B4 Verona Leon d'Oro, Verona

I thought it was a nice place to relax and just chill away from all of your problems. And i thought it was very clean and the service was great, the people where very nice people aswell.

We stayed at the hotel between 23rd - 25th August 06. Taxi transfer from airport to hotel cost 21 Euro and took about 15 minutes although the hotel quoted us 35 Euros if they arranged for us. Nice easy book in and friendly staff who spoke good english. Room was the classic hotel room with a really nice bed and linen with a great marble bathroom with double sinks. Nice comfortable stay. Nice breakfast which cost 10 Euros each. It took about 20 minutes to walk from the hotel to the main centre where the Arena is. Unfortunately the walk involves a walk through a pedestrian subway under the railway bridge which is dark, heavily graffiti'd and smells of urine. This is right outside the hotel which doesn't seem to feel responsible for cleaning the tunnel for the good of its residents. Why should it I suppose as it doesn't own it. Apart from that the walk is pleasant enough along the mainroad into town and seems perfectly safe enough. There is a very efficient taxi service for those who don't want to walk. Our stay was very pleasant and we would go back although we would probably pay more and stay nearer the arena.. we did find a lovely hotel right next to main market square and close to some fine restaurants but the Leon D'Oro was more than adequate for our use.
