not for the younger types who like to look for diffferent restuarants for every meal. The restuarant is typically Modern Italian with a full waiter service and every meal if you want ,can be as many as 7 or 8 courses with a very varied menu. Ther are 4 pools one Olympic size and the others heated spa water with all the usual features Jacuzis, and a Niagara (water raining on you). There is no problem at all with beds round the pools as there is plenty of room for everyone. The rooms range from economy to super grade suites which can be very luxurious, you pays your money and takes your choice. We usually take the same middle range room only for the reason that we feel it is ours. After visiting there for the 35th time I think that I own it. Whenever we go we meet people that have been there many times before, that in itself is a good reccomendation
Whenever we go we feel that we are coming home. I have no connection with the Hotel other than money, I give and they take!!!!!!!!
