the hotel is very nice. nice location, clean, parking, internet, so, almost everything someone whom is in a business trip need.
food was ok, not to much variety for breakfast, but in general was ok.
Service is very good, people are friendly and ready to help.
room confort is also ok, the only thing i didnt like was the bed which was too hard.

Stayed at the Novotel Brescia 2 on the from Verona to Torino. Did not include breakfst in my booking but it was very easy to add in the morning (I picked the €7 business breakfast rather than the full buffet which comes at double that price). Apart from the customary Novotel qualities, I found it extremely easy to get there from the motorway (and back the next morning).

I LOVED this hotel. Even though I love the rustic hotel/hostels I had stayed in before, after weeks of traveling, it was nice to be comforted into the warm arms of a chain hotel. The rooms where lovely with a t.v, minibar, aircon and a very nice bathroom. Internet was free in the lobby (which were nice new imacs), there was an xbox hooked up in the lobby as well. The breakfast had a huge range for a buffet and they were kind enough to get my friend, who is gluten-intolerant, some food to eat that was more then enough to satisfy. It was so nice that we stayed indoors the whole night, ordered room service and curled up with a movie! The room service was great and the desserts where even better :D

My only issue was with the staff who had a pretty serious attitude. Initially our lights would not work and we asked them for help, to which they very sullenly helped us out with a rolled eye or two. When we arrived, which was the middle of summer with 18kg bags, they didn't offer us water or anything and didn't even let us sit down while they processes our passports.

If anything though, I am quite disappointing that I didn't stay for a second night because it was really nice. My only suggestion would be to either have a REALLY good map, inquire about a shuttle or take a taxi from the train station. We wandered around for ages before finding it which was surprisingly deceptively placed.

When we arrived there was some construction work in the lobby...but nothing to worry about. The staff was extremely helpful, the room great, the breakfast wonderful, as in all Novotels we stay in Italy (and in France). Rate is very good value. WIFI working in rooms, which is a plus (against some other Novotels). Swimming pool was top with a very helpful lifeguard lady. As we were travelling by car, not much worries to locate the place, but I may think that if you're not driving, the hotel may be a bit "outside" city center, it's actually located next to some offices skyscrapers (business area). In case you don't want to have your dinner at Novotel restaurant (which are always overpriced to our opinion), just cross the road and go to the Pizzeria La Laguna located in the shopping center (1st floor), we had a nice and good value meal.
We will definitively return to Novotel should we pass through Brescia again.
